Updating again! Out of litter again and again! Told This time that the truck should come in on Wednesday, but depending upon who is working the product may not get out till after Thursday night. So absolutely tired of this won't be back I will continue to go across town to Petsmart instead read more

I have been shopping at this store for many years. They're always helpful, but I am especially thankful for the outstanding service that I received from Amber when I visited the store recently. She went above and beyond the call of duty and I hope that her managers recognize what an asset she is to Petco. Thank you Amber. You are very appreciated. read more

A haircut I can truly say that I could have done much better myself. Bring your dog here at your own peril. They are not cheaper than real grooming shops... $20 is not cheaper when you are talking $100 per dog for full treatment. Run to a real groomer... don't look back... We have two seven month old Labradoodles. One has straight hair while the other has more poodle hair... Both should look like little cute fluffy puffballs for around two weeks following a grooming... Well Petco butchered this haircut. A 3/4 inch uneven shave over entire dog. The legs are uneven. Usually labradoodles have their legs cut like little straight poles... very cute look. Uneven is not even a good way to describe it. A day later, you wouldn't know they were at groomers. What a joke for $210. I feel like I was literally robbed. It is like we went in and said give us the cheapest haircut ever... and then get hit with a $210 bill! The dogs don't even prance around like they have a new haircut? Then on top of this, both dogs were there for five hours... From the quality of this job, they were clearly locked in foreign crates for 4 hours and 45 minutes each. while jammed through all the different grooming stages over 15 minutes... I will likely never even shop at Petco again... this is how angry I am. They should be ashamed... maybe they were training someone? but you would think training would imply supervision? What a joke for a company. Never again will I make this mistake. Last month we went to "Tails of the City" since petco was backed up. We don't know why we didn't just go back, since we were so happy with their work. They know how to trim a labradoodle. read more

The manager was rude. We waited 30 min for a hamster and she decided to wait the last minute you have to be 18 to buy a hamster. Mind you I went there a couple of weeks ago and bought the same hamster and they didn't question me. She also said you have to be 18 to buy any living in their. Which is a lie because I bought plenty of fish from this spot. Petco really needs to hire more people and stop being rude. read more

OMG!!! This is such a long over due review!!! Shout out to Marcella!!! It's 2018, and Gucci started coming to her I think in 2015. Fridays, I WFH (work from home) and I always schedule his appointment for 7 am so he doesn't have to wait. I get some work done at Peets, and at 9am, she's calling me to come grab him. He always gets the bath, cut, face rounded, fluffy tail and fluffy brows and nail trim. I get my flea treatments from littlecitydogs.com OMG!Like a 12 supply of 30 day flea pills for $30 and it works BOMB!!! Minus 1 star because his teeth are not in great shape, like they never brushed them, and have tarter and one of his teeth fell out because of it. I wouldn't want them to do a deep clean, but if it was written on the "pawgress report" I would have made a teeth cleaning appt with a vet. I now moved out of Fairfield, but I will be making the 1-hour journey or her to hook up Gucci! PS, this place does have a high turnaround because I'm sure these groomers get paid horridly ( Just like teachers). I would give them bonuses gas cards and chiro and massage appointments because its really strenuous labor and Petco is worth 4.6 billion dollars. Newsflash Petco, you have Unleashed by Petco that just launched, you should have 20 rooms and 10 LMT for your staff to get massages to boost morale. read more

customer service 10/10. The lady at the check out was so helpful, she didn't know the answer to my question and went out of her way to ask a coworker. Then let me know where else to find the product I actually needed for my dog. SO THANKFUL! I wish I remembered her name!! She was so awesome! read more

I recently took my dog to get groomed at the Vacaville location. My dog broke out all over in hives. She had a severe allergic reaction! I have been taking my dog to the Fairfield location for a year and have never had my dog break out. Also when I picked my dog up she was poorly washed and soaked. I attempted to speak with the grooming manager and the store manager but got no where I was cut off and just explained they weren't responsible. read more

NO STARS! My dog went to the groomers, she came back and could not open her left eye. We took her to the vet and the doctor said there was recent trauma done to her eye. The groomers tried to minimize her situation by saying it was just hair in her eye. In actuality there was an ulcer. I would recommend never taking your animals there! read more

