Pros
Taught me a good work ethic in a very supportive environment. This was my first job and I had been in team settings from participating in sports growing up but this was slightly different. It was a good transition. Co-workers were very friendly, upbeat, and we always helped each other. Management was also great! I loved working here. Only reason I quit was because I wanted to be a veterinarian and had an opportunity to work at a pet hospital. I miss my PetSmart family! Also, if you're looking for a career, this is a really good place. They were offering me a chance to go to the academy to learn to groom and I hadn't even been there a year. They have excellent growth opportunities and great benefits for full-time employees. They also genuinely care about all the pets and pet parents!
Cons
The only cons I have were some of the dogs were disobedient and it was hard to groom/bathe them without them injuring themselves or me. If you take a job in the grooming department, you must be able to lift dogs into the tub and have A LOT of patience!!! Being an animal lover probably wouldn't hurt either :)
