Took my sweet cockapoo in for grooming and Jada did amazing with him. He was so well cut and even tinkled in approval of his new friend Jada on the way out. They also recommend things to help his grooming experiences be better. Look forward to seeing her again and keeping Greg looking his best.

It’s a smaller Petco but they had everything I needed for my pet bird. Nice workers and clan store.

Was so glad to see that they had the heart shaped joint cookies back in. Right now they are not available on line.