I went in today to get my dogs nails trimmed, as she was a bit overdo for a nail clipping. All was well, until the lady began working on her nails. My dog had obvious stress and discomfort, and was met with no comforting words or breaks between so she can be less overwhelmed. Once her back nails began being trimmed, my dog started screaming, squirming around, and biting at the leash that was keeping her in place, and I was frozen in horror. My dog is fairly shy and quiet so I knew she was in pain. I'm going to start getting her nails trimmed at a trusted vet because I feel secondhand trauma after my dog's experience here. read more

We brought our new puppy in for training with Tammy today and it was amazing! She was incredibly helpful last time we were in picking out training treats and ear wash, what a great surprise when we showed up for class and she was the instructor! By far the best puppy training class I have experienced. She also recommended we get set up for the reward program that would save us a ton of money on grooming and vet services. When it came time to leave Lola was so kind and patient setting us up with the rewards program. We will be sure to tell everyone to go to Petco in Vacaville! read more

We have been getting our dog groomed here for over a year. I would give Katy a 1,000 stars if I could. She is so caring and sensitive to our senior dog needs. While she was out for awhile, the other groomers stepped in and also did a good job. But, Katy is the best read more

Have been a long time supporter of this store. Recently I purchased 3 varieties of aquatic plants and varying fish (this purchase alone was $79.00) then noticed my tank had an infestation of midge flies from the plants I purchased. When asked if they would give me store credit for the $11.00 I spent on Amazon for mosquito dunks, I was told no. I asked them if they were willing to loose a customer over $11.00 and they basically said yes as it is the store policy to return the plants for a refund. Pet Smart is across the Interstate. read more

Do not bring your dogs here for grooming! I would never EVER recommend this place to anyone. My poor dog was stuck at the groomers for 7 HOURS this past weekend. Although the groomer herself was nice the staff at the grooming counter was absolutely awful. We had been coming here for the past 3 years but service has gone down terribly our last 2 visits. It's not worth stressing your animal over by bringing them here. read more

I don't shop here that often and after tonight I can see why. I walked around the store for at least 10 minutes trying to find someone help me find a product but there were no employees on the floor working. So I finally found the products I needed on my own. Now I go to check out and it's about a line of 7 people. Both cashiers definitely seem like they do not want to be there. I go to check out and the gentleman hands me back the wrong amount. No biggie but as I tell him he thinks I'm wrong at first but the register is telling him how much he owes me and I still have the amount of the counter. Now we must wait for a manager while the people behind me are now frustrated that it went down to one cashier. Please teach your cashiers how to count back change. Money does still exist. read more

Took my dog here for training. Classes were approximately 40/45 minutes long. I was told an hour. Tammy was good but unfortunately I could of save quite a bit by watching you tube. I got the basics like sit, stay, focus, and learning to walk with the leash better. But not 200+ for that. Live and learn I guess. read more

Good service, the employee named David gave me great advise on how to start up a fish tank for the first time. It wss a mother's day gift. In short, my mother is very happy with her gift and her new Betta fish likes its new home. read more

Called three days ago to schedule an appointment at 5pm for a nail trim for my dog. They were very nice over the phone but failed to mention I need proof of a rabies shot upon arrival for my appointment. I explain when i made the appointment no one had mention that to me and also my dog has her rabies tag on her collar with the current year it was given to her. I was still turned away. Waste of a trip and waste of gas. Never again. read more

This place is terrible the people in the groomer salon there is a lady called Anna that has a very bad attitude towards clients. I was there and instead of speaking like I was there she was almost screaming to let everyone know what she was explaining to me about my dog when I went to pick it up. I kept my comments to myself because I don't like drama but for sure the place deserves less than a star for hiring such as rude people with poor communication skills. read more

I am so upset with petco grooming. I made an online appointment, then I got a call a day before my appointment to confirm, I confirmed. I sent my sister, she took time off of work and since we live out of town she made it less than 10 minutes late. The lady said she couldn't help my dog anymore. I called her to see what the problem was and she exaggerated how late my sister was. I have the proof in the calls and appointment time. Also, she said appointment would take 4 hours and they close at 7pm. So I don't get why they let me schedule an appointment at 5:15pm online then even called me to confirm and didn't mention anything about not having enough time. This is very frustrating because my sister had to take time off work, drive out of town, and was still not able to be helped. read more

