Ava's Pet Palace

Rita Reimers on Pet Life Radio

Ava is a typical 14-year old. She loves her family, her friends, and her pets. What is amazing about Ave is that she is the 14-year-old Founder and Chief Pet Officer of Ava's Pet Palace. Did you read that right? Yes, 14!

Having always loved animals and with a passion for helping them, Ava created her first business plan when she was 6 years old! WOW! Two years later at age 8, after asking and asking, her parents finally decided to make Ava’s dreams come true, and Ava's Pet Palace was born.

Ava’s Pet Palace has happy customers in all 50 states! Her mom has been able to leave her job and work for Ava's Pet Palace full time, shipping hundreds of bags of treats each month.  Let’s talk to this extraordinary girl, who we believe has even bigger things ahead.

BIO:


Hey guys! I'm Ava, 15-year-old Founder and Chief Pet Officer of Ava's Pet Palace. I’ve always loved animals and had a passion for helping them. When I was just 6 years old I drew my first business plan. Two years later, after asking and asking, my parents finally decided to help me make my dreams come true with Ava's Pet Palace!

I started my business because I wanted to create a healthier world for our pets, planet and people. That's my purpose. I love pets, the same way they love us. That's why my treats are made with simple, organic and all-natural ingredients. To keep pets happy, healthy, and feeling great. My treats are nutritious and delicious. And pet-parent approved!

For me, healthy food has always been about organic and natural ingredients. I've been purposeful about this from the beginning. When I was baking treats in my kitchen, we only bought and used organic ingredients. Now that my business has grown, we work with bigger kitchens and they use only the best, high quality ingredients. And we've worked super hard to finally become USDA Certified Organic!

My business really took off in June 2020 thanks to so many people who shared my story on social media. Ava’s Pet Palace has grown into an amazing community of pet parents, animal lovers and animal advocates. We all share the belief that all pets (in our homes, living in shelters, or even homeless) deserve lots of love, kindness, and the best nutrition. I now have happy customers in all 50 states and my treats are in over 200 retailers nationwide! With the help of my mom, who works for Ava's Pet Palace full time, we ship hundreds of bags of treats each month.
