Petco had changed since I first started visiting them, they are definitely meeting the demands of pet service and goods. There's more Vetco, training & grooming availability. Grooming has clean grooming and products available now. One of my pup's favorite line Stella & Chewy is available now at Petco as well. Staff has turned around, the current manager there is so helpful and kind. The current trainer, Theresa is awesome! After interacting with them randomly at the store, I decided to sign my pup for training classes again. read more

This Petco does not honor the online prices in-store -- even though it's the same company and same products. The store prices are significantly inflated, and the staff refuses to make price adjustments when shown the lower Petco.com listing. Tip: Save yourself the frustration -- order online for in-store pickup instead. You'll get the real advertised price, skip the attitude, and avoid paying more than you should. read more

Came here the other night looking for a replacement dog ID tag. Found this cute blue bone ID tag to replace the missing name tag. The engravement machine was easy to use with step by step instructions and easy visuals to understand. You have buy the tag first, locate the code on the receipt to enter on the machine and select your choice of font style. The machine allows you to enter up to 4 lines on each side. I only selected 1 line on both side of the tag- name and contact phone number. read more

I order the dog dry food from petco two day before, and I received the food expire day is 11/22/2020. Normally we're order from chewy, it's first time order dry food from petco. My dog don't eat the dry food, so We usually use the coffe blender grind it to the powder, when we finish whole bag two blender is broken, and I see the expire day is 11/22/2020. When I call petco ask if I didn't check, if my dog eat, Who will bear this responsibility！Petco just repeat we already refund the dog food money to you, don't want to answer my question! I mention that now is not this problem, is Who will bear this responsibility，then petco only repeat we already refund the money to you. I'm so angry, why petco do like this! I will never every order from petco, hope people see my message and check everything from petco! Don't let you pet( family members) eat the expire food! read more

GROOMING MANAGEMENT IS UNPROFESSIONAL! This review will only be for the grooming and not the store in general. If your dog is over 9 years old, don't bother coming here. I made an appointment over the phone to get my 12 year old Shih Tzu groomed two weeks ago. I came in today for my 9am appointment and I was sweating already because I was carrying my 17 lb dog. The groomer, Kristen looked at him and asked him how old he is. I said almost 13 years old. And then she goes and says that she doesn't groom dogs over 9 years of age due to the stress. WTF!!!! Why are you telling me this now?!?! Then I asked her why did they decide to take my appointment. And she said that it depends on the groomer. So that means that when you make an appointment for a senior dog, you have to hope that the groomer that is working that day will take your dog. What an effing inconvenience. I even confirmed my appointment a few days and a day before. And NO ONE informed me about that policy. Petco management, do better!! I'll still continue going there for dog food and toys. But grooming, look elsewhere! read more

Would give 0 stars if I could. They don't have Nulo for cats (only dogs) and no Made By Nacho, two brands I can usually trust PetCo to have. The place is completely trashed, stepping on trash & dust bunnies everywhere, shelves empty. Wasted gas and time coming here instead of PetsMart expecting them to have the same selection I'm used to PetCo having. Ugh. read more

this store has improved quite a bit from last review. it seems to have stocked up better and got different items. still some dead fish.. but the employees are working hard. I've given them another shot. read more

I came in the other day looking to buy a turtle & I wasn't sure what I had to buy or any info about it because the last time I had a turtle was when I was little. But the sale associate was very helpful he gave me everything I needed and info I needed to keep my pet healthy and well. I only came in this store once before this time but never brought anything. But as my 1st purchase I would say I'm very satisfied with the customer service. You guys have my 5 star across. Looking forward to coming in again to get some stuff for my turtle tank. Thanks for your help. Keep up the good work. read more

They have no carts because they were stolen. Ok fine I get that, but when you don't even offer to help your customers to their car when they have a lot of items especially some heavy ones, that is totally unacceptable!!!!! They only have hand held baskets. My daughter even asked the man at the register for help with 2 25 pound bags of rock salt and 2 big packages of wee wee pads and he told her she was good and that she could come back and make an additional trip. Obviously their staff and their management could care less about customer service!!! read more

disgusting. workers are rude. they tell me that i'm irrelevant. they are very rude and improper. this location sucks just like the way they take care of their animals read more

