    I have had pets a long time and started using Chewy from a postcard mailed to me when I moved to Florida in 2003. Customer is King! If you need assistance with site or help deciding on a product, call Customer Service. If there is an issue with an item received, call. A real person quickly answers the phone and you immediately know their name. Yesterday I had to call about receiving a wrong size of a doggie bed. I was able to get the right product being shipped to me already out the door today! I was told I could donate the wrong size bed. Since I had adopted Lucky only days ago, I already have it ready to give to the small rescue from which he came.

    I complimented them on the other wonderful products I received, a crate that was easily assembled and the fabulous plush mat that goes inside the crate. They truly love pets, love to help and even empathize when you tell them about the loss of a pet that led to this adoption. Wonderful Customer Service ALL THESE YEARS!

    I ordered some medicine for my little Millie from Chewy to alleviate her allergies. When she died, I let them know to stop the order. I was so incredibly sad. She died in July and I still cry thinking about her. The people from Chewy sent me flowers and a sympathy note. I can't tell you how meaningful that was to me at that time. None of my friends send flowers. Pet people understand what your pet means to you. They are family, not just your dog.

    As I always order by phone because I am not tech savvy I placed my order with Mariza. Was telling him how I lost my cat of 17 years. He was very sympathetic. After helping me set up an account he wished me a Happy Thanksgiving and we hung up. The next morning on my front door was the most beautiful flowers and a note saying sorry for my loss. What an act of KINDNESS and let Chewy know that this person went above and beyond the call of duty. I will put a SHOUT OUT on FB to him and chewy for taking the time to care about their customers.

Maybe they think I didn't deserve good packaging as I used a coupon they sent me unsolicited. Now I wonder if the electronic parts of my order will function correctly or be short lived, not to mention that a 5 lb. jar of Charcoal was in there to bounce around and beat up everything else.

    Our family’s dog started having issues with not wanting to eat. Our vet prescribed a critical care wet dog food to help us syringe food her to help keep her comfortable. There was a delay in receiving the food which was on my vet office’s end and not Chewys. Our dog had passed away and the representative I talked to was so kind and sympathetic that they gave us a full refund, canceled the autoship for us, and had us donate the carton of food to any shelter of our choice in our dog Chelsea’s honor. Then a few days later we received a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a nice message of their condolences on our loss. My family and I never thought a company would so compassionate and go out of their way to help us in our time of grief. I highly recommend and encourage everyone to shop through Chewy.

    I have been ordering from Chewy.com for many years. The entire company, from ordering, to shipping, to customer service has never disappointed. I have switched my dogs' foods many times and have never had any issues with quality. Their shipping is the quickest I've ever seen as well (sometimes even faster than Amazon). If there has been any issue, such as ripped bags of food or damaged product, they are quick to reship out a new item at no cost. If I have ordered a product and needed to return, their response has almost always been to donate it and they will issue a refund. Their customer service representatives are always friendly and helpful as well.

    To top off their amazing services and products, I checked my mail today to find a small package from Chewy. I knew I didn't order anything and was a bit weary. I opened it to find 2 wrapped squares in wrapping paper and when unwrapped were these two adorable painted portraits of 2 of my dogs. It came with a card thanking me for being a loyal customer. I have never had a company send me anything (without being purchased), let alone a personalized portrait of my 2 dogs (which could not be replicated as a stock photo). Even though almost all of my pet product purchases come from Chewy anyway, I will make sure to use them for all purposes.

    I wanted to express my experience because I order from Chewy and this was my first time having a problem. I emailed them and explained that two outfits were not the size I expected. Immediately I got an email that said I would receive a refund and asked me if I wanted the correct size using the card on file and said they would not charge me shipping. They also said to give the wrong size to a shelter or someone in need because they did not need me to return the items. (I expressed that I wanted another size I thought would work for my dog in my original email) I looked at my account and the refund was already there. I really appreciate the customer service and I will definitely continue to order from Chewy.com. Thank you.

    Watch your auto ship carefully! 3 Chewy reps tell me the packages can be delivered on different days & it was suggested that I have a backup bag of cat food just in case. Sure didn’t mind hitting my bank account monthly for up to $200 a month though. Kitten dry, adult cat dry, 2 tubs of cat litter, huge bag of dog food & Feliway diffusers in last order. Yet I find the cat litter on my doorstep & informed other box will be here tomorrow. My animals’ health & wellbeing are a priority for me but not for chewy. Buying in bulk for the month failed dismally after only a few months. I can not think of a single reason to continue to have Bon Bon’s auto ship in the future when there are other companies such as Petco. After all, everyone offers a discount of some sort when buying on a repeated basis. Don’t learn the hard way like I did, tonight.

They helped me with everything and even sent me flowers when she passed. I thought it was super thoughtful of a top corporation to do that when they didn't have to. They refunded all the recent purchases I made without a hassle. It was truly thoughtful and the customer service is amazing with anything you need or if you want to vent. This will always be my place to shop when I'm ready to get another pet. Chewy has made every purchase a great experience and made my life easier when my baby was alive to get autoship and all the necessities I needed for her.

