- SHScott HildrethJan 20, 20265.0very friendly quick to help
- KGKaren GarrisonJan 17, 20261.0“If you don’t like what we have, go to Theisen’s and let them help you!” I was told this on my last visit to Ames PetCo. I won’t be back.
- 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.

- LSLaurie ShinnDec 27, 20255.0Every person I’ve talked to or interacted with has been fantastic. Thank you
