Preuss Pets is not your average pet store.The staff of niche hobbyists want to learn and teach everything they know about their animals.

Jayzun Boget, assistant manager and reptile expert, said people are drawn to the store because of the vast knowledge of the staff.

“It’s so nice to be able to have a vibrant conversation where you can talk to someone and ask them questions,” Boget said. “I think people really react to that.

Store manager Rick Preuss said the store does so well not only because the staff so involved, but the store atmosphere also is enjoyable.

“The whole way we’ve designed the store is to express the passion, the love and the greatness that pet-keeping brings,” Preuss said. “So when you walk in here, you see the place and you know you’ve found your place.”
