Came at 8:40 PM. Window says that closing hours is at 9 PM. There were 20 minutes left! Dorrs were locked, but lights were left on. No cashiers inside at all. I knocked on the door twice, no response. Very upsetting that this happened. Also, why is this place called Petco Dog Training, and that it closed at 6PM? It doesn’t even have the info of the actual store itself! Very unprofessional. Will not be going here again if this happens one more time.
