Welcome to Scampers. Three times voted best pet shop in the UK.
At Scampers we consider ourselves unique within our industry, as our commitment to our customers, their pets and our business is very different to most pet stores you will have visited.
Our business started out as a very traditional small pet shop in Soham, originally called “Piers Pet Foods”. After a couple of years of running my first shop, I went on the road representing two of the UK’s leading pet food manufacturers. While travelling round half the country visiting over a thousand different pet shops, I decided to expand my own business using the knowledge I had gained, (it was then that I knew, we would never be selling animals in our shop).
Now 21 years (and many grey hairs) later Scampers is still owned and managed by myself and my petshopaholic partner, Michelle Wilson (you will see what I mean when you visit!). Scampers offers our customers a complete pet lovers retail experience from our 14,000 sq ft superstore, complete with in-store veterinary practice.
With over 10,000 product lines to choose from, Scampers range is fantastic with everything from top of the line breed specific diets, pet boutique, pet pharmacy, training equipment, toys galore, fine dining, cat furniture, every kind of pet bed, grooming section, hundreds of treats and chews and of course the best range of pet foods, we believe, in the country.
When you visit you will see that we are obviously supported by all the leading manufacturers who always ask, "why is there only one Scampers". Our answer: "We have taken the decision that it is better to have one great store than a chain of average ones!".
But like all successful businesses the most important people are the Scampers loyal team, most of who have been with us several years. Their commitment to the company can be seen every day on the store floor helping our customers and helping us keep everything right, guaranteeing to you the best possible service you will receive, in any shop you visit. Our own in-house training programme is extensive and all our advisors have to complete manufacturers product exams before being allowed to advise you on the care of your pets.
What we offer is a combination of a large self-service environment with the atmosphere of the best independent shopping experience.
We look forward to meeting you and your pets sometime soon.
Managing Director.