    Watch your bills. California does not charge tax for pet medications. I noticed tax in the amount of $9.90 was being charged on my last order of medication for my dog. I wrote customer service and was told I am correct but they do not have the authority to refund the tax and that it would have to go to a supervisor for approval. A week went by, no response and no refund. I called customer service and was told I was being refunded the tax. No apology and as of now, no refund. I started looking at other invoices and have discovered more tax charges. I can't even imagine how much money they are making off of people not noticing or knowing about California Tax. Isn't this how class action lawsuits come about?

    This past year when the pandemic hit, it became hard to buy cat food in the stores and online. They frequently were out of the kind I needed to get or they had restrictions on the amount I could buy. At the same time, my 6-year-old cat was diagnosed with cancer. I needed to keep his weight up with his favorite kind of foods.

    Enter Chewy.com to the rescue! I discovered that I could buy cases of my cat's favorite foods online and have them auto shipped at the frequency I chose. This was such a welcome relief. I could even go in and change quantities and advance shipments when I wanted to. During a really difficult time of caring for my cat and trying to preserve his quality of life and his health, I relied on Chewy.com to make the job easier. When Chewy.com learned that I had to say goodbye to my beloved pet, they were extravagantly kind and empathetic. I can't say enough good about this company. They are a true pet partner during your pet's life, and I highly recommend them. Thank you, Chewy!

    I want to be fair about this company. I have been ordering products, like food, toys, harnesses, etc. for both my dogs and my daughter's cat for a long time and have always had great service. However, for the first time, I tried ordering pharmaceuticals. My dog is diabetic and we just moved from one state to another. My old vet carried insulin and I was able to purchase whenever I needed with just a day's notice. I discovered in my new state, vets don't carry medication for sale.

    I called everywhere (except Costco because it hadn't opened yet in my town) and none of the pharmacies, Walmart/Sam's Club/CVS, etc. did not carry insulin for dogs. I could only purchase online. I ordered with Chewy because they had the best price. At this point, I had about a week supply, so I thought that was plenty of time. Each day, I checked on my order and was told, it would ship tomorrow. 6 days later and it still has not shipped!! I am dangerously low now.

    On the weekend, I called other Costco's and there was one in another town that had it in stock. I asked my vet to call in another prescription because I am about to run out and Chewy still hadn't shipped. Luckily, I got another bottle at that Costco. What is up with Chewy?? Don't they realize it's life or death if my dog doesn't get her insulin?? I did try to speak with a supervisor twice when I called, but each time placed on indefinite hold and finally hung up. They are great for other things, but if you need meds for your dog, I would suggest trying to be a month in advance because they obviously have no sense in the timeliness of important medication.

    We were victims of one of the August 2020 fires on the West coast - losing everything we owned in a matter of minutes. We were suddenly out of a home, ending up in a hotel with our 3 dogs in a neighboring city. The dogs' flea and heartworm meds that we'd purchased months prior from Chewy.com were also lost in the fire. I had emailed Chewy.com telling them about the fire and the loss. They immediately said they would replace the meds free of charge - which by itself was a huge gesture of kindness! As promised, new meds for the dogs soon arrived at our hotel (and thank you Luke, Britnie and Carlos for your heartfelt messages!).

    But wait - there's more... In addition to quickly sending out the replacement meds, Chewy also sent flowers to us with a kind note attached. That really touched us - brought us to tears to think that a corporation would do something that personalized and special. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. In a time when you're usually just a number to a big company, Chewy.com was really there for our pets, and us - so compassionate - and added those personalized touches that will make us loyal customers for life.

    I used to be a big fan of Chewy but their service and customer service has plummeted over the past year or two. Recently they have sent many overpacked boxes, causing damage to the products, and then demand that I spend my own valuable time and resources RETURNING the ruined products to them before they will refund or replace! As if I work for them when I have PAID for these goods and have not received, they put conditions on KEEPING UP THEIR END OF THE BARGAIN by replacing the unusable product. Eventually they did replace the product but only after about six conversations up the supervisor chain. A ridiculous waste of time. And not even a $5 coupon for all the hours wasted on their mistake....

    Repeat complaints do nothing, they do not appear to care about retaining customers anymore. Moved most of my orders to other retailers, only keeping Chewy for items that cannot be found elsewhere because PETCO now owns Chewy. Very sad and disappointing, another good company ruined by selling itself to the highest bidder.

I ran into a snag when getting the approval for the prescription diet due to my maiden name being listed with Chewy.com and my married name with the vet hospital BUT Chewy emailed me with status updates and after a few days I called them and a real person answered the phone! Within 1 phone call the situation was solved and approval was received from my vet while I held for a few minutes. They even gave me a discount due to the delay.

    About 3 weeks later my cat, Chunk, stopped eating for 2 days which is when we found out he had a large mass in his stomach, fluid in his abdomen and lymphoma. I called Chewy.com to cancel my autoship order since we had to send Chunk to heaven. This is where the 10 stars comes in...3 days later a beautiful bouquet of flowers was delivered from them with condolences regarding Chunk. I think it says a lot about a company when they pay attention to detail, discount your order for a minor delay (which was my error), customer service is a human and most importantly the care they show for their customers. What an incredible company which I would highly recommend to anyone! Plus they deliver (added bonus)!

    I ordered a pain med for my dog twice. Both times the order took close to two weeks to receive. Customer service was no help in getting the order any quicker despite the fact that the second time it was on a auto ship order and should have been better prepared to send on time. I will now only use my vet to get the med so my dog doesn’t suffer without the med.

