Pet Shop Story Cheats and Tips

Collection Menu

Keep refering to the 'Collection' menu so you purchase the animals you need.

Coins

You can purchase Coins with gems. These cost 450 coins for 9 gems up to nearly 5,000 coins for 99 gems.

Gems

These can only be purchased with real currency. To bring up the 'Purchase' menu simply tap on the Gem Meter. Gems are quite expensive starting from $4.99 to $89.99 for bundles. The more you buy the cheaper the overall cost. Buying Gems is considered an 'in app' purchase and will be charged to your iTunes account.

Afghan Hound

If you do not have a lot of coins to spend you can earn coins quickly by loading up your entire shop with Afghan Hounds, which only cost 83 coins to buy and they will earn you 10 coins each every hour.

Feeding

As soon as you collect a pink 'Feed' sign will appear. Immediately tap on this to feed your pets and you will earn XP. XP are the blue paw print icons that are seen thrown out as you feed your pets. When you have the required amount of XP you will reach the next level in the game which unlocks new items in the market and earns you bonus coins and XP.

Breeding

For the best results get the animals that you are prompted to add and then purchase mates for them to breed.

Cross Breeding

When you have reached level six in the game you will become eligible to begin using this feature of the game that allows you to cross breed two animals to come up with a brand new breed.

Expansion

Make a point of expanding your shop whenever possible so you can keep adding a variety of pets to it. After your third or fourth expansion it becomes more difficult to expand because as well as paying you will need to have collected a certain amount of permits before you can proceed. To get a permit you have to have your neighbors gift them to you, you can only request permits once in each 24 hour period.

Sending Gifts

You will be able to send and receive one free gift per neighbor once every 24 hours. You cannot send gifts to community members. Make sure you collect the gifts from your neighbor as they can be parts that are needed for animals that pens require construction.

Gifts

Collect the neighbor gifts which appear in the pen in the form of teddy bears, keys, letters, rattles, bottles etc. To add bonus XP to your score. These gifts will appear after someone has visited your shop and played with your animals, each one is worth one XP.

Push Notifications

Have this option turned on when you have a baby in the nursery so you don’t miss it's placement time.

Daily Bonus

As long as you don’t break the streak you will earn a larger bonus than the day before each day you log in for five days. If you forget to log in then the process starts over at day one. A way of remembering to log in so you don't lose your daily bonus is to set a reminder on your device that allows you to log in at the same time each day.
