On 12/22/2024 kinzie fagerstrom had this to say:
Went in this weekend and it was obvious the animals are well taken care of and prices are extremely fair. Had more selection of animals than any other pet store in the area. Will definitely be back soon!

This is a very cool store! We dropped in today and we were given an amazing tour from the best 7 year old tour guide! You can instantly tell that this is more than just a business for the shops owners! They are ready to share their knowledge and passion for each animal in the store. The animal ambassadors are really amazing to interact with. Our 6 year old had an incredible time interacting with all of the many Wild Things! Highly recommended checking it out!

Meet Stella. She’s the ambassador for the wild things pet shop in Ankeny. She was such a delight to meet and interact with. If you’ve never been to this cute pet shop, I highly recommend going! It’s like a childhood dream come true. I met the sister who is a part owner and she was so knowledgeable and sweet all on her own 💓 1000/10 recommend

On 10/2/2024 Tommy Sr. Montenguise had this to say:
A simple place for other pets needs not so much for tropical fish but very kind and helpful as to get to where I needed to solve my issue.
