ABOUT PETCO

Petco is a category-defining health and wellness company focused on improving the lives of pets, pet parents and our own Petco partners. Since our founding in 1965, we’ve been trailblazing new standards in pet care, delivering comprehensive wellness solutions through our products and services, and creating communities that deepen the pet-pet parent bond. 

We employ more than 29,000 partners nationwide and operate more than 1,500 Petco locations across the U.S., Mexico and Puerto Rico — including a growing network of more than 200 in-store veterinary hospitals — and offer a complete online resource for pet health and wellness at petco.com and on the Petco app. 

In tandem with Petco Love, an independent nonprofit organization, we have helped find homes for nearly 7 million animals through in-store adoption events.

Petco partners working at either our San Diego headquarters or our San Antonio Support Center are encouraged to bring pets to work. We believe having pets in the workplace is not only beneficial to pets but also to partners, as it reduces stress, increases productivity, promotes creativity and enhances socialization among coworkers.
