Pets at Home will keep its stores and veterinary practices open during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic but has closed its grooming salons.
“We have implemented all government advice regarding social distancing across our business and are fully committed to serving the needs of UK pet owners through this unprecedented period,” the company said.
The retail group has seen an increase in online orders but said orders may take up to 14 days to be delivered.
In stores, pets will no longer be on the shop floor but are being looked after in their own isolation behind closed doors.
“We have implemented all government advice regarding social distancing across our business and are fully committed to serving the needs of UK pet owners through this unprecedented period,” a spokesman said.
