We’re proud to be "where the pets go" and where the pet people go. For more than 60 years, we have helped pets live their best lives by providing everything they need—from favorite meals and toys to trusted supplies and expert support. We believe in the universal truths of pet parenthood, from the boundless boops and missing slippers to late-night zoomies.
Today, we are 29,000+ strong, nurturing the pet-human bond in over 1,500 stores across the U.S., Mexico, and Puerto Rico, alongside 250+ Vetco Total Care hospitals and eight distribution centers. In 1999, we founded Petco Love, supporting thousands of local animal welfare groups and helping find homes for approximately 7 million animals through in-store adoption events.
Our core values guide everything we do:
As a Pet Stylist, you will be the heart of our grooming salon, providing professional grooming services that ensure every pet looks and feels their best. This role is more than just a job; it is an opportunity to showcase your creativity, expertise, and genuine passion for animals in a dynamic environment.
Your day will involve performing expert-level grooming services, including bathing, drying, brushing, haircuts, styling, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. You will prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every animal in your care, monitoring them for signs of discomfort or illness while delivering a high level of customer satisfaction to pet parents. You will interact professionally with pet owners, offering custom recommendations on grooming maintenance and at-home care to promote the overall health of their pets.
Petco provides all the necessary supplies and state-of-the-art equipment, including bathing systems, kennels, tables, and dryers, allowing you to focus entirely on the craft. Whether you are a recent graduate of our Pet Stylist Apprentice program or an experienced professional, this role offers a clear path for growth, with opportunities to advance to Grooming Salon Leader, Grooming Mentor, or Grooming Instructor.
