    Great place to shop for all your pets needs. The staff is very friendly helpful and very knowledgeable.

    I like this store. I will say its a bit on the pricey side, but what I appreciate about Creature Comforts the stuff they sell seems to be pretty good quality. I will say I really only looked at the dog stuff, but even on the budget end of their inventory, treats, food, collars, toys, beds, etc. it wasnt junk like some of the chain pet supplies places will sell you. Definitely glad to have this store in town.

    I went in today needing a few things for my tank. My 18 month old was NOT having any part in it. The man who helped me today, Audrey, was fantastic. Seeing the struggle that ensued throughout the store with my daughter he helped me get what I needed (along with providing excellent education on a pet I got at a competitors store). This man went as far as to even helped me out to my car. Thank you Audrey.

    Has a good selection for pups. Took my foster dog for a jacket bc of the snow. One of the workers who has experience with rescues found a cozy coat for him that fit on the 1st try and a collar that was comfortable for him. Turns out my pup has expensive taste with the fish treats.So helpful and a good selection.

    We bought four gorgeous healthy corn snakes from creature comforts three months ago. Creature comforts employees are always helpful, insightful and supportive whenever we’ve had problems or questions. Today Anthony and two other employees helped me retrieve my snake and went above and beyond! I brought my 40 gallon tank into the store because my itty bitty corn snake found an itty bitty crevice within the tank and has been camping out there for the last three weeks. They helped problem solve how to get her out and together we were able to retrieve her. They even caulked up the area so she’s not able to do it again. I cannot express how relieved I am and how thankful I am for their willingness to help. It’s certainly a comfort to know as a pet owner we can ask them anything.

    I love this store so much. Its so much fun to take my little girl there with my family and enjoy a nice aquarium in the southern tier. It is a store but the way its set up is that you can take your little ones there. Super fun activity in the winter time.

    We went Creature Comforts to get a few fish for my youngest son. The staff was knowledgeable and helped us pick out the best fish for the setup that we have. They also made sure we had everything we needed to set up the tank and take care of the fish. Great locally owned pet store.

  • Review 8 (2024-07-24 - Rating: 5)

    Lots of knowledgeable staff. A great variety of pet supplies. They have a pet food program where you buy so many bags of dog food they give you some kind of discount.A new sign was just installed outside. The small parking lot can get tricky to maneuver on weekends and after 4 pm.

  • Review 9 (2024-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Not Certain who enjoys patronizing this exceptionally amazing establishment, me or LiL F-Stik JR.... Hes my pup n Best friend as I swore if never get any other animals due to the heart breaking time I went through w my last pack almost 10 yrs ago passing . But here I am visiting Creature Comfort at least 3 times a week on a slow week and seemingly paying more for this Dog to be satisfied than I did to put The youngins through school. Rather it be a quality bone 🦴 Bigger than my forearm w Knuckles on the end or simple raw Hyde or boxed mini milk bone type this is the place. Along w all other per supplies and the top of the line dog food which Ive been relying on them for about 22 yrs off and on this is ur place. They allow you to bring your pets in the store and they also have a broad selection of animals in need of forever homes. F-Sticks favorite aspect Id say aside from the delicious feast he thoroughly enjoys each time we go in there but more so later when we arrive back home.... Friendly staff and decent prices, anything I may pay a bit more for is made up for by my lack of commuting to vestal...... So I mean if u are in the area stop in n check em out..... Even if u dont have any pets, that could easily change as soon as u meet their selection. (Esp if u bring ur kids😉) I almost forgot they host vaccination clinics every now and then as well as carry most home remedy and commercial needs when speaking about animal medical goods and vaccines.

  • Review 12 (2024-07-26 - Rating: 5)

    My go to neighborhood pet shop for any of my dogs needs. Local, family owned, huge inventory, helpful staff - all you need to know. Another upside my unfriendly dog actually loves the staff at the store.

