Zack Grey is the creator and owner of The Urban Pet located in Los Angeles, Silver Lake, Eagle Rock, and South Pasadena. After segueing from a 14 year career as a professional dancer, he worked as a personal assistant to a well-known Hollywood dog trainer, Shelby Marlo. From there he transitioned into launching his own dog training company, UrbanTails, in 2004, and was quickly lauded for his innovative personal training and technique. When the pet store that hosted his group obedience classes closed, Zack was inspired to open a store of his own. What evolved in 2007 was The Urban Pet; a sprawling 5000-square-foot zen-like space featuring the finest pet foods and supplies the industry had to offer.
