Chewy has a great selection of supplies with competitive prices and free delivery. They make shopping for daily needed supplies easy and subscriptions make a day and night difference, so I never ran out of the food or medicine I need for my dogs and a cat!

I couldn't be more impressed with Chewy. I've used their auto ship feature for years and it's so convenient. On just one occasion they accidentally mailed me the wrong flavor of cat food. Their customer service is fantastic. The correct flavor showed up at my house less than 24 hours later. They said I could donate the first shipment to a local animal shelter. My cat of 17 years recently passed away so I canceled my auto ship order and gave his death as the reason for canceling. Less than a week later I came home to a beautiful vase with flowers and a sympathy card on my front porch. This is just the best company!

I’m so upset. I know I canceled my auto-ship but I still got charged 101 something and on top of that the stuff came ruin, it’s all wet and soggy. The box is damaged. I wish I get my money back but that ain’t going to happen. I never had a problem getting my money back from Chewy until now and that was in the order was 3 a bag of dog food that got ruined and a bottle of dog shampoo that leak out everywhere and a dog Matt bed that is all messed up with the dog shampoo and the rain and if you guys want this back.

This is the second time I’ve ordered food from Chewy.com and this is the second time the freshness date on the dog food is about to expire or has already expired. I’m assuming this is why they sell dog food so cheap? I’m very disappointed in this company.

A truly first class company with such heartfelt compassion that we appreciated more than one could ever imagine, let alone one would expect from a company selling any product or service. After hearing of the the loss of our beloved dog on the very day of his sudden and painful passing from a rare and aggressive form of cancer, we received a case of the expensive prescription food we had ordered per our veterinarian, Chewy.com refunded our money without any hesitation. But more surprisingly and importantly was that we received a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a very personal kind note from them the very next day. It brought tears of grateful appreciation from us at a time of grieving.

They provide extremely quick shipping, great prices and if you have any problems or concerns, they are on it immediately! I have never had a bad experience with them ever! 5 stars all the way! I live in an area where we don't have any local pet stores, only a tractor supply or Walmart. Rather than overpay or settle for something other than what I want, I can have anything I need within a couple days right at my doorstep with Free shipping if my order is over $49.00.

Chewy is fantastic! Always willing to refund without the hassle of returning the item. Which allows for you to donate it instead of it going to waste. They also commissioned a hand painted portrait of my dog and sent it to me as a surprise. What company does that nowadays?

I am writing this review because I do not want other people to experience the same thing I have over the past week. I placed a rather large order from Chewy.com for $133.89. But, since one of my items had to be shipped from another warehouse I was charged $125.24 & 8.65 separately. Those two charges ($125.24 & $8.65) were authorized on my debit card. But the $133.89 is still a pending charge on my debit card and it has been for 7 DAYS now. Pending charges still don't allow you to access your funds, so I have been out an additional $133.89 since I placed my order at Chewy.com.
The customer service is rude and disrespectful and just completely disregarded how this has inconvenienced me in any way shape or form. They continue to place blame on my bank (it's not my bank's fault), clearly the blame lies with the Merchant. I refuse to order from this site ever again because all they have done is wasted 2+ hours of my time (on the phone with Chewy.com & my bank), double-charged me, and failed to compensate me for the inconvenience. Save yourself the headache and don't order from here.

When you have an issue or a question, you can call a service representative and get expert help and advice. Orders are delivered quickly and the prices are reasonable. My pet needed a change in prescription diet. I still had two cases of his previous canned food left. They told me to donate it to the humane society rather than returning it to Chewy, and they gave me a full credit. It's great dealing with a company like that.

