Our new fur baby

I adopted a new family member from here but what really sets this Store apart from other pet stores is that they feel like they really care. Each staff member knew the exact Cat I was adopting, were very excited for him, and they gave all the recommendations and advice to help make the transition as smooth as possible Shout out to Madeline who always says hi to the fur babies walking in, Serenity , Isabella, Miguel. Very special shout out to Bill and Kneading Kittens for having such a powerful mission and Petsmart for working together. Cupid is very happy in his new home!

Most patchy shave job of all time

I do not recommend this grooming salon. I didn't know it was possible to shave a dog so unevenly. I brought my mini poodle in for a groom and asked that he be evenly shaved everywhere. He came home with a long, uneven mustache and the most patchy shave job I've ever seen. I've spent the past day scissor trimming every section so I'm not embarrassed when I take him out for a walk. I gave one extra star since the employee that created this abomination was at least friendly.

Smaller Petsmart store in Scottadale- easy access and tons of parking. I had every staff member say hello, greet me, ask if I needed help and always had a smile on their faces. I actually saw them helping other customers as well, which is usually rare (I go to Petsmart way toooo often). Ashton was very helpful and was the first cashier to ever request if I wanted to use my Treats Rewards points! Thank you Ashton! I always realize when I get home that I had points- so thank you for offering, I greatly appreciate it. Tip: Price match all items on Chewy.com or Petco.com before you buy them! I save tons by comparing. Literally one item was $7.99 in Petsmart and on Chewy.com only $2.79- don't throw your money away, save it for another dog toy instead :)

We understand low inventory, and short staff- but my goodness!!! The lady, excuse me as she lacked a name tag, was insulting and beyond rude. We started on the wrong foot, apparently, and checked out accordingly.... We used a $50.00 bill, apparently it looked like we would pass a fake bill as the woman used her counterfeit pen not once, but TWICE. Adding to a quote unfortunate experience, our bags were tossed at us with not a word. I believe, "Have a nice evening/day" would have taken less than 1.2 seconds. Thanks for nothing, Petsmart.

PetSmart is a great, not good, but a great pet store! We have shopped here and at several other locations in four different states with always the same high quality results. We have also used their pet adoption services, as well as their pet grooming which is also great! Nice employees who really care and are very helpful. A big WOW!

Dog friendly - as if you didn't know that! The grooming center always tells me that my dog was great for them, which is weird because I cannot even get her to look at a bath tub much less get in one. They always seem to up sell my husband on something but maybe he just likes to spoil our dog more than I do - hard to believe, I know. Is it just me or is this store dimly lit? The lighting makes it feel a little dingy. I'm pretty certain that every time we come to this location that Wyatt is goofing off.

Neglected fish :(

I know chain pet stores have no standards for their fish on display but the fish section of this particular pet smart is atrocious. Nothing looked healthy. What really caught my attention was the betta fish. The majority of the selection of bettas were dead or seriously ill. I think I counted about 2 healthy-looking bettas. Then there was this extra neglected section that actually sickened me enough to write this review. Picture is attached, showing GREEN WATER in several cups. How long will it take for some employee to notice this? Long enough for that to happen is the unfortunate answer. I know most people think oh well it's just a couple fish who cares. This is neglect and abuse and it's wrong, chain pet stores need to stop mass-selling bettas for this exact reason!

Just wanna say for those of you looking to buy some fish, their fish are all diseased and are currently in horribly kept conditions. Every last one of them. Take my advice and look elsewhere. ANYWHERE ELSE. I bought 7 otocinclus and 4 plecos. All 11 fish died, and they brought a nasty parasite into my tanks even after I quarantined them. Killed all of my fish. It was heartbreaking, as I had them for years without any issue. That was a couple months back. Here I am back again just taking a look at what they have and cannot believe what I'm looking at. Over 20 dead neon tetras in this tank, I counted. All infested with ICH badly, and clearly the dead fish have been in there for days, as their little bodies have started to decompose. Just absolutely disgusting.

See all

I take my little Yorkie to be groomed at this location and Angel is just awesome! Ripley, my puppy, loves her, as do we!

