With 3 fur babies in our home, Chewy saved us so many times with quick service and great prices. Always willing and able to resolve any issue with product or purchases. Twice in the past 10 months we have lost one of our fur babies. Rosie, our lover girl and Link who was one month from 18 years old. Today, I received roses from Chewy in response to my loss. This company knows how much fur babies (and others) mean to us. As long as I have pets of any kind I will continue to use Chewy. Their support staff is great and will always strives to get an answer to any question I have ever asked. Thank you Chewy.

Amazing customer service. I had to return some prescription wet food that my dog's belly no longer agreed with. (No fault of the food or Chewy.) There aren't typically refunds on prescriptions, however, Chewy still agreed to refund and gave the OK to DONATE the food to our vet/local animal shelter. Wow. Stellar one on one customer service.

The website states 1-3 business days for shipping..This is the only reason why I chose Chewy..Ordered on the 28th of Dec, and received an email on 29 Dec stating that the package should be delivered on the 4th of Jan..Called their 1-800#..Zero care or concern, excuse after excuse..Take the ** off your web page and be truthful..Definitely won't be shopping here anymore!

I received an order from Chewy for 24 large cans of dog food. 21 of the cans were severely dented but the box was undamaged. I used to order from Petco and they did this same thing. I switched to Chewy not knowing they were the same company. Their solution was to offer me a coupon on a future purchase. Why would I ever order from you again after you dumped the cans you couldn’t sell in the stores on me twice??

My dogs have specific dog food needs and rely on timely delivery of products. However, as of late, delivery has been poor. I am on automatic delivery every two weeks and the last two orders have been late. Don't rely on timely delivery of your pet food needs. Chewy's response is we are working on it. Working on it doesn't solve the problem that my pets are running out of food and I just can't run out and buy just any dog food. In addition, it is strongly recommended that you not switch dog food like this as it will cause problems with your pet's stomach. I am going to find another source for my pet needs.

Have made two orders with this company. First went through fine. Both were for prescription drugs. Second order wound up with a delay with Fedex (only shipper offered) that resulted in having to make a replacement order. Incorrect email was sent by Chewy that started a round of 6 call in two hours, three of which were "hangups" from the Chewy pharmacy. Not one question was answered correctly.

I contacted Chewy to return two items that I mistakenly purchased. I purchased kitten food instead of cat food. Chewy immediately refunded my money and told me to donate the food to an animal shelter. I had planned to do so but to have a company suggest donating while reimbursing their customers for their own errors is outstanding service. I've already contacted the shelter and will bring the kitten food shortly. This is truly a company that cares.

My husband and I ordered food and medication for our German Shepherd who had chronic renal disease. Several days from her end, we ordered a double harness. Unfortunately, the trajectory of her disease was so fast the double harness arrived the day she was euthanized. My husband contacted Chewy in hopes of returning the double harness as well as the unopened ** medication. Chewy told us not to return either and credited our account. A day later, flowers arrived with a sympathy note. We're so touched by Chewy's promptness and caring.

I'm not normally a caustic person, but in this case I will make an exception. Several months ago, I ordered a prescription per my vet's instructions, thinking it would help my dog's skin issues (as my vet had told me that it would). Ultimately, the prescription was found to have no effect, so I cancelled further shipments. I had received notifications which stated "Hey, we're prepping this for shipment, cancel if you don't want or need it!" followed by an email stating that "this has been shipped." Since the medication was ineffective, I cancelled future shipments on Chewy's own website, thinking that this was the end of the matter.
During the month of December 2022, all of this changed. I only got a notification of shipment, with no "tell us to cancel" email preceding it. I called the company to cancel, and the pharmacy technician, who shall remain nameless (HER NAME IS KELLY!) was one of the rudest, most condescending, disinterested, people that I have ever met. Her attitude is less one that should be expected from a customer service representative at a dog food company and more one that should be expected from a dispatcher at a waste collection agency.
I tell her that I had cancelled previous shipments and would like a refund. She asks, in not so many words, "why?" and responds by dismissing everything I just told her and acting as if I lack the standing necessary to speak to her. She proceeds to tell me that "if [she] were in [MY!] shoes (this is done in the kind of sing-songy, "you're an eight year old child and you need to be spoken to as if you can't tell the difference between up and down" tone that no adult would tolerate), she would be glad that someone bothered to help out!" She then tells me that "*If!* Chewy feels like cancelling the order like I asked, I *might* get a cancellation confirmation within 24 hours."
It's bad enough that I just spent thirty minutes on hold to talk to this person. I shouldn't have to stand for THAT. If there was something going on with her in her personal life that influenced her tone, she should have left that garbage at the door and not point it in the direction of customers. If she was sick of customers, she should have taken the rest of the day OFF. Again, if she was having a bad day and made a mature, effective, adult decision, none of this would ever have happened. I guess doing so is not an option.
This is a $75 medication that my dog doesn't need. It isn't cheap. The least that chewy's pharmacy could do is at least *act* like they want to try to help. Apparently that's too much to ask. Anyways, I hang up the phone, take a breath and call back to speak with a supervisor. THIS person tells me that the order was cancelled and that the money will be back on my card in 24 hours.
Fast forward to a day later, and I get an email that says that the order-which, again, I don't need because it won't, and hasn't, helped my dog-has SHIPPED. So! NO cancellation, no refund, no nothing. Everything I had been told was malarkey. Call the company back again TODAY, and NOW they tell me that the refund would be issued in FIVE days OF THE ORDER I CANT *USE* SHOWING UP AT MY HOUSE! So in other words, within ten to fifteen days (because it's the holidays and everything slows down), chewy might begin the refund process.
Moreover, UPS MIGHT accept a reroute order (but now we don't know if they will or not). If that (hopefully former) pharmacy technician had done her job properly beforehand, none of this would have happened. But nope! We can't do that, apparently. I certainly hope that she got fired from her job. The ONLY thing chewy did properly was to shut down my account like I had asked.

