TJ Maxx is a popular discount store chain that sells a variety of items, including clothing, home goods, and pet supplies. But are pets allowed in TJ Maxx? The answer is yes and no.

Are Pets Allowed in TJ Maxx?

Service Animals

Service animals are always allowed in TJ Maxx, as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Service animals are defined as dogs or miniature horses that are trained to perform specific tasks for people with disabilities.

If you have a service animal, you must keep it on a leash or in a harness at all times while in the store. You may also be asked to provide documentation that your animal is a service animal.

Pets

Pets, other than service animals, are not allowed in TJ Maxx. This includes dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other animals. If you bring a pet into the store, you may be asked to leave.

Exceptions

There are a few exceptions to the no-pets policy. Some TJ Maxx stores may allow small, well-behaved pets in carriers. However, this is at the discretion of the store manager. If you have a small pet that you would like to bring into the store, it is best to call ahead and ask if it is allowed.

Other Stores That Allow Pets

If you are looking for a store that allows pets, there are a few other options. Some pet-friendly stores include:

  • Home Depot
  • Lowe's
  • PetSmart
  • Petco
  • Bass Pro Shops

When visiting any store with your pet, it is important to be respectful of other customers and employees. Keep your pet on a leash or in a carrier at all times, and clean up after your pet if they make a mess.
