History
In 1936, Herbert 'Salty' Baker started a small petstore in the basement of his home in Rumford, RI. What began as a personal hobby became a place of local pet lovers to gather and purchase a variety of pets, namely tropical fish and birds. In 1959 George Baker, Sr. built a store at 865 Warren Avenue in East Providence where it still stands, although quite differnt than the original store. In 1986, Michael G. Baker joined the business representing the fourth generation of the Baker family. Rumford Pet Center, A Rhode Island 'landmark' for over 70 years, offers a huge variety of pets, foods, and supplies along with a team of dedicated and experienced staff to serve the pets and people of Southern New England. But in order to truly enjoy the full experience, you must stop by and see it for yourself. We look forward to seeing you, and your pets.
