About PetSmart’s Ethics & Integrity Program

PetSmart’s core value of Caring is the foundation of our Ethics & Integrity Program. We Care for our customers, associates and communities and believe that our Ethics & Integrity Program is key to strengthening our unique culture. Having a consistent roadmap to guide our behaviors and decisions will help us remain successful and true to our mission. We have established a foundation of trust with our customers, associates, and communities, and it’s up to us to do the right thing and protect this reputation. PetSmart is committed to providing education, training and awareness to our associates regarding our Ethics & Integrity Program. Our Ethics & Integrity department is responsible for the oversight of the Company's Code of Ethics & Integrity (E&I) and reviewing E&I allegations to ensure they are handled appropriately. The E&I department works collaboratively with other departments such as Human Resources, Internal Communications, and Training to ensure we provide awareness and training to emphasize compliance throughout our company. We have designated E&I Champions in each department to assist in ensuring a strong E&I culture.

CareSmart is administered by an independent third-party service. Associate information will be treated confidentially and people who call CareSmart can remain anonymous if they prefer.
