Petco Events and Freebies for March 2026Saturday, March 7

The fun kicks off Saturday, March 7, with an in-store event where you can decorate a gardening pot filled with cat grass and shop for exclusive deals and discounts. What is cat grass? It’s an edible variety typically made from seeds of oats, wheat, rye, or barley that pets can safely chew on, rather than nipping at your table flowers or other herbs, which might not be best for their digestion.

Saturday, March 14

Come back to your local Petco on Saturday, March 14, from 2 to 4 p.m. to take advantage of 40 percent off on new collars, leashes and harnesses when you trade in your old and used items.

Saturday, April 4

Easter celebrations continue at Petco stores through Saturday, April 4, when locations will be turned into pet-themed Easter egg hunts. Swing by at 2 p.m. to search for treats and other delights hidden throughout the store.

Every Saturday

No matter what weekend you stop by, it’s puppy play time! Every Saturday from 1 to 1:30 p.m., you have the chance to play with the new puppies! Aged eight weeks to six months, these adorable little dogs have extra energy and are ready to cuddle, hop, and play. You might just be tempted to take one home!

Every Day

Whether on your way home from work or after school, on your way to work or your lunch break, all day Saturday and Sunday, too, the door to the Petco Zoo Animals is always open for visitation. Hang out with the reptiles, fish, birds and furry friends of all shapes and sizes. You might just meet the newest member of your family!

Check your local Petco website and store hours for up-to-date information.