  • Review 13 (2024-09-18 - Rating: 5)

    Im 76 years young now. And somehow surviving nearly 8 decades and KNOWING more than yesterday every morning is a freaking great day to live and if today is the day to find both feet in Doggie Heaven or Birdie Heaven or Deep Blue Sea Fishy Heaven, or Kitty Heaven or in Hell with ALL my friends all I can say is what a trip and a half getting there! And if I could Id do it 100 million incarnations more just to play with my childhoods best friend Princess who my mom and 8 brothers and sisters had to agonizingly put down while I was off being a Freshman in college.And to watch my first pet Timmy, a blue parakeet I got for my 5th birthday day continue flying all over Eden and who my poor already overworked mom almost everyday except for about 4 or 2 cleaned the bottom of his cahe. Changed his water and food until one horrible morning I found Timmy laying on the bottom of his cage only for my 5 year old brother to convince me beyond all reason that Timmy was sleeping until my mom came downstairs and tried as best and as kindly as she could that Timmy was in Birdie Heaven and that it was going to be longer than a few years before I would be seeing him again. And I cried and cried until we buried him and I said, See ya soon Timmy.Over the many many many decades and years I have had 100s of pets from tiny little mice to a white rat to countless fresh water fishes all named Oscar and a couple of getting older parakeets who died within a few days of each other to stray cats with kittens and stray dogs and who I learned before I even had them that if they got sick or hurt or ran away or died it wasnt who I bought them from fault it was because I screwed up big time.On the other hand you can always pray to St Frances or St Jude to do something about Ick and all the variants of COVID and all the curious forms of hideous mutations in Nature and worse caused by the trillion dollar International Military Industrial Banking Empire bottomless budget stolen from the bottom 98.76899879%. But seriously if thats the will of a God of Unbearable Love I swear Im going to lead Satanic Lucifer and all the bad angels to break into Paradise from the backdoor just so anyone who wants EXCEPT for the divine ass kisses to kick all the Divine Ass we feel like.Cause the stars whispered to me 100 years ago or a 100 years from now that that is exactly what Venus, Cupid, Mars and Gia are PRAYING we will ALL do! Or something! Anything like that!

  • Review 14 (2024-10-15 - Rating: 4)

    Its one of the few pet stores left, always have the stuff you need, can be expensive, but not unreasonable. Im pretty sure they have stuff for every budget, but dog food has become really expensive.

  • Review 15 (2022-08-09 - Rating: 5)

    The store with the most pet choices in the area. I especially love the aqua zone!

  • Review 16 (2024-08-01 - Rating: 5)

    Love this hometown store. Much varieties. No hassle returns. Fair prices.The employees are never hesitant to help.One employee- I hope I have your name right-MaryAnna has giving us advice over the years and shared stories of her dogs in similar situations to ours. Wonderful woman!

  • Review 17 (2021-02-11 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely satisfied with my service here. We got two rats, but as first time rat owners, we were apprehensive about exactly what to get. The staff was lovely and more than helpful in making sure we got exactly the right cage, food, bedding, and toys.

  • Review 18 (2022-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    Lots of aquarium Fish, snakes & Rodents.Good selection of goods. A little expensive. Has that down home kind of feel. Staff are super friendly.Able to get healthy wet food + snacks. Definitely visit agian.

  • Review 19 (2020-05-09 - Rating: 5)

    I got my pet snake from Creature comforts, and I am very pleasantly satisfied with how they have been with their customer service! Especially during the whole COVID pandemic, the employees are very nice, and willing to help out in any way they can. I started out with a 10 gallon tank for my pet, and after almost a month of having my pet snake, and a visit or two to the store, I upgraded her tank to a 30 gallon tank with a stand, and some more accessories and an employee was VERY helpful with me getting what I needed to pull the new set together.

  • Review 22 (2019-12-27 - Rating: 5)

    An amazing pet store with a huge fish selection. Whether you are looking for salt or freshwater fish, they have you covered. Prices are good too.

  • Review 23 (2020-08-19 - Rating: 5)

    Best selection in town. They have tons to choose from. They employ quite a few local people. Although their prices are higher than some big box stores, I prefer to shop here because they create more local jobs than the corporate pet supply stores.

  • Review 24 (2024-09-15 - Rating: 5)

    Staff is super knowledgeable and helpful. The animals are all happy and well cared for!

