The role of a Store Team Member at Pet Supplies Plus is uniquely rewarding for individuals passionate about pets and customer service. A Store Team Member does more than cashier transactions—they help neighbors select the perfect toys for their dogs, assist with reviewing pet food ingredients to address customer concerns, fit pets with harnesses, educate young customers about pet ownership, and maintain the cleanliness and care of animals in the store. This position involves versatile duties ranging from stocking shelves and ringing up purchases to caring for pets by feeding and cleaning their habitats. It is a physically demanding role requiring the ability to lift 40-65 pounds and stand for extended periods. In return, employees gain valuable knowledge through the company's interactive Pet Degree pay-for-knowledge programs that foster professional growth and advancement.

Store Team Members often specialize in roles such as cashiering, stocking inventory, or pet care, but all contribute collaboratively to maintaining the store's friendly and efficient environment. Members are expected to support each other by providing backup assistance when needed, bring a comprehensive understanding of animals and pet products to deliver outstanding customer service, and demonstrate flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays. Applicants must be at least 16 years old and may be required to pass a drug screening depending on state regulations.

Pet Supplies Plus offers numerous benefits reflecting its commitment to employee welfare, including employee discounts, flexible scheduling, pay increases, specialized pet care training programs, and a culture that promotes from within. Full-time employees have access to medical, dental, and vision plans, as well as health savings and flexible spending accounts. Working at Pet Supplies Plus means joining a company focused not only on the growth of its business but on fostering a passionate and knowledgeable workforce dedicated to the joy and care of pets, creating an excellent environment for both customers and team members alike.
