Early next year, Fauna Pet Supply will officially open its doors in the Town & Country Plaza in Cazenovia.
According to owner Catherine Saunders, the new store — which will hold its grand opening in mid January — will sell pet food and supplies and offer a self-serve dog wash.
Each $10 dog wash will include the use of the grooming tub, brushes, blow dryer and four towels.
Bio-Groom Shampoo & Creme Rinse, ear cleaner, paw balm, fragrance, dental gel, bandanas, and extra towels will be available for additional costs.
“Fauna is unique due to its personal touch,” Saunders said. “We love meeting the animals and helping their owners find the best way to take care of their [pets].”
Saunders, who grew up in Cazenovia, is a lifetime pet owner with experience professionally pet-sitting and volunteering with a cat adoption agency.
“This is my first store, although I’ve worked a bit in retail,” Saunders said. “We decided to start the business because it felt natural to work with animals.”
Fauna will be open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