I've been using Chewy for a few years, they make my life easier. Recently, my vet clinic went to only online medication ordering. And their website didn't have some critical medications for our 16+ dog. I went to Chewy's, found them and ordered them. I received an email that it was delivered. Being the day before Thanksgiving, I hadn't opened the email until I realized I didn't have it. I called and spoke to their fabulous customer service and pharmacist. In passing, I said, the reason for my concern was I was having surgery and wanted everything ready.
They were kind, saying they wished me success, something people tell another in the situation. Here's the thing, in the mail a few days later, I received a thinking of you card. Plus they sent a new order of the needed medication - free. The Chewy's staff were all helpful and very kind. With the customer rep, I felt like I was talking to an old friend. The company's culture is rare and a gift to this frazzled dog mum.

Be mindful of fraud flags from this site as they will stop your purchase and you'll be in for a fun ride of customer service reps treating you on the phone as if you are a liar or a thief. Ordered 2 beds for our pooch and we were expecting they would come today. I found an email this morning, saying the account needed verification. Valid. The account was in my name, pay with my husband's card. I called, and they asked me to please ask my husband to call, to verify. He did, they told him everything was good and the order would be dispatched.
But 20 mins ago, I found another email saying the billing address was not verified. I phoned again. They said that nobody had called, and there was no record of my husband's call. Now, I work in the industry, and I understand fraud flags, as a customer, to some degree I welcome them. But to not even try to own up to the company's mistakes and instead treat us like thieves I will not tolerate. Their voice switched immediately from nice, to unwelcome.
I could have done without this horrible experience today. I think it's great you prevent fraudulent activity, but you could try to use the calls from all these unverified customers, to work with your Customer Service Reps in training on how to handle these situations. There are ways to verify that people's stories are valid and real. Not everyone on the internet is out for robbing others and you could pick up real potential customers, like us, instead of deterring us.

I have ordered from Chewy for about 6 months. They continue to use FedEx for delivery services, which is horrible. Our estimated delivery was on Friday (no delivery) spoke with Chewy and FedEx both stated that it would be delivered next day. I called them a few times on Saturday to check delivery status and they said it would be delivered by end of day. Of it wasn’t. The excuses were “bad weather in Austell, GA” **, I was at work in Austell and it wasn’t a raindrop. I’ll be spending my money at Pet Smart as long as Chewy uses FedEx for their delivery!!!

Have had many, many great experiences with this company. If you have an issue with an order, they are more than happy to fix it. Prices are at least equal to, or usually cheaper (especially for big items) than you can find locally and you can stay home to shop! As far as 1-3 day shipping, that is usually the case. However, once it leaves their facility, they can't control it. If it's running late, they let you know. I had one issue with them years ago regarding a prescription. So, if you are wanting to start your pets' meds thru them, put in the order EARLY and keep on top of it. I now get my goat's meds thru them and have no issues.

I was notified of an order for $256 dollars that I did not make. My account was hacked on their website and someone made this order. The products are all coming in different shipments and I have to wait for all, send them back and wait for a refund on products I didn't order. My bank account was hit for charges because PayPal was the primary payment set up. PayPal was no help and now Chewy isn't much better. My money is tied up at Christmas time and they were of little help. I will never order from Chewy again, and would suggest anyone considering doing business with them that their site is not very secure and their customer service is terrible.

On November 15, I received an email saying the order was delayed. The order was for an automatic litter box, water and food dispenser for our cat to use while we are out of town for Thanksgiving. On November 16, I get an email wanting me to review the experience. I called on November 17 to check on the order and was told that it was under a "security block".

My dog's prescription was ignored. I called to check the following day and they said it was out of stock, then said it wasn't, then said they would call and get vet approval right away. They never called the vet. I had to call again later in the day to check and was told vet was never called and that they needed to cancel order to restart it because it was still showing out of stock even though it wasn't. I was ok with this if they agreed to expedite shipping since we already lost 2 days due to their error and my dog is dying in her first time battling fleas and I need the meds asap. They said no. They could not promise expedited shipping and would not accommodate in any other way. They canceled order. I had to find new vendor. I stayed completely on top of this and wouldn't have found out the order was being ignored if I didn't call every day since placing the order, only to have it not fulfilled. They ignored the request and did not offer to expedite shipping to make up for the time they lost while my dog suffers.

I placed an order online. Shortly after, I received an email from Chewy that my order was cancelled. No explanation was given. I called in and spoke with customer service. She did not offer an explanation either. I reordered with her. She got my order wrong which I found out after the order shipped. I am very dissatisfied with what happened and how customer service dealt with this problem. I’m disappointed that my order was changed even though I made clear what I wanted and my cancelled order was there as reference. I don’t see myself ordering from Chewy again. And this was my first ever order experience on Chewy. And finally, their survey algorithms don’t allow me to post this on their site even though they sent the survey request to me.

We received the goody box as a gift for our 8 month old toy Aussiedoodle puppy. In less than 24 hours, she chewed a hole in the tug rope. Upon examination, the material was very thin and the seam not well sewn. When I contacted Chewy customer service, they were apologetic, but would not replace the item because it was part of a box.

I then contacted their pharmacy department explaining my cat needed her medication and asked what the hold-up was and sent a picture of the prescription. Well, that is when they started to tell me that the inability to get approval was MY FAULT because I put in the wrong clinic information.
I mean I know where I took my cat for care but since the prescribing vet works out of other clinics and the prescription had a different address on it I must not have realized I took her to a different clinic. Instead of apologizing for the constant (and I have all of my emails to show this) berating of my intelligence, they continue to tell me I am in the wrong and they will fill the order in 7-10 days instead of what I am asking and getting the NEEDED medication to me ASAP. I would cancel the order and start over with 1800PetMeds but I cannot have any more delays, however I will not be returning. I chose Chewy because of reviews I read, but I have no idea what company those reviews were actually talking about.

Out of the years that I've been ordering from them, I've had only one occasion where I received the wrong product, and they shipped the correct food ASAP without me having to send the other back. That was last year. They have also include free shipping for orders $35 and you get your products within a few days thru FedEx so you're able to track exactly where it is and set up alerts.

The pharmacy consists of distracted employees working at home. They aren’t very bright or capable. After months of trying to get one medication sent regularly in a timely manner, I gave up. Some days I called them 4 times. They just don’t listen. They keep using a “portal” which my vet doesn’t use. They cannot send a fax to the correct number. They lied several times and say it was resent when it wasn’t. They’re lazy and feign interest. Different employee every time. They slur their names so it’s impossible to know who you are counting on.
Chewy failed our family dog two out of four months we used their service. It must be a miserable job there. A temporary gig at best. Probably a few criminals who cannot work anywhere publicly. Don’t believe the phony “caring” voice on the phone. It’s scripted. Don’t let your doggo eat the cheap wheat laden biscuit they’ll send either!

