I applied online. I interviewed at PetSmart (Lexington, SC) in Dec 2009
Interview
I filled out an online application. There are many of the typical "what would you do if" and "agree/disagree" questions that you'll find on other online applications. I was called less than a month later for an interview.
Two managers spoke to me. One was friendly enough and seemed to have a genuine interest in animals - something that was missing from the staff at another pet store where I worked in the past. The other manager mumbled a lot and had a somewhat "gloomy" attitude. I couldn't understand half of his questions due to his mumbling. There were a couple of times when I just had to repeat his questions, to make sure I had understood correctly. He acted as if I were stupid and didn't know anything about my own application. "You put it [in the application], not me" was one comment.

Question 1
There were many "Tell me about a time when you..." questions.
very simple, one on one interview. asks basic questions! felt like talking to a friend instead of having a tense interview. got to know my manager in the process which was nice.
Pretty standard interview that you can expect from an hourly paying job. You may interview with as many as 2 managers depending on the job, and the interviews length is pretty standard.

Question 1
Do you have any pets or have had pets in the past?

I applied online and had an interview with the assistant store leader. I was supposed to have another interview with the store leader but they called me with the job offer before that. The interview happened in the dog training room.