    I placed an order for a 6 month supply of HeartWorm prevention for 4 of my dogs. While filling out the order I was asked for my vet info and you are given the option to send the prescription in or have Chewy contact your vet for approval. The site says it is faster if you allow them to contact your vet. I did this and waited, and waited, and waited. I never got an email or a phone call to let me know of any issues that they were having but this order was not being filled. The order just showed "Preparing to ship" in the status.

    I called and was told they were still trying to get approval and would try again and it should ship out soon. This did not happen! a week later I called again, same story! I then called my vet to check with them and make sure there was no issue there they informed me that many of their patients had reported similar issues with Chewy RX.

    I called Chewy back and this time was not hanging up until it was resolved. That rep was amazing and she called the pharmacy while I was on hold and she got to the bottom of it. I now have the pills I ordered just 1 month after placing the order! this is uncalled for! I also ordered a shower tool for bathing the dogs that was received 1 day after placing the order! I may order food treats toys and grooming tools in the future but it will be a cold day in hell before I order meds again! it is not worth any discount you might get from them I had to work hard to finally get the meds sent to me! I hope this will help future shoppers.

    I have been using Chewy for many years now and for the past year started ordering ** for my dog. I would receive the order on time every 2 weeks with no issues. Since Covid hit it has been a very bad experience. While I understand circumstances have changed, my dog getting his life sustaining medicine should not be compromised. Every time the autoship was placed it would just state preparing to ship and nothing after that. I would place the call a week later and am told the Pharmacist is waiting on the doctor for the RX. However when I call my doctor's office, they have not contacted them. After getting verbal approvals, but order is still not being worked. I was told by the Customer Service Rep that a Pharmacist would call me back and again a week later...nothing. I cannot believe that I get no phone call or responses to my dog's needs.

    I attempted to have 2 prescriptions filled by Chewy and ordered some pizzle.

First we were told that they could not get through to our vet, then they said that our vet had requested chewy not contact them any longer for prescription verification. Well which is is?! You can't get through to them or they told you not to contact them? Furthermore as you have had these prescriptions for 9 days now, when were you planning on informing me there was a problem and that I would need to mail in the original scripts?! Now the ant problem, I ordered some loose pizzle. These were just thrown in a shipping box. Ants had invaded the box and 100s of ants were inside unknown to us, which proceeded to get all over my kitchen because that is where we opened it.

    Here I sit waiting a week later for my dog’s prescription. The vet was completely aggravated that I requested Chewy instead of buying the meds from him ($100 at vet, $25 at Chewy - same meds). So, he refused to fax the prescription to Chewy (he provided a written Rx). Instead, I was required to mail the written prescription by USPS to Chewy. I have inquired numerous times this week from Chewy customer service. I am 99% certain that Rx was in their hands by Monday. However, a week later...

    I ordered 3 prescription products from Chewy for my dog that has CHF and an enlarged heart. I ordered Heart Care Dry Food, Liver Care Canned Food, and treats ALL prescription. I've never ordered prescription dog food before. I spoke to my vet and they said they would be contacted and give them approval. So I made my purchases. Filled out my vets information and waited. After a couple days I called my vet and they had heard nothing. I called Chewy and they said they had faxed twice. They assured me they had my vets fax number and said they would try again. Few days later still nothing.

    So I speak to Chewy again and they have me on the phone for nearly an hour and while I'm on hold, they get verbal approval from my vet for unlimited ordering. Finally! In the mean time, I have a sick dog who needs that food. So a couple days later I get a email telling me that my order would be cancelled due to no vet approval! So I call Chewy AGAIN and speak to a manager. I tell her all about it and she puts me in hold. (Each time I called about this order which looking at my phone history was 9 times within two weeks!) So this manager looks everything over and says she can tell by who all was involved with my previous call, that they had contacted my vet but never documented the approval! I am livid at this point. So she says, "This is clearly our fault. I am going to close this out and make sure you get this order sent to you, free of charge." I said thank you, this has been pretty ridiculous.

    So at this point I have the fax number in front of me so I compare it with her and that's fine, so she says it will all be taken care of. A few days later I had an appointment with my vet so I just ask them while I am there about it but they STILL had received nothing! I ask them to just give me the written RX's figuring I will just upload them when I get home. When I get home and sign in, I find out that because the manager closed it out so they could comp me on it, I couldn't upload it. So I call them yet again. On the phone again forever and the guy I talked to got verbal approval AGAIN from my vet. I also found out that they did NOT have the correct fax number even after we compared numbers on one of my earlier calls.

    So I explain to this guy my order was covered free per manager so-in-so (have her name) so he says he will now send it to those who take care of that. Said he would call me the next day to be sure it was straightened out. They all said that but no one ever called. So I finally get a email that my order shipped! I look at it and it's for one bag of dry food. No liver care food or her bag of treats. OMG! So yes, I call again. I am informed that this is all they are sending me free. So after all their continuous screw ups, they finally secure the scripts then refuse to keep their word. I GAVE them the name of the manager who closed out the order and told me it was being comped. The guy was really snotty with me.