On two occasions now I’ve encountered stocking issues where I was informed *after* a purchase was made that the item I bought wasn’t in stock. Despite appearing to give me a choice to cancel my order or not via the notification email, the reality is that a cancellation and subsequent refund are the *only* approaches to rectifying said issue, even when the item is predicted to be back in stock shortly.
There’s no excuse to tie up additional charges, however temporary, on my account when exchanges (or simply the exact purchase, applied at a later date) or store credit could be used as an alternative option in the way that many retailers offer instead of requiring that the customer accept the delayed refund only to circle back and repurchase later; particularly when it is a result of inconveniences that, though understandable, are in no way the fault of the customer. Customer service is friendly and prompt, but it doesn’t change the fact that this is a poor way of passing the buck and I’m over having to deal with the repeated headache.

This was the worst experience I've ever had with a store. First they denied my prescription even though my vet approved it and we had to start the order entirely over. Then they put down the wrong shipping address (Why. I don't know as my address was listed CORRECTLY when I ordered this product online). Then it took 10 phone calls to get the address corrected... Nobody there seemed to care that they (Chewy) changed it internally to a wrong address after they cancelled it the first time by mistake. Then it didn't go out on time due to all the issues with Chewy. Finally, I needed this product desperately as it was a mare of mine that was having health issues and time was of the essence to treat her.
The day they were supposed deliver the product the service they used did not deliver it to me (but stated it was delivered). I repeatedly had to call Chewy to locate the package. The manager was arrogant and basically couldn't care less of the urgency I needed this medication. He stated I needed to file a police report and email that in and the following week they would ship out the product. He did not want to help me whatsoever even though I stated this medication was for a mare whose health was declining and this delay was seriously affecting her health. I have witnesses who looked for the package earlier at the mailboxes (that is where they stated to have delivered it) and we also thoroughly searched around the house to make sure it wasn't put somewhere else.
At about 6:30 pm I was advised by my neighbor (I had been making calls to make sure it wasn't delivered to someone else I knew in the vicinity) to go to all the subdivisions and check their mailbox stations. On my way out I found the package in the driveway (wasn't there when I came home at 5 pm or when the neighbor checked for me at 3 pm). All I can think is someone got the package by mistake at a different location and decided to drop it off at my address this evening. My entire experience with Chewy was absolutely HORRIBLE. The way they continually screwed up a time sensitive order then treated me as if I was the criminal that stole the package is unbelievable. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY IF YOU NEED MEDICATION THROUGH THE PHARMACY.

After the past couple months of getting spoiled (actually exploded in packaging) products, which were refunded, but they never resolved the issue with the warehouse after numerous requests for investigation, because you would order them and still were damaged before shipping. Prices on site, are not always honored. They reply it's only a certain size, or flavor even though you get an email with the price of the product. When speaking to customer service, if there's an issue, they rather be rid of you than try to resolve. After over 10 years of being an auto delivery customer, they couldn't care less or even ask why, when I asked to be removed. Certainly, things have changed, maybe they have enough customers now that they don't need to care.

I want to give a HUGE shout-out to Chewy.com. I have used them for years for their convenience and prices but NOW.... They are an amazing company. 1. I called to say I just got an order in and it is unopened. That my dog passed. She was clearly understanding on the phone and refunded my money and asked if I would just donate or pass it on in name of our dog. 2. She stated they are open 24/7 and if I ever need to talk, they are here for me. 3. Yesterday when I got home from work, There was a bouquet of flowers waiting for me with their condolences. AMAZING!

How could anyone give Chewy less than a 5 star review? We've been customers for 7+ years and LOVE this company. We've ordered dozens, if not hundreds, of items from them. They have real customer service- like, an actual person picks up when you call and deals with your ask right away, with clear communication. Or same over chat. If there is an issue with an order or you don't like a product, they will often just refund it entirely and ask you to donate the item rather than shipping it back. That's happened 3x to us. How amazing is that? I don't know how they stay in business being so generous to their customers but we are lifelong customers as a result.
They almost always have the products we're looking for at prices as good or often better than the local stores. However, we also shop/ support our local pet stores as we like to support them, so try to balance both. Highly recommend Chewy to any pet owner. (I have zero affiliation with the company, just a happy customer).

After being extremely happy with Chewy.com for years, they have a new security system, which for some reason red flags my orders requiring me to make several "verification" calls by phone. Often delaying my shipments by a week or longer. One order was delayed over 2 weeks. I am understanding of glitches in new start ups however every single order since this has been required, because one phone call never gets the job done. I have never cheated the company and this has been going on for months. They cannot give me a reason for the constant red flag which is unacceptable. I have canceled my Chewy account with great sadness but one morning it took over 30 minutes to get verified only days later still have the order remain canceled. I hope they get their security issues fixed but 2 months is too long being targeted when I know people that are not.

I was a loyal Chewy customer for years for all of our pets, however, no longer. In the past several months, their customer service has gone wildly downhill. They used to have top notch customer support who would give really good advice and helpful input on everything from cat food to dog toys. No longer. Most of the time now, packages are never on time. I routinely receive notices that "your item has been damaged en route" with instructions to call Chewy to place a new order, which is a huge inconvenience. If the package is damaged en route and never arrives and the carrier notifies both me and Chewy, Chewy should take the initiative to send a replacement order (an apology would be nice, too, but you'll never get one). Then, you're on hold until someone who makes it clear they would rather be doing anything except customer service comes on to grudgingly replace your order.
Chewy also recently opened an online pet pharmacy which sounds great and convenient until you try to use it. I had one good experience but, after that, it was a disaster. They lost my paper prescription that they required I send them by snail mail, at my expense, and then claimed my vet refused to approve two prescriptions. When I contacted my vet, they were shocked and said Chewy never reached out to them. They sent me an email confirming that, which I forwarded to Chewy. Chewy said there was nothing they could do. That makes no sense.
At one point, I asked to speak to a manager. A very angry sounding woman who identified herself as Veronica or Victoria came on and said I was required to submit to being on a recorded line. I said no problem and I would record as well. She said she didn't consent to me recording; that only Chewy had the "right" to record (with?) and then hung up on me when I questioned that. Why so afraid? Because you know you're going to give terrible customer service? Everything you can get on Chewy, you can also get online from other providers or, better, from your local pet supply stores. The only thing Chewy had going for it was its convenience and, prior to a few months ago, the formerly good customer support. There's simply no reason to use this company any longer.

