PetSmart review: not satisfied with their services! 103

The Petsmart store located in Dover, Delaware has an adoption center. This center does not complete background checks for the adoption process, just give out free kittens to owners who lack knowledge of care. The kennels are horrible, and contributes to the illness of the kittens, making them unadoptable. I have photographs if interested.

I went to PetSmart to get some Crickets for my Tarantula, and was also interested in buying a Bearded Dragon which I had the stuff at home for it already. The Animal Care Specialist Employee girl REFUSED to sell me anything for my Tarantula and would not let me get the Beardie. She was extremely rude!

I am not sure if the groomer I have been using is actually cutting my dogs hair he was really good in the beginning now he's terrible and he made a comment to me that I didn't appreciate

Took my Mane Coon, Shadow to Pets Smart on 6655 West Grand Ave. I am so upset of the way he looks. If the groomer could not do the job, she should have not put herself to do it.. I mention that my cat is nervous.

I took my Yorkie for grooming. Had been there twice before with no problem. This time the staff present were rude. I was so dissatisfied with the grooming and cut... It was horrible. Had to take him to another groomer who fixed it ...I asked for a short teddy bear face. I'm attaching a photo two days after the cut

I had a full holiday grooming deal for my mini-Berne doodle. When we walked in, the groomer had the wrong breed of dog, she wasn't friendly and didn't seem so happy to be at work on Sunday morning. I've had a bag experience with this grooming dept from a year ago, but I wanted to give them a chance at redemption but was disappointed yet again.

When I took my puppy in a year ago, she came back with no trimming and with an ear infection that I had to spend hundreds of dollars to resolve with her vet. This time, the gal was rude, pointed out how horrible my dog is even though I told her in advance that my dog was sensitive receiving services. I also mentioned that she might snip from time to time when she's brushed BEFORE the service, but I guess she didn't listen. The groomer told my husband that they'll have to charge extra for my dog's so-called aggression.

All in all, a HORRIBLE experience and they charged over 120 bucks for this lack of service.

Never going back, they traumatized my dog. She's fine with a mobile groomer that comes to the house so who's got the issue here... Hmmm

8/19/2022 your employees wreak of pot. They were talking about drugs they did. I will never bring my animals there again. Who wants employees under the influence taking care of their animals

I am writing to you about the treatment of my Chiuaua My husband bought him in because he was not eating. And he was feeling weak. For the last 3 days. He was giving Clavamox 62.5mg/ml drops. The Vet said that it was not anything that he could do for him. My husband was charged almost $600. And the following day the Vet said they did all they could do for my Chiuaua. Then they said take him to Vet ER if we have any more problems, which was terrible. We have been with Banfield for the last 6 years this is very bad service. We also have the wellness plan which will be canceled. Also after saying that they could do no more for Chewy, they called the next day to confirm a virtual appointment. What the hell could they do virtually that they couldn’t do when we were in the doctors office?. Anyway, we nursed Chewy back without your help. And now we’re wondering if there is a way to get refunded because of way they gave up on my dog. I would not recommend the timonium petsmart banfield hospital to anyone.

I booked an appointment with one of the male groomers. They refused services for my second dog because she didn't want their leash on her. I have never heard of this foolishness before. All the other places I take my girls to never have this problem, leash or not. If this is how petsmart is I will never be customer again. Just waist of my time!

I was just at the Galveston Petsmart and I got two 50 count tubs of wax worms and what was supposed to be a 4 count of horn worms. In one 50 count of wax worms there were ONLY 13 worms! And in the other 20 were dead! I'm extremely unsatisfied! To top it all off in the horn worms (4count) there were two. One being littler than a wax worm!

Pet Smart refused to make an appointment during their busy time for our dog because per their notes, he is excitable. A lot of care for the money and little care for the animal. I will never go to Pet Smart again for anything. Greedy, greedy, greedy!

September 2017 a crime took place. Employees and managers of the store lost their jobs and we want your help. We seek resolutions for those poor employees. Please help those involved. Thank you.

