Feed the puppies. The new arrivals post themselves.
Social media for pet stores, done by asking.
A family whose dog food ran out last night looks at three shops before it drives to one. Post the brands back on the shelf, who arrived this week and the boarding dates you still have, and yours is the counter they come to.
The request: The big bags are back in stock. Post it Monday at 9.

Pet stores: why your Google profile matters.
People search for a pet store near them when the bag runs out or a trip is coming. A Google Business Profile with your hours, the brands you carry and whether you board or groom brings them to your counter.
Asked by pet stores.
What should a pet store post on social media?
The food and supplies back in stock, new arrivals, your boarding dates before each holiday, grooming days, and one short care tip a week.
Which social media works for a pet store?
Facebook and Instagram, where local pet owners look, Google Business Profile for people searching nearby, and TikTok for short clips of the animals.
Should a pet store post prices?
Post the ones you already show in the shop: a bag of food, a night of boarding, a bath. A posted price saves a phone call.
Can I post photos of the animals in my shop?
Yes, your own photos of your own shop. An animal in a clean, bright space with its water in the frame says more than a caption.
Feed the puppies. We'll handle the posting.