I decided to try Chewy's new line of dog food, "American Journey" limited Ingredient, Lamb & Sweet Potato. It's been a week and my dog is getting physically worse with his stools. Today he had severe diarrhea all over the house. At the end he produced approx. 2 Tablespoons of bright red blood. He's a 3 year-old healthy Pit Bull. I contacted Chewy to tell them how my dog was responding to their food and asked if they are outsourcing any ingredients from China. They gal looked into it and said, the last answer to this question was in 2020 and they stated they were getting vitamins and minerals from China. It's 2022 now and we know that it's even harder to get ingredients now, so how much are they getting from China now?
In 2007 my little dogs almost died from what China was putting in dog food, Melamine. I had to give my dogs IV solution 2 x a day for months to save their lives, I was a part of that Class Action Lawsuit, I don't want to go through this again! I asked if they would pay for my dog to go to the vet. They told me, IF my Vet thinks it was from the dog food then the bills would go to their legal department to see if they would. I'm very curious what else they are now getting from China? I don't trust that government at all! We need to full disclosure for all our animals food.
I tried this one because it "appeared" to be good. I will stick with the expensive high end food and no longer trust the Big Box or Chewy for my animals. I am also going to make his food, which will be $$$$ since he's young and 75 lbs. I contacted the FDA just in case. When you've gone through almost losing a dog due to American companies wanting to save money and there isn't really any oversight on our pet food, you become a bit paranoid. I just wanted to give people a heads up in case their dogs start having diarrhea or vomiting.

Same story as others, placed order as existing client. Vet was contacted and sent in refill. Days go by and I get Chewy email, no response from vet received and forward to the vet. Two days later receive the same Chewy email again and vet, THE SAME DAY, approved refill for the second time. 10 days later, no meds! Go to my Chewy account and pharmacy cancelled it, without notice claiming the vet didn't respond. I gave dates and times they refilled and surprised, they found the TWO refills approved by the vet. Now, instead of them seeing it as a duplicate, they interpreted their failure as a request for two of the same product, instead of refill it twice. Worse than that, they tried to claim they received them both "yesterday" yet they had cancelled the refill.
That was Monday of this week. It is Thursday. Almost a full month since requesting the refill. Status on my chewy account shows they are claiming they received the Rx 3 days ago, not almost a month ago. They still didn't send it out until 3 days after their screw-up notification instead of making it a priority. It MIGHT be here before the weekend. Almost a full month after ordering and more than 3 weeks after the vet called in the refill twice because they claim the first was not received. They are sending me two, in error at my cost, instead of one refill and one held in abeyance. I decided rather than cancel the duplicate which they would surely mess up, to keep it and hope what they send won't expire. It has become a clown show at the pharmacy with no ownership.

I've been using Chewy's autoship for cat/dog food for awhile now. I have 5 pets so the boxes are quite heavy. Every single month, the FedEx drivers leave these really heavy boxes all the way on the street instead of bringing it to my porch. My husband and I are disabled and cannot carry these, we usually have to wait for our neighbor to be available.
Last month, I chatted with a Chewy rep and asked him if he can handle this or should I call Fedex. He promised me he would handle it and make a complaint to the higher ups at Chewy, he told me this would not happen again. Well, today the heavy boxes were left on the street again. I'm blaming Chewy since I was promised by their rep this would not happen again and since they choose to use Fedex for delivery instead of a better service. I cancelled my entire autoship order and will not use Chewy again since they cannot seem to ensure my boxes are left near my door (like the rep told me would happen). If you're disabled, or if you're unable to carry heavy items, Chewy may not be for you.

An agent informed me that because I was a new client, I should have received an email from their security dept., which would ask me to answer some questions, so they could determine that I was legitimate. I informed the agent that I did not receive the email. She checked her records, and verified that no email had been sent. She also stated that it looked like the security dept. had dropped the ball. With that, she asked me a few questions, which I answered correctly, and stated that the security dept. would review my answers. If all answers were correct, my order would ship asap.
That night I received another email from Chewy asking me to change my password. I complied. The next day I received an email containing an apology and a little lecture explaining why I should not have ordered late in the week. I also received another notice saying my items had shipped.

I am not trying to be rude but the customer service needs to do a lot better. I placed an order on June 23rd for a prescription Nexgard flea medication for my 5 dogs who all weigh the same. For like 2 weeks straight they’ve been suffering from fleas and they keep biting and scratching on their bodies. It’s so bad you can see the redness on their tails and backs. I usually order the same flea medication from 1-800 pet meds but I decided to try something new after I saw your holiday deals. I am now sure I will never order from here again.
After I placed my order on June 23rd I understood that before the order can go through they have to contact my vet and confirm the prescription. It took them all the way to June 29TH to ask me to verify my information even though I had already placed an order from this site before and I had no problems. I called out to y’all and I confirmed my information to a nice lady at around 10:38 pm and she told me my order would be shipped out shortly.
The next day I get an email saying that my order has been canceled because I needed to verify my info even though I already verified it. I quickly sent out an email saying that I already verified my information and provided proof of it. Chewy emailed back saying that I was right about me verifying my information and asked me if I wanted to place my order again so I asked them to replace my order. Then the next few days the same email is sent out that my order has been canceled and that I need to verify my info.
This has been happening every day since June 29TH and today I Decided to call again and I asked them to place my order again because my dogs are almost at the point where they’re bleeding from so much biting and scratching. I ask the lady how much longer the order was gonna take and she told me they haven’t even contacted my vet about the prescription. And that they probably won’t be able to reach out to the vet until after the holidays. Then she said I’m probably not going to get my order not this week coming up but the next. When this whole time they could have contacted my vet after June 23rd when I originally placed my order. I’m sorry but I can’t wait two more weeks for my dogs to get their flea meds when I placed it almost two weeks ago. I'm really disappointed with the service and that you guys are extending my dogs' suffering.

