    I went into Petco on the Barre-Montpelier rd Saturday Nov 8th and it smelled SO BAD! You get hit with it as soon as you walk in, it smelled like a dirty rodent cage! Then I went down the rodent aisle and the smell was WORSE! The pets were in cages full of poop and the odor was intolerable! I had to leave for fresh air..

    Placed an online pickup order. Store said all products were out of stock. Within 5 minutes of that, went into the store to find the exact products in stock on the shelf. Employees would not match the online pricing despite their clear screw up of not finding the product on their shelf. Walked out with nothing.

    I wish they had better enclosures for their parrots. It always looks so sad and sterile where they keep them.

    Every time I come in it seems that a reptile is injured or in an unsafe environment. Not just this location but every Petco. This time a bearded dragons tail had been bit and was clearly infected. I brought this up to a staff member and they said they told there manager multiple time but they refused to bring them to the vet. I don’t like shopping here and probably never will
