Case study Pet shop Angaston

For Pets Sakea warm, upmarket rebuild for an Angaston pet shop.

Manda’s pet shop at 24 Murray Street, Angaston. The shop first opened in 2013, and Manda took it over as owner in 2025. We rebuilt her website in the look she chose herself.

The people behind it

Meet Manda

For Pets Sake first opened its doors on Murray Street in Angaston in 2013. Manda worked in the shop for a few years, fell for the regulars and their pets, and in 2025 she took it over as owner.

Her focus is Australian-made brands, local makers and small businesses: at a rough count, around 95% of the brands on her shelves are Australian, and about a third of those come from South Australia.

The problem

A website that dated back to the previous owner.

The shop’s old website dated back to the previous owner and hadn’t been refreshed in years.

Manda wanted something warmer and more upmarket, and she had already put together the layout, fonts and photos she liked.

The solution

Warm and upmarket, in the look Manda chose herself.

We built the new site from that: butter and olive colours, an elegant serif for the headings, her own photos of the shop and her own words throughout. It lays out all 13 categories and the brands in each, the treats and special orders, the loyalty rewards and a simple order enquiry form.

We also moved her domain away from the old host, so forpetssakesa.com.au now sits with us, with her shop email carrying on as normal. The site went live on 5 October 2026, and we spent a morning photographing the shelves for it.

Getting found

We set up the local search groundwork, including shop schema with the Murray Street address, hours and map pin, so pet owners in Angaston, Nuriootpa and Tanunda can find her.