We, and our vet are in NC. The vet could not fill a script that was supposedly being sent to another state. I called three times and each time was told that the address the company showed was indeed a NC address however each time they sent the order to the vet a FL address appeared.
Asked to speak to a pharmacy rep and was transferred to Tricia. Tricia clearly was annoyed as she came on the oh in and verified the order. As I tried to explain she interrupted and told us “there is no FL address on file so I don’t know what your vet is talking about.” I told her that a rep from our vet was online with us to try to help solve the problem and she yelled at me and told me “she didn’t have to do a conference call and could help me when I could help myself.” She then kept threatening to hang up. I finally told her to do so and she did. I could not believe the level of service that she offered and nor could the vet- tech.

Used Chewy.com Pharmacy for medication for 2 dogs. Initial order was great. Processed easily, received in a timely manner, affordable. Then I tried to reorder. Placed the order, notified it was delivered - not delivered to me. Placed the order again, making certain address, etc..were correct - notified it was delivered - again - not received. One of the medications is serious heart medication for my dog - so at this point had to obtain some locally or would have lost the the dog. More communication with Chewy over the course of TWO MORE WEEKS - meds sent to wrong address - twice. Verified on phone - it is coming. 2 days later - message - need to verify address again - will go out in 1-2 days.
Finally - last notification - will have to verify with your Vet (Vet had already verified 3 times - they were afraid I was overdosing my dog). Meds were never sent, and communication within the phone/pharmacy - was nonexistent. While those answering the calls were always polite - at no time was any concern exhibited by anyone - like have you gotten meds...NEVER. Finally have gotten verbal assurance that my money will be refunded - not yet happened. If you are in need of any pet medication in a timely manner, and from a reliable source - I would strongly urge you to go elsewhere - serious pet conditions are not addressed appropriately.

So I'm inconvenienced because their packers screwed up? Petty and cheap doesn't cut it.

We've used Chewy for almost 10 years, and have always had an excellent experience - very large inventory of prescription and non-prescription items at great prices and extremely fast, consistent 2-day delivery. And their customer service is incredible. Two recent examples: 1) When FedEx failed to deliver a Chewy box of food, etc. on the expected date, Chewy immediately sent a second box of all the items and told us to donate them if the first box ever arrived (which it did and we did), and 2) We recently had to say goodbye to our 15 year old dog; when we notified Chewy online, we almost immediately received a long, heartfelt email from a customer service rep, and then they sent flowers to our home. We can't say enough about good things about Chewy, and have recommended them to everyone we know who has pets.

I have ordered multiple products from Chewy and have found their prices to be the best. Recently I have been ordering prescription medicine for my dog. Chewy is better than the site attached to my Vet's website. They are less expensive, quicker and friendlier. We recently lost a pet and I had to cancel my order. There was no hassle and no problem to do so. Surprisingly two days later We received flowers from Chewy...signed by the staff member I spoke with. This was totally unexpected but so appreciated and meant so much to us that a company the size of Chewy would take the time to care and to acknowledge your loss. Chewy will get all of my pet supply business. Always the best service and the best prices all delivered to my door. Chewy.com staff are the benchmark for customer service that all companies should strive for. Thank you Chewy.com.

I was a Chewy.com customer for years. I could rely on them to get my order right and received it timely. A couple of months ago I started having issues receiving my orders in two days as was their policy. Sometimes it took five days. Recently I received a call from OnTrac, the new carrier used by Chewy.com. They said they couldn’t deliver because they couldn’t find my address. It turned out that their system had a misspelling in the street name. The girl corrected their error and told me I wouldn’t receive the order until Tuesday since Monday was a holiday. I told her that it was unacceptable as I needed the order to feed three dogs. She said she would request a Saturday delivery but couldn’t guarantee it.
Unfortunately the brand I have been feeding them was specific to Chewy and could not be purchased in a store. Switching the food suddenly to another brand would cause intestinal upset. Since I make some of their breakfast food and mix it in with some kibble I knew that was the only option. So I went to the grocery store to buy what was needed to get me through the weekend. I then received an email from Chewy stating my order was delayed and if I had any questions to call their customer service number. So I called it. The person answering my call mumbled something. I could not understand a word he said and told him so, he repeated it and I got about half of what he said the second time. Enough to know I was talking to a representative of Chewy.
I told him I needed my order delivered by Saturday. He said that once the order leaves Chewy warehouse and was in the hands of the carrier there was nothing That chewy could do. He gave me the number to OnTrac. Their representative said that he would request the driver go back to pick up the order and assured me that food orders were handled with more expediency than other orders. He assured me someone would call me back. No one did. I gave Chewy another call. The young lady was apologetic and offered me a partial refund. Since that would not resolve the issue, I declined her offer. It has become obvious to me that Chewy doesn’t care about my pets as much as they claim to, or as much as they used to. I will select a different brand of food to gradually change my dogs to and I will no longer use Chewy.com for my pets needs.

Chewy was contacted after I received many updates from FedEx regarding shipping of pet food and supplies. My order went from Ocala, FL (Chewy headquarters) to Kernersville, NC (which is only about 2 hours from our home in NC). After sitting in Kernersville at a FedEx it then went on a truck to Hutchins, TX where it sat for a few days, then to Tuscaloosa, AL where it sat for a day, then back to Kernersville, NC then finally to Durham, NC where it was delivered 9 days after ordering. If Chewy is going to advertise 1 to 2 day shipping then do it! I contacted Chewy reps on 2 occasions and they both told me a whole different story. One told me if I did not receive the box by Thursday at 10:00 PM a credit would be issued to my credit card because "that was not their way of doing business".
The 2nd rep told me they were sorry for it all and would give me a 10% (up to a $10 maximum) of a discount for my next order - even when I told them they lost me as a customer. This is NOT the first time this has occurred. Two more instances of bad delivery service and Chewy informed me they have no control over that. Yes, they do -- they can stop their contract with FedEx anytime they want. After getting so many complaints in NC one would think they would reconsider their shipping company.
Another instance I received a box so badly damaged that it probably came from Chewy warehouse like that - the food was opened up and rancid which destroyed all the contents of the box. It was riddled with worms and smelled so bad! They did credit me for the whole box and resent the items within 36 hours. I did tell them this time around that I can't have this any longer. I depend on Chewy and so do my pets. They have lost me as a good customer for over 5 years.
I'm done with reps that misrepresent Chewy and I'm done with anything to do with them any longer. This last shipping incident was the last! They tried to tell me that they were looking for the items in their warehouse and just "accidentally" put in the shipping information. I don't find that statement truthful because I had a tracking number and it was the same all the way through. Each warehouse in each part of the country issues tracking numbers. That box traveled all over the Southeast. I'm done with the awful shipping lately and the excuses of Chewy. And I'm tired of their "cutesy" talk - it's been "ruff" for a few days, etc. Yeah - I'd say so. Chewy is done for me!