I know many order pet food from Chewy. I’m not ready to take that step yet for my dog since he has allergies and can have issues with different brands. I do however have an almost 22 year old cat that has dementia at certain times. I was in dire need of potty training pads. I needed the larger ones and ones that are absorbent. I’ve tried a few local and through Amazon. I need good quality in bulk for an affordable price. After all. I’m not training and soon to be done with these. I’m using these daily for the remainder of my cat’s life.
I found the best quality, best quantity and best price on chewy. They said two day shipping and when I was worried it wouldn’t arrive in the time frame specified. After talking to an online agent. They were quick to help me out. Turns out they were indeed arriving that day. I feel very comfortable now ordering more items through chewy due to their customer service. Shipping speed, quality and price of their items. They won’t let you down and strive to do their best as well as provide you the best product at a great, reasonable price. The pee pads from chewy cost less than the ones you can get at any local store. Plus you get double the amount for less on chewy. Very pleased with this company

I LOVE Chewy.com. My cat had to have a prescription-only cat food due to a thyroid issue. Chewy had a good price, and shipped it so that I received it the very next day. My cat passed away a year or so later, and the staff at Chewy.com sent a very sweet and thoughtful sympathy note. I have also been very impressed with the customer service. I once ordered the wrong food for the family cockatiel; the customer service rep replaced it with the correct item at no extra charge, and suggested that I donate the item that I had mistakenly ordered to a local shelter. This company shows great compassion -- they clearly love animals, and they treat us humans awfully well too.

My dog was having some skin issues so I was looking to change food. I read the reviews and ordered it based on reviews. It happened to be on a Bogo sale item so I had 100 lbs of feed.

I thought at most I would get a credit for the unopened bag of dog food which would mostly get absorbed by shipping it back. To my surprise, they told me to donate it all and credited me for the whole order. I was so shocked. I appreciated it, you just don't get that type of service anymore.

I buy a LOT of cat food - my Chewy orders are over $100 each week and I've been buying from them for a few years now so I wanted to leave a general review (not product specific) and alert people to their excellent customer service. I have auto-ship for myself and my elderly neighbor across the street (2 separate auto-ships set up which is nice) and about a year ago we were having issues with damaged shipments. All it took every time was a call to Chewy customer service and the problem was fixed. They would send out replacement cases for the damaged packages with no hassle at all. I would have gladly sent a picture to prove what I was referring to but they never asked. That problem seems to be handled as we have not received any damaged in quite some time.
But they also will send you replacements if there is something wrong with the food otherwise. Case in point, one of the varieties I have bought for years now is Fancy Feast Chunky Chicken (pate). Never a problem...until recently I ordered 3 cases along with other foods, and all 3 cases had a different texture to the food (like a mousse & chunks rather than pate ground & chunks). Cats were turned off but I've sprinkled FortiFlora on it or put a few treats on top and they'll eat it. I phoned the manufacturer who assured me they have not changed their formula, and there had been no issues, so then I felt better and understand maybe something went wrong in the mixing with my batch...
So I called Chewy and explained the issue, the CSR took down all the information I gave her about the consistency of the food, and I offered to provide her the date, time, and name of the lady I'd talked with at Purina, however she said, "no that's alright", and she was sending me out replacement cases for my previous order.
Unbelievably excellent customer service, every time I have to call them. They are wonderful and you get your orders super-fast normally by the next day or at least the day after that. Amazing to say the least. I used to go to Petco all the time or PetSmart, and now I get to have it delivered to my home, anytime I want, and it is SO convenient. I think many people do not call them if there is an issue, and then they just complain and give them bad reviews both on their site and elsewhere, which is unfair. Give them a call so they can help and make it right. I give them a 5-star rating!!!

I started shopping at Chewy.com so I could refill my dog prescription. It was delivered fast and the price was half of what I originally paid. I’ve also purchased top of the line dog foods and treats. They have better prices than I can get at a pet store in my area. I also noticed for someone who can not afford the most expensive dog foods they also offer less expensive choices. If you want to automatically buy food you can get it at a cheaper price. I'm very happy and have told a few people already. Why carry heavy bags of dog food or kitty liter when you can have it delivered fast to your front door.

