ROCHESTER, MI — A new pet food and grooming store opened Saturday in Rochester.
Wag N’ Wash, located at 4918 N. Adams Rd., is a one-stop, neighborhood pet store that offers a full-service grooming salon, self-serve pet wash and thousands of brand name products, including food, treats, toys and other pet care essentials.
To celebrate the new location, Wag N’ Wash Rochester will host a weekend-long grand opening event on Nov. 16 and 17 with 4x rewards points available on all purchases. The weekend festivities will include:
In addition, customers will have an opportunity to win either a $250, $100, or $50 gift card and receive a coupon. For more information and to enter text “rochester” to 34653, or visit qkly.co/wnw/rochestergiveaway.
The new store is owned by metro Detroit native Mike Swader, who plans to build connections with other local community organizations to strengthen the bond between pets and their owners through proper products, services, education and supporting a healthy pet lifestyle.
The store will be managed by Chris Foster, whom Swader met while a freshman at Central Michigan University. The two have remained close friends for more than two decades.
“Foster and I are really excited to embark on this journey with Wag N’ Wash,”Swader said. “We want to create a place where employees feel inspired to work and neighbors feel welcome and supported in caring for their pets. It’s important to offer everyone the support they need, and at Wag N’ Wash, we’re committed to delivering that support to both our team and the community.”
Swader also decided that Wag N’ Wash Rochester will continuously donate to local pet rescues, adoption centers and veterinary offices in honor of his mother, whom he lost earlier this year.