  • Review 25 (2024-02-23 - Rating: 5)

    Our fish was dying so we went to get our water tested and it turned out perfect. We bought a new heater and filter and the fish seems to be thriving. Creature Comforts really took care of us and made sure we had what we needed for our aquarium. We get our new fish on Wednesday when they get new stock. Thank you Creature Comforts

    They have any type of animal you can think of. As well as an extensive variety of fish.

  • Review 33 (2023-04-26 - Rating: 5)

    Staff is so friendly and well informed about products. Stock is well kept and offered with the pets best interests and health in mind. Been going there for 14 years, never disappointed. Plus they often have adoption, benefits and special events for local organizations. Preferred over other franchise stores. Worth the trip!

  • Review 34 (2023-08-20 - Rating: 4)

    Normally, the store is very good. But our beta fish we bought over three years ago and was healthy and ended up passing away. Which is fine. Went there about three weeks ago and bought a $30 blue mustard beta fish. It was dead within three weeks and there is nothing they will do because they only guarantee a seven day health guarantee. They really need to make that a little longer. Because now my daughter is incredibly upset that she spent $30 of her money to buy a beautiful fish to die in three weeks

    Cant recommend this store enough!! Employees are knowledgeable, helped me pick out a few different foods ranging thru all price points for my little dog that has pancreatitis and has severe attacks. Good assortment of small pets/birds and fish which all seem to be very well taken care of in store. They have EVERYTHING, even obscure pet supplements I thought I could only find online

  • Review 40 (2023-03-21 - Rating: 5)

    Great store. Knowledgeable staff. Clean and all sorts of products for Cats, Dogs, fish and pet rodents. Probably others too but I was on a time schedule and did not get through the whole store. I will definitely return for things I need that are not available in my small town 20 minutes away.

  • Review 45 (2023-02-12 - Rating: 5)

    I went to creature comforts because the local pet store in cortland closed and the other one has poor quality fish. I was very impressed by the huge selection of fish with a huge variety of unique fish. I was also impressed by the fact that the tanks were healthy and no dead fish. Fish were a bit expensive but I was ok with the prices due to being so impressed with the health of the animals

  • Review 46 (2023-05-16 - Rating: 4)

    Very versatile pet shop. Their selection for dogs is phenomenal. Stopped by on way back from a mini vacation and found a nice toy and bag of treats for our doggo. Staff are super friendly and heloful.

  • Review 49 (2022-10-16 - Rating: 5)

    Really like this place. They are a bit expensive, but everything is now a days. I was going to give 4 stars because sometimes they dont have some specialized fish food that I need . However the expertise the staff has certainly outweighs the lack of a product. I call 1st just to check. Seems that since pandemic, many products are hit or miss these days..

    Super helpful, especially when I couldnt remember which type of dog food I was using! They carried it to the car for me, which was great since I was obviously having a not so good day. Well staffed, and the variety of products far surpasses the big box stores, even for non food items. The prices are the same if not better than chewy, on most items. I looked specifically at the seresto collar. Great variety of exotic pet stuff.

  • Review 52 (2023-04-19 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 58 (2020-10-18 - Rating: 5)

    I have never been more pleased with a pet store! I recently started a salt water tank with the help of some of the staff. Not only did they sit and listen to me and talk, they helped me pick out exactly what I needed to get started. When I came back to have my water tested to get my first fish Tom one of the employees was sooo very helpful in showing us the best starter fish to get and what NOT to get! Even when I went back a day later trying to get more he assured me the ones I bought were enough for now until the tank goes through it’s full cycle :) thanks again to the AMAZING customer service, very very friendly staff highly recommend and I will only be going to creature comforts for all my fish and or pet needs!! We were also carefully listened to and talked to about the process of our tank we have learned so much even how to feed our anemone krill shrimp and it’s awesome! So pleased with all the staff at creature comforts they are the best and wouldn’t recommend anyone else!

  • Review 59 (2022-05-05 - Rating: 5)

    The staff there is very friendly and helpful some of them arent knowledgeable about care for certain pets and at times feel they try to sell things more than get your pet the proper care. They do have a wonderful manager who is the most kindest person ever. Definitely one of my favorite go to pet stores in my area.