I have been a customer for over a year, my dog's medication, food and clothing, supplies came from Chewy and my cat's clothing. In March 2021 I had spoke to customer service about my dog's meds. Not to charge or ship before the 3rd. I was assured I wouldn’t be charged until that date, I also requested a 15 day supply instead of 30 day. Explaining if it was charged earlier and more than 15 tablets it would create an overdraft and other problems like short on rent. The meds shipped before the 1st, it created a $45 overdraft and since they sent 30 days it also cost me a late fee on rent. To date their mistake has now cost me $240. I spoke to a pharmacy supervisor who refunded half the meds and also sent me 15 days worth of a costly med for April.
I contacted the company a few days ago and the pharmacy supervisor was out of line. She told me they aren’t responsible for how I choose to take care of my bank account and she will not do anything to make up for my loss. The way she spoke to me is completely unacceptable for someone in her position. I’m contacting the Attorney General and filing a claim against this horrible company for not taking care of the losses due to their customer service person's negligence, as well as the pharmacy supervisor. I’ve since found my dog's costly medication elsewhere for almost $20 cheaper per month.

I called Chewy to ask about returning the test, I was so devastated and it was pricey. They said to donate to our shelter (I did) and refunded the money - but that's not it...
One of my mom's favorite plant was her Christmas Cactus that she loved to display every holiday. When she passed, we gave it to her former caretaker. Lo and behold, around Christmas, Chewy sent me a condolence letter about Ruby along with...you guessed it - A Christmas Cactus. The same day - my mom's cactus' new owner, sent a picture of it blooming to me. I was a bucket of messy tears all over the place. I was so overwhelmed by the Kismet and the sentiment of Chewy.

Chewy is one of a few online sites that I use for my animal's needs. Anyone that knows me knows that my animals are my kids in every sense of the word. My Birthday is on March 5th and, on this day, I went to open my apartment door and noticed a small package from Chewy, however, I didn't remember ordering anything. I opened the package and saw a wrapped gift inside along with a card addressed to me. My initial thought was a friend used an old Chewy package to surprise me with a gift.
When I opened the card it was actually from the staff at Chewy. I proceeded to unwrap the gift and saw the back of a wooded canvas. When I turned the canvas over, it was a personal drawing of my cat, Tigger. My mouth dropped! It looked exactly like him to a T. All the way from the small stripes on his head to the shape of his mouth and chin and the color of his eyes. They used his picture profile from my account to do an actual drawing of him. It was absolutely amazing!! So much so that I began to cry and proceeded to message all my friends and family about what I had just received.
I've been in the customer service field most of my life and am currently a sales coordinator for both Hilton and Marriott hotels. I was never so impressed with any retailer as I was in that moment. The time and thoughtfulness behind this gift was beyond any words I can bring forth. In that simple act Chewy made an impression on me that I don't believe anyone else will be able to top. Seriously, to all those at Chewy, and especially to the person who drew my Tiggy, thank you so very much! I love this picture and this has sincerely touched my heart!!

I have been an autoship customer for 3 plus years. The only change I make is when they decide to discontinue a product and I have to find a substitute. Starting a few months ago I received usual confirmation email saying my order was shipped. But when it arrived items were missing. When I inquired, was told items were out of stock. I questioned why I got confirmation email saying all items on order had shipped or why I wasn't notified some were out of stock. No satisfactory answer given. Over a 3 month period, 3 times different items were not included. Never explained why or given notice before items arrived.
This week normal autoship confirmation was emailed to me giving arrival date. Did not arrive date specified. Received email after scheduled arrival date saying only items "delayed" (no reason or explanation). Since then have been given 3 more arrival dates each a few days in the future. Can not count on them shipping what they say they will and when they say it will arrive. I now have to go to store to buy dog food as I am out even though it was supposed to be autoshipped last week.
The purpose of autoship is to not run out but that requires Chewy to do its part, which it does not now seem capable of. In the past year fulfillment service has gone downhill. I attributed some of issues to Covid but this latest problem of not having autoship order delivered near the date promised has caused me to lose all confidence in their abilities. Theft of product has never happened while I have been a customer. I most resent being sent emails saying your autoship order listing items is scheduled for a particular day and when that day arrives, only then do I find out some items aren't included, or worse yet, nothing is delivered. Aggravation is compounded by then being given subsequent incorrect delivery dates, and all without a reason for.

Call me paranoid, but year after year it’s the same…Mainly only the less expensive products ever go on sale.

I will cut companies some slack due to the weather and absence issues. That said, Chewy is just can't seem to get ADM Senior Glow delivered to my home anymore. This morning, I contacted ADM customer service and they provided an alternate distributor, but it is already too late for me to get the feed and I am in the process of switching to another that I know is available locally in many stores where I live.
I have been trying to order ADM Senior Glo horse feed from them since Jan 4. That order is in limbo. Chewy shows it shipped on Jan 7 with ETA of Jan 9, which is still greyed out meaning they do not have a record of it being delivered. One replacement order was allegedly shipped and received. I was at home when I got the notification and went outside, checked all around my house and yard, checked with my neighbors. It looks like it was delivered to a completely different state. I called and they created another order on Tuesday, Jan 11.
Even though they claim the item has shipped and is on its way, if you check the FedEx details, only the label has been created and FedEx says the information will be updated as soon as they receive the item to ship. So when you get the notice from Chewy, and they say the item "shipped", they mean the label was created, not that the item is in transit. I am supposed to receive the item on Saturday, Jan 15, but FedEx shows they haven't even received the package yet.
Chewy's only solution to orders that never ship or get "stuck" or mis-delivered is to create another $0.00 order that also goes into a "label printed" limbo that never goes anywhere. I had to take off work yesterday and make an emergency trip to start mixing in another feed I can get locally because switching feed too quickly for a horse can result in colic. I am done with Chewy, and also with the brand of horse feed.

