If you need to run to PetSmart on Christmas for any reason, whether to pick up more kibble, dog poop bags, or anything else your pet might need, you will need to make other arrangements, as the pet supplies retailer will be closed on Christmas Day in 2025. This way, PetSmart’s employees can take some well-deserved time off and enjoy the holiday with family and friends.
It is always good to prepare as much as possible before the holiday to avoid stress when you realize you’re out of wet food or another essential your pet needs.
Is PetSmart Open on Christmas Eve?
While you can’t walk into PetSmart on Christmas Day, you can still stop by the store on Christmas Eve in 2025. That said, you should expect your local PetSmart to have reduced hours. You should also confirm with your store before heading out to ensure it is open.
What are PetSmart’s Christmas Eve Hours?
Store hours will vary by individual PetSmart location. You can find your favorite PetSmart’s hours online on PetSmart’s website. Navigate to your state and city, then click your desired store. From there, you can also find contact information if you prefer to reach out to your local PetSmart directly.
