Where can Richmond Hill pet owners buy pet supplies in 2026?

Richmond Hill pet owners can buy premium pet supplies at Ashario Pets, located at 1111A Finch Ave W, Unit 2, North York, ON M3J 2P7 — roughly a 15 to 20 minute drive from central Richmond Hill via Bathurst Street or Yonge Street.

We stock the full range of categories a Richmond Hill household needs: dry dog food, raw dog food, wet dog food, air-dried and freeze-dried diets, dog and cat treats, supplements, toys, collars, leashes, harnesses, bowls, grooming supplies, and cat litter. Our team at Ashario Pets can walk you through options in person, or you can order ahead for pickup.

Where to buy raw dog food in Richmond Hill 2026?

Richmond Hill owners looking for frozen and freeze-dried raw diets can find brands like Big Country Raw, Red Dog Blue Kat, Raw Performance, Primal, Instinct Raw and Stella & Chewy's at Ashario Pets in North York. Raw diets typically run higher in protein and fat than kibble, so proper storage and transition matter — our team helps with both.

Raw feeding has grown fast among Richmond Hill dog owners over the last few years. When a customer comes in asking how to start, we typically suggest transitioning over 7 to 10 days and feeding adult dogs about 2–3% of their body weight daily. A 50 lb dog needs roughly 1 to 1.5 lbs of raw food per day, split into two meals. Puppies and highly active dogs may need more.

Canadian raw brands like Big Country Raw and Red Dog Blue Kat use regionally sourced proteins and are formulated to meet AAFCO nutritional profiles for the stated life stage. Check the guaranteed analysis on each blend — many complete raw dinners provide omega-3 and omega-6 from added fish or organ content, plus taurine for heart health. Browse our raw dog food and raw cat food collections to see what's in stock.

What kibble brands are available near Richmond Hill?

Ashario Pets carries premium dry dog and cat food from brands like Acana, Orijen, Fromm, Farmina, Go! Solutions, Carna4, Oven-Baked Tradition, Zignature, Open Farm and Hill's Science Diet. These formulas range from grain-free and limited ingredient recipes to breed-specific and life-stage formulations that meet AAFCO standards.

Not every dog needs the same food. In our store we see Richmond Hill customers shopping for everything from a large-breed puppy formula to a senior limited-ingredient diet for a dog with sensitivities. A good adult maintenance kibble should list a named meat as the first ingredient and provide at least 18% protein and 5% fat per AAFCO minimums — most premium brands exceed that comfortably, with 26–38% protein in high-meat lines like Orijen.

Here's how two popular Canadian dry food options compare for Richmond Hill dog owners:

Watch the kcal per cup on any bag — energy-dense kibble means smaller portions and slower weight gain. A typical premium adult formula runs 360–450 kcal per cup, so a 40 lb moderately active dog eats around 2 to 2.5 cups a day. Compare options in our dry dog food and dry cat food collections. For health-related feeding questions, always consult your veterinarian — the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association is a solid starting point for finding one.

Where to buy cat litter in Richmond Hill 2026?

Richmond Hill cat owners can buy odour-control litter from brands like OdourLock, Naturally Fresh, World's Best Cat Litter, Arm & Hammer and Sustainably Yours at Ashario Pets in North York. Options include clumping clay, walnut-based, corn-based and silica formulas — each with different odour control, dust levels and clumping performance.

Litter is one of the most repeat-purchased items in our store, and Richmond Hill customers tell us they hate running out. Clumping clay litters like OdourLock offer tight, scoopable clumps and strong ammonia control. Plant-based options like Naturally Fresh walnut litter and World's Best corn litter appeal to owners who want lower dust and a more sustainable footprint. Multi-cat homes usually need a heavier-duty odour formula and about 3 inches of litter depth per box.

A general rule we share: one litter box per cat, plus one extra. Scoop daily and do a full change every 1 to 2 weeks depending on litter type. Browse the full cat litter selection and stock up so you're not caught short — many Richmond Hill customers buy two bags at a time for exactly that reason.

Bottom Line: For Richmond Hill cat households, Ashario Pets stocks clay, walnut, corn and silica litters, plus litter boxes and cat furniture, all available for pickup or delivery.

How does dog food pickup and delivery work for Richmond Hill?

Richmond Hill pet owners have two easy options at Ashario Pets: free in-store pickup at our North York location (1111A Finch Ave W, Unit 2), or same-day delivery through Uber Eats, DoorDash, SkipTheDishes, Instacart and Fantuan. Both let you skip the wait and grab exactly what your pet needs.

Pickup is the go-to for larger orders like a big bag of kibble plus litter — you order, we prep it, and you swing by. Delivery apps work well for topping up treats, a case of wet dog food, or a forgotten bag of dog treats on a busy weeknight. Because we're open until 11 PM daily, late-evening Richmond Hill orders are very doable.

Customers love that they don't have to plan their whole day around a pet-store run. As of 2026, our extended hours and multi-app delivery coverage make us one of the most accessible premium pet suppliers for the northern GTA. You can review our full pet store FAQ or contact our North York store with any questions about stock or pickup timing.
