Two Petco-specific things worth knowing: most stores have an in-store Vetco vaccination clinic (a separate-hours service walk-in or appointment), and the Grooming Salon keeps shorter hours than the store (typically 8 AM to 7 PM with last appointment around 5 PM). The smaller-format pet specialty alternative Pet Supplies Plus operates about 700 mostly-franchised neighborhood-format stores positioned between large national chains and local independent pet stores, and its signature self-serve dog wash is a feature most Petco stores do not offer.
