- AKAlex KephartJan 1, 20261.0Stood in the aquarium area for 12 minutes with no help, asked an employee and they said they didn't know who was working that area. So no help there. Also the tanks were filthy and fish were mostly dead or had bloat. All the employees seemed like they would rather be somewhere else. Never did get help after waiting another 5 minutes and walked out to not so much as a good day or anything from the front cashier. Very sad.

- KWKim WeaverDec 20, 20255.0We really like this Petco location. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. We went there to find a cute looking post surgical cone, but all they had were the basic ones. They have an abundance of different treats as well as really cute pet clothes. We're going to try the vet service for vaccination soon and will let everybody know how that is.
