Petco's reputation reflects a mix of strong product offerings and significant customer service challenges. Many customers appreciate the wide selection of quality pet supplies and the knowledgeable staff, highlighting positive experiences in-store. However, negative feedback frequently centers around grooming services, delivery delays, and inadequate customer support, particularly regarding online orders and returns. Complaints about poor treatment of pets during grooming and unresponsive customer service have led to feelings of distrust among some patrons. Overall, while Petco is valued for its product range, its customer service practices require substantial improvement to enhance customer loyalty and satisfaction.

Nice location nearby and like the selection of higher grade cat food and really liking the walnut litter.
Watch for coupons. They have some good ones
Nice people too
I shop almost every other week at Petco for mostly dog chews and chews that clean my puppies' teeth. Everyone is always so very helpful. Everyone is always very friendly as well. I would highly recommend Petco to everyone for their pet shopping needs.
I have been a Petco customer for years. No more.
My local Petco did not have my dog food and the store ordered it on line, with a 2-3 day delivery. I paid in full by debit card. The food did not come, so I cancelled the order and returned to the store where it was back in stock.
Now Petco on line refuses to refund $34.99 for the order. I have spent way to long on the phone with a representative who wants my bank statement to prove I paid. I sent a single line from the statement as the rest contains personal information which is none of their business.
The whole situation is infuriating. Petco made an error and I have to prove they did. No longer is the customer correct.
I am in the auto ship for dog food and several times I have had to adjust the frequency of my delivery, it is so difficult to get someone that speaks English, you get Sonia from the Philippines or Jenny from India, and just because they change their names they think they can help but NOOOO sometimes I have had to wait 4 days for a call back so I can speak with an American agent, this overseas people have no clue as to what to do and is frustrating that the whole experience can be awful, this is another example of the Corporate greed we are living.
Great finds. Good quality brands of dog food... And cat food. Lovely displays. Easy to access your pets needs. Good deals. I bring my pets in so they can also have a say in deciding their favorites. Pets are welcome. Good service store; and friendly staff.
Bought all available dog training on 1 day sale, Introductory Puppy training through Canine Good Citizen certification. After 1 class trainer fired. No replacement trainer provided. No trainer made available for over 3 months. Store offered 2 alternative training sites. Each one was 40 minutes from my home, which was unacceptable travel time, gas and car wear and tear! Money was returned, but I was cheated out of all the half price training I should have received. Caused huge delay in getting my dog training started! I will never go back to that store! They were unresponsive and disrespectful!
I bought cat and bird stuff on petco.com and it was great food until my cat had a grain allergies not petco fault but I still get stuff sometime for birds and toys
Hello Everyone,
Petco is a good place to shop and has some great price's but I shop at PetSmart. They both have a variety of dog food as well as toys for them. There staff is there to help.
I love my pet supplies on their website. They are good with their delivery and they do carry everything that I need. Their sells are better good and I like the discount cards I get in the mail. I had to call customer services one time and they they very good in helping me with my order. I love not having to carry the big bags of food.
Like its competitor, Petsmart, Petco is a one-stop shop for most pet needs. Peptic always has what i need, and staff are courteous and helpful.
Ordered two different bags of Royal Canine cat food. Siamese and Maincoon. Got one bag but did not receive the other.
I do not order from PetCo regularly, but a while back I needed a new light for my aquarium. I almost didn't check out their site because I figured they would be more expensive than other online stores. Boy was I wrong about that. They had the best price for what I had been looking for. Their shipping was fast, everything came in good condition. So from now on I will check with their site when I need something again that is pet related.
I finally found a pet store that is so knowledgeable and the staff is so friendly. I tried pet supermarket, and petsmart. They never crack a smile or have no knowledge. The atmosphere is so cold. Kudos to petco! I will definitely do business with them again!
It's not y'all. It is the animal mill like where the animals are shipped to petco they abuse and kill animals every day look it up on YouTube on all the videos and i'm not purchasing anything until y'all stop selling live animals! Look up Petco and Petsmart mill abuse. And you will regret what you saw
While I have shopped at Petco for dog food and some supplies, recently I have been shopping at Petco a lot more and have nothing but good things to say.
For me I usually shop at my local Petco and havent purchased much from their online store, however, Petcos products are always very nicely made and a pretty good price if youre part of their Pals program. If youre not part of their Pals program its super easy to join, however, if you dont want to the prices are still quite fair in comparison to other pet stores. My local Petco is SUPER clean and well kept up, something I want to see in any pet store I will even consider shopping at. As for the quality of products within the store, I think just about everything they carry is very nice. Now, of course, I havent actually tried every single product Petco carries, however, through looking at what I see on the shelves, hold, and some have purchased, theyre all quite nice. While my dog sadly doesnt play with toys Im never really in the toy aisle, however, Petcos online store holds many cute dogs toys and if you read the reviews youre sure to find something nice.
I personally havent purchased live aquatic life from Petco, however, seeing from how theyre cared for at my Petco they seem pretty nice. Also, along with fish and whatnot we have small animals which look well cared for and healthy.
I have included photos of some things I have purchased through Petco, all are not recent purchases but go to show how well made their products are. Recently I also got my dog some cow ears from Petco which were very nice and she loves them.
Overall, the products that Petco offers is very nice and its a great place to shop for your pet.
As for the grooming at my local Petco, its very nice. Ive only taken my dog to the groomer a few times but every time she comes out looking nice and well groomed. While I cannot speak for all Petcos around the nation, my local Petco has a very nice grooming crew.
Found some great deals at Petco for my cat and the customer service was very helpful and attentive. Maybe that's just my local Petco but I go regularly and have good service always.
They have young girls in the grooming dept and they always cut my pugs nails too short, I stopped going there after I heard my dog crying from across the store. I was buying $60 worth of dog food a week, they lost a customer.
I really like using online Petco because our brick and mortars are staffed with twits.
Any and all online orders Ive ever made were shipped for free or inexpensively and the price was good.
My frog died and i returned the tank with no complaints. I may puchase later but petco was very nice about it as i felt aweful. I will continue to but my dog food and cat food. Nice friendly people.
The Baytown Texas store was clogged with pallets on 'freight night' while they took their time stocking shelves. Had to move them to get to dog food and dodge them to get to cat food. Store manager (no name tag) said that is what his boss insisted on so no hope for change. I contacted Petco on internet and then called and was promised a call back that never came. Cannot wait for Petsmart to open and dump this unfriendly bunch of liars.
Answer: Chewy.com is cheaper, faster and much better service.
Answer: IMPOSSIBLE! Stinks. Cannot get beyond call center.
Answer: It took them 8 days to ship my order & it arrived damaged. I called them for a replacement & that to was damaged. Called again & they asked if I wanted a refund & I told them no, I want what I ordered.
