True Friends

A locally owned pet boutique, True Friends is filled to the brim with pawsitively delightful gifts and accessories such as license plate frames, magnets and dish towels dedicated to your favorite breed.
Puppy Boutique
If you think less is more, then make your way over to Puppy Boutique on Keeaumoku Street to check out some of the tiniest pups on the island.

The store also sells luxury dog carriers, houses and accessories so you can really pour all of your love into your new family member.
Dog MaMa
Your pup will shake his tail with delight at the all-natural, pawtastic handmade treats from Dog MaMa, located in the Professional Art Building. While they have a wide variety of snacks to choose from, one of their specialties is the chicken pizza, which features chicken bits topped with oatmeal, broccoli and honey, and apple beef jerky.

Johnny’s House Dog Salon
If your pet is in need of a s-paw day then Johnny’s House Dog Salon on Kaheka Street has got you covered. The Japanese-style salon is owned by true dog-lovers who named the business after their own dog, Johnny (if you’re lucky, you might even meet him during your visit!). Customers can choose from a basic package—featuring nail trimming, ear cleaning, shampoo and conditioner, gland expression and pads and feet trims—or a full package, which includes the aforementioned a haircut and styling. After each grooming session, pups can strike a pose and show off their new ‘do with an adorable and creative photo shoot. Johnny’s House Dog Salon also offers dog boarding for furry friends who can fit into small crates.