We have always had good help here, plenty of the items we are looking for and happy service from employees. They have recently been doing a makeover of the store and it looks like it will be awesome when complete! In a day and age where we can order online from plenty of places, a local place we can go pick up items for our pets is important. Not having an employee tell us "Oh, you can order it online!" instead of "it is on aisle 6, let me take you there." is important to us. Sometimes Fido just needs a new toy today, not next week! read more

Sigh, Petco shouldn't be where the pets go. After being ignored, I tried buying fish here but the guy wouldn't sell them to me. They have some policy where they're not allowed to sell them if they don't see fit. My situation was that I hadn't already made room before buying the fish (1 fish per gallon of water). Even though I guaranteed that they would be moved right when I got home, the employee insisted that I would take over an hour to get them situated and my fish WOULD DIE. This makes no sense to me how they try and sound concerned when, seconds before helping me, he was scooping dead fishes out of cramped tanks. So I went to Walmart instead, bought fish, went home, and got them acclimating in 10 minutes. My fish are thriving now, in case you were wondering. Another time I came here, I saw hamster biting another hamster to death. I notified an employee and they scooped it out like no big deal. Whutttt issss thisss placeeee. read more

After having my dogs eye cut while having a Bath and brush last week I was less than happy when I woke up on Tuesday morning to see that my dogs eye was red, swollen and had been discharged coming out of it. I immediately called Petco to tell them what happened and spoke to the manager Bill. I was expecting to have some problems with them because I figured they would just tell me they were not liable. I was pleasantly surprised when Bill offered to cover all the medical bills for my dog to go and be checked out by their veterinarian. He then had me talk to the grooming department manager Analee who also apologized for the experience. She offered to give me a full refund and cover the next time I come in to have my dog groomed. Although it does not make up for the scar that will be permanent on my dogs face it does help that they were so apologetic and helpful after the fact. read more

Petco - THRUSDAY night after the grooming and waking up Tuesday morning to this infection. - Pet Stores Near Me - Vacaville, California

Great shop and staff are very friendly and helpful. We love going into Petco, they have everything you would need for your pup and more. Can't ay I have anything bad about this place. read more

I love this location! Because of the staff. Everyone is always so friendly. One in particular is a gentle that I wish we got his name. He's always helpful. But everyone there is pretty amazing. I've never shopped so much at a Petco. But I just love knowing that we will always have a good experience here. We always shop here for our babies. read more

I really like Petco. They carry the dog food I like and it is always at a good price. The PALS reward card gets me easy $5 to $10 off so its a great deal. Service has been very good lately and the cashiers are friendly and smiling. Lines are short and its pretty easy to get in and out quickly. read more

Go here often for fish and aquarium supplies as we have two tanks. Unfortunately today we were helped by Sarah who acted as if we were inconveniencing her by asking to purchase a few fish. Maybe she is having a bad day but don't take it out on your customers. read more

Was very happy with the service we received and Scarlett and Noodle look amazing!! Thank You!

Horrible customer service. My kids and I went there to buy a fish to put with our existing fish, since our last 9 year old fish died of swim bladder disease. First we waited for someone to help us, the lady working the aquatics area with short blond hair was tending to some goldfish. We were standing there staring at her for about 5mins, she looked up saw us and continued doing what she was doing...didn't ask if we needed help. Finally I asked her for some help after I realized she didn't care. We named off the fish that we wanted and she asked what other fish we had and how big the tank was, and said the fish we wanted wouldn't work...made us feel like idiots who basically shouldn't own a fish..instead of naming some other fish that might work with our existing fish, I asked her and she said the name of a $20 fish. I knew some others would have worked after some research but there was no way she was going to sell us one. I gave up and decided to take my business to Petsmart, who were helpful and had great customer service skills! And guess what, we now have a happy and thriving aquarium with our new additions from Petsmart. read more

I just went in for both my cats for my regular basic cheap friskies cat food but I wanted to start feeding my two cats Nala and spooky the best and most healthiest food but on a budget price and I had no clue where to start or where to look that's when Haley and Ben both came to my rescue to help me out and I must say I was taken a back with how knowledgeable they both were and very eager to assist me. Great service and much help from the both of them. read more

