Team PetSmart

At PetSmart, our culture sets us apart, and it starts with our people. More than 50,000 associates across our company bring passion, care and expertise to their work every day, helping pet parents experience more joy with their pets.

That’s why we invest in our associates – supporting their health and safety, enhancing their day-to-day work experience, defining pathways for growth and reinforcing a culture of pride and connection. Our goal is to create an environment where associates learn and grow together, thrive as effective teams and challenge each other to be the best they can be.  In doing so, we live our value of Team PetSmart – working collaboratively, supporting one another and succeeding together. We provide an equal opportunity for all associates and job applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, veteran status or other legally protected characteristics.

One of the ways associates experience our culture and connect across the business is through our seven Associate Resource Groups (ARGs). Our ARGs are comprised of dedicated associates who share a common purpose, interest or background. Throughout the year, ARGs create opportunities for their members and all of PetSmart to live our value of Team PetSmart, drive business priorities forward and pursue personal and professional growth.

We believe in the power of authenticity, where everyone can feel safe and empowered to bring their whole selves to work.
