About Benson's Pet Center
Benson's Pet Center operates nine neighborhood pet stores on the east coast, including Wilton, Clifton Park, Colonie, Queensbury, Johnstown, Saratoga Springs, Rotterdam, and Ballston Spa, NY as well as Pittsfield, MA. Benson's came to be when a father and son took over an existing pet store named "Benson's Pet Center". The son had a big interest in aquatics and pets in general. Almost 31 years later, the mission is the same-- to help wherever possible, to educate people about pet nutrition, and to create the best possible customer experience every time someone comes through their doors.
Employees at Benson's Pet Center are experts in pet nutrition, and they love your pets as much as you do. They are a family owned and operated company that does their best to support each of the communities that they are in by keeping their dollars local. They support numerous rescue groups, shelters, and organizations with donations, supplies, and volunteer time.
