    I bought 13 fish, know at least 2 or 3 were going to die, but no all of them have except 1 died. I'm not saying it's Petco's fault they died, but it is their fault that their live fish vendors don't treat any of the shipping water, plus I had 7 fish before this, all healthy and no diseases, but now I have to treat ich in all the tanks I added the fish I ordered to. I contacted them when the fish 3 died and they haven't gave me a refund or an update. That was the 27th of June. In my opinion find a different site and do your research before buying fish online...

    I ordered cat food, bag of dry and some cans. They say 3 - 5 business days. I get an email that says order has shipped, when it will arrive, and tracking info. Click on tracking and only the label has been created. The next day I get another email saying updated delivery date - for that day! Clicked on tracking. Still only label created. I called and they tried to tell me it has shipped despite UPS tracking saying otherwise. Finally I decided to use live chat. I got a decent person and he immediately refunded my money. I had to order the food from elsewhere. Strangely, this has happened twice to me using Petco. So I won't order from them again.

    Petco has ads all over the internet searches selling Renew Gold at 24.04 and yet when you click on it to try to make the purchase Petco charges 36.99 instead. Even if you call customer service they tell you they can't sell it for 24.04 and they challenge you on where you saw the ad price, when told I saved a screenshot of it and can send it to them then they tell you if you create an account with them you will get a discount equal to them giving you the ad price. I created that account and the price still showed the higher price and the customer service person said there is nothing they can do except charge me the higher price and later send me a discount in a partial refund. I'm not stupid. No way are they getting me to click buy now at that price and trust them for the discount later.

    I purchased a baby snake and paid $227. The tiny snake was put in a box, it looked like something you would use to transport a hamster or a turtle in, with big air vents at the top. When I got home "guess what"? No snake. I went to the store and talked with the manager and of course they claim to be not responsible. Petco is 100% responsible for not using the proper container used for snakes to be transported in. Snakes are known escape artist and are supposed to be transported in a tub or a cloth bag in a box. "Google it Petco". I called corporate and the representative called the manager and told me to go back to the store for a store credit or a refund but the manager still refused to accept any fault or responsibility in the matter. Bottom line, buy your reptiles online from a repeatable source with a live arrival guarantee. Thanks.

    I have a dog needing prescription food and received it through Petco. Without any warning the order did not arrive on 7/20/23 when scheduled and 2 days later was told they canceled my order because Petco claimed my vet said we were not clients. My vet sent me an email stating on the 20th that they confirmed our pet's prescription for food so I thought we were set. It is now 6/26/23 and I thought food would arrive today only to get another email stating that it was canceled because no vet verification (which I thought was handled on the 22nd). The bottom line is that my dog has food allergies and cannot eat just anything so we have no food and I have now spent over 4 hours trying to get him food. I just found out that they do not even handle their own verification from the vet. They outsource to VetSource. Will not return to them!

    I really hate leaving bad reviews, but sometimes they can be helpful to others. I placed an order for dog food on June 3 and today, June 11, it still hasn’t shipped. No explanation why either. Thankfully calling customer service allowed me to cancel the order and do a new order with the free overnight shipping fee being waived. I don’t plan on ordering dog food from them again if I can help it.

    The groomer Kinga was excellent. However, the customer service from other dept. employees was unprofessional. I experienced biased treatment and attitude on more than one occasion there. The manager was rude and difficult to talk with when I complained about the lack of knowledge and professionalism of certain employees as well as their selective policy enforcement. It is not a good environment for certain people of color. They tried to blame me when an employee didn't convey information correctly, instead of apologizing for her poor training.

    Petco corporate needs to have a better grasp of who they allow to represent their company. I felt devalued and insulted, by the manager and these employees, which affected me emotionally. A person expects to be treated with appreciation and respect at any business entity. I was never rude or disrespectful to anyone but was vilified for no reason. I did speak to issues there that were unacceptable and was treated with contempt in return. If you're looking for great customer service where you spend your money, don't expect it at grooming, Petco, Arden way, Sacramento, Ca.

    I looked for pet identification tags that could be engraved. I need to pick them up tonight or have them delivered tomorrow. On its website, Petco provides boxes for you to check if you want same-day delivery or pick up at the local store. I clicked on same-day delivery, yet when I go to the tags Petco provides for same-day delivery, I am taken to a page to purchase the tag, and it tells me it will be delivered ONE WEEK from today. That is a far cry from "same-day delivery." I am pasting here, in quotations, the text taken directly from the Petco website, grammatical errors and all:

    "Get It Today Same Day Delivery
    Personalized Engraved Pet ID Tag
    Quick-Tag Pink Hologram Bone

    Today is May 23. Also, they have a button at the bottom of the window for "Chat." Unfortunately, when one clicks on that link, it simply refreshes the page. There is no chat. Those are at least TWO instances in which Petco is advertising something it cannot and does not deliver. No same-day delivery and no chat. What a scam.

    I have had a repeat delivery for at least a year now and in my latest shipment totaling $45, there was an item of cat grass that cost $6.64. This did not germinate and so I expected an easy experience getting that small amount back of all the hundreds of dollars I've spent on Petco's Repeat Delivery. WRONG! First I was asked to submit a photo of the grass not growing. **??? Then when I refused this ridiculous request, Customer Service wanted to escalate my request for a refund to another team. Way, WAY TOO MUCH WORK for a small amount requested.

    I have never NEVER had this experience with Amazon the few times I have had to return something and Amazon's customer service went above and beyond at least once to help me out. With Petco, you are SOL, apparently. I immediately canceled my repeat delivery and will not only NOT USE PETCO repeat delivery in the future but will NEVER SET FOOT IN THEIR STORE AGAIN.

    If your fish die as soon as you leave the store they will not reimburse you or replace your fish. They will offer you empty apologies and say, "Sorry that is our policy" even though even the manager couldn’t show me where the policy was visible for me to see. Buy online elsewhere and get guarantee. PetCo is not a fair company, very misleading policies. Also, the policy for saltwater fish is different online, they give you 7 days. Same company, two policies and you have to dig to find it.