My pup and I LOVE Chewy! He goes crazy with excitement whenever a Chewy box arrives at our door. I love the fast hassle free shipping because I can't physically carry big bags of dog food up the stairs to my apartment. Chewy has competitive prices, daily deals, and a great selection of anything you might need for your pet. Food, toys, medicine, training and cleaning supplies; they have it all. There are a few very specific products I need for my dog (he's a service dog in training) that Chewy doesn't carry, or that I've been able to find cheaper from other stores, but almost everything he owns came from Chewy.
I especially love their amazing customer service. Any time I've had an issue with a product, no matter the reason, I've been able to call and speak to a real, friendly person right away. They have always resolved the problem, either by immediately sending a replacement free of charge or by issuing a refund, no return shipping necessary. If the product in question is still usable, I can donate it to an animal charity. Chewy even sends my pup birthday and holiday cards! :-)

I placed a rather large order I do every month, for my animals. I have no issue with ordering dry goods. If the order is placed by 9am it arrives at my door next day. Different story with the pharmacy, My dog is diabetic so he is on insulin. I thought I would try to order from Chewy. After 4 days the insulin is still stating "preparing for shipment". So I contact customer service and they tell me it was approved by my Vet clinic. It should ship out in the next couple of days, I told them that was acceptable, and "I will call you back." I call my Vet clinic and ask them when did they approved the script with chewy, they told me the 4 days ago. I call chewy back and explain again with the exception of what my Vet Clinic told me, now she tells me that the vet clinic approved it today and it will ship now in the next 3 days. Which would be a Sunday at the latest, so who is lying. My Vet Clinic or Chewy?
I explain to her I just got off the phone with my Vet and they approved it 4 days ago. I never got a response back. Then she tells me that the pharmacy items are shipped out of different state that is the reason for the delay in shipping, I believe they are using a second party vendor and once the order is transferred, no telling how long it will take. So with my experience I wouldn't use the pharmacy department with Chewy. A $7.00 savings is not worth it.

Chewy is biased towards dogs and their target audience is dog owners. They don’t tailor their email responses to their audience. They assume everyone is a dog owner/lover, using boilerplate language like “give us a bark if you need anything else” and “have a tail wagging great day” even if you contact them regarding a cat product.
They have numerous tv commercials, almost entirely of dogs. In the rare occurrence there is a cat, it’s in the background, hardly noticeable. In one commercial, a spokeswoman talks about not having to lug heavy cat litter from the store, yet there isn’t a single cat in the commercial—only dogs! I contacted their corporate office and told them given cats outnumber dogs in pet ownership, I would think they would want to target cat owners as well, but instead they project themselves as being biased towards dogs by excluding cats from their commercials. The fact they never responded is very telling.
They are selective in which negative reviews they post. They only post negative reviews that are inane (ex. product stinks, pet didn’t like it). They wouldn’t post my review which provided constructive criticism and scientific evidence—product caused diarrhea and vomiting even after ruling out other possible causes—because they didn’t want it to impact their bottom line—sales. There are plenty of pet retailers who love cats and who appreciate the business and feedback of their owners. And Petco and Entirely Pets will match other retailers’ prices.

First let me say for several years I thought Chewy.com set the bar on pricing and Customer Service. Perhaps the sale to PetSmart initiated changes. Perhaps Chewy.com believes Customers will stay for price only. Chewy.com only can answer why service and support has declined.
*Boxes are too heavy to lift and require removing items individually to bring inside.
*Carriers consistently damage packaging during shipment and retape/repack boxes.
* Items are often open and/or damaged particularly when shipments include litter.
*Items in boxes are unsecured and unprotected.
Chewy advised their shipping policy is up to 60 lb per box. I was advised to split orders to reduce weight. So I did. What happened next was that Chewy held both orders because they felt they may have been made in error. When I checked on orders I was informed they had been cancelled. I have returned to shopping in store at PetSmart / Petco and order prescription food through Chewy's repeat delivery discounted price. Maybe one day Chewy.com will return to doing business the way they did in the beginning when customers mattered. Thank you.

