Animal abusers
October 18, 2018

Dont go here. Do what you can at home or go to a shop where they do not leave ur dog in the back for SEVERAL HOURS. A bath and haircut DOES NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THAT LONG. They cut my dog so many times and say "those were there." They are FRESH CUTS. I REPEAT, NEVER GO HERE.

The are ok just a little more expensive on most stuff. You can find some good deals with sale items or clearance items. But they do have a good selection.

Great treats
November 22, 2018

Great treats, my german shepherd Wilson always gets super excited when a new bag of Blue Wilderness dog food comes in. Not the cheapest option, but Wilson deserves it and I'm very sure he loves it!

Another antiquated business that needs you to create yet another marginal internet account instead of using top-level single sign on SSO providers e.g. Google, Facebook

I tend not to use the website, though it is well-organized and easy to use, as much as just going to one of their nearby stores because 1) I don't feel like paying shipping and 2) you can't buy pets online, only supplies.

I am a rat owner and have had 6 in my life. 4 of them I bought at Animart and they never had problems, 2 of them I bought from Petsmart, and both times within 48 hours of bringing them home I could tell they had respiratory infections (which progress quickly in rats and can quickly become life-threatening) at the time of sale. So I ended up having to bring them back for week-long treatments at their vet.

The only reason I'm not giving a terrible review is that the rats they sold me are very sweet, and aside from the gas money and time inconvenience, the treatment for their respiratory infections was free. However, selling an infected animal once can be coincidence... but twice starts looking like more of a pattern to me.

The Pets Perks card is cool though. I probably won't buy animals other than fish there again, but because of pets perks I do keep coming back for supplies.

February 1, 2018

Sometimes it has its moments when it doesnt work... but I think overall its a great website and for select items you can have them auto ship so you never miss out on getting your pets food!

Did an online order of $60+ on a Thursday. Notification of order and shipment that same day. Issue #1: charged for shipping though promotion was free shipping over $50. Issue 2: shipments were divided into 2, so not only was I charged for shipping, but I was charged twice. Issue #3: Of the 2 packages I was sent, the one that shipped second arrived first. Issue #4: Finding issue #3 confusing I go to track the other package by the order # and tracking # I was sent via email. Can't seem to find that information, so advised to contact customer service. Issue #5: Customer Service. That was a joke.on hold 2 times for a total hold time of 8+ minutes and they can't track my package either. Advised to wait a few days to see if it shows up. No apology for delay, confusion, double charge, ANYTHING. I can always "Buy another one, abd return it when my package arrives." Are you kidding me?!? I've worked in retail for 25 years. The fact that this is considered in any way shape or form customer service is a joke.

Expensive prices
May 2, 2016

Very helpful customer service! Many times, You can find the same products at walmart (doggie treats and doggie collars, leashes, etc) for much cheaper! PetSmart can be very expensive.

PetSmart in Clive, IA
November 19, 2018

The salon portion of this facility is a joke. My friend went to take in her dog to have a full grooming service and after not being acknowledged for over 20 minutes, was told that they "normally do not work on rescues." As a company that has several stores that support the ARL, which is a rescue facility, this was appalling news. Why would you physically offer adoptions of rescue animals at your facility, then state that you do not offer service to them? Then to top it off, she was told that the vaccination paperwork she had provided did not have sufficient information because it didn't include the expiration date of her dog's vaccinations. Everything has been administered well within the year mark, and as a facility that has access to this information daily, I would assume that they would know that most vaccinations are good for at least a year - especially since the dog is only 13 months old.

I have had good experiences at another PetSmart facility, but this experience definitely puts a new view on where I would consider taking my pets for grooming services.

I brought my dog on 10/04/19 to GreenAcres PetSmart Grooming. My dog's (Buju) groomer name was Jules C. I paid $80 to get my dog (Buju) bathe, cut and to clip his nails. When I returned I noticed that they did not bathe him. When I complained I was told that the groomer Jules C had left for the day. I was so upset because I had paid extra for them to bathe him with a specific shampoo. I told the manager Lisa what had happened and she told me to come back and they would bathe this time for me. We brought him back the following day and when he was picked up he had a blood shot eye. I am devasted! They abuse Buju because they were upset with me complaining about the service. They need to be investigated and locked up for animal abuse! Please review your camera for 10/05/19 when he was brought back in.

HORRIBLE GROOMERING STAFF
September 21, 2015

I took my 5 month Morkie to Petsmart (Cherry Hill New Jersey) on September 19, 2015.On my way back to pick him up I get a phone call.

I thought they were calling to inform me he was ready for pick up. I spoke to a manager who told me, my dog was taken to Banfield Pet Hospital, because the groomer cut his back left paw pad. As a result from the cut bleeding continued. They insisted he continued to wiggle and move which resulted in the injury.

Regardless of his continued movement, HE is a PUPPY. Therefore he is going to move around especially since it was his first time. Petsmart grooming staff are COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE, CLEARLY UNTRAINED, AND UNPROFESSIONAL.

Now he has to wear a cone around his head until it heals. I WILL NEVER EVER TAKE HIM TO PETSMART AGAIN!

This is the most inept group of individuals I have ever seen. Don't ever try to return an item with a receipt and the item unopened. I've never seen such awful customer service. Don't shop here!

There is no advantage to shopping there when I can get cans
In the grocery store. I only have to make one stop that way.
I haven't seen any significant price difference.

If You actually have any issue with an order damaged or missing Items or wrong Item don't expect to get any actual help when You call the Incompetent Nothings that call themselves Customer Service Reps because You will only have to call and call and call and get one useless incompetent nothing one after the other, You are better off shopping at the Store then ordering online, God forbid if You need a Replacement or Refund You have to go through a whole nightmare on the Phone and still not get any actual help.