    I am a customer at Petco. I would like to share my experience at Petco when I took my puppy to Petco for vaccination on 3/4/2023 at Petco in Montebello, CA. I have a 16 weeks old puppy and I planned to come for her rabies vaccine. I arrived at the store around 11 am and I went through the check-in process. Everything was OK by then. The only thing was that my puppy was a little bit over-excited when meeting other dogs, so she barked several times. When Dr. Denise ** preparing for the vaccines, she asked me to buy her recommended crate and collar/leash set to solve the puppy barking issue. I did not buy what she asked. Dr. Denise **'s assistant tried to calm down the dog and it somehow worked. Then Dr. Denise ** suddenly said "let me tell you how to do that" and she suddenly beat the table hard and shouted at my dog, "NO!". Then the puppy started to be scared and peed. My dog started barking again.

    Then I gave my puppy a hug, and she became quieter and calmer. At this point, Dr. Denise ** came and pulled the blue leash Petco provided hard, suffocating my puppy. Then the puppy started to bark and pee again. Then Dr. Denise ** came to insert the thermometer hard into the puppy's ear, but because of previous experience, the temperature was higher than expected. Dr. Denise **'s way of solving that issue was to spray alcohol ALL OVER the puppy's body, which was too smelly, even to me. The puppy started to be scared and peed again.

    Dr. Denise ** then came with a dog mouth muzzle to put on my puppy. Her assistant came to calm my puppy down and my puppy could calmly kiss her hand. The assistant and Dr. Denise asked me if I allowed some kind of restraining, I said OK. I thought It was fine. But then it was the time Dr. Denise ** blamed me for not allowing her to finish her job. So I requested her to act gently, because I know my dog that if people are gentle then she will be gentle. She seemed to be irritated by my request: she said she was so experienced but I knew nothing about dogs. She clearly stated that she would not provide any service to my dog. She gave me a tube of dewormer, and let me do her job. I fed my puppy the dewormer right away in front of Dr. Denise **, and she was completely calm. As she refused service, I requested a refund and left.

    After I got home, I called the Petco store at Montebello to ask when I could come for a vaccination without meeting Dr. Denise, and an employee told me she did not know. I said it was fine. But after the first call, I received an email with the visit summary: Dr. Denise clearly stated that I did not allow them to restrain the dog, and the dog needed to be muzzled. However, I allowed restraining as she ordered, and the dog was muzzled using Petco's device. The medical record was completely a lie. After reading the medical record, I made another call, angrily asking who wrote this medical record. It comes out that Dr. Denise ** wrote this note. Then immediately I decided to file a complaint with customer service. During the call with customer service, I received another email with a modified medical record, adding even more notes to list my fault; even more ridiculous, she blamed me for the two calls (she named the calls "repeated calls").

I have bought the same food twice in a week, and twice you have cancelled, leaving me with nothing to do because you have the prescription order and I can't order it at any other store.

    Petco is the worst! A year ago, I ordered some expensive prescription meds for my dog. Petco had a promotion that was considerably less expensive if you signed up for autoship. I ordered a year's supply and when they arrived, the packaging was terrible and the package was smashed. The tablets were in blister packs and some of the tablets were smashed to pieces. At this point I was not impressed. So, I went to their website and cancelled my autoship. Fast forward one year, and I receive an email that my credit card had been charged over $150 for a new shipment of the same meds. I immediately called their customer service number and talked to a female that I could barely understand. Her English was terrible. I explained the situation politely and asked if the order had shipped. She said the order hadn't shipped and I asked that the order be cancelled before it shipped and have the funds credited back to my credit card.

    She said that she would take care of it and that the order was now cancelled and the refund would show up on my credit card account within 3 business days. So today, four days later, I get a notification that the order had now shipped. I immediately called the "so called" service number and spoke to a rep. I again explained the situation and I was informed that the meds were not returnable. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was put on hold forever. I never did get to talk to a supervisor, but the rep got back with me and said I would get a refund in the next 3 business days and to just refuse the order. Unfortunately, it will be delivered via USPS and I have a mail box, so I rarely see the delivery person. This is such a screwed up mess. I don't have much confidence that I will ever see the refund.

    I highly recommend never doing any business what-so-ever with Petco. They are pathetic!

    CS department cannot transfer to other store pick up and I cancelled my order finally. Too bad for communication and take customer's money first and hold for nothing sounded reason.

I recall that it appeared he didn’t want to be there so failed to do anything more than get me out of the store. I could not return this expensive item because I did not have a receipt or was in their system. I called the corporate office and was told their system could not process a return without one of these items. That is ridiculous! They make it impossible to return items.

    Tried to return an unopened bag of dog food with my receipt that was 6 weeks old. Was told no refund or credit could be issued and the company doesn't care about customer service. The only thing the company cares about is keeping their return numbers below 7%. Contacted Corp office and still got nowhere. Told them I would be leaving them poor reviews and still didn't care.

    This product is sold as a phenomenal discount and reward for those of us who have been loyal customers. In fact this is a convoluted way of drafting money. In order to use the program you must remember each and every month to log in and "apply a credit" for the money they have already drafted from you to go towards services. If you don't log in they will not apply it automatically. If you don't log in often enough your points are voided and you get locked out of your account.

    I had difficulty with a store in the area to which I moved being unable to schedule a reasonable amount of time for 2 Yorkies (8 hours of my day is required for this to occur) and the groomer only works maybe 3-4 days a week, significantly decreasing the value of the service. I have shopped with this company since 2016 and this experience plus the 1:30 with customer service trying to resolve this has alienated me from wanting to do business in the future.

    Petco used the bait and switch scam when selling cat food through Amazon. There was a product that came up with a really good price for a 24 pack of wet cat food for urinary tract health. I ordered 2 of the 24 packs. When it was delivered it was only 2 individual cans. When contacting their customer service their excuse was that it was a product mismatch and the only thing they can do is offer a refund. That does no good for the cat that needs the food. When pushed on it, the next excuse was technical errors. To me that is a bait and switch and then their atrocious customer service did not want to provide the product that I purchased.

