Testimonials

Took dog into groomer for toe nail trim, they needed his immunization records which I supplied, service was done. Went back a couple weeks later for the same service and they had no record on file of his immunizations. The girls working in the grooming department either are incapable of doing there job, don’t care or are just stupid. Worst petco I’ve ever been to.
