    I paid $30 to use the self-serve bath for my dog and was disappointed when there was no shampoo or conditioner. The filter for the blower was covered in fur as well. The water worked great though. $30 to hose down my labrador wasn't worth it.

    Went to petco during a trip to find some cute outfits for my Fox terrier smooth. I had his measurements with me but no measuring tape, a very polite and intelligent employee help me out by measuring the clothes with a one dollar bill. He really went above and beyond to provide the best customer service ever.

    I could not be more unhappy with the grooming services I received for my dog, George, today. I specifically asked the groomer to leave his body hair long and only cut the hair around his face and paws. His hair was cut so short that his skin is exposed on his underside. On top of being incredibly unhappy with his haircut, the person checking us out initially charged me for the wrong dog. They supposedly voided the transaction on my credit card but did not instill confidence that they actually had appropriately refunded me. I will be anxiously watching my credit card in the coming days to ensure the erroneous pending charge drops off. When I received my receipt for the actual transaction, I was charged $25 for a holiday package that had not been shared or discussed with me prior to the service and am still unsure what that package entailed. A very disappointing experience overall and now my dog has the shortest hair possible just as we're going into the coldest time of the year.

    We called to see if it was necessary to make an appointment for the self wash, they said no. We got there to the check in we wait for 15 mins no body came, then an extremely rude woman arrived. You have to have the vaccine perfect for that day, if you are missing one day you cannot do it. Which I understand but the way they talked to us and another lady that was there was rude and disrespectful, I won’t leave my dog there ever

    ⭐ 1 Star — Discrimination and Unprofessional Conduct at Petco On10/26/2025], I arrived at Petco for a grooming appointment I had booked and paid for in advance. Upon arrival, I was told my appointment “did not exist,” despite showing confirmation and proof of payment. The employees on duty were dismissive, rude, and unwilling to assist in resolving the situation. As a transgender customer, I experienced discriminatory and prejudiced treatment that was both humiliating and unacceptable. The staff’s tone and attitude made it clear that people who do not fit their standard of “normal” are not treated with respect or fairness. Attempts to contact corporate support were unsuccessful — the phone lines and customer service process appear deliberately inaccessible. I am demanding a full refund and will be reporting this incident to the Better Business Bureau and relevant consumer protection agencies for discriminatory practices.‘….
