Gustavo Pinha and Ileana Ramirez, two local entrepreneurs with a passion for pets, are pleased to announce the launch of their new pet food and supply business, Pet Wants Weston.
Pet Wants’ specially-crafted, private label pet food formulas are made in small batches with fresh, natural ingredients enhanced with vitamins and minerals for a complete and balanced diet in every bowl. Pet Wants Weston offers multiple blends of dog and cat food formulas as well as healing salve, calming balm, anti-itch spray, paw wax and more. The Pet Wants Weston boutique at 1720 Main Street, Weston, Florida, will open in April, but their mobile service, which is available now, serves Weston, Coral Springs, Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Cooper City, Davie, Sunrise, Plantation, Southwest Ranch and the surrounding areas.
Gustavo and Ileana have two fur babies – a 2-year-old chocolate Labrador named Harley and a 10-year-old Jack Russell Terrier named Lexie. Gustavo also has a daughter named Lorelai who also shares their passion for animals.
“When we added Harley to our family, we did a lot of research on how we can have Harley and Lexie be a part of our family for many, many years to come. What we found out is that a pet’snutrition is the most important part of a long and healthy life. We tried working with our veterinarian and visited many pet stores, but we couldn’t find a food we were happy with. One day our friends told us about Pet Wants and, as we did our research, we were impressed with ingredients, the mission and the company. We know there are other families out there like us and we are excited to provide them with a better option for pet food and other pet products,”
Pet Wants has a 100-percent, money-back guarantee on the freshness and quality of the food and the company only sources the best salmon, chicken, lamb, brown rice and other ingredients available. There’s no sugar added, no fillers and no animal by-products and Pet Wants never uses corn, wheat, soy or dyes, which makes the food great for animals with allergies.
Ileana is originally from Chicago with parents from Cuba and México. Gustavo was born in Brazil and grew up in New York. They met in Virginia and, right away, found that they both loved pets and both had a desire to move to Florida and to be small business owners. When they had the chance to open their own Pet Wants boutique in Weston, they realized it was the opportunity they’d been looking for.
“Our mission is to help pet owners with their babies’ nutrition and to help the communities’ pets in need by organizing events with local shelters, animal rescues and animal lovers in general. We both left corporate jobs to follow our true passion in life, which is to help 4-legged fur babies live the best lives possible. We are super excited to start our new business – and our new lives – here in Florida,”