  • Review 60 (2019-06-07 - Rating: 4)

    Everything is more pricey than most other stores! I didnt find what I was looking for but the staff is super helpful and friendly. Willing to help with any questions or suggest options! Willing to help carry any items to your car with not a problem. There fish collection is amazing and they care for every animal that walks through their doors!

  • Review 61 (2018-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Always a pleasure visiting this local gem. The staff is very friendly and consistent with their posted hours. The shelves are fully stocked 99% of the time and a variety of brands ever-present. Plenty of off street parking is easily accessible. Every team member is familiar with effective communication and if you have special needs they quickly get you to the right person. Probably one of the best businesses in Broome County.

  • Review 62 (2020-06-07 - Rating: 5)

    I always get treated extremely well at Creature Comforts. I usually call ahead, pay over the phone, and they gladly hold my purchases until I get there. I live a half an hour away, in a small town that doesnt carry anything I need for my Axolotls , and fish.The Store is CLEAN CLEAN!!!People enjoy the very large selection of different foods and supplies for Dogs, Cats, and your other furry friends.The Staff is Amazing! Very Polite and knowledgeable.So for your next bag of kibble for your dog, or litter for your Cat, take a trip to Creature Comforts for all your pet needs and wants.You will not regret!!! :)

  • Review 63 (2017-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    Employees were super friendly and helpful. Lots of different creatures and critters to look at. Tons of different fish. Have all the great food brands and they sell the cans but the 12 pack which is awesome and hard to find at bigger stores. Bring your pets in because they love to spoil them!

  • Review 64 (2019-02-16 - Rating: 5)

    One of the best pet stores in the area. Creature comforts is always clean and well maintained. The selection and price is unlike any other pet store in the area. They have salt water and fresh water fish in a amazing displays. The staff have great knowledge also.

    I have a love hate relationship with this place. Ive had multiple mice issues and I have purchased all my snakes from them but my last snake was in rough shape. It was a little sad. Im currently trying to get him in better shape. There arent many options in this area for pet stores that cater to snakes. I will say the employees there are always pleasant and helpful.

    I bought 4 guinea pigs from them 2 females for myself and 2 as gifts and unlike petsmart these pigs were healthy from the day I got them unfortunately the one from pet smart died after 5 months. Ive never had issues with rude or mean staff however they can be a bit condescending at times and will try to make you feel dumb and or buy things you dont need. Trust your reaserch more than a pet shop employee.

  • Review 68 (2021-08-29 - Rating: 5)

    This is the place to go for aquarium needs, fish, supplies for fish, cats, critters. Purchased a large aquarium that was delivered and set up. Purchased more goldfish and tropical fish for the small tanks we already had. We also had our tank water tested there, making sure our tanks were up to speed with ph levels.Costumer Service: 5/5. We spent at least 45 minutes in the store and did not see any employee on cell phones. Not one. They were doing their jobs. Any questions with types of fish to put in same tank were knowledgeably answered. Headed back for more fish this afternoon!

  • Review 82 (2016-06-17 - Rating: 5)

    This is a seriously great pet store. Its small and privately owned, so dont expect Pet Smart, but their animals are clearly better cared for and happier than any big store (and there is a surprising collection). Id rather source a pet from here than anywhere else in Binghamton. And of course, the staff are wonderful, helpful, and very knowledgeable.

    Very nice store, clean and friendly, they do photography events throughout the year for shelter donations. They have a wide variety of pet foods and toys. Only negative is there freshwater fish seem to be more on the pricey side compared to other stores.