I was not impressed with this Petco today. We have taken our dog there several times before (He is a chihuahua mix). The first time we took him he was allergic to the shampoo and fragrance. They paid for the vet visit to find out what went wrong. This time they did not tell us not to have the flea and tick shampoo unless he had lots of fleas so he broke out again. When I called to speak with the lady, she immediately said "We are not liable" I stated, I am not calling to say your "liable" I am calling to find out what did you use? Did you use fragrance? Did you use another shampoo? The last few times this didn't happen. Long story short, we huffed and puffed, had to talk with the grooming manager, then had to speak with the store manager. Not going back. We will groom our own dog. read more

We brought our Doberman in for a nail clipping and ear cleaning. He was super nervous. Lisa was our technician and she was great. She was very patient and was able to calm him down. We will definitely go back! read more

Patrick is the epitome of excellence when it comes to customer service!! We interrupted him while he was involved in a task with the reptiles and engaged him in a 35+ minute conversation about turtles, scorpions, and fish. He was very well-informed and helpful. He was genuinely passionate and friendly - he didn't seen annoyed or bothered by our demand on his time. He was funny and engaged our kids, making them laugh. read more

If I could give no stars I would . Went in for one item a cat tag , and went to the machine which told me to go to the registers which I waited in line for . A worker named Megan was gladly walking around another customer grabbing items for them . Than I proceed to walk up and she stated ," idk who told you to come up here but you have to go here here and here " as if I work there ? The hell ? Than I have to wait back in line . Total bad customer service read more

Not the very best on prices, but very friendly people. Haven't had a bad experience here yet. Very helpful when I was looking for the right fish tank filtration system. Best of all, I've never encountered anyone here with the "I'm a cashier at a pet store, so I have better knowledge than your veterinarian" syndrome like I have encountered at PetSmart. If I've been directed to buy a product by my vet, you can direct me to where it is in the store, and that's where it ends. I don't need any "your vet is a fool, I know better" routines, so I'll keep coming to PetCo. read more

This store has been hit or miss in my experience. The best experience was our cat adoption; the worse was this past weekend. My husband & I were there to refill our cat litter. As we walked towards the registers, a rambunctious large German shepherd puppy was barely in control by its owner. The puppy jumped on me and I was scratched. The owner ignored me as she continued through the aisles. I was concerned about my wound as the dog scratch broke the skin. I am always wary around dogs as they can be unpredictable but I am usually able to avoid them. I called the store manager a few days later to report the incident and ask what can be done for public safety while shopping. She kept telling me that dogs are allowed as long as they are leashed, they can't ban dogs from the store, etc. I didn't ask for dogs to be banned. My concern is not being attacked while shopping. Again, she referred back to the store policy of allowing dogs, etc. Clearly customer safety is secondary to store policy. She suggested that I order my supplies in the future. It would be inconvenient & impractical to order loads of cat litter, so this suggestion was not helpful. I am a 63 y.o. disabled vet who is currently waiting for a surgery date for my injured back. I am not able to dodge an unruly animal as quickly as I have in the past. The store manager has made it clear to me that dogs supercede concern for other customers. Because of this policy & lack of concern, I will take my business elsewhere. read more

Went to Petco for fish for my son. We have never had fish before and the lady was very informative. She told us to try with the cheap goldfish first before we got the more expensive ones. I guess you have to get the fish tank just right with bacteria and stuff. And good thing we did because one died that night. Store isn't very nice. Old and smelly. Fish area isn't very nice either. We usually go to Petsmart, but this was the closest. Will go back for fish though. read more

Every time I come to this Petco I regret it. They have the worst customer service. I shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes and make several trips up front asking for help that rarely comes just to get crickets. Every single time. read more

The first time I came here I stood in the grooming section for a significant amount of time before being assisted. Once I was assisted the service was great. The second time I came here I stood in the grooming section for quite some time again without being assisted. I finally decided to go to the check out register and see what was going on and I was told "It's closed, they left early for the day". Would have been nice if the door had been locked or if a sign was put on the door. Also several individuals that worked there walked right past the grooming section even looked at me and didn't say a word. read more
