PetSmart

RUN FOR THE HILLS! When I first began patronizing PetSmart grooming, they were reasonably priced, convenient and caring. Over the years, the turnover of groomers has become faster and faster… not a good sign. Seems like they get the folks fresh from their certificate and don’t really know what they’re doing. This is true in the 3 I visited… Boulder, Stapleton and the one near Yale. My last visit my dog was chopped, not groomed and I was told that breed is difficult to cut… which is a crock! I truly believe that an earlier visit my dog (who is a very mellow poodle terrier mix).a real love bucket… was dropped because he suddenly started having back problems… hesitated to jump or run. Obviously there is no way to prove it. It is no longer reasonably priced and I don’t care how convenient it is, they won’t see us anymore and if you love your dog, you won’t go either!

I came here for the first time to get my Golden bathed. I told them she had gotten sick in her kennel and smelled really bad. When I picked her up and paid $ 35 for a bath realize she still smelled bad. I didn’t even want to try to ask them to re-​bathe her because obviously did so well the first time. I took my dog to a self-​wash facility and I gave her a bath for $ 12 and she smells as good as new… what does that say about their experience there?

This store is ridiculous. I have tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, it’s close to our house and convenient. But EVERY time I go there or call I get the same lazy, unprofessional attitude. Hey, I don’t care if you’d rather be anywhere else, the fact is, you are working here. Try to at least be helpful. I am not looking for overenthusiastic exuberance… I get it, you work at a big box store – but maybe something above blatant ambivalence. If you call to make a grooming appointment you will get put on hold for the maximum amount of time you can handle, and JUST before you hang up, they will come back to the line. If you go to the store, plan on standing in line FOREVER. I swear they never have more than 1 cashier working the registers. I seriously hate this place.

NEVER TAKE YOUR DOG TO ANY PETSMART TO GET GROOMED!!!
We’ve tried about 3 – 4 different Petsmart locations (including this one) to get our 22 lb dog groomed because they have the cheapest prices.
Cheap prices = TERRIBLE grooming
When we got our dog bathed and brushed out, you could tell he was dried in one of those boxes that just blast air on the dogs, and he was only brushed on the surface of his hair. There were still matts and crimpy hair under the outer fluffy surface. These groomers definitely didn’t put in the time.
When we got our dog shaved, they did an uneven job and even nicked his ear once! Another time, they didn’t even clean his ears!

Pet smart — it is what it is. It is the closest pet store to our house.
We don’t get our food here (i get it shipped from an online store).
We come here for the random stuff, airline carriers, hiking booties, water dishes…
The staff was helpful while we were sitting on the floor with the pups attempting to size the carriers and suggested thurnder shirts and the herbal drops we already had.
I like that i know what is at which store and where i can find it.
The pet tag printer is pretty cool too!

My dog loves this place! The staff are very nice and helpful when we have questions and the groomers there are also fantastic =)

There’s a certain small standard that I have for huge chain retail stores. The store must be stocked, clean, good prices, and a knowledgeable or at the very least pleasant staff.
This Petsmart location is lacking all of those things.
We walked in and there was a doggy accident sitting on the floor in between isles. We assumed this must have just happened and would be cleaned up immediately (especially since pet stores must be used to this)…
We stepped over it and headed for the cat food. Not only did the prices go up, the adult cat food is never on sale and I can’t feed my cats kitten food forever. Regardless, they were out of the food I needed. We worked our way to the filters for our spoiled cat’s water fountain and they were out of those too. When all needed things are not in stock we head to the toys.
On the way to the toy isle we saw the doggy accident was still not cleaned up and someone had even rolled a cart through it and kept going. I found a staff member and pointed it out to her just as a friendly heads up, and she merely nodded and walked away. Again, we assumed it would be cleaned up.
Three strikes you’re out Petsmart, you were even out of the toys my cats like. On our sad empty handed way out we noticed the droppings had still not been cleaned up. We will not ever be returning here.

Run of the mill PetSmart if you ask me. Convenient for everything pet related. Nothing overly special, nice people, good variety of merchandise, and your able to walk your pets in. I love being able to walk in with my dog and do some treat shopping.

