The Purcellville store formerly occupied by Pet Valu will host a grand opening event as Pet Supplies Plus on September 18 and 19. Located at 120 Purcellville Gateway Drive, the new store will provide Purcellville neighbors with a welcoming environment that offers a variety of pet care products, toys and foods.

Pet Supplies Plus offers a hassle-free way to find better products for pets, while saving pet parents money and celebrating the fun of pet ownership. The new store offers dog wash stations, knowledgeable pet care team members, and carry-out service (team members will carry heavy items to neighbors' cars). The store will offer reserved parking spaces for touchless pickup and full-service grooming services.

The new store is owned and operated by local entrepreneurs and couple Kevin and Donna Bath. Both Kevin and Donna work professionally in the systems engineering space as project managers. As longtime Pet Valu shoppers, they were saddened to learn of the store's closing. After learning about Pet Supplies Plus through a radio advertisement, the pair identified it as a perfect opportunity to provide much needed services to the Purcellville community.

"We're so excited to open as Pet Supplies Plus and introduce the Purcellville community to our products and services," said Kevin. "Our staff members are dedicated to providing the best shopping experience possible to our neighbors. The store combines a local, neighbor-oriented experience with the ability to provide a tremendous variety of pet products and services."

Pet Supplies Plus of Purcellville will give pet parents a wide selection of natural pet foods, goods and pet services at low prices, as well as a unique, rich in-store experience for "neighbors" (the term Pet Supplies Plus uses for customers). The store currently features dog wash stations and a knowledgeable and friendly staff; it will offer grooming services in the near future. 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 stores.

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 for products they purchase frequently and monthly specials, resulting in big savings.
