Objective
For this visit, you will be taking photos for all aisles where pet food, treats and supplements are present. You need to follow the instructions carefully so your visit can be approved.
Many of the photos you submit will be stitched together. This means the photos must have a certain amount of overlap. The correct amount of overlap is about 1-3 products. Here's a link to a full explanation. In order to have the best outcome, please watch this short video, and follow our best practices outlined here.
This visit will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. However, PetSmart visits will take closer to 60 minutes to complete. Please make sure your battery is charged.

Locating & Capturing Products

PetSmart Visit
For PetSmart visits, you will be asked to go back to the the dog treats section in the store and identify if treats are found in the first aisle of the dog food (wet/dry) section or not. You will be asked to do the same for the cat treats section.
Tractor Supply Visit
For Tractor Supply visits, you will be asked to go back to the the dog treats section in the store and identify if treats are found in the first aisle of the dog food (wet/dry) section or not. You will be asked to do the same for the cat treats section. Below is what it would look like if the treats are found in the first aisle of the food section.
You will then be asked to go back to the cat food section in the store and identify if cat food is found in first aisle of the entire pet food and treats (dog and cat) section or not. Below is what it will look like if the cat food is found in the first aisle of the entire pet food section.
Additionally, for visits completed at Tractor Supply, will need to locate the Temptations Power Wing displays in the store and take a picture of each power wing display that you find. These are usually found beside an endcap display. This can be a generic or a branded display that has Temptations products on it, or mixed with other products/brands, similar to the example below:
