PLEASE NOTE: This review is for shopping only…read more I always prefer to support local, but after two failed attempts at going to independent pet stores that didn't carry any rabbit stuff (actually, that's not true, one place showed me their rabbit stuff, e.g. the dog food that contained rabbit meat and the dog toys that contained rabbit hide/fur... awkkkkkkwaaaard) I stopped at this PetSmart in need of back-up hay; I found the usual Oxbow (don't buy their hay; it's bad, bad, bad), but also the in-house Full Cheeks brand (which I can't speak on yet). Picked up a 40oz bag of it, my rabbit's usual bedding, and my rabbit's usual treat for the same price I pay for it online (and, actually, it was $10 cheaper because they were having a small critter sale). While this won't become a regular stop for me, it was a quick experience made pleasant by the very friendly woman cashing me out!

I am not a cat person, severely allergic. But I wanted to get Loki, my mom's cat's nails trimmed,…read moreso I made an appointment at PetSmart. Loki isn't great about cat carriers, and he is one of those cats that you think loves you until he claws out... So Lindsey was the groomer and, while I was fearful that Loki might act up - she reported that he was the best. (I privately wondered if maybe she switched him... but once at home he was the same). He had a dry wash and brush - and his coat is awesome and he smells great - plus his nails are nicely trimmed. Yay! My only downside was a lack of understanding how the process works - and check out was a bit slow.

That being said, we were very impressed by this place. As a greyhound owner, finding a safe & enclosed place for the hounds to run can be difficult. The facility here has a perfectly sized fenced-in field that provides enough space to allow for some serious running. We met the owner and she was very welcoming and seems very knowledgeable about different breeds and their needs. The couple who invited us as guests said they have been very happy with the training classes they have taken here with their hound.

Between the owners Terresa and Taylor who are just so so nice, fun and compassionate, to the rest of their staff they're all genuinely happy to see my boy Tucker and seem to enjoy what they do which is so rare. I'm never worried that the staff can't handle a situation with all the dogs in the yard which I've felt before with other doggie day cares. Taylor makes sure everyone outside with the dogs has a good calm energy, which when your working with a pack this size you need. I was worried too about the hot summer weather that it would make the turf too hot for the dogs but they do a great job flooding the turf with the hose so the dogs can cool off, they also have great frozen treats you can purchase for them to give your dog during the day. Tucker has never been happier with a daycare, nor more tired when he comes home, which to me and I'm sure most dog owners is the sign of a successful day. Thank you A1K9.

I went in to look at fish with a few friends, and while walking past the entirety of the fish…read moretanks, we saw graveyards and tragedy. At first, we were seeing some cheaper fish, then soon realized that if you are a cheap fish, your likelihood of survival is low... there were near 60 deceased fish in total. They were floating upside down, sucked into shreds in the filter, stiff and lifeless bodies in piles in the corners... In addition to this, there was a very large fish shoved behind a filter also lifeless! Lastly, the goldfish tank was an absolute monstrosity. It was foggy, dirty, no food present, no light in either their tanks or their souls. We actively watched two goldfish die and drift off in the water. I'm disgusted and disappointed Petco. Vicky lied straight to us, saying that these fish were recently checked on and someone is with the fish, cleaning their tanks every day. If this were true, the graveyard in the corner with fish dead so long their eyes were gone would have been removed correct? Anyways, astronomically distrusted.

Terrible experience at this Petco. We had just moved to the area and needed to get our golden…read moreretriever groomed. We made an appointment on the same day online, as there was availability, for a wash and trim. When I came in, the tech working with us was approachable. She asked for his record for rabies vaccine. I showed her his vaccine list, which included "rabies vaccine, 1 year" and the date that it was given - clearly not expired. The tech responded "not good enough I need the certificate," in a very rude tone. This was news because I've never had a tech need this information when confirming rabies vaccine in the past since it was Very clearly listed, but okay. I called the vet and got the certificate and showed it to her. The tech was also disgruntled because she thought he was only for a bath and seemed upset upon rechecking his visit was actually for a bath and trim. During this time, the tech decided to inspect my dog and said he had an ear infection. I mentioned that goldens can very often get inflammation in the ear but doesn't mean there is growth of anything. (This has been an ongoing problem with my golden). She needed to get a second opinion from her manager. At this point, I could tell the tech was just fishing for ways to get this appointment cancelled. I stated we were just gonna cancel and leave. She then mentioned that it was best because vet visits can go to 6000$ from an ear infection complication. I wasn't aware that groomer specialists doubled as vets in their spare time. I am a professional in medicine and can say this is just untrue. Kind of my last straw at this point. It was an unfortunate visit as it seems like they just didn't want to work. I don't want her to touch my dog so I will not be visiting this location for grooming services again.

She loves the 'games' Katie has introduced and doesn't realize she is learning while playing. She even files her own nails.