Walked in Sunday, the smell knocked me over! Empty and messy shelves. Will never go back. Unkempt 100%

This location recently starting to take amazon returns....except none of the employees actually know how to process one. And they also don't give out return receipts. read more

Good thing about this petco is the huge parking lot. It's is very convenient and easy to find. My complaint is that there's not much in stock here. They never seem to have the things that I'm looking for. read more

I've been coming here for years and never had a bad experience til now. Not sure if it's cause of the new staff or not but what should have been a 5 minute food run turned into a 25 minute disappointment. Red shirt employee with blue hair stepped in to help out a lady with returns. instead of sending the original employee to a new register to expedite the growing checkout line, the blue shirt employee disappears. Red shirt employee turns around, assists the lady with 8 cans of cat food and the gentleman with 14 cans and 8 packets of treats, but decides to return to the return register when it's my turn. I have two big bags of dog food and 2 cans of wet food. would have taken a minute. instead he keeps me waiting. I asked if there's another associate, he just responds "one second." after he finally completes my transaction, the blue shirt employee decides to reappear and start helping the line. ridiculous service read more

The workers at the 86 Street Store , lack experience with Parakeets, I asked one of them a question about my Parakeet laying to many eggs, and he tells me to call Long Island, Who do I call in Long Island!!?? also the floors a slippery with Dog Pee , which I nearly tripped, These people Are clueless about what they're doing! I never had this problem when I used to shop At Petland Discount!! I miss their Stores!! read more

The portion of my review isn't about the store itself but about a particular customer other PetCo patrons should be aware of. I have encountered this man, Peter (see photo) and his wife and 2 dogs previously at the park. My dog is super friendly as the PetCo staff and any other dog owner who knows us can tell you. They said their dogs weren't friendly so I rolled up my leash so my dog can't stray from my side and stood to the very edge of the path to let them pass. However, the wife screamed "Are you fucking stupid? Move you moron!!" while her husband called me "you stupid slope faced cunt!" All because I didn't step into the dirt and give them the entire pathway, which is more than wide enough for all of us to pass without their aggressive dogs getting close enough to bite mine. As her 6ft tall husband walked past, he chest bumped me (I'm 5ft tall) and told me "go back to your country you fucking Chink!" and his wife yelled "I hope my dogs bite you!" Everyone who shops at Petco should know who these racist misogynists ar. Peter walks a white dog with a black head and spots while his wife has light brownish blonde hair and walks a white Shih Tzu sized dog with brown spots. Store Review: Most of the staff is friendly and they recognized my dog and stop to pet and talk to her all the time. They have a wide selection of goods and is great if you need something in a pinch. But you can easily find better prices online if you can wait for delivery. read more

Keep your dog away! My girlfriend brought our Whoodle (Wheaton Terrier/poodle) for a grooming session. Samantha the pet groomer butchered and shaved all the hair off my dog! I just wanted two inches off-a trim. She buzzed him and Petco charged us! if she is a professional groomer why Did Samantha buzz A designer dog?! you don't buzz a dogs hair in the winter?! Especially if the dog doesn't shed-he's hypoallergenic. This is our first dog But The groomer is like a hairstylist and should have mentioned it and gave recommendations. Anyone can buzz a dog! Now my poor dog is without any hair and WE have to buy sweaters and t shirts to help and cover him! read more

Terrible customer service. Curly haired dude with glasses at the register was more interested in flirting with a girl who was obviously uncomfortable than moving the line along and checking people out in the ever growing line. i was trying to buy temperature sensitive items and by the time i got out they were already beginning to thaw. Never coming here again if this is the service i can expect. read more

Came here to get a Betta fish. As I walked in I heard an announcement saying "at petco animals come first". I started looking through the different Betta fish and found three that were dead!!! One of them looks like it had been dead for days since the water is very dirty. This is just disgusting. How hard can it be to change the water and to feed these animals and to at least realize which are dead before the customers see them. I understand one could've just died, but three? And all are still there in their plastic containers. Obviously I left without purchasing anything because I won't support a store like this that clearly doesn't put animals first as they say. read more

