Yelp.com Review - by Benson Y.

3.0 of 5 stars. I primarily visit this Petco to pick up Greenies for my cat, an item that is not easy to come by in my parts of New Jersey so I've never done a huge, in depth exploration of the place. I have walked...

Yelp.com Review - by James N.

4.0 of 5 stars. I have been a patron to this Petco location for years and years. It looks like a typical petco store but with another floor where they have their livestock of fish, herps, aviary, and small animals...

Yelp.com Review - by Amanda H.

3.0 of 5 stars. This store is okay for what it is, but I probably wouldn't go here if I could find a decent pet store on the UES. The prices don't seem any better to smaller neighborhood stores I've been to in...

Yelp.com Review - by Shae C.

2.0 of 5 stars. The Petco has a very limited selection. I can never find what I need when I visit the store. They don't sell many dog toys (no puzzle toys at all) or higher-end dog food (Natural Balance is great but...

3.0 of 5 stars. This Petco store has a bit of a funky layout, and their selection is fairly limited when compared to one of their normal box-store locations. However, this IS Manhattan, they have great prices and...

Yelp.com Review - by Serena C.

1.0 of 5 stars. I was on a calling binge, desperately trying to find food for my axolotl. Figured that since Petco is huge and a national chain, perhaps they'd carry a wider breadth of products. Not so much.Called...

5.0 of 5 stars. I just got back from taking my dog to the low-cost vaccination clinic at Petco, run by Luv My Pet. The clinic is there on Saturdays from 10-12 and 2-4, and no appointment is needed. This is a great...

2.0 of 5 stars. This Petco definitely has the best selection of all other petcos in terms of fish supplies but the staff is just wack. The rasta who works downstairs always mumbles under his breath at me and is so...

3.0 of 5 stars. It is truly a stretch to give this three stars ...The last time my small dog and I visited there was a roof leak that was not being tended to, imagine plaster, shelving and a hodge-podge of items...

4.0 of 5 stars. I'm rating and commenting on one aspect of Petco only - their BETTA fish selection! I've been raising bettas for years and typically end up buying from a pet shop (hit or miss) or my local aquarium...

Do not ever get your dog groomed at Petco

My very simple instructions were "just a trim. No clippers." What did they do? They shaved my beautiful dog's torso (front and back) right before winter. In addition, they left all the hair on all four legs....

3.0 of 5 stars. I have mixed feelings about this Petco location. On the plus side, they host adoptions for kittens and cats on weekends. They also have little signs around the small animals that they do sell,...

Yelp.com Review - by Kate B.

2.0 of 5 stars. As a supply store, this place is fine. As caretakers of living creatures, they need a lot of work. It used to be better than this, but I went in a couple of days ago to look at small animals for...

2.0 of 5 stars. Let me just say, I love my dog, as nutty as he is - he is a chocolate lab after all. If I'm in his spot on the couch, I'll move over so he can hop up and enjoy his right to feel cozy and comfortable....

4.0 of 5 stars. I'll give them 4 stars simply because they carry such a wide array of items and the store is usually in stellar condition. They also got the extra star because of the Petco card which can help...

Yelp.com Review - by jeremy g.

One-stop shopping

They have everything you could ever want, and it's big enough for you to turn around without knocking things over. But it's expensive.
