DoorDash partners with Pet Supplies Plus

Last-mile delivery service DoorDash has added 720 new pet product retail locations through a new partnership with Pet Supplies Plus, the San Francisco-based delivery company announced Tuesday. 

That makes pet products available via same-day delivery for a broad range of household pets, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, small animals, and fish, DoorDash said in a press release. 

“This new partnership with DoorDash provides another option for our neighbors to get what they need to give their pets a happy and healthy life,” said Chris Rowland, CEO of Pet Supplies Plus, in the press release. “We pride ourselves on being a one-stop shop for pet parents, and now we can reach even more people as our brand grows.”

DoorDash said  it offers more than 400,000 pet products since launching its pets vertical in 2020. “Consumers can now access all their pets' daily essentials – from food and grooming supplies to toys and accessories – all in under an hour, on DoorDash,” the company said. 

The delivery company’s growing pet supply business follows in tandem with the rise of the U.S. pet supply market, which is expected to increase from $128.6 billion in mid-2023 to $195.6 billion by 2030, according to Bloomberg Intelligence.  

The Bloomberg report from July notes that about 27.5% of survey respondents shop for their pet products at either Walmart or Target.
