Are you
ready to be a part of something big? Join the movement to enrich people’s lives
through the power of pets.
PetSmart is looking
for passionate students to intern in one of our retail stores for the summer of
2014. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to lead a store for a Fortune 400
retailer – now’s your chance to find out!
At PetSmart, we’re
all about Total Lifetime Care for pets, and our retail stores help our customers
take care of their family. Our stores are energetic and fast-paced; you will
never have a dull day! One moment you may be providing a solution for a pet
parent and the next you may be coaching an associate on how to keep the store
clean and stocked. Our store associates are passionate about pets and
people…they’re the “secret sauce” that keeps our stores operating.
Our Field
Internship program is the perfect place to learn about a career in retail
management and the uniqueness of a PetSmart store. You’ll spend ten weeks
rotating through the different store departments and learning from the experts.
Along the way, you’ll also learn about the culture that makes PetSmart a great
