Guardianship
Changing the way we view, treat, and respect our animal companions.
Just like our customers, we are Guardians that want the longest, happiest, and healthiest life for all the pets we love.
At Pet Planet, we define Guardianship as a simple series of promises that are put into action when caring for a pet. Here are our promises:
I will make a lifetime commitment to my pets.
I will never give up on my pet, no matter what.
I will ensure that my pet eats nutritious food, gets fresh water, and has plenty of exercise.
I will choose safe and chemical-free products for my home.
I will always be gentle and compassionate.
I will take care of my pet’s physical and emotional needs.
If I see an animal in danger, I will do my best to help.
Love them unconditionally

We're a Different Kind of Retailer
At Pet Planet, we want to know about you and your pet.
So, we ask questions. Our questions help to get to know you and your favourite furry friend, which, in turn, allows us to help you make the best choices that not only help your pet thrive, but stays within your means and lifestyle.

Questions of Your Own?
It’s a loaded question – at Pet Planet, we’re proud to offer safe and trusted options that we have extensively researched. This includes learning about manufacturing processes, where the ingredients are sourced, ingredient quality, even the ingredient inclusions themselves as part of our Certificate of Trust program.
So, in short, we consider the foods offered in our stores as “good”. To determine the best food for your pet however, will depend on several things. Things like – your pet’s life stage, are there any allergies or sensitivities, are there multiple pets at home, what food type they prefer, your family’s lifestyle, etc. These can all impact which food would work best for you and your pet.
Understanding nutrition starts with the ingredient panel. Here are a few tips on what to look for in the ingredient panel:
- Named Meat – and lots of it. You don’t want to see “by-products” or vague terms like “poultry”.
- Purposeful carbohydrates (think peas, sweet potatoes, carrots).
- Low glycemic grains like oats or barley at a lower inclusion rate.
- Named fats like “chicken fat” (not “poultry fat”).