    Yesterday I ordered to pick up a 40-gallon fish tank from Petco in Carson City Nevada at 911 Topsy Lane. I was really excited and happy to pick it up. That was the closest one to my home 45 min away without traffic. That afternoon I head down the mountain with a friend to Petco. When I entered the store there were three cashiers and a busy store. All three cashiers were away from their registers and talking, I asked where I would go for an online pick-up and was directed to the front corner of the store. There were a couple of other items I wanted but instead decided to load my tank instead. I let the cashiers know I was ready and that I would need some help. I was literally told to wait by your items so I did.

    A man proceeded to come around the corner at the same time as a woman went into a bin-type thing grabbed a large bag of dog food and started toward the door. He looked at me as if I was doing something wrong and snapped at me to wait for someone. I am not supposed to be there to pick up my items. I stood there kinda shocked by his attitude and demeanor. He said a couple of unkind words to the girl with the dog food, turned around grabbed the tank by the edge of the end panel almost hitting me. I said nothing I was kind of fuming at this point.

    I have a wheelchair lift on the back of my SUV and had to pull the pin to let it down. I am handicapped and have a service dog. My friend is handicapped also. I did not bring my scooter I thought it was a front-door pick-up. He slammed the once again and swung the tank around. I Said, "do not do that it puts stress on the side of the tank!" He slams it down on my chair lift and starts to walk away, as he is walking the tank starts to fall. I told him he did not have to be so rude! He then starts screaming at me that I am rude! and called us a couple of ** under his breath. A couple who were just entering the store turned around and asked if we were ok, and who that guy was. I told them an employee, they said what a ** and went back to their car. I went in and by this time my friend and I had maneuvered the tank into my SUV.

    When we were done we were both upset in pain and shocked at the treatment we received. I then went into the store to ask for the manager. They all 3 gave me different names!! As they are saying this the guy comes around the corner and starts yelling at me. One of the girls says he is the manager. I ask for corporate and I am told to look it up, and he then confirms it and says “What are you going to do about it? These girls are my witnesses!!!!" I told the one girl, "I was sorry you have to work under these conditions" as she was apologizing for what was happening when another cashier said, "I like our boss. We can get away with anything!?

    Thankfully I was able to finish my shopping at Petsmart. The customer service at Petsmart was amazing, I spoke to the manager and told them how impressed I was with the customer service, and even wrote a letter to corporate thanking them. They gave me 10% off for the troubles I had at your store!!! As we tell people and post about your Carson City store and our experience I sort of feel better knowing I am not the only one who has stopped shopping there. It is ok to miss a sale or pay more not to shop at any Petco again. Sincerely Pat.

    I have gone to this Petco on 117th in Beaverton Oregon for over 30 years for all our pets and will now never go into another Petco again unless they fire their current groomer and notify me. Dani, Petco's only groomer at this Beaverton location refused to groom my golden retriever unless I paid extra for a "de-shedding shampoo". When I responded my golden did not need that, but maybe just extra brushing, Dani responded that she would not do that because my golden may get "brush burn". She then told me to go somewhere else. I can't believe Patrick, the manager on duty backed up her treatment of a long time loyal customer. Petco needs to educate their employees on customer service. Don't waste your time here and just find another place to groom your pet.

    Two weeks in a row I attempted to purchase fish for my pond at the Hanover Pa. Petco. I was told twice that they would not sell me goldfish or koi because it was too cold outside. I explained that my pond is not natural and I have it temperature regulated and the day in question my pond water was 68 degrees. They flat out refused and the store manager told me I needed to take a picture of a thermometer in the pond to prove that the water is warm enough (essentially calling me a liar). If and when a customer service representative reaches out to me I will be happy to provide proof of the water temperature (even though I shouldn't have to). I expect an apology at the very least as I should not have to be vetted this extreme to buy goldfish.

    I had been a member of Petco's Pals Rewards for an entire year. I buy online and pickup at the store, due to the pandemic. First of all, the promotion to save 15% if I buy online and pick up in store is ridiculous, because I went to the aisle and looked at the price and I was literally only saving $1 - due to a yearlong "promotion" from the manufacturer that is in store only. Hmm Then, I mentioned how sad it was the prices of dog food have gotten so high... and he mentions the buy 7 bags and get 1 free deal. Well, unless he told me, I would not have seen this as it is not on the website. It is only available IN THE APP. ONLY. And needless to say, Petco would not honor the 6 large bags of dog food I had already purchased as a PALS member. Just because of an app. I remember Pet Supermarket had a similar deal but the cashiers actually mention it all the time AND no app is required. So, I'm done throwing my money away at PETCO.

    I had a horrific experience with Petco this week. In good faith I ordered a special gel for my cat online (with in-store pickup). After picking it up, I realized it was the kitten formula not the cat formula so I asked the store if I could exchange it and they didn't have the cat formula so I called Petco to express my disappointment and was told I had to go to another Petco to exchange it so I did and that Petco employs a very hateful and nasty manager who refused to let me exchange the item despite the cashier confirming it was purchased the day before. The power-tripping jerk of a manager kept insisting that I provide a receipt knowing full-well online orders do not produce a printed receipt. I tried to pull up the emails on my phone and my phone was not displaying data while in their store so I asked about connectivity issues and if I should exit the store to pull up the email containing the receipt and he said no that it was my phone and everything was fine (not the case).

    He took the kitten formula gel and threw it and then refused to exchange it for the cat version of the gel formula and then refused to give back the kitten formula until I had to beg him (he enjoyed every minute of this and as a minority woman I left the store in tears). I called Petco and they promised to overnight the correct formula but then never followed through and have refused to address this issue. I have asked them for a refund and am not getting one so I had to ask my bank to put the charge into dispute.

    This happened because one store incompetently filled the order with kitten formula instead of the cat formula and the other store refused the exchange. A lot of my time was wasted and Petco doesn't care. What is saddest is that my beloved cat who really needed this gel is not getting it. I will never shop at Petco again. That manager has a serious attitude problem and he provoked me and kept at it until I became very upset. He treated like a criminal and humiliated me in front of his staff and other customers because he enjoyed belittling a minority woman. This nonsense needs to stop! Petco has done nothing to make this right.