Went and shopped for dogfood today 4pm Amarillo. The worst service ever. Cashier was unfriendly and not helpful at all. She called a manager over and he wasn't any better. So disappointed with the lack of customer service. Pitiful

No one was eager to help me. No thank yous or may I help you.

Manager Madison and employee Bernadette refused to sell me a African side neck turtle today at the store 0209 in San Antonio TX. It was a surprise gift for my father, and I couldn't surprise him today because of the rude and unprofessional employees at the store 0209.

I bought a toy for my chihuahua January 20 and January 21 it already had a hole in it. These toys are not cheap and I don't have a pet smart that is less than an hour away.

why are the prices of certain items cheaper if I order on line to pick up at the store, then if I go into your store to shop there and purchase my items in store. this is not fair, at least other sites offer one price, you up my charge if I go into your store to shop.

my very polite, well behaved German Shepherd in for a simple nail trim; the 'groomer' had him strung up by the neck so far his pads were barely touching the table. His eyes buldged, he couldn't breath, his tongue hung out, & lips were turning blue. They REFUSED to let him down! I took him down myself - filed a complaint & never heard back.

I went there regarding pet plants. The service representative didn't kn9w nothing as she suppose to be working in that area and the other workers had an very nasty attitude. They was all at the registers just laughing and playing. I will never step foot in that unprofessional place again.

Worst service ever! y'all are pieces of [censored] for not excepting pit bulls. you never know one until you have one! myself, along with lots of others will never shop there ever again! and I will complain everyday if I have to to get that changed! you should be ashamed!

Becca was rude, following us around for no reason, harassed my friends that was talking my [censored] tzu to the car after being groomed. She actually took a pic of my license plate... Why? I have no clue. i called to complain after seeing my dog was bleeding around the nail area and she answered cont no calling me a [censored]! I'm was in disbelief

Please read the pics Thier is where my complaint it thank you

Moorestown, NJ employees and managers were bullied out of their jobs recently thanks to a store manager put in place. It all started in September 2017 until recent. They want their jobs back now that the store manager that did the bullying is gone.

I will be filing a law suit with my attorney. You need to call me asap

Employees bullied out of jobs and nothing is being done as of yet. Why? Angel James we await answers. Corporate we await answers.

For those effected (unemployed) by a bully store manager in Moorestown NJ there's a new movie coming out regarding your story. Please see photo enclosed for details.

We now have a face of one of the perps that caused all of those Moorestown, NJ petsmart workers to be unemployed. We now have a photo of Angel James the district store manager that transferred L'erin Gaines from one store to the other that caused mayhem in Moorestown.

Horrific place to work if you hate being bullied. If you enjoy being bullied then work there.

Dont bully us.

Called operation to get pricing and was told $47.00 for grooming my Miniature Poodle. another $5.00 to have nails ground instead of clipped. Made an appointment for the following Sunday, as they had an opening. They did not explain to me that there was an additional charge for Sunday. When I arrived they put the order together and it was $72.00. Will never go there again, as they are not up front with their pricing. I wonder about the Charge for grinding nails as they looked to have been clipped. Grooming was adequate, but nothing sensational for the excessive charges.

I would not recommend using Petsmart Grooming for any of your dogs. I have been going there for several years. I had been have my senior dogs groomed utilizing the express grooming as they grew older. One of my two dogs is gone now...and I was still grooming the other. Her health had changed over a year ago...but nothing new recently. This past March after getting Kimmi groomed I was told they would not groom her anymore due to health issues. I watched during the last half hour of the hour grooming and was happy with how well I thought Kimmi was doing with the groomer. When she was done that is when I was informed that they were going to start following policies due to a new manager and I could not bring Kimmi there anymore. I asked about using a waiver due to her age and I was told no they could not do that. Funny since they don't hesitate to have you sign for other waivers. The grooming manager was very arrogant when I spoke with her. She told me Kimmi did not qualify for grooming because of a weakness in her legs. Once again I say that is funny...she looked fine when I was watching her. What a bummer to leave me in a position now to find someone new. Kimmi was used to Raul grooming her...and now at her age she will need to get used to someone new. I tried contacting the home office. I spoke with someone and was told I would get a call back with 24 to 48 hrs. I have never rec'd a call back. Very bad customer service to say the least!

