Pawtastic Pet Supplies was started back
in 2008. I was tired of overpaying at
the big pet stores with crummy customer
service, watching the mom and pops shut
down due to super markets taking over.
And then the recession was hitting
harder and my friends and neighbors were
having a tough time providing for their
pets. We actually started out as a free
home delivery service in our county and
surrounding areas. Before I knew it, we
were getting inquiries from all over the
United States, so we added shipping.
Then we added international shipping
last year. And we just kinda grew. Funny
part is the local free delivery never
did, although we still have a handful of
local customers that we drive their pet
food and supplies to their door!
What makes us different than other pet
supplies stores?
If you’re looking for friendly
customer service, try us out! We may not
be the fastest shippers but you can rest
assured that your items are checked,
pre-squeaked if needed, and packed by
us.. err… me! LOL! Dog and cats are my
forte, fish a little, and some knowledge
on Small Pet and Reptiles (but I will
take the time to find out for you!)
Meet
Our Team!!
Julie,
Owner and Operator
I've been
involved with pets since I was
little. One of my first words
was "Hucky" the family dog's
name, and I was always bringing
home strays, much to my Mom's
"delight". I've had German
Shepherds since the early 90's..
pictured with me are Tasha
(left) and Mandy (right). Mandy
was a rescue that led me on a
path that I will never forget,
she was my life and inspiration.
Tasha was my love and snuggle
bunny, both are very much
missed.
Mia
Mia is a black German Shepherd.
She is the guarder of all boxes
and keeps the others away on
packing day so all the toys and
treats are safe for our
customers!
Misty
Misty is a
sable German Shepherd. She is
the smallest but the most vocal
of our team. She likes to test
the toys by running laps in the
backyard with them in her mouth!
Mr Blue
Mr Blue is a
blue German Shepherd. He is so
sweet and loves to lay in the
middle of the floor to make sure
we slow down and pack carefully.
He is also the back-up guarder
of boxes if Mia is missing in
action.
Monday
Monday is a
black and silver German
Shepherd. She is the quietest of
our team unless she is testing a
squeak toy! She will squeak and
squeak and squeak for hours,
thoroughly testing the
durability. If it passes the
Monday test, you know it's
durable!
Mandy II
Mandy II
(nickname 2 Piece Chicken, don't
ask!) is a white German
Shepherd. She prefers to test
the treats over the toys (unless
it's a dental dino!) and will
carefully select only the
tastiest!
Merrick
Merrick is a
white German Shepherd that is
affected with lymphedema (a rare
genetic disease). He works just
as hard as the rest of the team
and loves to check each package,
as long as Mia and Mr Blue are
not watching.
Stripe
Stripe is a
black and silver German Shepherd
and is one of the newest on the
team! She is super smart and
spunky and really wants Mia's
job! Shhhhh, don't let Mia know!
Cartman
Cartman is a
black and silver German Shepherd
and is one of the newest on the
team! He is very quiet and
lovable, and always wants to
help with whatever we need. Just
don't ask him to test a collar,
he really hates that!
Gone but Not Forgotten...
Hoofprint
Maxwell's Ascension
Max was a
pivotal team member when
Pawtastic Pet was started. He
was the first official toy and
treat tester, and would steal
toys whenever he could when Mia
was not watching! One time he
stole and ate an entire bag of
breath treats from a customer's
order in 3 seconds flat! Both
him and Mia were in the dog
house for a few days, luckily
our customer got a good laugh
that day! Max will always be
missed by all of us.... He was a
good dog and a team player. We
love ya Boo Bear!

Max Misty and Mia
Speak! Well, not Misty, she lets her Mom
and Dad do it for her!
Mr Blue and Merrick enjoy the record
snowfall of 2009!