I am a young adult, therefore it is rare I go to companies for specific customer service, rather just to get something. It's pleasant when I receive good customer service but for the most part if I need something it doesn't matter how I get it. I am the proud owner of my very first dog (by myself, the other dogs were family dogs) and I was nervous about giving her everything she deserves. My parents have always raved about getting stuff online at Chewy, but I genuinely despise ordering/shopping online for anything because I can't see it or touch it before purchasing and it takes so long to get to me - I have a thing for instant gratification. My doberman pinscher rottweiler has a very sensitive digestive system so I needed to order special food for her, so I went to chewy's website so I could get a discount on autoship. After creating a portal I put in all of my girl's info like birthdate and even a picture of her.
Any time I called chewy I was greeted by the most friendly, positive, upbeat and authentic people I have ever been on the phone with, and it seriously made the rest of my day better. After a while I canceled the autoship so I no longer went to the website, however a few months ago was my birthday. I received something in the mail from chewy and I was confused because I didn't order anything, and all of my close loved ones swore they didn't order me/my dog anything for my birthday. I open it up and it is the most beautiful and realistic hand painted portrait of my dog and a sweet handwritten card saying that the chewy family hopes I enjoy the painting and have a good birthday.
I am not being dramatic here - I was in tears. This was such a small thing that such a large company did not need to do but they went out of their way for one single customer. It wasn't a discount or a free toy or some computer generated message. They put in time, effort and money for me. I was shook and elated. I framed it and put it on my wall, and I will keep it forever.
Fast forward and now it's my dog's birthday this Sunday. I checked my mailbox and sure enough chewy had handwritten a card for her saying happy birthday. These little things are just so big to me and are so special. I have never experienced a company like this one. Y'all are too good. When shopping or needing something for a pet, so dear to our hearts and families, it is crucial to get the right stuff and the best stuff. Like I said at the beginning of what is now a short essay, if you need something, it doesn't matter how a company behaves (for the most part) you will get it. So having chewy make buying things for our fur babies pleasant, easy and fun is monumental. Thank you so much chewy. I will always support and shop with you.

I've been ordering my dog's Rx dogfood from Chewy.com since 8/2019. Every two weeks my order is over $80.00. The food is packaged in cans and over half of the cans are severely dented. If the food was bad I would know when I opened it, but I shouldn't have to worry about it for the price I pay. Ridiculous. Going back to my vet (where the cans aren't dented) for dog food.

I am a new customer to Chewy.com and this is how they treated me; I bought from them a case of vet prescription food for my sick 18yo cat. I’ve been trying to keep him alive so the vets could figure out what was wrong with him. He went from 27lbs to 8lbs in just a few years. No diet change. Hungry as ever, just was losing weight. Blood tests showed normal. With my first Chewy order, they sent me an email wanting to know all about my two cats. No i letters. Just caring emails from the employees. Then I had to return one order because I thought the cans would be smaller. They refunded me the cost of the food and instead of returning it, they suggested I could donate it to a shelter. Nice. But back to my sick cat and how Chewy turned everything around for me..
When I received that last order of the script cat food, my Lucky was too far gone and I had to put him to sleep. I wrote to Chewy and told them I’d be glad to send the food back as it was still in the box, unopened. Again, they refunded me the cost and suggested donating the food. But what they did the next day is really why I’m writing this review. I had a knock on my door and buried in my bed, I contemplated not answering it, but I live with my bedridden mother so it may have been an in home caregiver. Wasn’t that. A lady stood at my doorstep holding a very beautiful flower arrangement. I figured it was for mom, but she asked if I was Nancy. “Yes”, I said, quizzically. “These are for you.” How sweet. I figured they were for my loss of Lucky from a friend or family member. Again, wasn’t that.
There was a handwritten card: “We’re so sorry to hear of your loss of Lucky and our hearts go out to you. We know this time is tough and we’re always here if you need anything. Love, Jeremy, Chewy.com" Of this day and age of form letters and telephone recordings, it was not only a breath of fresh air. It was to me, a lifeline. As I took the flowers to my room, I sat them on the table in my eye line from the bed where I promptly got back in. With the covers over my head, I peered out to look at the flowers and a thought jumped in my head.
Here are people in a company that cares about people. They get up every day and go to work so they can bring joy to others that may need it more than they know. Regardless of what’s going on in their life, they’re here, thinking of my pain and reaching out in the most beautiful way. If they can do it. So can I. I got out of bed and got ready for the day. Before leaving to go to some animal shelters and get me a pet I could pour all my extra love on, I took one long look at the flowers and note, and because it’s not so heavy now, gathered up my pain to take with me and started my day. Thank you Chewy. You’ve helped me more than you know. I went into a depression and just stayed in bed for awhile.

