The new store is owned by franchisee Abbas Dastgir, who aims to work with local animal shelters, rescue organizations and nonprofits to host year-round adoption events, fundraisers, pet food and product drives. 

“At Pet Supplies Plus, we treat every pet like family because we understand the special bond between pets and their owners,” Dastgir said in a company statement. “Being a trusted part of the community and providing everything pets need is at the heart of what we do, and I’m excited to bring this mission to Port Jefferson Station.” 

The Pet Supplies Plus store offers a variety of natural pet foods and products for cats, dogs, reptiles, birds, fish, and small animals. It also has a grooming salon, self-serve wash stations, and carry-out service where team members carry heavy items to neighbors’ cars.