Been using Chewy for as long as I can remember. Never had any problems but today they lost a very valuable customer!! I submitted an order on Dec 22, 2021 and it is now Jan 11th and I haven’t received my order. I repurchased it just because I needed soft senior food. I also called Chewy and spoke to a MANAGER named KAT. I provided her with a order# and all the info I needed and I’m being called a liar and told I never ordered the item!! I informed them on my app I can prove food was ordered and my bank account that money was withdrawn!! Still refused to help me or replace my items!!
I have 5 dogs, 1 squirrel, 2 bearded dragons, 2 leopard geckos, and a ton of fish. Needless to say how I was treated on this call Chewy lost my business!! I DO NOT deserve to be treated so horribly and accused of LYING when I had all the proof on hand!! Horrible customer service and because how KAT the customer service manager treated me I am forced to leave this review, and will never shop with them again.

For the past 5 orders, my Chewy order either takes 10 days to receive or I have to request a replacement order as the original one is lost. If I had to depend on Chewy to feed my Mals and the two cats, they would starve. I have given them numerous chances and am done doing business with Chewy. My shipment today was yet again, lost somewhere in the Chicago area. I would not recommend using Chewy for your pet's needs at all.

On August 4th 2021 I lost my Little 4 legged Daughter, Titi (Maltese 16 years young). I miss her ever so much...Titi was the Heart Beat of this Home...She brought Life, Happiness and a Feeling that I just can't put into words. Not a Day goes by that I miss her...I look at pictures...videos and for a split second it helps and then reality sinks in.
I am writing this today January the 5th 2022...I'm still not even close to moving on from her departure but I need to do this because it's the right thing to do! Most of us are quick to write Negative Reviews (I'm included) yet we don't take the time to acknowledge when someone does something nice for us. Someone knocked on my door a few days after my Titi passed...It was a delivery of a Flower Arrangement for Titi and my Family from Chewy...I never ever expected that...but here was a gesture that moved all of us deep inside. Thank you!!!

My debit card had been hacked and I had to get a new one and because I have auto ship I forgot to give the new one to Chewy. As soon as I saw the email that my debit card had failed I called them to give them my new card number. I received notice of shipment that was going to be delivered on Tuesday January 4th. I immediately thank them for the delivery and told them that Riley would be without his only and favorite treat for one day and before I could blink they had sent another shipment order notification that it would be delivered on Monday and that Riley would not have to go without his favorite treat at all. I also had an experience when my 17-year-old cavi died when I canceled my autoship and I was completely shocked when I received the most beautiful bouquet of flowers from Chewy! God bless this company and your customer service is the finest of any place I have ever ordered from. Never hesitate to get products from Chewy!!

I ordered & paid for cat food. I'd been shopping with them for a while. My package was due Friday, December 31 2021. I received an email from them stating it had been delivered that morning. I called our Security office from work. They had no record of it. They searched twice. I had several chats & a phone call to Chewy while I was at work. I was told by phone & in a chat if it didn't show up by 8pm they would re send it. Since they didn't try to help track at Fedex, I had to do that also (again from work). They had no idea. I called them back at 7pm & was told they would re send it. I didn't hear from them by phone or email.
Today is New Year's & I spent a few hours running to different Stores. Couldn't find much....It's a holiday. I contacted Chewy earlier today to find out if they resent it.... No they didn't. Turns out they refunded me & they're out of stock. Here I was at work doing their job as if I work for Chewy. They're out of stock on almost everything but they told me & I recorded the call....they would re send the order but of course they can't. They wouldn't do anything to help me file a claim with Fedex. I guess they think it's self service now.

Don't misread. Chewy.com as a company is great. No complaints on the company itself. The FedEx shipping they are using on the other hand is making me regret my decisions. FedEx had multiple excuses when my deliveries aren't going to show up almost monthly. Again I say. Chewy is great but they need to switch shipping companies cause I can see it causing then much revenue loss in the future.

I have been using Chewy for years for food and prescription deliveries for my Rudy Bear. Not only is their pricing the best, but they deliver everything extremely fast. I have always received ample communication if things are out of stock or delayed. I've accidentally ordered the wrong food and when I tried to return it, they told me to donate the food to a shelter and gave me a full refund. Every experience I've had with them has been overwhelmingly positive.
My Rudy Bear, unfortunately, passed away last week and I missed an auto-ship to cancel. When I realized the order was placed, I reached out to see if I could cancel the order. Michael immediately shared his condolences and canceled the order as well as all future auto-ship orders. He was kind and sincere at a time when I needed it most. A few short days later, I received a surprise package containing a bouquet of yellow roses from Michael and Chewy. My husband and I were blown away by this gesture as it was totally unexpected but so very appreciated. We are not anywhere near ready for another pup, but when the time comes, we will come back as loyal customers. I also highly recommend Chewy to all of my friends and family for their pets' needs.

I'll try to keep this brief. Recently we lost two of our fur babies Mugsy and Hazy about 2 months apart. So we decided we did not need our autoship order from Chewy. So I canceled it online and sent a message explaining why we canceled. Well to our surprise yesterday we received a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a heartfelt condolences note. We were blown away. We definitely recommend them and will use them again in the future. Prices are comparable to Walmart and service has been topnotch for the couple of years we used them. I have pictures of the flowers and the note. Not sure how to add them.

I cannot express how amazing this company and the people working at this company are. There was a huge ordeal with my order (at no fault of Chewy, it was actually my horrible vet's fault) and they handled everything and were so kind and helpful even at times when I was freaking out, scared for the well-being of my pets. They are just so kind and sympathetic. I was calling and calling pretty much every day and everyone was so kind and understanding and helpful. I literally spent 10 minutes trying to find a place to write a good review because I am so impressed. And today I just received a call that my biweekly order might be delayed because of holidays and that they are willing to ship it early. Like that is so great of the company to call me and let me know ahead of time and try to help out. This is an amazing company with amazing people and I cannot recommend these guys enough! Thank you Chewy!!

