Pet Stores in Salem, VA

“When our previous dog got older and needed extra care when we were away, we trusted About Pets Center with her needs. We now have a new dog (a puppy). We knew from day one we would take him to About Pets Center. Because our new dog is from a social breed, we take him at least twice a week for daycare so he can see his dog friends! We have had him groomed there, and we aim to have his nails done monthly (they come out smooth and rounded unlike the jagged splits that the vet produced!). The owners will help educate you on every aspect they can about your dog (a puppy is new to us!). Our dog loves to visit and shakes with excitement on our way through the door. He loves About Pets Center!”

“Been going to this store since it opened. Great selection and prices. During COVID, when everyone was out of Fancy Feast, I tried their Mittens brand. Not only less expensive than Fancy Feast, but the cats love it! Plus, they offer a $10 off $60 purchase coupon on the back of the receipt from the Kroger next door. Great company. The loyalty program can be a pain to deal with, though. I do love their mobile vet who visits monthly from Blacksburg. Always the same vet and very good with our animals.”

“I am thrilled about how great this place is. They took care of my dog, and I must say, I was nervous to leave him while I was on vacation, but I'm so happy he did well. Thank you all!”

“My Service Dog and I love Tractor Supply. She is an actual service dog not an ESP. But when we go in the store, she is fine, but when we are leaving, she does pull on her leash to get outside because we did not go many places in the hot summer so some of her training has gone downhill a little. This isn't because she wasn't properly trained, she is usually just in a quiet environment with me at home so loud noises make her a little anxious sometimes, depending on her mood. I am working with her on this and we use Tractor Supply the past few times as our go to store to get some of her training to help her overcome her overstimulation anxiety. They are very kind in the store. They help if I need help when I am buying something. If we are just walking through to look around and get some training in, they are ok with that too. They do not address my dog knowing she is a Service Dog and always ask first if they can pet or give her treats. They know what is right and what is not right to do with Service animals. They are knowledgeable about our needs when we need flea/tick medicine, calming aids, other supplies or even just toys, etc. They do not make me or my Service dog feel uncomfortable to be there even if we aren't buying anything that day. Now that the weather is cooler, I can get back to more training with my girl who works hard to keep me safe and help me but just has the one flaw of pulling to leave stores, I just need a little more patience with her. They have even given me some suggestions that may help with this little flaw. We will overcome. Thank you Tractor Supply for your kind, knowledgeable and well trained staff! We appreciate you.”
