Why Homes Alive Pets?

This isn't your average pet store. You'll feel it when you walk through our door. It's more than beautifully-designed locations and friendly staff – it's a belief in a higher standard for pet care. Our stores are community hubs – somewhere to come and share an experience with your pet.

You'll immediately notice a refreshing shopping experience at Homes Alive because we take a brand-agnostic, knowledge-over-upselling approach. Rather than pushing a certain product or feeling pressured to meet sales quotas, our team's attention is solely focused on getting to know you and your pet and empowering you to make confident decisions.

Our Mission

Our mission is to add value to every life. When we say every life, we include guests and their pets. Employees and co-workers. Brand reps and vendors. Even our communities.

There is life all around us, and it is our mission to add value qualitatively and quantitatively. In the qualitative sense, it is our mission to elevate every life as important and worthwhile. In the quantitative sense, and in the context of our business, it is also our mission to add value, discounts, and a fair balance of price and quality for our guests. This is how we will make a positive impact in our communities and world.