    This is by far one of the most outrageous situations I've ever dealt with from any company. Worst part is for them, my dog is followed on social media by thousands and has a reach of over 10 thousand per week. They stand to lose a lot more than if they had simply kept their word and honored their solution to the level of multiple and repeated incompetence I was subjected to. I had planned to buy it or I would not of ordered it. But after all that BS, I accepted their offer to comp my order as I felt it was the very least they could do. My uncle is loaded and has a large property in PA. They have over 30 cats living on their property each and every one gets vet care and has been neutered or spayed. They WERE getting large orders from Chewy each month. WERE. I plan to post this review EVERYWHERE that reviews companies. My followers will also be advised to avoid this company.

    Started the process to order Heartworm preventative July 19. Pharmacy called vet after closing at 5 PM, phones forwarded to the Emergency Clinic, who said I was not a regular client. Talked with the vet and two techs at the vet clinic, said no problem. Will certify for sale. Advised Chewy to call the clinic when it is open. Chewy was declined because only one of the two dogs was blood tested for worms. Two Chewy techs said they had fixed the problem, and didn't.

    Changed the order to the one blood tested dog. Waited, not sent, this was because Chewy said they could only hold the credit card for 48 hours so order canceled. I canceled and reordered, told by the Chewy tech that approval was already on file, and should have med for one dog in three days, Tuesday. Call Chewy again because no notice of order sent, and was told there was no info for vet on file with this most recent order, (same vet for all prior orders) and no approval on file for the same dog that supposedly had approval on record on Friday (now it is Monday). Chewy pharmacy said they only had an order on file for the one dog that was denied initially July 19, nothing for the approved dog. July 19 until August ten, no progress. Not worth the effort.

    The day my husband and I had to put our beloved 18-year-old cat, Magellan, to sleep, we returned home, tear-stained and sniffling, to discover a huge box of his prescription food from Chewy sitting on our front porch. About $250 worth. The following day, I pulled myself together to call Chewy.com and find out if I could return the food. Not only was customer service representative empathetic, caring and helpful, she issued me a full return on the entire shipment, plus an additional return for a bag of food that we hadn't opened yet. When I asked how I should return everything to them, the customer service agent said that I could keep it all.

    Keep in mind that this happened as the COVID pandemic was first peaking, so not having to go to the post office to mail large, heavy boxes was a relief. Even better, when I said I would like to donate the food, they encouraged me to do so. They literally donated $300 dollars of expensive prescription cat food to us and we passed it on, along with dozens of unopened cans for which we hadn't requested a refund, to the Pinellas Humane Society. The total donation was about $500 of both dry and canned food, and Chewy.com made most of that possible.

    If this didn't sell you on ordering your pet products through Chewy.com, this will. A few days after Magellan's death, the Chewy's customer service representative sent us an incredible bouquet of flowers because of our tragic loss. I was without words and that doesn't occur often. I'd only recently begun ordering from Chewy.com, but now I'm a customer for life. The best part is that Chewy.com's prices are better than any of the big name pet stores I've visited, and they really do treat their clients like family. Thank you, Chewy.com.

That was so nice..So I ordered food he would eat..I'm sorry unless I get another friend I won't be ordering any more. But I still will pass on great customer service and great prices their way...Jeanette

I had ordered a prescription for her and when the company contacted my vet for authorization they were informed that Laci had passed away. This afternoon I received flowers and a beautiful sympathy card from Chewy. What an awesome thing to do. I have always loved ordering from Chewy but this time they really went above and beyond.

    Chewy is a great pet food company with great pet food and prices, and they deliver to your door. We love Chewy and have purchased prescription cat food for our cat for years. When Leo died recently I sent an email to Chewy to cancel the automatic order. Trish’s (Service Dept) response was very kind and compassionate, and she definitely went above and beyond ordinary customer service. But that was not all, the following day I received a delivery of beautiful flowers from Chewy, which was a total surprise and this has never happened to me before! Chewy deserves even more than 5 stars! And we definitely will be ordering from them again when we get another pet. I already told all my family and friends and want to spread the word about the wonderful people working at Chewy Service Department.

    I have been ordering from Chewy.com for about 2 years. Their service has always been super fast and accurate. Once I received a shipment and the bag of food was busted open, they replaced it the very next day! During the pandemic, service got very slow so I stopped my auto ship and opted to purchase in person to get my food quicker (yes, I wait until the last minute and kitties are hungry!). But I tried again last week (end of July 2020) and service was back at it's super fast pace. I ordered a ton of food Saturday at 9:30 pm and it was delivered by 8:00 am on Sunday the next day!

    I've been a loyal shopper with Chewy for several years (since before PetSmart bought them). Today I went to order shampoo for our 2 Border Collies. I was STUNNED to see that a 64oz bottle of dog shampoo would be $45.36. I did a quick web query and was equally shocked to find it from the manufacturer and 3 other resellers for $16.00 a bottle less. Of course I pinged their online help and asked if they price matched. "NOPE.. we don't do that they replied... anything else I can help you with??"

    Buyer beware. This is simply theft. I get capitalism, but the uninformed buyer should not become the victim...

    After years of getting dog food from Chewy, our dog needs a prescription med so we ordered it from chewy. They require written confirmation of the script from the vet and the vet emailed it to chewy with a copy to me. My cc of the email shows it was sent and to the correct address. Because our dog needs the med right away, when I got the emailed copy of the script, I contacted chewy to confirm their receipt. Customer service told me they couldn’t confirm and that someone from pharmacy had to and I’d get a callback.

