About us
It all started with birds in 1974.
Bob Novak, CEO (Top Dog)
Pets Warehouse enjoys a loyal clientele and has become one of the industry's top pet retailers. Our web site has been ranked #2 by Yahoo Internet Life magazine, and is the third most visited pet supply site by NPD Research. Our success has been built on a simple principle: take care of every customer and make them number one.
The business grew from a chance meeting with a bird, when founder Bob Novak, a computer programmer, was introduced to a co-worker’s tame and talking parrot, then Bob & his wife Cathy found Herby an amazon parrot, it was love at first sight, and soon Bob’s enchantment led to owning several pet birds of his own including "Little Grey" who they shared their lives with for over 30 years. T
he passion led to opening a bird specialty store in Bayshore LI, NY in 1974, the genesis of the Pets Warehouse superstores that serves all types of pets today. Along the way Bob operated two USDA-licensed bird quarantine import facilities, providing birds to dealers throughout the United States, and today his Pet Warehouse chain includes seven retail stores and an online catalog started in 1997 with products and services for birds, dogs, cats, fish, reptiles and other pets.