On February 4, 2022 (Approximately 9:25 am) I received a call from Jennie to cancel the appointment. The reason being was that the appointment was made online on the Petco site in my account and it was the last appointment made. Jennie stated that they booked too many large dogs and therefore my pet's appointment had to be cancelled. I explained to Jennie that the dog was in NY and I was out of state. I went on to request for her to call my daughter, who has the dog and would need to not only know but to reschedule the appointment at a time of her (my daughter's) convenience. Jennie said that she would not place the call and that it was my responsibility. I stated that since Petco was not honoring online appointments and she was able to make an appointment it would be justifiable for me to ask her to call the NY (my daughter's) number.

    I explained to her that my daughter worked and I did not have access to her schedule and I was afraid to ask her to use the website since the appointments are not honored. Jennie refused after spending approximately 5 minutes on our call (time that could have been spent making a call to rearrange the appointment). After about eight minutes on the call I finally merged my daughter in. Really Petco, you inconvenienced me and did not attempt to resolve an issue created by you.

I message them in chat or call them on the phone and they are SO helpful and professional. They have had to cancel an order for me because I can’t wait the 10 days to see if the order ships. They cancel it really fast without any issues.

    Then I have to call all the vets around me hoping to find my dog's food because she can’t eat any other food, ever. Again that’s not Petco’s fault. If you see your order sitting there pending just message them and ask why! If it’s because the maker has no staff, that’s out of Petco’s hands. I’m extremely impressed with Petco and appreciate them.

I didn't cancel. I called them a few times and I get it's because the product is out of stock. But if you can't provide the product, note it as out of stock on your website. Today I went to the PetSmart site and they had the products in some of the local Las Vegas stores. I found a couple of stores, ordered the food for pick up and I now have it.

    The PetSmart site seems to have updated product availability because at one store they said only 4 available and at other stores you could get more. It's a pain to got to multiple stores, but at least I'll know the product is there. I've crossed Petco off my stores to visit.

    Absolutely horrendous experience with Petco. I placed an order of canned cat food in December. Order got canceled. I spent an hour on the phone with a supervisor. I had her place an order for me online to make sure the item was available and the order got through. I waited for another week and found out that was back ordered too. So I bought a different brand and apparently that was back ordered too. It's been 2 weeks and my cat still doesn't have canned food.

    It's an incredibly frustrating experience each time talking with Petco trying to resolve the issue. Just got off the phone with Lorna, who repeated herself like a broken record "item was back ordered, no supervisor available, please have the expectation that there's nothing else we can do." I used to be a loyal customer to Petco. This is the first time I've had an issue with my order and this is the kind of treatment I get as a customer. You can be sure this is the last time I'm dealing with Petco.

I made an online appointment for my dog for a full bath and hair cut service on 10/2 and when I went in that day, they said they couldn’t see it on the system, I even showed them my confirmation text message that has the time and date on it, their reply was, "We are too busy today," and send me home.

By the way, every staff at this petco store (coralville, IA) were mean, you can tell none of them really love animals and they all seems like they hated their job.

    Anyway, I showed up the next day and gave my dog to them for the grooming service. When everything is done, when I ready to pay at the check out, the person even asked me for tips. Wow, that’s professional!!! I asked the groomer is everything ok? She said yea, everything is good. When I took my dog home, I realized there’s a huge deep cut right at her stomach and she is bleeding badly. I was so piss and I couldn’t believe they didn’t say anything. When I called the store, no one answer the phone and I don’t even have the option to leave a message. So, I called their hotline and they said their manager will give me a call back tomorrow morning because there is nothing that they can do now!! Anyway, pictures speak louder than words, you guys just take a look at those pictures.

Not only was order NOT DELIVERED next day, but 3 days later it’s still not here —in fact, it has NOT EVEN SHIPPED YET!!!! Four days later and my items are still sitting in the warehouse. To top it off Petco is REFUSING TO CANCEL THE ORDER, telling me I can take it all to a store near me, once they do deliver, to get a refund. No, I can’t… I am disabled with a 5lb lifting limit; that is why I buy online and have it delivered. So, I will simply file a dispute with my credit card co so that payment is not released, seeing as how my order has not even shipped yet.

    Will now place this same order with AMAZON, knowing I’ll at least receive my order by the date promised. (Only chose Petco as they promised NEXT DAY delivery on those items vs 2-days thru Amazon.) This happened once before with Petco, but it will never happen again; they admittedly have no control over the shipping process. And due to their refusal to help (twice) when order screw-ups were their fault, I will never shop with Petco again.

    Petco, Warren Rd., Westland, MI Location! This used to be our go-to place for our furbabies...NOT anymore! Every time we had our dog get a nail trim...it was an okay job and they were always great at fitting us in. With Covid19 it takes forever to get into the vet for anything, little lone, a nail trim...so Petco worked in a pinch. The reason it was an okay job was because after the nail trim there was an unfinished stray piece of hangnail or sharp edges left behind or and nails uneven. It was frustrating but after a walk or two the nails filed down. I decided this last time to ask for a trim plus the file to prevent this problem. BIG MISTAKE! The result was much worse!

    We felt terrible as we trusted Petco and had lots of errands to run...we drove around with our furbaby in the back seat noticing him licking a paw then pulled over to find blood all over our back seat!!! I called Petco (we were already driving right back there) and reported our poor furbaby was bleeding from the quick! I let them know we were heading back so they could see and apply a powder to stop the bleeding. When I entered they ignored us and after a few minutes acknowledged us saying..."be with ya in a minute."

    To which I replied, "He's bleeding and I just spoke to you...he needs help!" After another few minutes, she called another groomer to the counter..."Ya wanna take care of this?" Our furbaby was petrified! The groomer tending to the wound blamed it all on our furbaby saying, "He's a puller! That's why this happened!" Furious, I explained we've been bringing our furbabies here over the last 2 decades and NEVER had this happen with a nail trim...however, we never had the upgraded ($5 more) nail service before!

    The title pretty much sums it up, as a pet store Petco is the worst possible option. The employees rarely have even a basic level of knowledge of animal caretaking needs, and the animals in the store are kept in terrible conditions. They are also bad about where they get their animals. Some of the things that they are known to do:
    -Inject glass fish with dyes to make them more colorful (this usually kills them a few weeks after you buy them).
    -Keeping reptiles in improper conditions that result in sickness/death.
    -Importing wild caught animals that are sickly and ill suited to being pets.