    Three days later after no word, I call again and now they tell me they don’t have the email/script and their ONLY solution is to rerequest it from the vet who won’t respond instantly and who knows how much longer this whole process will take? I’m ending my relationship with chewy. The supervisor said I’d get a cancellation confirmation email shortly. Not only have I not gotten confirmation of the cancellation, I checked the website and my order still shows as pending. Chewy used to be good.

    For years I have been getting one of my furry kids (a small cat) her medicine from Chewy. It is not as expensive in Chewy as it was from the vet. But the vet said to use Chewy. I was extremely glad to use them.... until now. Recently I got an email saying that there is a possibility they will go out of stock for medicine. That did not bother me much. I responded saying that it was okay, I understand because of the virus how bad things are. And I told them when they notified me that they were out of stock, I would get it from the vet.

    BUT!! They sent me an email saying they would not notify me (or anyone) if they were out of stock, but only when they were back in stock. People who get the medicine from them could lose their pet if they are not notified it was not in stock allowing people to find somewhere else to get the medicine from in time to give it to the pet when they need it. To me this is cruel.

    I have been a customer of Chewy.com for many years now. They started off excellent and kept strong for a while. For the past year and especially recently they have declined from 4 stars to zero (0). The reason being is that most of the essential inventory items a pet owner needs to keep their pets healthy, such as food, vitamins, health and wellness products, prescriptions, etc. are always always out of stock. They do not have a clue on inventory management or inventory control. They let food products and vitamin products go down to a zero quantity level before, if at all, they replenish or restock their inventory. Then it takes months before they come back into inventory. This leaves the customer waiting and waiting and waiting and calling for weeks on end for essential items that are necessary to keep their beloved pets healthy.

    Chewy has no understanding or conception of keeping a safety stock level of products on hand. When it starts getting down to that level, that is when they should start the process of reordering their inventory, not after a long while of it being zero quantity. They have no clue or concept of supplies or inventory. It is often said that when a company starts getting big, that their quality, integrity, responsibility, and reliability to the consumer go out the window, they just do not care anymore, and that is the story of chewy.com. As the owner of three dogs, my dogs would be dead if I left it to the devices of chewy also with chewy's lack of supply and inventory management or inventory control. Chewy.com is horrific, abysmal, appalling and dreadful. I would gladly pay four times as much for each item from a company that values a customer's business and the needs of their pets.

    I have been ordering from Chewy.com for nearly a year for our dog Foster and have always been pleased. This past Saturday on July 4, it was apparent he was not well. He was old and had been diagnosed with Liver cancer as well as suffering from arthritis. We knew this day was close but still were absolutely heartbroken to realize the only loving and compassionate thing was to let him go so we did. He was tired and I truly believe he was gone before the final injection. We miss him more than I can even begin to put into words.

    I had received an order of prescription dog food from Chewy.com the day before and had not opened the packaging yet. My order had been a bit over $80.00 so I was hoping I could return it. Chewy.com said not to worry about returning the food and refunded not only that order but also the previous order from June!! I was stunned when I saw my banking the next day. I told Natalia at Chewy that I would donate the food to a shelter and found a rescue group that is also an old dog sanctuary that I will be donating the food to as well as various items of our sweet Foster. I was so impressed and had posted this experience to Facebook and had several friends mention that they were going to start ordering from Chewy after hearing about my experience.

    That went beyond my expectations. Well today a beautiful bouquet of sunflowers and a sweet sympathy card arrived and my husband and I were absolutely stunned at the thoughtfulness and compassion of Natalia and Chewy.com. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have loved each of them but there was something a bit more special about Foster. Maybe because I am older and was able to spend more time with him but we adored that dog and this has been a tough week for us. I again went on Facebook and sang my praises for this wonderful company that went beyond what I ever could have expected. I cannot imagine buying my pets food and supplies anywhere else. I am forever touched and grateful. As long as I have pets (we also have 3 rescue kitties) I will be a customer. Chewy.com is the best!!!

    I'm a bit shocked at some of the reviews I see here, but most of them pertain to prescriptions so maybe it's an issue with that specific department. I've had nothing but great experiences with this company, but my experiences were solely with ordering and receiving pet supplies (wet and dry cat food, cat litter, litter supplies). I've been using Chewy since last year, and I was very happy with their shipping services and auto-ship. I usually received my orders on the day promised, every once in a while a day later. Not a huge deal - I plan around that and always make sure I keep a couple extra cans of food on hand for delays.

    Once the pandemic hit, Chewy was (understandably) overwhelmed by the influx of people looking to order as many supplies as they could online. This caused my normal auto-ship to be severely delayed. After about 2 weeks of no movement on my auto-ship, I decided it would better to just stock up on food at the grocery store. I emailed Chewy to ask that they cancel my pending auto-ship since I was unable to do so through the website.

    It just so happens that the day a representative responded was the same day my order finally shipped. Since the rep couldn't stop it, they said they would refund me anyway and I was either welcome to keep it, or donate it to a local animal shelter if it wasn't needed. I was pleasantly surprised, and it was a wonderful gesture.

