Big puppy
Piper H.

Instead of coming here, I'd highly recommend going to the Humane Pet Services LLC. in Council Bluffs. Instead of waiting an hour to see a dog at this place, HPS welcomes you right in and doesn't make you fill out papers before being able to see the dogs like this place does. I came to get a small/medium size dog and was asking to see one from online. They had posted a puppy picture of her where she looked like the perfect size, but after filling out papers and waiting, realized she was way bigger in person and would be too big compared to our dog. The staff was alright but I can see how people get really discouraged from adopting when they can't see everyone. The adoption price is also extremely high for a place that is way too full and also a kill shelter. I found my forever dog at Humane Pet Services and recommended that place 100 times over the Humane Society.

See all

I adopted two of the best cats I've ever known from them and it went very smoothly. The adoption counselor was very helpful.

It was a very difficult decision for me but it was time for my sweet old girl to go.

Council Bluffs

The store is clean and organized. The staff are friendly. This location does not have a vet on…read moresite. So, if your pet needs a prescription food (like mine...), you cannot buy it here. Until this location has a vet, I cannot recommend this location. Pets are welcome, as usual. A nice store minus the vet.

If one could post NEGATIVE stars; I would. My family & I recently relocated to Council Bluffs from…read morethe Twin Cities. Today we had our first experience at this PetSmart and it was nothing short of horrendous. As a fish owner for 15+ years of both fresh water & tropical fish I am disgusted in this company for their lack of care when hiring and training employees. I experienced a snotty girl (Abby) who couldn't have been over 17 years old, refuse to sell me goldfish because she didn't like that I was "buying a couple of THEIR cheap plastic fish bowls" demanding sternly "that's not how you care for fish"! Mind you she knew nothing about me, our "fish" situation and didn't bother to ask ANY questions. It didn't matter that I explained to her I had 25+ gallon tanks at home waiting and I knew very well how to care for them. Not to mention an equally as ill trained manager that can't make eye contact or most shameful; corporate headquarters that promised a phone call three times over in the last 6 months but doesn't follow through. This company is SHAMEFUL. No clue how this company is in business. Can't imagine they will be much longer at this rate. DO BETTER PETSMART!!!