    -The mammals such as the puppies are often sourced from puppy mills (or equivalent), horrible facilities with incredibly high death rates.

    If you want a pet, do not get them from petco, supporting them only leads to them continuing to abuse animals. I would suggest instead finding a smaller local pet store, or smalltime breeder. They are one of the worst companies around, and unless customers stop buying from them they won't bother to stop mistreating/killing animals.

At the time of my purchase, items were in stock. After nearly a week, I received an email saying they were having trouble contacting my vet for approval. I emailed a screenshot of my dog's medications with the dog food on the list and I reached out to my vet personally. My vet said that they didn’t receive ANY communication from Petco at all.

    When Petco finally did ship my order, they only shipped half of it and needed 10 days to find the other half. I find it unacceptable to wait 3 weeks for an order. I would have ordered it from somewhere else if I knew it would take 3 weeks. Their customer service was less than helpful. Sometimes the same apology Over and over doesn’t in fact make it better. I told them to cancel my order, but of course now I have to go to the store to return the half that shipped this morning. The inconveniences of making calls to the vet, emailing documentation, all the time on the phone with “customer service”, and now returning the half to the store added up.

    Needed clear aquarium sealant and checked the Petco website to see if they had it in stock, yes for pickup today. Once there I couldn't find any. Asked for help and the manager pointed to black sealant, said that's all they have and left. Tried to get her to check on the exact item I wanted but she wouldn't. I tried to explain the website shows it is in stock but she said that is online not the store. I showed her the website has it as in store pick up today but she again said that is only if I order it. I asked what if I order now? She said then we would go to the stockroom pick it and email when it is ready. OK but why can't you just go pick it now? She said because they don't have any. If she wasn't so rude about it I would have thought maybe she is playing a joke on me. I left without the sealant. So much for trying to support local stores.

    My cat loves to go outdoors. This Harness and Leash makes it easy for both of us to sit on our porch or patio without fear. It took some work to figure out the perfect one for her with the ease of getting on and off her by me. The team at the Frankfort, Kentucky store always has the answers. I trust them and enjoy being helped by a team that makes you feel so welcome. Thank You, Elizabeth, Alison and Motley. You know they say three heads are better than one and I agree.

    My cat was prescribed a certain food that Petco carries. While attempting to verify the prescription, I asked my veterinarian why they hadn't responded to the confirmation request. My vet said they would only respond directly to certain sellers and provided me with a written prescription. I contacted Petco via the online chat and was instructed to scan and submit the prescription form and order number to their intake email address (PetcoVetDiets at petco.com) and it would clear the issue (needing a prescription). Fast forward to today when I receive a notice from PetcoVetDiets that my order has been canceled. I guess I'll have to re-order through a supplier my vet supports, or at least pays attention to the emails their customers send. Not Happy! :(

    Today I had the worst experience ever with Petco in Vallejo California. I had scheduled a grooming of my dog. At the time of scheduling my appointment I was very clear that the vaccination certificate (in English) was from a Costa Rican vet, but that I also had the label from the vaccine bottle as required to come back into the USA with your pet. I was told, "No worries. We have someone who speaks Spanish" (not that you need someone to speak in Spanish), it’s all dates, lot numbers and the title of manufacturer.

    The women who reviewed my documents; first said this is not a Rabies Vaccine, I showed her the label, which matched the Rabies Certificate, then she said she doesn’t read Spanish not that there was anything other than the vet's name in Spanish, plus if you don’t read Spanish then why are you saying there is no Rabies Vaccine? The label clearly says Rabia (ok that’s Spanish) so let’s google it. Then she tells me we don’t accept anything that is hand written.... ok the label is not hand written and Rabies Certificate is not hand written. Listen I get it.... Some people attitude about being in the USA and it being an English speaking country.... but come on the virus is in Latin and it’s the same in any country.

    It was clear to me that I was dealing with someone who either woke up in a bad mood, or just doesn’t like Spanish speaking people/documents. She then tells me I needed to have it translated.... so does this mean I can go home and type it out in English not that anyone could not figure it out on their own.... with just a little common sense or I am sorry maybe we can Google the label and see what comes up.... I invite anyone to do this based on the labels (Biocan LR) if you don’t want to I included a picture of what it is from their website which is in English and a European Company. NOPE she was not having it, not going to look up anything and not going to read the labels. Despite all I did in advance I was treated like **.... even the customer behind me was shocked by this.

    Soooo I guess this is one of several things.... don’t go there and let them know you speak Spanish, or your documents from another country won’t work despite it being required by the USDA and acceptable to our government or it’s perfectly ok for someone in a bad mood to just be rude and awful.... I plan on calling their corporate office to discuss. This could have been easily fixed and resolved in 3 minutes but her attitude was NO WAY is she going to look anything up.

Each call was at least 40 minutes. I will NEVER order again from them. I would advise using another company.

    DOCUMENTING: Petco on HK Dodgen/ Loop 363 Temple, TX. January 30, 2021. 2:30pm. Grooming Dept. I took my two Chihuahuas to have nail trims. A client with big dog that had just been groomed was exiting. That dog's fur was all over the floor and the one main gurney. Three young women are working the grooming area. The one sitting at the computer check-in counter asked for my phone number to look up my account. I gave it but said, "I'm not sure I'm going to do this today--a nail trim. Are you all going to clean up all that fur, at least clean it off the gurney?" She said, "Oh, yes. We will clean it up." (They never did while I was having nails trimmed on my two small dogs. The entire floor area and that main gurney remained dirty with much fur debris.)

    A young woman with yellow-blonde hair came from behind the counter to the tiny ante-room area and asked, "Which one first?" I asked if we could do my 9-year-old Chihuahua first because the longer he has to wait at a vet clinic or grooming place, his blood pressure shoots up, and the whites of his eyes turn red. I also said that the last time I had brought him in, even though it may be against protocol, I was allowed to hold him with all 4 legs facing the groomer, and that made it easier on him while having his nails clipped. I asked if they would allow me to do that again. No response from any of the three employees.