    I stopped any future auto-ships once it was clear that the pandemic wasn't going to be resolved anytime soon, and it was just easier to stock up every other week when I went to get human groceries. However, now that things are semi-normalizing, I decided to try auto-ship again. I placed an order at 11:27am yesterday. It was at my front door my 11:02am this morning. 24-hour turn around time - amazing! Great company, great people. Give them a try - you won't be sorry!

In addition, I have tried numerous times to leave reviews lately, and their system gives me an "oops" error message (maybe because my review is not a 5-star one?). Also, when they pack shipments, they don't understand that a 50-lb box is not manageable because FedEx doesn't drop it off at the door but leaves on the stairs. I have a bad back, and need to drag this box all the way inside my house.

    After one month of using Chewy, here is why I'm opting to buy the same medication for $40 more from 1-800-Petmeds. My dog needs critical medication. I placed an order for rush delivery (May 1st). I get an email saying it will ship once they verify the prescription. Neat. A week goes by with 0 communication. I call the vet to see what the hold up is; they hadn't heard anything from Chewy. I called Chewy, and they said they couldn't contact the vet, and asked me for their info. A full week of silence for that. It took 10 days to get a critical medication (May 11th). I decide that if this is how it's going to be, I need to stock up. I place another order two weeks in advance next time (June 5th).

    After a week (June 11th), it's lost in transit via USPS. While I normally wouldn't blame a shipper, the CS Rep told me verbatim, "huh,that's weird, we usually ship FedEx, I don't know why this went USPS". So, they put in a replacement order (June 12th) and put rush shipping on via FedEx. Neat....except...the medicine never shows. Instead, on June 15th, that replacement order is cancelled, and a new order is placed. No one I talked to could tell me why.

    When I described my experience to the supervisor, he gave no concern whatsoever. I asked him to cancel every bit of business I had there (pending orders, autoship, etc) he goes, "ok, anything else you want?" Nah dude, I'm good....except, as I sit here, I still see pending orders, and that my autoship is still subscribed. Chewy has been such a bad experience that I'm going to pay $40 more just to have some competence elsewhere. If you don't mind waiting weeks for nothing to happen, then Chewy is the place to be.

    I've been a customer of Chewy for years with no bad experiences. But recently I placed an order that never arrived. I have no mail box, so I use a PO box. For Chewy orders I put my physical address on one line and my PO box on another. Turns out Chewy now insists that it will not ship to a PO box. Seems okay, since they have my physical address, too, but no! I can't receive my Chewy order at all.

    Chewy's warehouses are now all shipping with carriers like FedEx, so for items coming from a Chewy warehouse, a physical address works. BUT if your order is shipping from a manufacturer, and the manufacturer uses USPS, then you will not receive your package if you have a PO box because Chewy has taken it upon themselves to remove any PO Box information you put on your delivery address. Your physical address remains, but no PO Box info. When a manufacturer sends your order by USPS, which many do, the package cannot be delivered because the PO box information has been removed by Chewy.

    I went around and around with my last order from Chewy, including having my order shipped again. I never received it, and more than one supervisor at Chewy has informed me that I cannot ever receive it. I can't help the fact that I don't have a mailbox, but now Chewy packages that come from a manufacturer and not the warehouse cannot be delivered.

    This seems like a very easy thing to fix. Chewy should just leave your address the way you put it in and not delete anything. But there is no way to get the message to Chewy. Customer Service has nothing to do with shipping policies, and there is no way to reach anyone else. Looks like Amazon will be getting my orders from now on. So long, Chewy.

Their CS policies and training are fantastic.

Jessica B. answered my email within the hour and said that they would credit my card for the food BUT... she did not even ask for me to have to hassle with the post office to send it back, she told me to go ahead and donate it to a shelter/rescue!!! This is the most awesome thing to me!!! I live right by an animal shelter so that is where I will take this healthy food. Thanks Chewy!

    I have had an auto-ship order for dog food for a couple of months. Two months ago, my order arrived well short of what was supposed to be included, with no warning or note of explanation. This last month my order didn't arrive on time. After several days, I called Chewy's customer service, and after a 25 minute wait, listening to obnoxious "music" and a voice telling me every 60 seconds how important my call was, I was told that my order was being shipped the next day. Two days later I attempted to trace the shipment - it had not been shipped.

    I called again, and after a similar wait, I was again told that it would ship the next day as missing items had just arrived. It did not ship the next day, nor any day after that. A week later, unwilling to waste more of my time, I sent Chewy a direct message on Twitter, which was answered with the information that my order was being held because it was incomplete. This was three weeks after the expected arrival date. I canceled the order. I can understand any company having problems with filling orders during this pandemic, but to lie to me twice about it, failing to inform me of difficulties they were having, is simply unacceptable. I won't be using them again for anything.

Our beloved Recon recently passed away and my wife called to have him taken from the list and ask he not receive another birthday card to open the wounds of loss.

    Waiting for Federal Express to pick up 2 boxes of food (50 pounds and 17 pounds) that were left on and in the street instead of being delivered up my driveway to the front door. Chewy advertises front door delivery and the labels are marked front door. A previous delivery was stolen because of being left in the street. Each time I call, the representative says I will hear back from a supervisor after they speak the Federal Express. I’ve never received a call. Now they can pay to have it shipped back and restocked. When it gets costly, maybe they’ll revise their policy and actually contact Federal Express. I will no longer purchase from them. A $1000+ a year customer is apparently not worth it to them.