  • Review 85 (2018-12-10 - Rating: 4)

    Know what to expect before you go. This definitely is not meant to be an exotic pet store, but it will likely meet your needs and expectations if all youre looking for is a healthy selection of common pet supplies.The staff are welcoming and the fish selection is broad, but those are the two strongest points. While the fish selection was impressive, you cant expect to find animals in the right tanks. The labeling isnt always accurate, and you might find a fish a few tanks down instead of where the label is. That leads to a game of What is that fish, where youre trying to look up fish species on your phone to figure out whether you actually can accommodate that nifty-looking animal in your aquarium. One thing I enjoyed was seeing the more expensive aquarium models set up and in operation with living creatures inside them.The reptile selection leaves something to be desired. While they had different morphs of python, the variety of reptile species was less than you might see in a chain pet store. The reptile supplies were also somewhat lacking, though they had a considerable stock of what items they did have. (Notably, they had a halogen bulb I wanted that didnt fit any of the domes/hoods available, that I could find.)Likewise, the bird and rodent selection is small and comparable to a chain store. The incubators for baby parrots implied this might not always be the case, but they were empty when I visited and I cant comment on their authenticity or use.As many other people have pointed out, the store is clean and the staff are very welcoming. No less than three people offered my boyfriend and I assistance while we shopped. If we hadnt driven more than an hour in the hopes of seeing a decent selection of reptiles, I likely would have been less disappointed in the experience. If you are shopping for cats, dogs, and some other very common pets, you can expect a selection that is at LEAST on par with a chain pet store, if not better. The fish selection will likely surpass what you would see in a chain pet store, but all other animal selections (and their supplies) may leave you slightly disappointed.

    They have just about anything you need for your pets. Staff is helpful. Everyone is very nice.

    This store is amazing. They have everything we need for our cats and dog. Every time I come in I have to see the fish and the baby parrots. I keep forgetting to pick up a new chew toy and harness for our puppers, but theres always next time.

  • Review 88 (2017-09-23 - Rating: 5)

    I have been coming to this store for about one year now. Ive purchased all my fish and most of my fish supplies from the store. The fish staff are generally knowledgable yet, always busy and sometimes are difficult to get a good conversation out of. Not their fault, its just a busy place. If you can get there when its dead, youll find they will talk to you about the animals until they need to help a customer.As far as prices go, I find they are on par with other chain stores. Unfortunately no one can come close to Amazon, but I am certainly someone who loves instant gratification so I dont usually go to Amazon unless its a huge price difference.I would commend Steve for his Fishy knowledge, and I will be going to this store for years to come.

    Best Petshop in the Area. This is my go-to pet store if i have the time to get out to it. The selection of foods, aquarium supplies and terrarium supplies is great. The frequent buyer program has been a main reason why i return again and again. When i get a free flat of cat food cans... thats 40$ saved. The staff is almost overzealous in helping you. I inquired about an uncommon item... the manager was in earshot and he immediately ordered 3 of the item. I do not buy live animals from pet shops, but this place has the best selection for supplies. their reptile/terrarium supplies are among the most varied and best in the area.

    Great place for fish. Service leaves a lot,to be desired but once you finally get someone to help you, they are very knowledgeable and extremely helpful......they have many, many varieties of fish, and any supplies you might want. Ive purchased several dozen fish, and will always go there first.....

    I am so very blessed that Broome county has a pet store like this. Reason 1 is because the team work is awesome and very welcome, helpful too. Reason 2 is my cat 🐈 food is very pricey living on a fixed budget like most of us are with this COVID going on.well let me get back to the point of why reason 2 is important to all of us who have Dogs and Cats. Its you buy food well the tenth bag is free !!!❤️🐈🐈‍⬛🐩🐕🦮🐕‍🦺 . Cant bet that. I pay every monthly$120 so that tenth bag is awesome saves me $37.53. Creatures Comfort is awesome!!!

  • Review 100 (2019-10-22 - Rating: 5)

    I cant say enough about this place when it comes to how they care about animals and more than that Animal Care. We have several rescue animals they have their own special needs occasionally and I can get a little expensive because what you provide for one you might not be able to provide for the other because of diet or health conditions. The staff is always willing to help very friendly never seen too busy to stop what theyre doing in order to help. Sure we could go to the grocery store or big-box store and maybe occasionally get something for a few cents cheaper but why? Creature Comforts will take care of anything and everything that you need regarding your pet and if they dont have it on the Shelf youll get it for you. You never have to load your car by yourself youre buying large bags of dog food or even if youre buying a new cat tree theres always somebody there to help you when youre checking out take things to your car for you and they do things with a smile Pleasant I get along well even willing to joke and laugh about the weather. If youve never shopped here before youll never shop anywhere else for your pet needs once you come here for the first time

