PetSmart

My dogs have mixed feelings on PetSmart (mostly because there’s also a vet here so its never really clear to them if we’re here for shots or toys… imagine if Disney World had this same technique), but I feel pretty sound in saying that this Westside PetSmart is a solid choice for your animal care needs.
Price wise, they have the best prices I’ve seen on cat food anywhere (yes, I also have a cat) and I mean ANYWHERE. We typically buy Friskies and can pay around $ 10 or more for a 10 pound (actually it could be less than that) bag, but I can get a 16 pound bag for $ 10 at PetSmart… that’s a steal! Pet furniture (i.e. cat towers and dog beds) tend to be on the higher end so I usually vouch for Amazon, although once I was convinced to spend close to $ 100 on a dog bed after my disbelief that this did dog bed was somehow softer than my own bed. It all comes down to what you’re actually buying. Pet food and toys, yes. Pet furniture and treats, only in desperation.
Everyone here is pretty nice and helpful. I never have to even ask for help when it comes to hauling large items like the 50 pound bag of dog food our dogs go through like candy. Good people who are always eager to give my pups treats.
This PetSmart does offer some additional amenities like the vet and groomers. I hate to say this, but I steer clear of both. A while back we had one of our smaller dogs hair trimmed and she came back with multiple knicks on the inside of her leg. I never had an issue with the service at the vet, but their prices are astronomical compared to anything I’ve found locally.
Decent pricing on some basics, good staff, lots of options when it comes to dog clothes, leashes, collars, and toys. Good place to start if you need some essentials for your pet.

Sign up for pet perks! Totally worth it! I have two places I go for pet supplies. Our local feed store, and petsmart! I like Petsmart because they have deals all the time and they have so many items that you wish you had for your pets :) like cat drinking fountains?! Also dog proof litter boxes! (got those, still contemplating the water fountain)
So many food choices as well. And during our aquarium phase (we came from Hawaii, there had to be a transition that included fish and water) we kept our fish, crustaceans and turtle fed and happy with all the aquatic supplies here. Down to just one big tank now but still love to go and look at the fish, kind of like a free trip to the aquarium or a wistful walk down fish lane :)
Oh yes, clothes for the pets! And dog boots?! We actually bought some cause our little husky’s feet wore out on the trail. But they are not trail boots for dogs, just a fashion thing. But they have them :) among other things that will make your dogs and cats laugh with you (and at you). So go, sign up for petperks because of the discounts. Definitely a dog and cat (rodent, bird, reptile) place. Bring your vaccinated well behaved pet with you and have fun!

While the staff is kind and knows a lot about animals, they told me over the phone they’d be able to help me finish grooming my bichon, even if she tended to be a little grumpy. I took her, and after 15 minutes, they told me they weren’t able to help because she was «nippy.» even though they had told me it’d be no problem when they talked to me on the phone. I wasn’t happy that I wasted a trip with my dog, who hates the car, on a hot summer day only to have been given the wrong information. Other than that, the store is all right and the animal cages are always clean.

With four pets, we are frequent visitors to Petsmart and have always found everyone there to be polite and helpful UNTIL we had to deal with one of the managers named HECTOR! When attempting to redeem a coupon they had emailed us, he was rude, irritable and condescending! He pretty much embarrassed us in front of the other customers. We will continue to shop at Petsmart because we purchase their high quality pet food, but hope that we can go when Hector is not there!

I cant believe no one wrote a review yet! The staff is insanely knowledgeable and helpful. They helped me stay in my budget and even all took a turn playing with my pup! SUCH a clean friendly store and the training is FANTASTIC!
