"You Are What You Eat... For Our Pets as Well"

With so many options for feeding our pets, enriching their lives with a quality food that can promote good health, Krista Schmidt seeks to share natural pet foods with the pet community of Saint Petersburg. She created St. PetersBARK!, a pet market offering a full-scale selection of healthy dog and cat provisions paired with incredible customer service. Today, the pet market is packed with hand-selected natural food (whether raw, kibble, canned, or freeze-dried), treats from local vendors, and pet accessories. 

In this episode of Hustleburg, you’ll hear how Krista went "city shopping" in Florida to find the best place to start her business. Saint Petersburg's small business-friendly environment and vibrant pet community drew her, and she launched St. PetersBARK! in 2015 after a year of making all-natural dog treats in her home. 

Passion for the health of our pets also includes hosting a low-cost veterinary clinic, nail trims, and non-anesthetic dental cleanings on a regular basis. 

Passion for their customers includes an annual BARK!toberfest Customer Appreciation Event, expanded to be three days in 2020 to ensure a COVID-safer experience, October 9-11. This Facebook event offers even more information about this year's event.
