Job description:

As a Retail Sales Associate at PetSmart, you will be immersed in a community committed to the wellbeing of pets and their families. Your role transcends traditional sales; you will be a vital resource for pet parents, guiding them to find optimal solutions for their pets at every stage of their lives. With a shared passion for animals and comprehensive training, you will establish yourself as a trusted partner in their journey.

In our vibrant stores, every team member plays a crucial role in ensuring seamless operations. We offer a variety of shifts that accommodate early mornings, days, and evenings. As a Sales Associate, you will receive cross-training in several key areas:

  • Customer Service: You will be instrumental in fostering genuine connections with pet parents, greeting them (and their pets) warmly upon arrival, facilitating an efficient checkout process as a cashier, and ensuring they leave with everything they need.

  • Pet Care: You will be responsible for the health and safety of all living pets within our stores, including fish, reptiles, birds, and small animals. Acting as their caretaker until they find a permanent home, you will ensure they are well-nourished, clean, and healthy while also providing pet parents with tailored advice and solutions.

  • Merchandising & Inventory: You will support our pet parents in locating exactly what they need. Your contributions will be essential in executing merchandising, stocking, and pricing strategies to enhance the shopping experience.

At PetSmart, we are dedicated to supporting your career growth. You will have the opportunity to:

  • Explore diverse business roles across our store, salon, and Pets Hotel departments.
  • Cultivate your leadership skills through positions such as Department or Assistant Manager.
  • Contribute to the excitement of launching new store openings.
  • Transfer to any of our 1,600 locations nationwide.

While we have outlined key job responsibilities, the most rewarding experiences at PetSmart go beyond job duties. They include:

  • The joy of assisting a child in selecting their very first fish.
  • The satisfaction of helping a pet parent find the perfect food for a pet with an upset stomach.
  • The pride in grooming a pet and witnessing their owners’ delight when they leave.
  • The happiness of reuniting a pet with their family after a stay in our Pets Hotel.
  • Celebrating special moments in pets’ lives, whether it’s a birthday, graduation, or adoption.

At PetSmart, you will discover that this is more than a job; it is a community united by a shared love for pets. We invite you to apply now and embark on a career that truly loves you back.
