PetSmart

PetSmart looking to open non-Banfield clinics inside stores

In an effort to provide pet care to more pet parents, PetSmart has opened its doors to independent veterinary operators (IVOs), according to company representatives.

“PetSmart's current veterinarian presence with Banfield is vast but does not reach all of the locations where the company seeks to provide care to its customers,” a statement from PetSmart reads.

The company is looking for independent veterinarians or veterinary groups that currently consist of fewer than 50 locations and want to grow through operating full-service clinics inside PetSmart retail locations.

“An IVO should have a strong sense of community, customer engagement and dynamic collaboration skills, and focus on driving detailed veterinarian services,” the company states. More information is available by emailing ivo@petsmart.com. The first IVO within PetSmart was opened in Las Vegas last year.
