MARION, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW)—Pet Supplies Plus opened a new location on Friday, August 9, at 1609 Marion-Mt Gilead Rd in Marion, offering pet parents a hassle-free shopping experience with a wide selection of pet products at the best price guaranteed. Known for its friendly staff and helpful customer service, Pet Supplies Plus helps local pet parents save money and celebrate the fun of pet ownership. The store offers a wide array of natural pet foods and amenities such as a full-service grooming salon, self-serve wash stations, a knowledgeable pet care team, and carry-out service where team members carry heavy items to customers’ cars. Whether shopping in-store or online, choosing local is easy at Pet Supplies Plus in Marion.

Pet Supplies Plus focuses on providing a unique in-store experience for all of its new “neighbors” (the term Pet Supplies Plus uses for customers). The new store is owned by local entrepreneur Gail Fetter, a proud Ohioan who has spent the past two decades successfully operating a debt consultation firm. Her lifelong dream of opening a pet store has now become a reality, with her second Pet Supplies Plus set to open in Marion, alongside her established location in Marysville. Animals hold a central place in Gail’s life; her cherished doodle, Charllotte, holds a special place in her heart alongside a menagerie of goats, chickens, cats, hedgehogs, and a lizard. Gail’s husband is an active participant in AKC beagle trials, boasting three field championships.

As a community partner, Fetter will work alongside local animal shelters, rescue organizations, and non-profits to host year-round adoption events, fundraisers, and pet food and product drives.

“I am deeply committed to animal welfare, organizing monthly adoption events and regularly housing up to four cats in my store,” said Fetter. “I want to be the go-to neighborhood pet store in this amazing community, promoting responsible pet ownership and fostering community engagement.”

To welcome the community to the new Pet Supplies Plus location, Gail Fetter will host a weekend-long grand opening event with 4x rewards points available on all purchases, special prize giveaways, huge discounts, and more. The free Pet Supplies Plus Rewards program allows members to receive regular coupons on products they frequently purchase, monthly specials, and free products on select brands. Rewards points can also be redeemed for free grooming and pet washes, members-only sales, and other personalized offers.

Beginning on Saturday, September 14, and continuing through Sunday, September 15, grand opening festivities at the new Pet Supplies Plus will include:
