I went here to adopt my guinea pigs a few months ago and later get items for them too, the selection is fabulous!! They have huge varieties of different toys and fun activities that I had never seen before even after months of research. The cages for bunnies and guinea pigs are huge. I love this place and I don’t think I have ever been to a place with such proper care. I’ve never really written a review before, but I thought this was a must because I am literally so impressed with all the toys and treats!! There were foraging activities, tons of hides, cardboard castles with hay, play mats, so many treats, cool toys, and more. After shopping at pet-smart, I did not come here with high expectations but they were definitely beat. Thank you Bensons for having proper care and I will for sure be coming back :))

I had a Gift Card, and went over there And couldn't spend a dime of it. It's such a big store, and there was nothing for my Dogs. No freshpet for Toy Dogs, & none of the high end canned food we use either.....

I went there today because I needed betta tank stuff- top, light, living decor and plants. I got help from a lovely person named Ellen who helped me find everything I needed and helped me educate myself on giving my future betta the best home! They are an amazing employee, I will definitely be coming here more often. Very nice quality of aquatics and very welcoming atmosphere

Bensons is a pet store where you can purchase food, toys, fish, birds, retiles etc.....I know they collect items for shelters, there is a cart by the door where patrons can donate items they have purchased to give. Bensons is an awesome store, friendly and helpful.

Do they sell puppies here?

Mia Bateman | Sep 9, 2018
Deborah K | Sep 9, 2018

No. I would suggest that you adopt through a shelter, rescue group or a reputable AKC registered breeder. If u but from a pet shop, you will be supporting puppy mills.
