History
CitiFid-O was an idea that came about because owners Paul and Terri Karlsson, who own The Tree and Vine Tasting Shop a few doors down from CitiFid-O, were having to perform services as dog handlers and walkers for the customers of their olive oil and balsamic tasting shop on most weekends. And while Knoxville has a rich downtown environment where the frills and frivolities of life are readily available within walking distance, the necessities often are overlooked. Downtown Knoxville suffered from a lack of retail locations that catered to pet owners at the time - a confusing gap in a city that seems to have as many pets as humans. That all changed when CitiFid-O opened in April 2014.

At CitiFid-o, we stand behind all of our products and services. We're big fans of all-natural products made in America, and locally produced food whenever possible. Everything your pet can eat is made in the USA, with all American ingredients. You can be assured we put thought behind every product that's on our shelves and that it's been vetted, tested, and reviewed by our staff with exacting standards. CitiFid-o offers premium pet food, innovative pet toys, comfortable beds and carriers, essential accessories, and above all, advice from the heart. If we don't carry a particular product, we'll make sure to order it and stock it just for you. There's nothing we won't do for your four-legged friend! CitiFid-O also offers free samples for your pet to try, and we find they often come back for seconds. We're proud of the supplies we carry, and we'll be more than be happy to provide information about anything in the shop. If we don't have a certain item available, we'll be glad to order it for you!
