We buy ingredients to prepare your pets' food when we do groceries for our own family from the same stores. On top of that we are following up all recommendations on food preparation followed by restaurants. Everything is cooked and immediately frozen when still hot what makes the food safe.

What we are doing to prevent the corona virus.Additional steps that Covid-19 pandemics experts suggested, and we adopted at Mamas pet food When we cook your pets meals we are following exactly the same standards suggested on food preparation for humans. Use of discarded gloves and paper towels to clean that are immediately thrown away Every raw ingredient we buy to prepare your pets meal is washed and sanitized as per suggestions of AHS and other health organizations. We doubled our usual standards with hygiene and sanitation, which means at every step the cook wash hands thoroughly, also every pot, cooking tool and table-top is double cleaned and sanitized before use. During the cooking process the food is not touched until is ready to be wrapped up or stored in a container. Once the food is ready, we put the food hot in the final container it goes to the freezer.
