About Petco :
We’re proud to be "where the pets go" to find everything they need to live their best lives for more than 60 years — from their favorite meals and toys, to trusted supplies and expert support from people who get it, because we live it. We believe in the universal truths of pet parenthood — the boundless boops, missing slippers, late night zoomies and everything in between. And we’re here for it. Every tail wag, every vet visit, every step of the way. We are 29,000+ strong and together we nurture the pet-human bond in more than 1,500 Petco stores across the U.S., Mexico and Puerto Rico, 250+ Vetco Total Care hospitals, hundreds of preventive care clinics and eight distribution centers. In 1999, we founded Petco Love. Together, we support thousands of local animal welfare groups nationwide and have helped find homes for approximately 7 million animals through in-store adoption events.
Petco Love is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting lifesaving animal welfare work in communities across the country. Since 1999, Petco Love has harnessed the power of donations made at Petco stores across the country to invest $430 million in animal welfare organizations. With thousands of animal welfare partners, Petco Love inspires and empowers communities to make a difference by investing in pet adoption and lifesaving initiatives. We’ve helped nearly 7.1 million pets find loving families and reunited nearly 171,000 lost pets with their families through Petco Love Lost.