They sell Dog food

They usually have what I need — the staff is helpful but not overbearing and with PetPerks I can usually get a good price. Plus I get a kick out of all the critters walking around. Overall a good shopping experience.

Giant chain without the benefits of a giant chain. At least the one in Lakewood is gigantic and so has good selection. This store seems big but I wasn’t impressed with the selection at all, and everything is severely overpriced. Dog beds in particular are of very low quality, $ 50 for an egg crate with a pillow case over it, basically.

Do not go here for grooming!!!
We’ve taken our pooch here several times for grooming services and you never know what you’re going to get, once in a while he looks «ok» but usually it’s whacky & we end up trimming & praying he’ll «grow out» soon. Then we took a road trip to KS where our poor guy picked up fleas so we checked and yes they do flea baths so I brought him.
My husband went to pick him up — like 5 hours later — how does it take them 5 hours to bathe a dog?! Got him home and I started looking him over and he still had fleas! I called and the groomers were like «what» «really»?! (during his grooming we’d had our house & vehicle fumigated — waste of money! They put me on the phone with the manager who said he couldn’t refund me yet because «the new guy» had bathed him & he thought it was simply a quality control issue so we could bring him back. We took him back for flea bath #2 – the manager swore there would not be a flea on him after. After picking him up from bath #2 — more fleas! The best part is as we were there at the store checking him for fleas the groomer who bathed him said «yeah I probably didn’t do a real thorough job». Needless to say tomorrow AM I’ll be having a discussion with the manager for my refund!

Okay, guys. DO NOT take your pet to the grooming services here.
I took my little 1 yr old dog here one afternoon and they spent 3 hours on him before the called and said I had to come pick him up because he was squirmy and the employee was «tired».
I had to bring him in the next day and after 45 minutes, I got another call saying that they simply could NOT finish grooming my puppy and I had to come pick him up. They gave my dog the grossest haircut, didn’t even bathe him or anything and I STILL had to PAY for it!
My dog has been groomed other places with no complaint so it really doesn’t make any sense to me.
Please don’t go here.

My dog, Rosie, asked me to post this review on her behalf:
«Dear PetSmart,
About a year ago, you suddenly raised the prices on 40-​lb bags of Hill’s Science Diet from $ 36 to $ 45. Shortly thereafter, my parents decided that I was a wee bit overweight and needed to go on a diet that includes the rationing of my food. I AM SOOO FREAKING HUNGRY — I HATE YOU! Please lower the prices so my parents can afford to make me fat again. Also, if you could run better sales on squeaker toys, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Rosie»

PetSmart Stores Stapleton Location Store # 1199
Since we have adopted Chloe our very first cat, we went to this store to get some other stuffs needed. All in all its an OK store to me. Hubs prefers another pet store since that is what he is used to when he had his pets eversince growing up.

For at least a mile or two, even when we arrive from a different route, my dog seems to know we are heading towards his favorite place.
He begins to pace back and forth on the back seat of the car, stick his head out even further, and cry! He sounds like he is saying…“please can we go? please, please?“
heehee
This is my dog Blackberry’s favorite Petsmart location.
He loves finding the odd treat that has fallen out of a bag on the floor underneath of all of the displays. He climbs as far under as physically possible. He also jumps up and positions his head right by the treat bowl at the register waiting patiently, and showing off his eyes.
One time he even ran back in, when he was getting ready to jump into the car. He ran up to the doors, waited for them to open automatically, and went back to the salesperson at the register who had just given him a treat!
Plentiful parking, usually nice staff…
today the only weird thing was that they had puppies on sale that were half pitt bull… um…aren’t they illegal in Denver?

Okay, so I love good bargains and Petsmart offers a great deal on pet grooming. I send my dog to a high end groomer every so often but between the high end groomer trips I send my little gem to Petsmart for a touch-​up. I have one of those high maintenance poodles, Petsmart does a great job with her. Their «Top Dog» treatment does wonders for Maya and wonders on my pocket book too.
Maya always comes home smelling and looking great. Petsmart recognizes her the second we walk in and always compliments her behavior. I feel confident that they treat her well while she is there. They’ve always done well trimming her hair too, I have no complaints.
We’ll keep going back.
