At PetSmart, our associates are as diverse as the pets in our stores! We celebrate that our associates all come from different backgrounds with different experiences. We are passionate about creating an environment that is inclusive and have created Associate Resource Groups for you to get involved in ways that matter to you.
Unconditional love. It’s that simple. We believe in unconditional love for our pets, for our associates, and for everyone. Our Pride at Work resource group fosters an environment where our LGBTQ associates and our allies feel supported and celebrated.

The Mentorship Circle was a step out of my comfort zone. I really enjoyed the opportunity to discuss challenges and wins in a comfortable, but different, environment. I was able to grow my ability to demonstrate courage in ‘public’ speaking, a skill that will continue to serve me in my career development.