We searched for months to find a dog trainer who was not only effective but also responsive and…read moretrustworthy. It wasn't easy. Once we found All-American K-9 and Erika, we knew we had hit the jackpot. We handed our sweet (but crazy) Labrador over to her for a 3-week Board & Train, with a little trepidation. After 3 weeks, we were amazed to get back the most well-behaved, calm dog. Not only did Erika train Finn, but she also taught us how to keep up the training. The responsiveness is unparalleled. I always get well-thought-out and specific answers to my questions within a few hours. I also love that this isn't just a one-and-done training. We have lifetime access in case we have questions, which is a relief, since we have someone who knows Finn and can help in the future. The Board & Train might not be affordable for everyone, but it was absolutely worth every penny. I wish we had found Erika months ago.

The transformation after finishing the program is incredible. I now have the confidence to take Dovi into any environment and know that I can keep his attention. He walks better, is more attentive, and his overall behavior has improved. Best of all, I feel our human-dog connection is better. We are both happier and more confident after Bob's training. Bob is straightforward, matter of fact, and easy to learn from. Can't recommend it enough!

They are a wealth of knowledge and I successfully implemented many of their suggestions. For example, a "softer" approach to the prong collar I was using, and better timing with the remote collar. I now realize I talk too much to my dog and should use more indirect, non-verbal "pressure" to communicate commands to my dog. Jose and Monique of JD Powerhouse offer a 6-week DIY Saturday afternoon basic obedience class. I enrolled to "refresh" my ability to "communicate with" or effectively handle my dog. I have participated in various obedience classes with my dog over the years, so my dog was somewhat trained. She's a 4-year-old, American Pit Bull Terrier, with no major behavior issues. Although, she did not like when other dogs barked at her (or me) and would react for short bursts until they passed us on our daily walks. Since my dog is a 70-pound, square-headed, somewhat muscular dog, she appeared the aggressor. Jose and Monique increased my confidence and ability to maintain quiet control of my dog during our neighborhood walks. As always, I needed the training, not my dog

I was referred to JD's by a colleague. I am so thankful. I was prepared to hear that Piper and I…read moreneeded all of this work and it would require their board and train but after meeting José and Monique, they quickly instilled confidence in me that Piper and I just needed to improve our communication and some basic skills. What I really appreciate in addition to their expertise, clear direction and upfront approach is that they didn't sell me on what I didn't need. José made it clear very quickly that it would not be the best use of money to board and train my dog, Piper. Instead, he offered me a customized package that would maximize the training and my money. That's badass. I have gone to other evaluations where trainers were trying to scare me into pick the most expensive package by over inflating the concerns I had. I left those feeling overwhelmed both by the price and by the evaluation itself. That is NOT the experience I had with José and Monique and it made the decision to choose them so easy. I highly recommend JD's Powerhouse K9 Bootcamp because you can trust that José and Monique truly care about helping you to be the best owner you can so your dog can trust you and be their best. I am quickly gaining confidence and I can see Piper is too. Also, as a side note, they are amazing humans. They do great work work shelter dogs and I know I've found my training home. Thank you so much to José, Monique and the rest of JD's Powerhouse K9 Bootcamp. You are the BEST!!!

When bringing it to the attention of the two female staff members they indicated they were their maintenance team and allowed it to continue. Additionally, my dog uncharacteristically kept trying to jump on her and both staff allowed this to continue after I corrected him and said he isn't allowed to do that. Picking him up he started jumping again and it became clear select dogs are being trained bad behaviors as this was not his first time here, but the first time I was late. We will be taking our business elsewhere and find a trainer to undo this conditioned unethical training behind the oweners back as he did not jump at first drop off.

Then this year in March while I was out of the country my husband informed me that my sheep doodle had blood on his white fur. After investigating it he said there was a puncture would. I called the Fur Babies at the Scottsdale location where he was for daycare. The front desk reached out to the manager and informed me that my dog " came in hot, was met by the pack of other dogs and corrected as they should according to her and then said my dog went and coward in a corner." I asked several times if at any point did a human intervene, why hadn't anyone notice the wound, could I see the video footage and to have the owner reach out to me. After several phone calls over a month's time I spoke to another manager and she said the Scottsdale manager was going through something and that's why she never reached out to me. If my dog is injured at your facility it is your job to reach out to me or someone on my contact list. I leave very specific instructions with emergency contacts, vets info and my pet taxi person who would have taken him to the vet in case of emergency. None of that was done! The puncture wound was big enough to see but then they asked if my shihtzus could have done it. The answer is, no! This hole was a big dogs canine or claw! I've had multiple dogs get groomed here and do their daycare program. I'm so disappointed that no one personally reached out to me or apologized. Zero accountability. Needless to say, they will never go back there and I have found a new doggy daycare.
