New Neighborhood Pet Store Puts Playful Twist on Pet Shopping

Pet Supplies Plus is now open at 710 Old San Antonio Rd. in Buda, offering local pet parents a hassle-free way to find better products for their pets, while saving them money and celebrating the fun of pet ownership. In addition, the store will offer amenities such as self-pet wash stations, knowledgeable pet care team members and carry-out service in which team members carry heavy items to neighbors’ cars.

The store is owned by local franchisees Penny and Art Lasseter and be run by their son, Jared. The Lasseters are long time animal lovers, always doing their best to give pets the best home and care possible. They will host fun, interactive events for pets designed to socially connect pet parents throughout the Buda community.

Pet Supplies Plus offers Buda pet parents a wide selection of natural pet foods, goods and pet services at low prices and focus on a unique, rich in-store experience for “neighbors” (the term Pet Supplies Plus uses for customer).

Jared said pet parents are always welcome to shop with their dogs at the store, where knowledgeable team members are on-site to answer questions, offer tips or just get on their hands and knees to play with pets who enter the store.

“We love that you are in the store, we want to have fun with you – we don’t just want to sell you pet food,” Jared said. “Our Minus the Hassle tagline refers to making shopping for your pet an enjoyable, easy experience. For example, we don’t want you lugging your food out to your car – that’s our job. If you want to wash your dog, come on in. We’ll deal with the mess that’s tied to a bathing session.”

Neighbors have access to an experienced and knowledgeable team help them find everything they need. Each team member is extensively trained in the areas of natural and holistic foods and are able to answer a broad range of questions about dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and fish. Shoppers can also take advantage of the free Preferred Pet Club, which offers members regular coupons on products they purchase frequently and monthly specials, resulting in big savings.

The new store will create many new part-time and full-time jobs for the Buda community. It will be open Monday – Saturday 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. To contact Pet Supplies Plus of Buda, call 512-523-8411 or visit www.petsuppliesplus.com.
