Our Story
In the year 2000, a little girl named Molly dreamed of one day having a pet shoppe better than the rest in her town. Even at the young age of 12, she knew she could give critters the care they deserve, and her father knew it too. Inspired by the twinkle in her eye and heart on her sleeve, Gayland Bourland left his career in furniture to make his daughters wish a reality. Almost two decades later, it’s no surprise that Molly, now with a degree in animal science, has joined her father in running Noah’s Ark Pet Shoppe. Even her son, Elijah, is in on the gig, providing love and care to the future pets of Effingham. With amphibians, birds, and furballs galore, we have everything you need to make your child’s dream come true.
