Wow, what to say about PRC!!! First Christine is a down to earth hardworking dog loving woman. She…read morehas built a piece of heaven for these rescue dogs. Dogs that are dumped or pulled from shelters are brought into the pet rescue center, rehabilitated of necessary, receive training in basic obedience and agility as well as spay/neuter, vaccines, microchipping, and a veterinary exam. The rescue ensures the right for for both dog and owner and on multiple occasions the director has said I know you want her but this is who you need and avoided a placement that would have caused frustration for all involved. She ensures that if a dog is found every attempt is made to reconnect it with it family even when the family is sadly unappreciative of this. They have training classes to fundraise for the rescue and would love more volunteers :) I find visiting this place to be zen as I am sure the dogs do also.

We mainly use Desert Feed Bag for raw pet food but it has been hit and miss for inventory.

We will continue to support this store but will be buying our raw diet products online for a while.

Thank you, Danny!…read more This was our very first time getting a fish as a pet. When my husband, our two daughters, and I visited the Petco Indio near WinCo, we honestly had no idea where to begin--tank, fish, supplies... everything was new to us. My husband asked for help at the front desk, and we were lucky enough to meet Danny. We didn't even realize until near the end that he is the General Manager. From the very start, he was incredibly kind, patient, and enthusiastic. He explained every single detail and answered all of our beginner questions without ever making us feel rushed or uncomfortable. When he learned this was our first time buying a fish, he smiled and said, "Let's make it more exciting--I love this." And he truly did. He helped us choose a 10-gallon tank, two fish, and all the decorations, guiding us carefully through every item. I honestly felt bad asking so many questions, but Danny never once made us feel that way. Instead, he made the experience fun, welcoming, and unforgettable. Thank you, Danny, for making our family's first pet day so special. My daughter knows your name by heart now--and that says everything.

We have been taking our mini goldendoodle, Kermit D'oodbreaux, to PetSmart for grooming services…read morefor over a year now. Jaimee D is our regular groomer. Jaimee D has developed a wonderful relationship with Kermit and he looks forward to his visits with her. He has an extra curly coat and Jaimee D works out all of his matted corners without skinning him to the nubs. He gets a fresh cozy teddy bear cut each time, which grows out beautifully. This allows us to go extra long between cuts if we want to enjoy his full coated look for a month or so! We love that PetSmart and Jaimee D. are there for our grooming needs and that our little boy is happy going in and full of spunk coming home. Affordable prices and quality grooming products used!!! In response to reviews that state prices are out of control: We book online and the price is ALWAYS as stated. No surprises! It never takes longer than estimated. Today we dropped him off in the morning and we're called within the estimated time 2-2.5 hours.

DANGEROUS LACK OF TRAINING -- SPECIAL NEEDS DOG PARENTS BEWARE…read moreI will never bring my dog back to this location, and I highly caution anyone with a special-needs or senior dog against using their grooming services. My senior greyhound suffers from SLO (Symmetrical Lupoid Onychodystrophy), an autoimmune condition affecting his nails and paws. He requires regular nail trims every 3 weeks. On Friday, I checked him in at the salon, and once the groomer looked him over, was told he would be ready in 45 minutes. Minutes later, I received a phone call from PetSmart stating they were rushing him to an emergency vet because his paw was bleeding. Because of his condition, minor bleeding is a known risk that is easily managed with styptic powder--which a professional grooming salon should have readily available-and bandaging. I told them I was right down the street and to wait, but corporate policy apparently bypassed communication, and they were already transporting him. When I arrived at the vet location to meet them, I found the groomer and my dog standing on the hot, 105-degree, La Quinta black asphalt. My greyhound--a breed with incredibly thin skin and zero tolerance for extreme heat--was standing on the scorching ground with a plastic trash bag wrapped around his foot, held in place by a tightly tied ribbon on his leg. This makeshift "bandage" was not only deeply unprofessional, but incredibly dangerous, risking burns to his pads and cutting off circulation to his leg. The lack of basic first-aid knowledge, the absolute panic over a predictable symptom, and the complete disregard for the outdoor elements in La Quinta summer heat is entirely unacceptable. There is a whole aisle in PetSmart with first aid products, so I'm still very confused about why a plastic bag was wrapped around his paw. And why would anyone who knows anything about dogs have a dog standing in full, middle-of-the-day, 105 degree sun on black asphalt? After using the styptic powder available at the vet, I took my dog home immediately and bandaged him properly myself. If you have a dog that requires actual care, knowledge, or specific handling, do not trust this corporate salon. Their panic overrides basic animal safety. I seriously wonder how much training their groomers receive.