    The young woman (with yellow-blonde hair) took my older dog's left hind leg and started with the outermost nail. My little dog gave a long scream of pain and struggled to get away from the woman, who had let go of his leg. I asked her what happened. No response. After I had given him a few seconds of a breather, I said to this employee, "Okay, let's try it again." After she finished each leg, I said, "Let's give him a few seconds to breathe and re-calm himself." But then, I noticed fresh blood on my left hand. I showed the employee and asked what had caused that. No response. Blank facial expression. Then, I noticed blood up and down my left long sleeve. I showed her and said that he must be bleeding. I asked her to help me look at his feet. No response, verbal or action, on her part.

    I told her more emphatically, "Help me find where he's bleeding." As I tried to spread his toes apart, she did finally look more closely with me. The blood was between two nails and toe-pads. Wordlessly, she went to get the yellow powder to apply to stop the bleeding. I asked her what happened. No response. I asked again, immediately, "Did you slip the clipper underneath that particular nail and maybe, accidentally, cut some of his pad?" She finally spoke: "That nail was embedded in the pad." Incredulous that would have been the case, since I had last brought him in for a nail trim in either late November or early December (and knowing that I would NEVER let my dogs's nails get so long as to become embedded in their pads), I said, "What?!" She repeated her statement.

    Meanwhile, more incredulously of me, I handed over my 2-year-old Chihuahua and picked up my paperwork to go out into the store to pay my $21.65 bill. I had my older dog with me. Writing my check, I told the clerk that I was shaking badly, showed her all the blood on my long sleeve, was upset, and wanted to speak with a manager.

    The clerk called another woman to speak with me. We moved to the back of the store where she gave me a chair to sit. I told of what had just transpired. I told her that the blonde employee stayed mostly silent and unresponsive to me, giving me passive blank looks. I said, "Maybe she didn't verbalize anything with me for fear of a lawsuit." I assured that would not be my intent.

    The woman said, "Yes, we do have liability issues." This woman kept repeating that since she wasn't present, she's not sure of what happened. I asked her if she would please go get my other dog so that I, with my older dog, would not have to go back in there to the grooming area. She left to go do that, saying also that she needed to talk with them about what had happened.

    She returns without my other little dog. I ask where is my younger dog. This woman says she's fine, someone will be bringing her out to me. Then, she says they don't want me to bring my dogs back here for nail trims and that they request that I take my dogs only to a vet for nail trims...take them somewhere "official" so that if something happens, the dogs can be treated there.

    I said, "So you are asking me not to come back? ...well, I wasn't planning on ever bringing them here again. What did the blonde woman tell you happened?" This woman said, "She just cut the nerve because the nail was long and thus, the nerve had grown longer." I replied, "Well, she's giving now a different explanation. The one she gave me is of a more serious nature because it would mean that I have been so negligent as to have allowed one or more nails to become embedded in the dog's pads."

    Then, I told her I wanted to give an additional customer comment, feedback, about how filthy with fur debris the grooming area is. I said that earlier I had asked if at least the gurney would be cleaned, was told yes, but they didn't clean it. I asked this woman, "Shouldn't a gurney at least be cleaned before setting a new dog up on it?"

    This woman told me that she didn't know; she asked a nearby female employee who said 'yes.' I then asked the woman with whom I had been speaking, "Wouldn't you know that, as the manager?" She answered, "Yes, they are supposed to clean between each pet." I asked, "What position are you? What is your position, your job title?" She told me something about 'merchandise services.' I said, "Well, I had asked to speak with a manager. How may I do that?" She told me his name is Scott and that he wouldn't be in the store until mid-week."

    As I'm leaving, the young woman at the cash register tells me cheerily, "Have a nice day!" I showed her my bloody sleeve again and said, "Not so nice, do you think? And now, I've been asked not to bring my dogs in here again to the grooming area--as if I would have even considered doing that after my dog screamed in pain, was bleeding, and I got no 'I'm sorry' or anything resembling an apology."

    To be clear, my little dogs have had to suffer occasionally a nerve being cut and therefore, bleeding. That, unfortunately, can happen even with a conscientious and kind and gentle groomer who trims pet nails. My major complaints today are about everything else...no verbal or non-verbal responses when I spoke to or asked questions of the groomer; no responses from the other two women working in that area; unattended fur debris on the floor and gurney with no effort to clean up the mess before putting either of my dogs on the gurney; telling me a nail was embedded in the pad and giving a different explanation later; no kind attitude shown toward my older dog after the incident; nothing resembling being sorry for the incident from either the three grooming-area employees or from the so-called supervisor.

    Placed an online order. Went to return it in the store. Currently they are not accepting returns under the umbrella of COVID. I am all for keeping the public and employees safe. I asked about a free return label. In store and on the phone I am told they are offering it. When I called to process the return today, I have spent 90 minutes on the phone, have been disconnected 5 times and denied access to a supervisor. They tell me this is not the case so I should just hold the products until they accept in store returns. In the meantime, I have products that are of no use to me and they have my PALS rewards and my money. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

    Even worse, I posted this on their Facebook page and while the response was prompt I am simply told what the script they read from dictates...Hold the product until the in store ban is lifted. What is wrong with this picture?! While Petco may be where the pets go, the point corporate is missing is that the pets don't take themselves there and discounting the value of the owners results in lost revenue.

    An employee refused to sell me an inch long feeder gold fish because she felt the size of my fish tank would not be ethically appropriate once the fish had grown larger. I was also told that I would need to prove that I was putting the fish in a tank that the employees deemed to be ethically safe for the 20 cent feeder fish's long term well-being. The long term promise to size up the tank with the fish's needs was also not a valid form of proof.

    I was not offered an application of adoption for this feeder fish with a spot for a signature and my address or a background check, so I'm not entirely sure how they gauge proof of my ability to care for a feeder fish. I feel as though this employee refused to do business because she didn't like me as there is no actual process for fish adoptions or legal process to verify that my home is safe enough to house an inch long feeder fish or that I had the resources to continue appropriate care long term. I don't believe a credible business would let employees refuse to sell its products at their own discretion based on personal opinions or belief systems so I am insulted and confused.

