Testimonials
“I’ve been going to this location every two weeks for the last year ever since my dog has required prescription food. There are always long lines and usually only one person on the register. I have a prescription for the food from my vet but PetSmart requires that you get a prescription from them. So I have gotten a prescription from them but did not have it with me tonight. I did have a valid prescription from my vet with me but they still refuse to sell me food.”

“in a word: awful!! They did not do what I asked for my cat and instead they gave him a horrible cut I DO NOT recommend it to anyone!”
