Petco is a health and wellness company focused on improving the lives of pets and pet parents. The Altoona store offers a broad range of brand-name nutrition and supplies for many types of pets. The highly qualified professionals provide full-service grooming, veterinarian services, Vetco Vaccination Clinics, adoption services, and training classes. The Vital Care rewards program is noted as great, especially for multi-cat households. Many reviews praise the friendly and helpful employees, with specific compliments about patient and meticulous grooming services. The veterinary clinic staff is described as pleasant, caring, and handling animals with great care so they are not fearful. However, some customers report problems. These include receiving the wrong item at checkout, expired food delivered from online orders, and a cluttered store environment where big carts block aisles. These issues have led some to state they will buy pet food elsewhere.
Great experience here, I brought my daughter in to buy a hamster, and Bethany spent quite alot of time with us answering our questions and making sure we knew everything we needed to know. Thank you Petco, and thank you Bethany!
