Pet and dog food delivery services vary considerably when it comes to what you can get from each one. Some pet food suppliers are exclusive to a single kind of pet or product. Brands like Spot and Tango, Pet Plate, and The Farmer’s Dog, for example, cater exclusively to dog parents. From these suppliers, you’ll only find (high quality) all-natural dog food. There are also suppliers like Smalls that cater specifically to kitties.
If you live near a pet supply store or drive past one on your regular route, you might wonder whether it’s worth it for you to order your pet food online. There are multiple benefits that you can glean:
Even if you’ve methodically worked out how and when to get to the pet store during your busy daily routine, there’s just no comparison to the convenience of online shopping. Orders can be placed anytime you want and from anywhere. Whether you’re at work in between meetings or on the couch in your pj’s, online shopping lets you get your pet food ordered in an instant. And good stores like Chewy will save your previous orders, so you can reorder whenever you’re running low for faster and even easier deliveries.
Most storefront pet shops have a limited supply of pet products. The brands and supplies that are available in-store are what you can choose from. But online superstores give you a tremendous range of options from brands to styles and more. For example, there are tens of different types of foods you can choose from, ranging from feed with sweet potatoes, brown rice, or fresh chicken, and that’s not even counting the number of brands.
Because online stores have more access to a greater variety of supplies, pet parents can find more affordable options than they would if they were dealing with the limited options in a single pet store. What’s more, since online pet shops don’t have the same overhead as storefront suppliers, they can give customers better prices on their products. Finally, online pet food delivery services frequently give discounts to their customers, especially if you buy in bulk.
Another great benefit to online pet food delivery sites is that they deliver all of your pet supplies straight to your door. During this coronavirus time, anytime you don’t have to leave the house and go shopping around crowds of other people is a better option. Pet delivery services offer contactless delivery, so you don’t have to go out. But even during regular times, deliveries mean you don’t have to schlepp heavy cartons of pet food and other bulky pet supplies from the store to your car and from your car to your house. It’s just an easier way of shopping all around.