  • Review 101 (2018-12-11 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely the best pet store in the area! They have such a wide selection of both animals and supplies. Not to mention their staff is incredibly helpful and knowledgable. It is obvious that they care about their animals and that they want them to go to responsible, informed pet owners. When we came in looking to set up a paludarium for our new fiddler crabs, the staff was so helpful in not just recommending filters, substrate, food, etc., but also provided great advice about care. We had such a positive and fun experience that we are now making plans to set up an aquarium. Even though Petco is closer to us, we will choose Creature Comforts every time!

  • Review 109 (2018-10-23 - Rating: 5)

    I’ve been coming here for years and the staff is very pleasant. The only complaint I have is the prices are a little high but they are an independent store so I can understand they don’t get the same discount as a Walmart or another large chain. Going there supports local business and that is what I support.

    When I lost 3 dogs in one year from the tainted dog food from Walmart’s. I decided to get good food for my new Lhasa Apso and found Creature Comforts. She has been on Wellness for most of her life. Now she likes their canned food. She will be 13 in May. But I only give her small amounts with the dry food. She also loves going into the store to visit.

    My wide and I were looking for water for our Beta fish, Geno. We went to Petco before paid $10 for 2.5 gallons. I prefer to put Geno in water which us best for him. This time when came to get water again, we went to Petco no 2.5 gallon only half gallon for $7. My wife suggested we go here at first we found salt water and knew that wasnt it and asked an employee who worked there she said that they do have a 5 gallon container which they can fill with fish water and only cost 45 cents a gallon, also when we need more we can simply go there with the container and get more water for 45 cents per gallon. Of course we will be going to Creature Comforts more for our beta fish supplies.

  • Review 123 (2019-07-02 - Rating: 5)

    As a reptile owner this is the best place in the area to get live feeders or more reptiles. Their crickets especially are the largest ones and cost the least. They also tend to have lizard species that you cannot find at PetSmart or Petco for sale and all of their animals for sale look healthy and very well taken care of. Its honestly the best place to get reptile supplies in the Binghamton area

  • Review 125 (2018-06-25 - Rating: 4)

    Amazing variety! I have a habit of comparing prices in-store with on-line and almost always find Creature Comforts wins. I dont know how they manage it!Staff goes beyond expectations too. I have found that they truely care about animals. Several months ago, I mistakenly purchased Bene-Bac for mammals when I needed the avian version. The store was out of it but an employee had some at her home. I was hand-feeding a parrot chick who needed this product ASAP. The employee brought her own Bene-Bac to me at my home later that evening! Because of her generous gift and time, the chic got through a rough patch and is now a healthy, playful part of our family.

    I went in just to look as a first time customer, and ended up finding several corn snake morphs Ive been looking at online for years. The staff took their time and were very friendly, got talking about our favorite morphs, snakes, pets in general. All the reptiles were in clean enclosures with clean water, food, and they all looked healthy. I ended up taking home a baby corn snake who Ive named Hopper. He is healthy, already eating and doing very well. Prices seem on par with current online and in store prices Ive seen. Highly recommend this pet store.

  • Review 137 (2015-07-09 - Rating: 5)

    I have been going to this store since I can remember, 18+ years. It is the only pet store in the area where the staff are knowledgable about the animals they sell, knowing exactly the best diets for them as well as what size they will grow to (I have had an employee at another local pet store tell me that oscar fish which grow to be 12+ inches stay at their baby size of 4 inches if kept in a ten gallon tank. This is of course not true).Be aware that while they have a great selection of animal supplies, for any pet you can imagine, if you want to buy an animal from them they will be ethical. They take care of their animals very seriously there and will not sell to people who will not be able to care for the animal properly and do not wish to learn how. Such as if you want a chinchilla or ferret they will ask what cage you have set up, and if it is not an appropriate cage for such an animal they may ask you to reconsider or get a different cage. they will then show you what cage would be good, what food is best etc. Again knowledgable, friendly and ethical staff. What more could an animal lover want?