    I have always used Chewy for my pet food and supplies. Great company and great customer service. Decided to try the pharmacy, although I have great luck with 1-800-petmeds.com, due to the 20% coupon. I mailed my script to the address listed. I got an email saying it was approved and ready to go, please place your order (which was already placed). Few days later, I got an email saying they never got the script. I waited for them to get their act together and called them a bit later. No they don't have the script. (Now my dog is out of her medication). They say "we'll wait till it (the script) shows up. You live in N, and that is far from Kentucky, during this Covid situation". I say I have ordered and received other meds from PETMEDs and they are in Florida which is further than Kentucky.

    "Can I fax you a copy of my original order to prove I have the prescription?" "No, it's against the law." "Well I didn't lose it and how am I going to find it? And who is this pharmacy tech that sent me my email that you got it?" We don't know, but wait and we will send the med when the script finally shows up." "But my dog needs it now, she is limping and I mailed it 5/11." So I cancelled the order, and got another script from my vet and will send to 1-800-PETMEDs who are completely with the program. Great customer service and never had a problem. Chewy is usually great, wait, give it time. The pharmacy might get better, just not now. Incidentally, I used them because of the 20% coupon, but it only allowed up to $30, so it wasn't even 30% off.

    I had an account with a regular delivery of food; I ran out of my dogs flea and tick med and went to Chewy's site to find a product to buy. I called to find out if I could get this product with my next automatic ship of dog food but was clear I did not want this product to come again and again with my autoships, and she told me, "Yes, no problem." We spent 10-15 minutes on the phone getting all order together, then at the end she tells me that I would have to call before my next autoship to cancel off the flea and tick med. It was like, "What? Huh? We talked about this." I ended up canceling that flea and tick order and told her I would just order that one item online from them and be done with it. So I went online and ordered it; I get an email from them that they need my vet's info because the item needed to get a prescription for it, no problem.

    A couple of days later I get a call form my vet's office telling me they can't fill this prescription because I had already gotten that type of product from them, which I had not; the flea and tick product I ordered that company that make it, also makes a heartworm med by the same name, and the idiots at Chewy when they called my vet's office, they did not specify flea and tick, so I ended up canceling all my business with chewy due to someone's incompetence.

    I was trying to order my cats prescription food online. Due to the COVID-19 am unable to go outside and I thought it would be a good idea to use Chewy because I’ve heard such great things about them but in fact when I placed an order advised me to take a photo of my prescription card making sure it’s updated so my order can be processed faster. Unfortunately the doctor that was assisting my order online wasn’t able to use my prescription card as they stated they would and it was up-to-date. They told me that they called my cats hospital and put some sort of reason they couldn’t find his name on file which I find strange because that’s the only hospital he ever got Cena and due to the COVID-19 I don’t believe there’s anyone really working in certain hospitals so they had to put my order on hold knowing my cat needs this food.

    I was extremely disappointed that my order was put on hold. I had to call them and get my money refunded back to my credit card because chewy.com is inaccurate when they tell you, "Just upload your prescription card and we’ll send out your order sooner"! That’s ** okay because I got an email saying my order is put on hold and my cat has a diagnosis and needs his food ASAP!

    Chewy disappointed me completely. Regardless just know there’s always a bigger process when you have to order with chewy online through their doctors. It’s never just that easy when you get to upload your prescription card. Now they had to call him verify with the doctors just to make sure and if the doctors not to be found or not around they placed your order on hold which I find that very unprofessional because now I have to do the dirty work and going to the actual store in which I didn’t want to due to COVID-19. Very disappointing. Never gonna order from them again! That’s a fact. Thank god I am a good mommy and think ahead of the game making sure he gets his food on time. If you leave it up to chewy it’s whatever suits them not the customer!

Every year on my cat's birthday or mine they send me a card as well as for Christmas.

    I am very disappointed with Chewy right now. I ordered my auto-ship for the month on April 10th, earlier than scheduled because my pup was running low on supplies and was also set to have surgery the following week. I added several items that I felt would make him more comfortable during his recovery week, cause you know, having surgery on your neck is never easy. Well it's now April 14th and my items haven't even left the warehouse yet.

    I understand that because of the COVID-19 pandemic that pet parents have been stock piling which has probably increased the volume of orders for them, but this is ridiculous. I waited till I was three days in to email them because I wanted to give them some time to fill the order. I get some robotic response like an hour later that basically parrots everything I wrote in my email with no real response or assurance to my concerns. Fast forward to the next day, still hasn't shipped out yet. I email again, get the same robotic response even though this time I'd made sure to highlight the reasons why I needed my items sooner than later at this point.

    I've been using Chewy since I adopted my pup in late August of last year. Except for one item, their shipping has never happened for me in 1-2 days. More like 3-4 days on a daily basis, but that never bothered me too much as long as I got what I needed on time. This is the fifth day I'm stuck waiting for my items to ship and my pup, Dakota, goes into surgery tomorrow morning.

They never shipped out the medicine and they never contacted me. I understand that we are in a pandemic. And if they are out of the medicine, that is fine. I will pursue other options. But do not tell me it will be shipped out and then not ship it out and not follow up to tell me. It is heart medicine. My dog needs it each day to stay alive.

