About
PetsMart
PetSmart, Inc. (NASDAQ: PETM) is the largest specialty retailer of services and solutions for the lifetime needs of pets. The company operates more than 800 pet stores in the United States and Canada, a growing number of in-store PetsHotels, and is a leading online provider of pet products and information (www.PetSmart.com). PetSmart provides a broad range of competitively priced pet food and supplies; offers complete pet training, grooming and adoption services; and provides a full line of equine products through State Line Tack. Since 1994, PetSmart Charities, an independent 501(c)3 organization, has donated more than $39 million to animal welfare programs and, through its in-store adoption programs, has saved the lives of more than two million pets.
PetSmart stores carry the industry's broadest line of products for every stage of a pet's life. Our unique products differentiate PetSmart from the competition and give customers new reasons to shop our stores. PetSmart offers exclusive products at good values, a proposition supported by our solid relationships with suppliers around the world and our cost-control initiatives.
Nearly all PetSmart stores feature pet styling salons that offer safe, quality pet grooming services, from full-service styling to baths, toenail trimming and teeth cleaning. Pet stylists are trained at PetSmart academies and provide the industry's highest-quality services.
PetSmart offers affordable education for puppies or adult dogs. In addition to ensuring that pets are happy, well-behaved members of the family, the classes help solve obedience problems - the number one reason pets are turned over to shelters.
In addition, we are testing PetSmart PetsHotelSM, an innovative, high-quality pet boarding and day camp concept.
In every store, PetSmart provides space for shelters to make homeless pets available for thoughtful adoption by PetSmart customers. This program has found homes for more than 2 million homeless pets since its' inception in 1994.
PetSmart is the only pet care company that provides high-quality, affordable veterinary hospitals inside many of its stores. Banfield, The Pet Hospital™, one of the country's largest veterinary care providers, operates hospitals that focus on preventive care to extend the life of pets. PetSmart holds a 31 percent equity position in Medical Management International, the operator of Banfield, The Pet Hospital. |