I have been ordering from Chewy for years. I have probably spent $5k or more. Now orders are taking a week to show up or not show up at all sometimes. Customer service used to be very good, but now it seems like they really could care less. I don’t need this hassle, I will just pick up my pets needs when I am out running my other errands. I’m done with their nonchalant attitude.

Gotta give Chewy.com a huge shoutout. Several days ago, a subscription delivery of dog food from Chewy showed up at my door. I had neglected to cancel it after my 13 year old Maltese, Lici’s, passing the previous month. I called customer service and talked to “Kevin”. He couldn’t have been nicer and was sincerely empathetic to my loss. He refunded my purchase and suggested that I donate the bag of dog food to our local shelter in Lici’s name. THEN, a few days later, a beautiful flower arraignment arrived, from Chewy and Kevin, expressing their condolences. Damn. This is how you build loyalty in your customer base. I can never forget the kindness I felt from this big company that could easily, easily overlook my trauma. They took the time and spent the money and I’ll be grateful to the very end.

I recently removed my cat from my pets profile list at Chewy.com because she passed. When I did that, I was asked the reason why. I replied that my cat had passed. A week went by and I noticed I had received a refund from Chewy for some meds that I had purchased for my cat before she died. Chewy had quietly refunded that purchase on their own and without my request. I am blown away by the kind and thoughtful refund gesture made by Chewy. I have never seen such class and kindness from any merchant in all of my years on the planet. Thank you Chewy for your selfless kindness and genuine customer appreciation. I will never ever forget!

Customer service that sticks to a script over chat and isn't helpful. I placed an order and noticed that even though the item hasn't shipped, the price has gone down. When I utilized the chat service to both check in on why it hasn't shipped and to see if a price adjustment was possible, I was told that it was out of their hands. Very unclear that 3rd party vendors can sell on the Chewy website and the fact that I can't even cancel the order to take advantage of a sale is ridiculous. I would have to wait to receive the product, then initiate a return to basically receive a price adjustment since their policy is so strict. No ability to simply cancel the order despite the fact that the order has not even shipped. Complete waste of time. I am officially done purchasing with Chewy.

I had placed 4 orders with Chewy, however, 2 of those were for a senior pet that died shortly thereafter. Chewy not only refunded the money but had me donate the food bought for him to a shelter. Added to that they sent us a bouquet of flowers in his memory. Then I placed 2 new orders for kittens but got adult cats. Again, they fully refunded my money and asked me to donate the food. No questions asked. I am 60 years old and have NEVER dealt with such a great company. Just when I thought customer service was non-existent they proved me wrong. I no longer buy food locally at big box stores it all comes from Chewy.com. Great job Chewy!!!

Dear Chewy, I am a veterinarian who actively supports you and your services routinely but in my personal and professional life. I recently ordered a product online and had my staff approve the prescription item the very next day. I waited for the approval email but never received it. I then waited a few days and the rest of my order (all non prescription items) were delivered. I logged into the portal on Sat to confirm my order was approved. I called customer service and was advised by 2 different reps that my order was cancelled because my vet didn't approve the product. I was then told that it was cancelled because it timed out after 5 days (also not true because the order was placed and I called within 5 days).
I understand mistakes happen but 1. Please take accountability for your mistakes and stop blaming the vets who support you. 2. Make it right. Don't just argue with me then offer me 10% off after I tell you what shoddy customer service you are providing. By the time I asked for some kind of compensation I was already so frustrated I vowed to never order scripts from you again.

Signed up as a new customer with Chewy.com on Friday 11/12. I ordered some items as a one time purchase and then signed up for their autoship option for my cat's litter and food. On their website, they have advertised that it's 1-3 day shipping. I received a portion of my items on Sat. 11/13 but some items were missing. Checked my order on my account and the remaining items are scheduled to arrive on 11/17. So their guarantee of 1-3 days shipping is a lie.
Secondly, Sunday night I was checking my bank account online and noticed many charges from chewy.com. I had not ordered anything else besides my original first order. Confused, I call their customer service and was told that chewy.com will do what they call pre-authorization charges when items are shipped from their warehouses. The rep told me that since my items were shipped from multiple warehouses, that I should expect to see many charges, but that they would "drop off" in a few days. So I have all these chewy.com charges to my account, along with the initial payment that was taken when I first made the purchase. None of these charges add up to the original purchase amount. I've heard of gas stations doing pre-authorization because you will not necessarily know how much gas you will get. But for an online pet store to do pre-authorization charges is ridiculous. Canceled my auto-ship order and will never order from them again.

I don't write many reviews but I want people to know what a wonderful company Chewy is. We have been using them for around 2 years. We normally shopped at Pet Smart but my daughter used Chewy for her dog food delivery. I went online and found out the food I bought was cheaper than at the store. Plus the toys are a whole lot cheaper and my animals love their toys. I like that you can set up auto-ship and not have to worry about placing an order each month. It's really easy to add to your auto-ship if you want to order a toy, extra treats, or a bed they have it all. I usually get my shipment the next day. Although I have had to wait for 2 days before. Shipment is truly extra fast.
One month we received our dry dog food, and it had an opening in it. So we called customer service to find out how to exchange the bag. Unlike other companies, there was no wait to speak to a customer service representative. The representative told us not to worry about returning the bag. To throw it out and they would get us a new one out that day. They also refunded the price of the food just for the trouble. Tell me what other company does that.
My 84-year-old mother started using Chewy because of the great service I had received, plus she didn't have to go out each month for supplies for her dog. She has an older dog and ordered a set of steps to help her get up on the bed. These were not cheap stairs. They were made of wood and cost over $100.00. Well, I went over to put them together for her, but they were way too big for her bedroom. So we called Chewy and explained the situation. They immediately refunded my mother's money, (she had it in 2 days) and told us to give the stairs to someone who might want them or to a local animal association that could use them. I recommend Chewy to everyone I know or talk to that has a pet. I love Chewy and their customer care is wonderful!
