    There’s a lack of cashiers. I waited too long just to get a bag of food. I tried to use a coupon I received via email. The coupon doesn’t state that it needs to be printed, but when they scanned it, they said it had to be printed. In other stores, when employees notice a line or a waiting customer, they take over the cash register to help move the line. I didn’t see that happening in this store.

    Staff is very friendly and helpful. They assisted me right on schedule. They also explained everything for me to understand what was going to happen on my visit.

    I went to return a bird food. Vivian was at the register. Not very friendly, and somewhat rude. I had to get the manager involved. He was very nice and understanding. I added my phone number so I will not be questioned next time I need to exchange or return. Don't remember his name, but a nice and helpful young manager.

    Normally the PetCo in Downey is great. Today I placed an online order. When I arrived to pick up my order I called into the store 3 times for someone to bring my order out to my car and no one answered the phone. I did not want to go in to the store since I had my Mother with me who is disabled and has dementia so I didn't want to leave her in the car alone. Since no one answered I went in to the store and there was no one in line so I asked the cashier why weren’t they answering the phone for pick up orders if there is no one in line and she asked me for the order’s name which I gave to her and she gave me my order. I understand not answering the phone if you have a line of customers or are super busy but when the store seems empty and no one is in line then there is no reason why you can’t answer the phone and assist a customer!

    This store is always well stocked and the sales associates are efficient and know about discounts. Don't like the parking lot as it is difficult maneuvering around and the Gen-Z types have no concept of driving less than 30 miles per hour.
