Preuss Pets

I have always loved this place, but I haven't been able to visit in over a decade. I was finally able to stop back in, and I enjoyed every moment of my visit. This place is just as fun as I always remembered it to be. Even if you do not have plans to add a new pet to your family right now, this is a great place to just walk around and appreciate the wide variety of pets available. The atmosphere is well maintained and they keep it very clean. All of the animals seem well cared for. The staff were extremely kind and attentive, and I feel it was quite obvious that everyone who works there loves animals. They are located downtown and they have ample parking available. All around, a great place to visit!

This place was the most JAW DROPPING pet store I have ever been into. The workers were absolutely amazing and very welcoming and inviting. I came in looking for some stuff to start building a new tank and there selection of plants was astonishing. All of the plants and fish looked so healthy. I’ve never been in a more amazing fish store. I can tell this place is very well taken care of! I will definitely keep coming back here even though it’s 2 hours from me!

They had some pretty unique animals, fish, & reptiles. The layout of the store was really neat, definitely 1 of a kind 👍 I just saw some really large fish in unusually small tanks and their prices were a bit on the higher side, But definitely worth the visit

Love this store! They’re the best in the area for exotic pets, reptiles, amphibians, small mammals (rats, chinchillas, ferrets, bunnies, etc) birds, fish, and more! We make a point to stop anytime we’re in the area for a new plant or two for our palladarium, feeder insect treats for our geckos or frog, or just to see what’s new. The staff are always super friendly and helpful and knowledgeable and the owners work with ethical suppliers to source their live pets. I can’t wait to work with their staff to help set up and establish an enclosure for a new chameleon we plan to add to our home soon!

I used to shop at Pruce’s Pets all the time growing up, and walking in today with my son brought back a lot of good memories. Not much has changed — it’s still the best pet store around Lansing, hands down. Full of animals, reptiles, fish — the kind of place you can get lost in as a kid. My son thought it was awesome, just like I used to. The staff really knows their stuff, which I respect, but they ended up talking us out of getting any of the fish my son had his eye on. They said our tank at home wasn’t a good fit for goldfish. They were probably right, and I appreciate that they care about the animals — but it was a bit of a letdown for him. He ended up getting a snail instead, which he’s been into ever since. Still a great place. It was cool to come full circle and share the experience with my own kid. Definitely worth a visit — just expect honest advice from people who know their stuff.
