Bentley’s Pet Stuff sells natural food, pet care essentials, toys, grooming products and treats. Specialty pet food brands such as Fromm, Orijen, Zignature, Honest Kitchen and Stella & Chewy’s can be obtained from all Bentley’s Pet Stuff locations.

“As pet lovers, our values perfectly aligned with Sherri and the Pet Outpost staff, and we’re confident this new addition to our business and future expansion will help us continue to offer the very best in products and services to pets and their owners,” said co-founder and owner Lisa Senafe. “This acquisition highlights our commitment to promoting healthy foods and treats for the well-being of animals and further allows our team to meet the vast needs of pet owners.”
