Creating a Healthier World for Pets, People, and Our Planet: The Story of Ava's Pet Palace
As a young girl, I had a passion for animals and a dream to create a healthier world for pets, people, and our planet. At just 6 years old, I drew my first business plan and two years later, with the help of my parents, I made my dream a reality with Ava's Pet Palace.
At Ava's Pet Palace, we believe in the power of simple, organic, and all-natural ingredients to keep pets happy, healthy, and feeling great. Our treats are not only nutritious and delicious, but they are also pet-parent approved. We use only the best, high-quality ingredients in our treats, and we are committed to using sustainable practices in our packaging and shipping.
As the Founder and Chief Pet Officer of Ava's Pet Palace, I am proud to be a part of the Pet Sustainability Coalition and to use sustainable practices in our packaging and shipping. Our bags are made from 30% post-consumer materials and all orders shipped from our website are carbon neutral.
But our commitment to the animal community goes beyond just making healthy treats. We are also dedicated to giving back to animal advocates and organizations each month. We believe that all pets, whether they are in our homes, living in shelters, or even homeless, deserve lots of love, kindness, and the best nutrition.
Our community of pet parents, animal lovers, and advocates share this belief and we are proud to have grown into an amazing community of like-minded individuals.
Today, Ava's Pet Palace is a growing business with happy customers throughout the US. With the help of my mom, who works for Ava's Pet Palace full-time, we ship hundreds of bags of treats each month.
Join us on our mission to create a healthier world for pets, people, and our planet. Try our treats today and see the difference that simple, organic, and all-natural ingredients make.
Thank you so much for visiting my business. I hope we make you smile today! ππΆπ±π