Then, in a effort to resolve this I asked if there was a phone number with extension so that once I got the bank on the line they could then call straight in, also refused. Latonya couldn't have cared less that I incurred overdraft fees due to a Chewy error in double charging me. However, reading other reviews, it looks like Chewy is deliberately doing this! What?

    We have spent several thousand dollars with Chewy over the past several years, but after my last order I will never make another purchase from Chewy again and sadly will be filing a federal complaint. Like another reviewer mentioned last month, Chewy has started charging and debiting WAY MORE MONEY than what I spend for an order from my bank account - and not just a small amount, more like $200, for no apparent reason. However, our representative (after a 45 minute wait time) did not explain it as a warehouse thing like the other review. She said that they place an initial money hold of the total amount (which, in my case for this past order, $201), and then as the items ship from the different warehouses, they then start charging your card additionally for the items as they ship even AFTER placing a hold for the total amount. After your items have been delivered, they finally credit the initial hold back to your bank. This is NOT OKAY.

    As of right now, my card has been charged over $390 for this same $201 order that I placed on Wednesday, April 1 (today is April 8 and the hold still has not been released). The Chewy rep actually said “I know it’s like so unprofessional of Chewy to do this, but we’ve always done it like this”. NO THEY HAVEN’T (they have always shipped from different warehouses, yes, but this initial hold with extra debits has never been noted in practice). If you dare to place an order with Chewy.com, make sure you have double the amount of your order available for them, and keep a VERY close eye on your payment source. Stay on them for your money back if this happens to you. THE OLD CHEWY IS GONE. They are seemingly stealing people’s money right in the middle of a global pandemic when we need it the most. This is the message that I wrote them:

    I will never shop with Chewy again :( Very disappointed in the overcharging on my debit card. Placing a bank hold on the total amount and then making additional charges seems unethical for a company to do. I cannot trust a company that knows they could be overdrawing bank accounts and incurring overdraft fees on behalf of their customers during a PANDEMIC, and will not change this policy. Unacceptable and disgusting. Handwritten notes and flowers are all sweet and dandy until your money starts getting SNATCHED UP.

    Had an aquarium pump die for my reef aquarium. Ordered from Chewy because I know there's a warehouse in our area and most people have told me their items come within a day or two. Seven days later my pump still didn't even ship, I had no contact from chewy saying there was an issue, or it was out of stock etc. Mean while my animals are dying off one at a time. I tried calling chewy but after an hour on hold I hung up. I sent an email explaining the situation but received no response. The next day I magically received notification my pump was shipped and would be delivered in one day. Worst customer service ever, lost about $1,000 worth of fish, coral, inverts waiting for their horrible service. The only plus is that they did finally send the pump so hopefully my losses will stop there.

    I just need to give them a 5 star rating! Last week we placed our very 1st Chewy order ever. Due to the recent issues surrounding Covid 19, understandably their delivery times are very long. I went on to try and cancel earlier in the week as we had to go to a local retailer to get the food. The cancellation didn't go through in time and I received my order today. I emailed to return the dog food as we went with another brand.

    I let them know we were keeping the treats, they emailed me to say I was getting a full refund and to give the food to a charity. This is AMAZING!! This is the BEST customer service I have seen in years!!! I will be dropping the food today to our SPCA and and overjoyed! I will definitely use and recommend Chewy.com to anyone. Thank goodness they also carry the brand of food we went with so I can continue to use them. So great to see in these hard times!! Thank you Chewy!!

    Chewy is incredible! I Purchased an order from Chewy but before I received it unfortunately my fur baby had to be put down. I called chewy to let them know that she had been put down and asked if I could send the box back to them, if I was eligible for a refund. They asked me to donate the goods, if I thought that they were donatable and they would give me a full refund which they did very quickly I might add. Then today much to my surprise, I received a dozen long stem mixed colored roses from Chewy, telling me they are so sorry for my loss and that I they are there for me, if I need them in the future. Even if I need someone just to talk to and talk through my grief. Chewy is truly an exceptional company and they will be getting ALL my business from now on.

    Shame on you Chewy!!!! They are not being honest. You should not be on this business, you have zero empathy and everyone is so dishonest. I have a dog with heart condition, I ordered his medicine a week ago. Still have not been shipped. If they told me the truth, maybe I would not be so upset. First they told me that they were waiting for my clinic's approval. Even my clinic sent couple of faxes and emails (I was cc’ed too), they were keep telling me that they did not receive it.

    Finally they got it after 7 days. Now they do not know when the item will be shipped. They do not give me a time frame. I have sent so many emails, even social media messages to get attention. Nothing worked. To speak with someone, you need to hold min 45 minutes. Then do not get surprised if you get disconnected in the middle of your conversation. Of course, nobody will call you back. As a pet owner, I would recommend you to order from other online companies whose policies are more transparent and genuinely care about our loved ones. They do not care!!!! Shame on you Chewy!

    I have been emailing them everyday and everyday they tell me more 7-10 days to get the dog food. They continue to keep adding more days. The shipment is "still preparing". No one will answer my question. This is the only thing they tell me. My dogs run out of food tomorrow and I dont get paid until two more weeks. I feel they are ripping me off. At this point I dont know what to do. I trusted them to deliver my food. I told them my concern and they only add more days of waiting. I feel as if they dont care about my situation.
