The best pet shops & services in Tri Cities

“The Local Merchants is a woman-owned, downtown Bristol collective that corrals local makers, artisans, and boutiques into one easy stop. It’s the kind of place you pop in for a gift, leave with something for yourself, then swear you’re “just supporting the community,” which... you are.”

“Pet Partners is the family-owned, pet-approved spot for pro grooming or an easy self-serve bath when the mud wins. They also handle boarding and daycare, and their shelves are stacked with trusted foods and gear, including Acana, Orijen, Blue Buffalo, Zignature, and Stella & Chewy’s.”