We've been customers for five years, but lately the management has become mis-management. I called to make a reservation and they couldn't find our file. said they lost all our paperwork. then they called back to say they hadn't really lost it, but needed me to fill it out all over again. I asked if there was some way to sign a simple renewal agreement as they had all of this information in their system already. sample question included whether my dog had any missing limbs and how they got along with other dogs and people (this asked despite all the paw-gress reports they gave us) if they can't handle simple paperwork and basic customer service, (they acted like they didn't even care about the missing files or extra hassle and paperwork) then no way am I trusting them to handle my dogs. I had heard other horror stories from people but guess we had to experience it first hand before we believed it. the manager didn't care either and her answer was that if I am unhappy I should go elsewhere. which is exactly what we did. you'll be wise to go elsewhere too. avoid these losers at all cost if you value your pet (and your sanity/patience).

I was a past customer of Pet Smart and when I went there they offered an insurance type policy for pets so when they get treated it should help with the cost of treatment. But there is one flaw, if the pet is not an ill one that needs medical treatment all the time then the insurance is not for you. Now, I did get this insurance and did not read the fine print. Now I do not have the dogs but when I calld them to stop the insurance I was told I could not. I had to pay the whole thing even though the dogs are not being treated any more. I recently started to get numerous calls in the house I reside in and the homeowner is a person ho can not tolerate harassing phone calls. I want them to stop or I will seek legal actions against I C Systems for the calls. I am listed in a do not all list.

I took my dog to be groomed at the new petsmart in henderson. it took 3 hours! I went to get him and he ran to the door like he needed to get out of there. when I got him home I seen "blood" he hade 3 cuts on him"why" his face wasn't cut at all. also I payed for his nails to be grinded down 3 of his nails were done! I will never shop there. thanks valerie, you lost us.

i brought my german shepard in for a bath and lite grooming of hair. when i came to pick my dog up i told them my dogs ears smelled and only the back of the dog smelled clean. i was told that they were sorry and i can bering back anther time for a free bath which i did. i was made because of the mistake to travel back to the store and spend extra money when the job should have been done correct the first time. i will never go back to let them touch any one of my pets

I was purchasing $114 worth of pet supplies but apparently only had $90.60 in my account. The transaction was DECLINEDbut three days later it is still pending on my card in spite of the fact that I have NO merchandise and inspite of repeated unanswered calls to their recordings in Phoenix, AZ. The people at the store keep blaming it on my bank and the bank keeps telling me "you're kidding, right? "

I have been taking my dogs to Petsmart in Leesburg, FL for quite some time for baths and nail cutting and grinding. A few weeks ago I picked my two dogs up after their bath and they smelled awful. My male started digging and scratching his ears so I started giving him ear washes and antibiotics. It didn't help so he went to the vet. Bad ear infection. It started immediately after his bath. They both smelled like they were washed in mop water. Last bath for them at Petsmart.

The south oklahoma city petsmart is terrible! I bought a chameleon in their store june 1st and since then I have had so many complications with their products! first the cage we bought for $70 was used & missing a piece, also the cage stand was used & also missing a piece. the flourecent blub went out within 10 days and now, last night, the basking bulb went out. on top of the fact that they never have crickets! (& everything is over priced!) im serious, I have went in four or more times now & I always have to go somewhere else.. they dont even have them in the box to go thing. and let me mention the next location to find the crickets is like 30 minutes away can I sue them?

We have had nothing but praise for our groomer at Petsmart in Lewisville, Texas. I don't want to give you her name because it is so hard to get into to see her now! We request her every time. She is booked way in advance, but we are patient because our little schnauzers are worth it. I have taken them to other Petsmarts and have not been as satisfied, so it really depends on which location you take them to and who the groomer is. Now, Banfield is another story! They nearly killed 2 of my dogs and I will never, never take my pets to Banfield inside Petsmart.
