About
Petland Memphis is a long-running pet store on the Memphis, TN retail scene, and while it sits a little outside the usual independent fish store mold, it remains a familiar stop for shoppers hunting pet and aquarium supplies near me. The shelves carry dry goods and starter gear for new pet owners, and you can find pet and aquarium supplies for sale in Memphis, TN alongside a rotating cast of live animals. Worth knowing up front: recent visitors note the live-animal floor leans heavily toward puppies, rabbits, and the occasional ferret rather than stocked aquariums — one shopper put it plainly that they "came here for fishes" and found "puppies" instead — so if a fish run is your goal, it is worth a phone call before you head over.
Where Petland genuinely shines is its people. Review after review names the same crew — Leslie, Rochelle, Erica, Kylie, Olivia, Kaniya, Michael, Jay, and Kimberly — for being patient, kind, and genuinely invested in matching families with the right companion. Customers describe private bonding time with the animals, clean rooms, hand-washing between visits, and staff who answer every question without rushing the sale.
3 rating. The flip side, by customers' own accounts, is that the in-person buying process is thorough and can run long — expect deposits, a credit check, financing talk, and paperwork that some say stretched a couple of hours, with puppy pricing climbing into the thousands. A handful of shoppers have also raised post-purchase health concerns and asked for clearer transparency upfront.
For Memphis, TN locals, Petland stays an engaging, hands-on place to browse animals and grab pet and aquarium dry goods on a single walk-in trip, staffed by a team that customers clearly adore.
