Our Story
Paleo Pet Goods is a natural, independent, pet nutrition and pet sitting business focusing on cats and dogs. In 2006, one of the largest pet food recalls occurred causing a drastic shift in pet nutrition. Due to the devastating results of this recall and the apparent need for reputable and reliable people in pet nutrition, Christine Dawson, Managing Owner and Pet Nutrition Advocate, opened Paleo Pet Goods. Christine realized that not only was education desperately needed in the community regarding natural pet nutrition, but the availability of species-appropriate diets was needed as well. Since then, we strive to focus on stocking our shelves with species-appropriate foods that are made by small, family owned manufacturers based in North America (USA and Canada). Additionally, not a single brand offered at Paleo Pet Goods sources their ingredients from China or any other undesirable location.
Over the last 10 years, Paleo Pet Goods has grown to not only provide in-store product and consulting availability, but also now has a fully stocked and functional online store for the convenience of our customers. Our team of experienced pet sitters and Pet Nutrition Advocates are ready to help you with your questions about what foods are really best for your dog or cat.
Natural dog and cat food brands and other natural brands that we carry include but are not limited to: Acana, Orijen, Earth Animal, Elevate, First Mate, Fromm, Koha, Nature's Logic, Northwest Naturals, One Fur All Pet House, Primal, Skout's Honor, Stella & Chewy's, Steve's, Small Batch, Tucker's, Weruva, Wondercide, Vital Essentials, premade raw brands and many other brands that focus on producing quality, natural dog and cat foods.