Great alternative to brick and mortar shops. I've used Chewy.com for years now. No longer do I have to lug supplies home. They have everything my family needs even prescription foods. There is now better packaging for the cat litter and no more litter mess outside my front door. I do hope Chewy learns to package the food better though. I had to call about a crushed package and quickly got a replacement. Thank You! If the food had been packaged better I would not have had to call. Any air spaces in the box of 20 pounds of cat food will get crushed by the well packaged 42 lb box of cat litter if it is place on top of the the cat food.

So they asked me to verify my address, and the last 4 numbers on my credit card, and then said I could reorder!! I told them to just send the order I had already placed... duh! She said they couldn't, that I would need to reorder. I stated that that was NOT sane, and what would keep them from canceling my next order again!!?

Beware Consumers, There are so many companies and thieves thriving on these kind of practices, consumers are very busy with hectic life and forget to report to credit card companies. I have several transactions done in each statement period and if I do not pay attention this type of charges will be forgotten. I tried to find out who they were selling their product using my Chase Sapphire credit card. No help from Chewy.com, instead asked me to file police report and investigate. In my opinion this company is also part of fraud and in business selling online without proper credit card verification and security steps to prevent scammers from using third party cards.
I do not have pets and never bought anything in my life from this company in my life, they sold and shipped to a thief and charged me for it. They do not get paid when and if and only if a consumer notice or remembers to disputes. However there millions who will not remember or know their right to call for disputes for small charges like $100 or $200, which goes unnoticed. These guys are scammers and they are smart.

My cat is on a prescription food, but I just realized the brand Royal Canin has crap ingredients and charges $72 a baggie it. I wanted to change the brand to Hills same prescription more expensive and better ingredients and was denied. And I was told I need a new script. I explained there is no reason for the script to be changed. It’s the brand. I want better ingredients for my cat. Chris the supervisor was so rude and didn’t seem to give a care about my reasons or my situation. Which is my Vet is ill with cancer and can not write a new script 'cause he has closed his practice that I would have to find a new vet in order to get the script so my cat can eat. I said, "Then maybe I should close my account." He said, "Go ahead. No problem. Bye," and hung up.
I called back and the person (Anthony) I then spoke to was compassionate and tried to get another supervisor who explained to me policy and unfortunately couldn’t help me either. So even if you don’t change a script but want to change a brand you have to jump through hoops. You're married to the brand even if you find out they are poisoning your pets with crap ingredients. Lesson to all these - read ingredients. Don’t go by a well known brand. They trick you by making you think by paying more you're getting better product. Royal Canin should be ashamed and I am letting them know as well.

In early December, 2019 we order a prescription for our dog, Stella, who had lost her appetite because of kidney failure. We couldn't accept this possibility and ordered a stimulant prescription from Chewy to enhance her appetite. We never did used the stimulant as Stella became worst before we could use the medicine. We made the decision to have her put down. After Stella passed I called Chewy and asked if I could refund the medicine since I hadn't open it. No problem. The agent said that I would have a refund in 5-7 business days and I could donate the medicine to the local vet. We received the refund.
Now read this carefully. About 3 weeks later we received from Chewy a dozen roses with a wine gift card in condolences for our lost. This brought tears to our eyes. This goes above and beyond the call with this act of kindness. We do have a Chewy Warehouse in our town.

