BEST PET CARE
BEST PET CARE:
PETCO, multiple locations, www.petco.com
PETCO might be seem like a corporate giant, but its philosophy of pets as the first priority shines through in every venture the company undertakes. PETCO believes in adoptions first; they frequently partner up with the local Human Society to give them a chance to match people looking for pets up with the animals they have. The store itself sells small animals (mice, rats, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, etc.), reptiles, birds, and fish, as well as all the supplies you could ever need to keep your pet healthy and happy. The company's nifty website is really helpful because it's organized by type of animal instead of by product.
And PETCO has made a huge effort to go greener, too. In 2010, the company was recognized as an Energy Star Leader from the U.S. EPA for the superior energy management of their stores.
Quote: "The animals always come first here. Every customer that comes into the store is greeted with a smile, and we try to figure out their needs as soon as we can." - Heather Hilmer, Assistant Manager, Highland location
Photo Suggestion: A lot of photos of animals and supplies, one photo of the outside of a store on the website.
