Island Paws’ Philosophy

Open daily from 9am to 4pm, and 9am to 3pm on Sundays, this delightful Pet Boutique can be found on Tarpon Bay Road in the Olde Sanibel Shoppes on Sanibel Island. The store was the brainchild of two girls – Trasi and Liza, egged on by their four-legged friends, Jewels, Cassie and Kinsale.

They simply wanted to share their philosophy and love of pets as members of the family. The store opened in 2004 and has been providing natural foods, pet supplies and a range of gorgeous gifts for like-minded owners and their pets.

The store specializes in a range of natural pet food lines including products by Acana, Blue  Buffalo, Canidae, Merrick, Natural Planet Organics, Nature’s Variety, Orijen, Solid Gold and Taste of the Wild. Whether you own a calico cat or a cockerpoo you will find everything you need, along with advice and helpful friendly service at Island Paws. The staff are passionate about animals and are happy to provide customers with information to promote the health and longevity of their much-loved pets.
