It all started back in 1995 when our first store was opened in Plymouth, today we have 9 stores and we are proud to remain a family owned and run business.

We’re passionate about all pets and our highly-trained and dedicated staff are all pet owners just like you.

Our online store comprises of over 18,000 quality products for all pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, small pets and fish. Our excellent relationships with the industry’s biggest suppliers allows us to offer this wide range of products at great prices.