They are even rude in the store locations too. Customers don't matter to Petco.com or Petco stores. This company just want to line their pockets with the money that they steal by not refunding or making things right with their customers. I have never had any issues with PetSmart at any time. They treat their customers like we are known by them & they have always made things right with me so far.

    I don't recommend Petco.com or Petco stores. All I asked for was a refund on an over payment for a product that was not going to be received next day like I paid for but is coming on the day that was the original day of delivery on the website for my order. So I am paying over the cost of what the product would be because they refuse to make this right & refund the extra $. My product was only going to be $ 11.79 but the next day fee made it way higher. The $ 11.79 is including the shipping without the next day delivery fee if I got it on the original day of Tuesday which is when it will still be coming by the way, but I saw they offered next day so I paid for that next day delivery. The next day delivery fee was over $14.00 & I'm not even getting my order next day like I paid for. Don't patron this company or business. They will cheat you & not make it right. You are nothing to them.

    I have had nothing but problem with Petco online services when it comes to ordering the needed meds for my dog. Their auto reorder had issues when my CC expired and they could not advise only recommend that I cancel and restart the order. This creates a new process when coming to drugs that require vet approval. A new Script even when you have numerous refills on file with the old script. When you call Customer Support since they are not in the US they do not understand what you are claiming and thus only know how to read a script. In the end they attempted to charge me almost double what they quoted me for the simply refill. I still do not know if I will get them in a timely manner or what, but I do know I need to go to my local vet and pay for a refill to be safe. Sometimes saving money is not worth the headaches is the lesson I learned here. I will not be using Petco for anything based on this experience.

    My husband placed an online order May 25th for dog food and a mistake was made due to a glitch on the website and the wrong dog food was ordered so my husband called immediately to have them fix it. The rep wouldn't help me saying it was too late. The order already went to the shipping department and they couldn't do anything about it. My hubby asked for the manager and they escalated the call and he spoke to Lisa who pretty much said the same thing and also said she could cancel the order but it's not a guarantee it would be stopped and couldn't guarantee a refund. She offered no solutions and basically told us it's too late when we called no more than 5 mins after the original order was made.

    I was angry at her poor customer service and shinning on my husband and said there's nothing they can do so I called and had them escalate the call and spoke with Phoenix and she said almost the same thing but suggested a few options on how we can fix it and offered a free bag of food for the inconvenience. I let her know my husband was on the phone with Lisa trying to get help. Phoenix spoke with Lisa and told her to adjust the order to the correct bag of food and NOT cancel the order and to send us a free bag for free for the inconvenience. My hubby continued the call with Lisa and I ended my call with the other rep now that the order was supposed to be fixed.

    We were told it was going to be $** dollars and we'd get a free bag. We got over charged and we got the free bag. My hubby called around 3 different times wondering what's going on and again no help, no solutions, and being put on hold for over 1.5hrs collectively for all 3 calls. All were escalated or was told a senior rep would call back and that never happened. Finally he spoke with someone and was told they would refund the difference for the overcharged (and we still think we're waiting on the 3 bags of dog food we ordered.)

    Days later he sees they refunded all the money. He tried several more times after that to find out what's going on, we got the free bag of dog food and were wondering where the 3 bags are and why did they refunded us the whole amount. No one could give him a straight answer and they would put him on hold or told he'd get a call back. He's still waiting for anyone of those call back. So I start calling cause we're running out of dog food AND ALL WE WANTED WAS OUR ORDER. I got the same treatment. And everytime I call no one can give me a STRAIGHT answer or I have to hold so they can review their notes or even worse customer service told I have to hold so they can write their notes when nothing has been resolved and now there just wasting my time. I've gotten hung up one while on hold for several min and no one called me back.

    I started taking the names of people I spoke with. Jason lied to me and said, "Your order will arrive tonight," per the tracking info he was looking at. That was on June 1st. He gave me a tracking that doesn't exists and NO delivery was made. I would ask for the reps' names and to spell it and I would be ignored hung up on or refused. I was told several times I couldn't speak with a manager or that I was speaking to someone in the cooperate office. I've spoken with Phoenix, Lisa, Wenty, Lynn, Jason, Yzett, Michaela, Miaty and a few more. I didn't get their names. I was continually put on hold, told someone would call me back (I'm still waiting for those calls) I'd be passed around, lied to, and never get any help or resolution.

    THE REPS WERE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT WRITING THERE NOTES THEN HELPING ME WITH MY ORDER. Someone had canceled my order instead of refunding the difference like I mentioned in the beginning they refunded the whole order, never made a new one and sent us the free bag. Now it's been a few weeks and the price of dog food went up and I wanted my order at the price it was when I ordered it.. Not the new more expensive prices,, it wasn't my fault a Petco employee canceled my order and I shouldn't have to pay that price, especially when both my husband and I have been calling asking what's going on and no one could tell me the truth.

    June 6th, after speaking with another horrible rep I got transferred to Lynn and had to explain everything for the hundredth time. She told me she would put in the order for the original price and she gave us a credit on a future order. I set up auto monthly to get a discount and gave our credit card info and we're charged the next day. Lynn said we would be every 7th of the month. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT! It was that simple and going on 3 weeks now of lies and boom just like that I got the resolution and help I needed. Or so I thought… It's now the Jund 18 and still NO DOG FOOD. I want to pull out my hair. This is RIDICULOUS!

    For almost a week the tracking info said ready to ship. I again called and spoke with someone that said it would arrive tonight by 9pm. I was charged on the 7th and I have to wait till the 18th for an order I originally put in May 25th. And all the b.s. I put up with, time ice spent..wasted trying to find out what's going on and where's my food. The worst experience ever! Words don't even describe how angry I am. I hope the dog food shows up tonight like they said it would...but I won't hold my breath.

    Over one month ago, I ordered a recurring delivery of three cases of prescription dog food per month, from Petco. After waiting and finally picking up extra cases of food from my vet, Petco sent me an email saying my order was cancelled. I emailed back and said I would not do business with them again, and that I would order the food from a different company. One month later, Petco emailed me saying my order had been shipped. I called to remind them they had cancelled my order and I was now on my second delivery from a different company. They said my order had only been cancelled for one month, so I reiterated that my order was to be cancelled permanently.

