All About Pawtastic Pet...

 

Why did we start our business?

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!
