About Us

Our Story

The Wild Indoors was started by a Mother and Daughter that have a love of animals and a wealth of knowledge to share. Our mission is to provide caregivers with the knowledge and products that their four-legged family members need to be happy and healthy

Our Philosophy on Pet Foods

  • Choosing a pet food should not be based solely on the ingredients but also what your specific pet needs from their diet.

Our Philosophy on Pet Health

  • A healthy pet begins with a healthy diet, regular veterinary care, and a well informed caregiver.
