Who is Pet Supplies Plus?
The "plus" is us, i.e., the people of our over 700+ stores, 2 distribution centers and Michigan-based headquarters. As the nation's largest independent pet store, we've made it our mission to make life easier for pet parents and to create opportunities that make life better for our team members. While pets inspire us, it's our inclusive work environment and collaborative culture that drive us.
How We Vibe
Do you believe no pet can be too pampered? Then you're probably one of us. As a company, our dedication to the furry, feathered, scaly and finned can be summed up by four core values we call our "Paw Print." This is our blueprint for success at Pet Supplies Plus and it's based on the idea that every team member should be neighborly, petcentric, trustworthy and knowledgeable.
