Dogville in San Anselmo is run by Staysea Colteaux, who built the place around a simple idea: dogs and their owners both deserve better than a generic pet supply store. You’ll find high-quality food, toys, and accessories here, but what sets it apart is the actual attention paid to individual dogs. Staysea offers customized nutrition plans tailored to specific dietary needs, which means you’re not just grabbing whatever’s on the shelf—you’re working with someone who thinks about your dog’s health.

The space functions as a community hub with supervised socialization activities where dogs interact and play together. If your dog needs help developing social skills or just enjoys hanging out with other dogs, there’s real structure here rather than chaotic free-for-all playtime. The staff knows what they’re talking about and can point you toward products that actually work for your situation, whether that’s joint support for an older dog, training treats, or something specific you’ve been struggling to find.

San Anselmo itself is a pleasant spot to explore with your dog—tree-lined streets and proximity to some nice spots for a walk before or after you visit. The shop has that feel of a place where regulars know each other and staff remember your dog’s name, which matters more than you’d think when you’re trying to solve a particular problem or just want to chat with someone who gets it.

The welcoming atmosphere extends to both you and your dog. Staff will take time to discuss what your dog actually needs rather than upselling you on things you don’t. If you’re heading through Marin County and your dog needs new gear or you want to discuss nutrition changes, it’s worth stopping by. Just call ahead if you have questions about which services require advance notice.
