Golden Nibbles is a woman-owned, family-operated company specializing in freeze-dried raw treats and raw food for dogs and cats. We focus on small-batch production, transparent sourcing, and species-appropriate nutrition.

Unlike many brands that buy pre-made treats, we source our own proteins and process everything ourselves. We control every step — from ingredient selection to final packaging.

Yes. We are a small, family-owned company — not a mass-production brand. Every product is made with intention, not outsourced or factory-produced.

Golden Nibbles is based in Manassas, Virginia , serving customers throughout Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and beyond.

Our full address is 9071 Jerrys Circle, Manassas, VA 20110

Golden Nibbles was created to provide dogs and cats with honest, species-appropriate treats and raw food made with transparency, care, and uncompromising quality.

Golden Nibbles is a manufacturing facility, not a traditional retail storefront. Because we produce treats and raw food in small batches, our hours can vary day to day. We may or may not be on-site at any given time.

If you’d like to stop by, we recommend calling in advance or placing an order online and selecting a pickup time. All pickups are by appointment only so we can ensure someone is available and ready to assist you.

The majority of our proteins are sourced from trusted U.S. farmers using ethical, grass-fed, and pasture-raised practices.

For select specialty items where quality matters most, we source globally. This includes New Zealand green-lipped mussels from New Zealand and wild-caught sardines from Portugal.

Certain regions are known worldwide for producing the highest-quality ingredients. When we source internationally, it is always intentional and quality-driven.

In-house processing allows us to maintain transparency, consistency, and quality — something that isn’t possible when products are outsourced or mass-produced overseas.

Absolutely. If you’re unsure where to start, reach out to us. We’re happy to make recommendations based on your dog or cat’s age, size, preferences, and dietary needs.

That’s completely normal. Just like people, dogs and cats can be cautious with new flavors or proteins. If your pup or kitty isn’t immediately sold on a treat, don’t worry. Sometimes a little time, creativity, or a different feeding approach makes all the difference.

Yes. We ship throughout the United States , including Hawaii and Puerto Rico by using USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

At this time, Golden Nibbles does not accept returns or exchanges. Because our products are food items made in small batches, all sales are final. That said, we want you to feel confident when shopping with us.

We understand that things happen. If you miss your pickup appointment or need to reschedule, please contact us as soon as possible to select a new pickup time or give us a heads up. Because pickups are scheduled by appointment to ensure someone is available, advance notice helps us coordinate and assist you more smoothly.
