in shock I love this place I am shocked at all the bad reviews I do agree the store sticks and is a little hot but the animals are very healthy looking and as far as the employees they are mostly teenage girls but they are super helpful and the groomer is top of the line they do exchage if the animal is sick atleast for fish they do.

YUCK This is a dirty nasty place.Its hot and it smells bad! I feel bad for the animals trapped here. Their cages are dirty and often food/water bowls empty. The staff seems to always be made up of teenage girls with bad attitudes. The owner is nice but, seems more concerned with making money than helping customers. I wouldnt recommend this as a first choice for anyone buying a live animal.

This Place needs to be Closed This pet store sales sick animals, it dirty and nasty and the staff is not knowledgeable in handling or caring for animals, My opinion is the owner may be nice but he is there for the money and not for the love of pet ownership. Upon walking in the store the ODOR is overwhelming and stuffy. There seems to be a lack of proper ventilation in the whole store. The staff person took a net from one tank water from another and scooped a fish out of yet another tank... thats cross contamination right th... read more

Great Service These other people must have the wrong pet store in mind. I love ths place. Its always clean, doesn't smell bad and the service is always great-not to mention great prices. They are cheaper than petsmart and I've never seen moody teenage girls working there. The owner is always pleasant. I can't think of a better shop.

Pet World is Disgusting!! Gloucester store is also DISGUSTING!!!! I visited the Gloucester location a couple of days ago for a tank hood . It was reasonably priced but the store was filthy!!! My daughter 18 and son 9 had to wait outside while I made the purchase because of the stinch in the store!! I asked the sales associate what the smell was coming from and he said the small animals!!! I thought it was from the cat but he said it was the hampsters, gerbils etc...When I got back in the car after being in the store 10 mins.... read more

I wouldn't recommend this place I called my veterinarian on Friday about my cat that had worms. They couldn't get me in until Tuesday. They told me to go to a pet store and get cat worm medicine. I went to pet world. They me that no one sells a worm medicine for cats. And my veterinarian because they are on base would not be able to treat him. They gave me a card to a vet they had on the counter by their register. I went to pet smart and they had what I was looking for. I just wonder how many other people they have told that... read more
