    I arrived for a pickup there was a customer line and a register for pickup only . The senior citizen working the register didn’t feel the need to tell me I needed to be on the regular customer line to retrieve my pick up order ( that defeated the whole purpose of ordering online for pickup). Even after he had a break in customers , I still didn’t get a simple “do you need any help ?” I found a lovely young lady working in the back who immediately came to the register and retrieved my items . He then looked and mentioned I should’ve gotten in line for pick up . No it’s time to retire and let the joyful workers take care of the customers.

    The increase of Purina wet cat food prices is pure greed. $2 for a 3oz can? The solution to ending inflation is to shop elsewhere.

    I don’t think the store itself it’s bad I’ll say it’s good But what is not well is the groomers that they complain about vaccines due dates, they trying to find a due date in the paper work, making funny faces and complaining only for not having a due date vaccine in the Pepe work, as a profesional grimmer not need a due date writing in the paper work, just figure out,

    I like everyone but that short blonde owner. She is rude and didn’t help me at all. Spoke to me very disrespectful. I know she don’t get paid enough to act like working at petco is top tier doing more than her pay grade. Some people take these jobs too serious.Feel bad for the workers

    My dog is always very anxious about grooming. I had the best experience here. He looked great. Deanna even got his nails done. She took her time with him and made him into a handsome boy once again. Downside why it didn't get 5 stars- there was another employee who I have concerns about if you could reach out to me personally I'll explain.
