Online Ordering Limitations

Pet owners wanting to order and purchase pet supplies online will find that Pet Supplies Plus isn’t as simple as one would hope. The business does offer online purchases; however, it has to be through one of Pet Supplies Plus’s participating stores. And not all states have a Pet Supplies Plus store. Pet Supplies Plus has retail stores in the following states:

• Alabama
• Colorado
• Delaware
• Georgia
• Illinois
• Indiana
• Iowa
• Kansas
• Kentucky
• Maryland

Shoppers located outside these states will have to look elsewhere for their pet supply needs.

After determining a specific store is participating with the online orders, customers can begin shopping and add their favorite products to their cart, login, or create an account to receive Preferred Pet Club member pricing. Then customers will wait for an email, letting them know that their order is ready to pick up. Most orders are available within two hours, but shoppers must pick up their order within four days to avoid cancellation and a refund. While it is convenient to be able to order pet supplies online, many shoppers would appreciate Pet Supplies Plus offering its products to be directly delivered to their doors.