    When their delivery showed up on my porch, I called my local Petco and explained I am in the high risk group for Covid-19 and asked to return the shipment via curbside drop off. They told me to call customer service to arrange for UPS pick up. Customer service said I could go to UPS and pay to return the dog food to them. Next I called an operator at corporate headquarters, who said she would relay my message to a corporate manager and I would be hearing back shortly. I have not heard back. Dealing with Petco is frustrating at best. I have now enlisted the help of the BBB.

She is still recovering and confined in a room until she heals completely. I notified Petco of the problem in hopes that they could stop production or find some way of keeping this from happening to other cats.

I contacted Petco 3 times to obtain a credit for the cat food not received and was given the run around all 3 times. Finally the last time I was told that I would receive a credit, and made sure I copied the conversation for proof. Yet, I STILL do not have the credit I deserve for the cat food I did not receive. The other thing that bothers me about the whole order is that my card was charge for the whole order all at once and not just the portions that were actually shipping like Amazon does.

I said I'll accept the first item but cancel the remaining item. He said he could do this and repeated everything back word for word. He would refund my card. This process took close to an hour.

    I then received an email that the next item shipped and no refund. Again I spent 56 minutes on the phone, with someone in Philippines that was in training and didn't speak good English and didn't have an identification number.

    We have recently purchased a bag of "Whole Hearted" dog food from Petco in Tucson, AZ. We purchased the dog food on April 4. Since switching our dog to this food, she has been throwing up and suffering from loose stool -- on a daily basis! It has been 10 days, but these issues have not subsided. Contacted the Petco store, and they mentioned that I could bring the dog food back for a refund. I explained that I no longer have the packaging (we put the dry food into a large plastic bin for storage). They said it would be okay with a valid receipt. I did not have the physical receipt, but I had the receipt number, store number, purchase date, and the amount. Purchase was linked to my Petco rewards account. They refused to take the food. Compare this disappointing service to Chewy.com's service. With Chewy, I was allowed to receive the refund without sending the food back. I would be told to donate the food or discard it if it went bad! Not happy...

I looked up my account on their website and saw that the delivery was backordered, but Petco never notified me. When I called, they just kept saying that they had 14 days for a back order. It took an hour on the phone with a representative whose English was terrible to finally get them to understand that I needed some form of the k/d food (any flavor!) right away and eventually got an order placed. Even then they don't have prescription food set up with refills, so every order needs to get Vet approval. And since it needs vet approval, I couldn't even pay for expedited shipping.

    I signed up for repeat delivery for a medication for my pet on their website. By the second month, I had found the same medication for repeat delivery for much cheaper at another website that was listed on Petco's website as one that they price match. I called customer service and, after waiting FORTY FIVE MINUTES, was told they don't do price match if you're on repeat delivery (even though it says "price match guarantee" ON the repeat delivery page). So I said ok, I'll cancel repeat delivery and do a one time purchase with the price match, because even paying for shipping it would come out cheaper.

    The lady said she needed to "check with her manager" for something and put me on hold again for another 10 min... just to then hang up on me. I got the strong vibe they just try everything they can to not honor their price match "guarantee" they put on their website. I cancelled my order and got repeat delivery with the other website, whose customer service was leagues better than Petco's. Two stars only because I got the first month of my medication for a discount (which was still more expensive than other websites anyway).

First, I tried to order from Petco.com.

I asked them before I ordered the item if it would arrive in gray, and I was assured that it would. So I placed the order. I messaged them again after purchase to remind them that their ebay listing description said the item would be gray so I expected to receive one in that color.

    A few days later, my box arrives and the item is PINK!!! Petco deliberately lied to me and I am PISSED! Why would I have paid $6.99 in shipping on eBay to get the same pink item I could have gotten from the local Petco and then got it same day for the exact same price and without paying the outrageous shipping?!

Petco is one of the few stores that carries this in little bit formats.

    Have been shopping at Petco for the last year. I currently have a 55 gallon fish tank with tropical fish. The Petco staff has been very helpful with tips and information on how to maintain the aquarium, fish selection and plant selection in order to maintain a healthy tank. Petco offers discounts on a regular basis for filters, fish and chemicals and to buy some item in bulk quantities.

    When I first started to setup my aquarium, I had looked at selecting specific types of fish based on color and temperament of the fish; guppies, tetras, angle fish, etc. When I start to process, I spoke with the staff at the Petco store in Hillside and they took the time to ask questions about what type of fish I wanted and the size of the tank and filters. They also explained the importance of which fish would get along and how many fish I could have in a 55 gallon tank. They took me through the steps of getting the tank ready for the fish by testing the water and training how to maintain a healthy ecosystem. I continue to shop at the Petco store and seek advice about my aquarium. I would highly recommend This store.

I took it bag and got a full refund without any hassle. The only problem I have had is some wet dog food I got there that was not sealed properly and at least one container went bad. I did not take it back as I believe I had thrown away the receipt and didn't want to take the time.

When I asked for the fish I wanted I was questioned and advised I can't do this and that the pleco will outgrow my tank. Oh really!? Well thanks for the heads up because I didn't know this. Actually I have done my research on what I want and I've had fish for over 15 years. Funny how I was questioned on fish.. When the customer ahead of me purchased 2 turtles and not one question was given to them about where they were going to live. Just boxed them up and handed them over.

    Plus how long do your bettas live in those little containers. That's a great home for them while they wait for someone to buy them. But question me who would provide a great environment for whatever I purchase. Maybe your employees should ask some questions on if you are new to fish or something like that before just assuming everyone who walks in your store is an idiot.

    I find either very knowledgeable helpful employees some of the time and then the other times I am never lucky to even bump into anyone to help. There is always the cashier, but not able to help when only one there.

    Clean bright and well-organized store with a huge selection and friendly people. They helped me set up an aquarium for my classroom and let me know when their floor models went on sale. Their salespeople are a great resource and very knowledgeable. They are happy to answer questions and help you find what you need.

    I get my roaches from there. It's the only place that has them close to here. The main problem I have is the availability of the roaches and any bugs from there. Sometimes when you buy any bugs from Petco they are a poor quality. Their lizards look to be in good health and they do have a variety for cats and dogs.