Petco - Horrible. 3 dead betta fish - Pet Stores Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

sheepshead bay Brooklyn. There is always urine and feces in the aisles because no one walks the floors to clean. Dont bother telling the manager (tennille) like I did because apparently she doesn't care and doesn't take pride in her store. She doesn't care about your pets catching anything from the urine and feces left behind from other dogs. The store is only clean with petco higher up visit. read more

Unprofessional management they could care less about the animals or customers Unprofessional dog trainers Overpriced Animals are not in great shape Cashiers are nice Selection is good but over priced Had an issue requiring a refund from corporate for crappy dog training - trainer missed half the sessions and they refused to give me another they jerked me around for a refund for two months and ended up giving me a gift card I'd rather go to boggy doggy petland or paws truly or animal pantry on 86th st read more

Petco 2601 86th Street is listed as an Amazon drop off center for returns. When I went there, their staffs told me they did not have the labels to print and thus was unable to process the return. I went on Amazon to change the location drop off to another retailer, only to receive an e-mail from them later in the day indicating "abnormal activity" on my account and that I would not be permitted to proceed with and receive a refund unless I "upload a valid government-issued identity document on the secure customer portal" that would be used for an investigation. All of this because Petco on 86th Street was not responsible with maintaining adequate supply of printing labels. I hold this store liable for costing me the amount for the item I am now unable to return. Unless you want to go through the same experience with having your account restricted by Amazon, avoid this location for drop off returns as if it was a person unvaccinated for Covid-19. read more

With 2 cats and a very tight schedule, I take note of every Petco location I pass by in case I need to make last-minute food runs. I don't live in Bensonhurst/Bath Beach anymore but I'm still in the neighborhood on occasions. I was initially excited to see a brand new Petco in the area. The store is well-organized and clean. However, it is very small and carry a limited selection of items for mainly cats and dogs. The last time I was in the store, they seemed to be out of stock on many items. So when I was shopping for an automatic pet feeder, I made sure to call first to see if they had any items in stock. The sales rep who answered the phone was very snappy and rude--she even raised her voice at me! Do not bother with this Petco location unless it's an absolute emergency. read more

I have called several times for a grooming appointment for my puppy and they don't return calls. You leave a message and they don't call back. One time I spoke to someone and she said they would call me back the groomer called me back several weeks later claiming my message was just left on her desk. I have started using another Petco a couple of miles away from my home because they have responsible employees. read more

Good place to buy some of your pet supplies. I get my Shih Tzu's wet food here because science diet is always cheap or on sale. I also get her toys here and dental treats. The one thing i do not buy here is her dry food because it is over priced, also do not get the heart guard or frontine because it is also overpriced. Your best bed is to go to target or a supermarket for dry food and to to your ved for the medicine because they usually give a small doscount or a free month's dose read more

WYNTER W is the worst groomer here !!!!! Her attitude is disgusting, I came here to get my dogs nails trimmed, and I called before I came in just to make sure there taking clients , when I came in one of the other employees went to get her to let her know the dog was here and I heard her say " never mind , I changed my mind I'm not going to take her anyone because I'm not in a mood" and she walked away ,( mind you I have not once approached her yet), then I asked the other employee for the manager, once the manager came I explained to her what happened. Nothing was done but she needs to be FIRED !!! If she doesn't like her job she needs to find something that makes her happy and stop being miserable at work ! I still am going to take further action and speak to someone higher up . read more

I was so pleasantly surprised when I visited this store after seeing negative reviews! Not only did they have a variety of nerite snails while it seems everyone is currently sold out of the pretty ones, they aquatics staff was so knowledgeable and helpful. Kevin specifically was so kind to every customer he helped, and made sure people had done their research about what different aquatic pets need in terms of space, food, and tank mates before selling. So refreshing to see!! read more

Great service! Thank you to Yesenia for all the help! Didn't hurt that she was cute too!

