Who We Are
let's get to know each other
When it comes to pets, we’re obsessed. There’s nothing we wouldn’t do for our pets, because there’s nothing they wouldn’t do for us. Our Associates are devoted to ensuring that pets’ lives are happy and healthy. So naturally, we’re devoted to making sure that PetSmart is a happy and healthy place to work, too.
Say hi to our CEO, J.K. Symancyk!(and Stella and Harper!)
One of the most inspiring things about PetSmart is that everything we do aligns with our mission. We love pets and are committed to providing the products, services, connections and care that pet parents and pets need in every stage of life. This passion for pets is an authentic part of who we are and a driving force in our business. - J.K. Symancyk, President and CEO

We're doggone proud of all of the good work that PetSmart does for our Associates to make #LifeAtPetSmart better for them and for our communities.
You belong here
Our vision of belonging aims to create an environment in which every Associate feels that they truly belong. We place a high value on all the unique backgrounds, experiences and perspectives of our Associates, customers and communities in which we live and work. This vision is grounded in 3 three key aspects.
Talent
We aim to select, develop and retain the best talent from all backgrounds in order to drive innovation. With this goal in mind, last year PetSmart invested $450,000 in continuous learning and professional development, focused on unconscious bias and diversity & inclusion.
Culture
We value an inclusive and caring workplace in which Associates are engaged, feel safe and can be their authentic selves. We have 6 Associate Resource Groups (ARGs) that were created to embrace differences and individuality.
Community
Last year, PetSmart dedicated 22,000 hours of paid volunteer time to Phoenix office Associates, encouraging us to engage and give back to our communities. We also focus on inspiring our business partners to embrace and share our vision.
What does belonging at PetSmart look like?
PetSmart Charities is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has granted more money than any other animal welfare group in North America directly toward helping pets in need. PetSmart and PetSmart Charities are humbled and proud of this work—which includes saving the lives of homeless pets, raising awareness of companion animal welfare and adoption and spay/neuter initiatives.
