More Than Just a Transaction: Building a Community

What truly resonates with many US customers is Pet Supplies Plus's commitment to being a local hub.

• Local Store Events: From adoption days with local shelters to fun "Yappy Hours," seasonal parties (like Howl-ween!), and educational demos, they actively foster a sense of community among pet lovers.

Their TerraCycle partnership for recycling pet food packaging is another nod to responsible pet ownership.

Convenience in the Modern Age

While cherishing the neighborhood feel, Pet Supplies Plus also embraces modern convenience:

• Online Shopping & Curbside Pickup: Can't make it into the store? Their website offers online ordering with options for convenient curbside pickup or even same-day delivery in many areas.


• Pet Supplies Plus Rewards: Their loyalty program offers points for purchases, member-only sales, personalized offers, and even birthday/gotcha day gifts for your pet, making every dollar spent go further.