Okay, so, I love my cat and I love petco, it's like my happy place. I used to go to the one in Union square and get stuck their for hours. This petco is relatively smaller than others and doesn't have some of the products that I find in other stores which earned it one star deduction. The next comes from the employees, whose temperance and person-ability is kind of lacking. On my first visit the girl at the cash register kept getting frustrated because I'd asked to pay using two cards. She must have thought me and my friend didn't see her rolling her eyes and looking st the other cashier while we talked together and checked out. The second time I went there the cashier was pretty pretentious when giving advice on taking care of my cat. I know we all love animals and everyone's passionate who works there, but there's a way to communicate without being condescending. Especially when it pertains to something as small as the consistency of food. read more

Loved their dogs. They were spicy and had nice flavor. But a recommendation, add some good sauces and you're golden. The meat is tender and juicy when made right. Barbecue sauce is nice to add before you begin baking. The cats are alright but everyone comes here for the dogs. read more

It takes a lot for me to write a bad review but I just had to because the service I got at this petco was absolutely abysmal. To everyone planning to buy their first reptile, stay far away! I came in to purchase a baby leopard gecko for my little cousin. After raising my own leo for 7 years I figured this would be a good pet for her. Walking into the store I was unable to find an employee to assist me after walking around. After speaking to the cashier he was able to get assistance for me. Soon afterwards an employee showed up and asked me several questions about my tank and setup. She asked me how big my tank was, if i had a basking light, if I had a UVB light at home for this reptile. LEOPARD GECKOS DO NOT NEED UVB LIGHTS NOR DO THEY NEED A BASKING LIGHT. What they do need is VITAMIN D3 which can EITHER be supplemented through vitamin powder (Repashy is a reputable brand), OR UVB lighting. I dust my mealworms in multi vitamin powder which has D3 before feeding which works absolutely fine. Leos also DO NOT NEED basking lights, they need heat mats because heat under their belly helps them digest food, having light shining down on them hurts their eyes! I tried explaining this to the employee which later turns out to be the manager in charge. Her response was "I can't sell you this animal unless you buy the UVB lights for it". She went and showed me the care guide, which states Leopard Geckos need UVB. Please Petco, they don't NEED UVB! They need VITAMIN D3! This is unacceptable and shows a lack of knowledge for animals they carry. I get where she was coming from, she just wanted a good home for the little leo but please, I've stated clearly that owned a leo for a little over 7 years so do not treat me like I have no clue what I'm doing!Imagine being in my shoes and hearing all of this, wouldn't it grind your gears?! It really rubbed me the wrong way. Thanks Petco but I do know how to take care of my pet. The fault lies within the company ultimately. I left the store with the uvb light (which I no doubt will be returning because I do not need it) and the gecko. I'm sure this place is fine and dandy for cats and dogs, but to anyone interested in owning a reptile- STAY AWAY! read more

On March 19th I took two of my dogs to get groomed by Kristen P. As she groomed my babies I shopped around Petco. Not even 15 mins later I get a call while shopping around Petco & rush to the groomers station were my baby Chewy was dead. The first story I was told was he was hyperventilating & then he passed out & the second story I was told was he wanted to lay down and she let him & he was gone. I was rushed out of Petco by Manager Jose and out in a uber over 40 mins away to the furtherest emergency vet (VERG) which was 11 miles away & not the 7.7 miles away. Petco will not release a statement. Anytime i try to go up there for answers the Police are being called on me. The manager & District Manager of this Petco is trying to cover up the fact that something happened to my baby Chewy in Kristens care. Also she is still currently working & grooming at this same Petco while the death of my baby Chewy is "under investigation". I asked Josh Ackdan District Manager of Petco how is she allowed to work with animals during the investigation of the death of my dog & he said he doesnt see that she is at fault. He was NEVER PRESENT IN THE STORE THAT DAY TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MAKE THAT FINAL DECISION. The day my dog passed at Petco I was also nearly hit & abused by a Petco employee. If it wasnt for customers stepping in between he wouldve hit me in my face & its all on recording. I am devastated, hurt, and lost without my baby Chewy. I WILL NOT REST U TIL HE GETS JUSTICE #JUSTICE4CHEWY read more

I went in to get some fishes for my fish tank at home. I went in and after about 10 minutes i know exactly which fish i wanted. I asked the associate that was working there if she could help me and she said she will be right back. I was waiting over 10 minutes and she was not back then i saw her come out and ask if she was going to help me. it looks like she was getting off and she didn't even apologize for making me wait for her when she know she couldn't help me. If she was getting off she could have let me know and not tell me she will be right back. Then there was another associate near by and she said she will help me. I was kinda mad because it just seem so unprofessional. read more
