Fetch & Friskers is your source for all your dog and cat needs in Boerne. It is a woman-owned Christian business excited to celebrate its tenth birthday on December 15th this year. The shop is proud to be pet-friendly and the sales associates thoroughly enjoy it when people bring their fur-babies in to shop with them.

Fetch & Friskers offers fresh baked, all-natural human-grade pet treats – baked in small batches in the store. All the treats have been approved and are certified by the state of Texas. We offer decorated cookies for birthdays and also have seasonal themed cookies that change each month. In addition, we offer Pupcakes for your pups’ special occasion or birthday.

Although it may look small from the outside, Fetch & Friskers has a large variety of items for all your dog or cat’s needs. Roaming the interior of the shop's multiple rooms is an adventure. The shelves of products offer the highest quality frozen, freeze-dried and traditional kibble dog and cat foods. We specialize in stocking durable but fun dog toys. There is a large selection of collars, leashes, harnesses and pet apparel - as well as high quality pet beds that won’t fall apart when laundered. Costume your pet in your favorite sports team attire. Those tiny outfits are the cutest! As you walk through the store you will notice that the variety of products (especially food and treats) we carry are not found in your typical large box pet store.

And why not create a fun piece of art made exclusively by your pet? Here's a great activity you can share with your pet of any kind.
