Review from Jeanette B.

I've bought a few betta fish here, and I feel bad for them, because they keep them in very small plastic cups. There is no room for them to swim around--only enough for them to survive. Although it's definitely not an ideal environment, since I've seen many of them dead on the plastic cups. The reason they keep them in the cups is because they will fight each other until death, but I still wish there was a better solution. The reason I like betta fish is because they are one of the only fish that can survive without an air filter, although they do need a heater.
Most of the people I've talked to at this store have been really knowledgeable, when it comes to fish. I got into a huge conversation with one girl about goldfish. She was definitely a fish nerd--I learned a lot from her. Also, when I was getting set up with my first beta fish, I had some questions about a heater, and I got some good advice for that as well.
Sometimes I like to just come here for fun and look at the animals. I especially like to look at the hamsters and the lizards. Some of the hamsters are so hilarious, and a lot of time many of them are simultaneously running on their wheels--it's so cute and funny. The lizards are interesting too, and it's often like a puzzle trying to spot them in their habitat.
The prices here aren't too bad, but some items are a little pricey. Surprisingly, I've found cheaper prices at PJ's pets. -

Nice store for all your pet's needs and wants. You can even bring your creature (pet) into the store while you are shopping.
The grooming department is fantastic here for your dogs. We have a husky and they do a great job on her, especially in spring to get rid of her winter coat. Be aware that your pet's vet shots have to be up to date and produced before pet smart will groom your dog. -

I used to go to Petsmart on a regular basis because I had a doc and he was in bad need to obedience training. It was a Jack Russell Terrier so I'm sure you can understand. Through weekly sessions his temperament cooled and he really did become more obedient. Mind you he was still a 200lb dog in a 20lb dog body. The instructors definitely knew their stuff and their love for dogs really showed.
I've also bought dog food, toys and accessories here. They have a good selection but their prices are a bit high. They also have a grooming studio for your pet.
From my experience buying a dog at a pet store, I would not recommend it. However, Petsmart doesn't sell animals, rather they have an adoption program available for those who are looking for a pet. I haven't heard anything - good or bad - about this program so take your chances. It may be better to go through the SPCA.
From pet carriers, kennels, pet food, over the counter reliefs, Petsmart has it all. Check them out if you have a pet. -

Their cat food selection is terrible. They don't carry any of the high quality cat food, mostly grocery store cat food. Their cat toys do not look appealing. For such a big store, they are very disappointing when it comes to cat needs.