Chewy.com has earned a forever customer in me. I am afraid that I cannot explain well enough the customer service experience I had with George, when I opened a chat with him to ask about the shelf life of Iam's Large Breed dog food. You see, I have two large breed dogs... an 8 year old great dane named Max, and a 6 year old American bully, Lexi. I have been, for years, subscribed to Chewy.com's auto-ship program, and every four weeks have two of their 30-40lb bags shipped. They come in, we dump them into the easy scooping bins. Two bags last about a month for both dogs. Usually.
Well, early December 2019 Max developed a knot or what I was hoping a cyst on this front right ankle/leg. A week later it had doubled in size. I took him to the vet and was given the worst news. It's bone cancer. A very aggressive bone cancer that was not effectively treated without compromising quality of life. I was told I had weeks before I should seriously consider "helping him along". The longer I waited, the bigger a risk of that leg breaking... it being a front leg on a Dane, a break would be catastrophic for all of us, most of all Max.
I pushed for more time. Max was doing ok with this pain meds... but after a couple of weeks his decline was noticeable. He was hardly eating, his lump was growing daily and starting to protrude out of the back side of his leg. I knew the cancer had spread through the leg bone from one side to the other. He was barely getting himself up off his couch and the worry of a break was constant. On 12/31/19 we made the decision and said goodbye. I am not new to putting suffering animals down, but putting Max down when he still had a wag in his tail was not only heartbreaking, but felt morally wrong to me. I was so concerned with my conflicting feelings and mourning, that I forgot about all of the food that was on auto-delivery.
Couple days later, I received my shipment. Two new 30lb bags of food. Hubs did as he normally would. Emptied both bags in the scoop bins and burned the trash. It wasn't until yesterday that I even thought about the excess food. I opened a chat with George at Chewy.com and inquired about the shelf life of this particular brand. I didn't want it to go bad. It would take MONTHS for Lexi to eat 3 - 30lb bags of food. All of which were taken out of the bag already. George informed me there was a shelf life, and then did the unexpected. He offered to refund me for three bags. No questions asked, no taking no for an answer. He expressed his condolences and told me that I had enough to deal with and not to worry about the food.
I promised that I would donate wherever would allow for opened containers and thanked him from all of us! Then, when I got home from work tonight... I found a beautiful bouquet of flowers from George and Chewy.com, who sent their love and sympathy for our loss. BEST. PEOPLE. EVER. I <3 CHEWY FOREVER. Thank you George, and Chewy.com. From the bottom of my heart!

Out of 5 shipments I was only happy 2 times, big 40 lbs of cat litter are put in a box with 24/26 cans of cat food with no protection around them, there is so much room in the box it is all slamming/knocking together and damages the cans.
Today was the last straw, I ordered some Vitamins and another cat bed. Apparently it had to be shipped in 2 separate shipments, regardless the $ 40 was on hold on my credit card, but then next day it charged me $ 15 for 1st shipment and then next day another $ 25 for the 2nd shipment again. The hold of $ 40 is still on my card, so basically I am out of $ 80 for a few days till the $ 40 hold comes off. I am done now with this.

We were told we could donate them and not have to go to the trouble of sending it all back. We did donate everything to the Humane Society of Chesapeake. Would recommend this company without reservation or hesitation. Thank you to Chewy.com for their caring and good service.

I figured I would give Chewy.com a try as I am chronically ill and sometimes shopping is a bit too much for me. They said at the top of their site that it was 1-2 days shipping... I purchased items around 5:48 am on 1/3/20... One package won't reach me until sometime on 1/6/20 and the other won't be here until 1/8/20!!! This is NOT 1-2 days and it is utterly ridiculous that it didn't ship on Friday! Will not be using again, I will try another company and will be deleting my account as well.

THE SITUATION: I wanted to go with Chewy.com to simplify my life. Free shipping and not having to carry heavy food was an awesome thought. I have three large dogs. Two (80#) Boxer mixes a Border Collie and a Blue Maine Coon Cat, all rescues. My first order went through fine even though it was in December. THE PROBLEM: My second order has become a nightmare. I got an email sent after 5PM today that they did not have the dog food and if I did not get back with them today they would cancel the whole order. Luckily I did check my email when I got to our home out in the country and found the email.
I then began a chat to sort out the problem. We got it worked out, BUT it will not be here until Wednesday because it did not ship out today. So I will go out and buy a couple of cases of dog food on a special trip to town tomorrow because I will not let my babies go hungry. I give them some wet food so their meds can be taken easily and then dry food for the bulk. I think this will be my last Chewy order because the customer service is not aware that you will have problems if you begin switching your dogs' diets around, the shipment will be late causing more problems than simplifications. Do not believe Chewy! They do not make life easier.

I have been purchasing from Chewy for a few years. I had 3 cats, one with diet restrictions due to pancreatitis. On two separate occasions my cats would not eat food ordered and Chewy gave me credit for food which I donated to local shelter. Once was delivered to wrong address and next day I received replacement order. I said I had 3 cats. A couple weeks ago my 19 yr old crossed the rainbow bridge. What did Cewy do? Sent a beautiful bouquet of flowers with expressed sympathy. This is a company who truly cares about your fur family and what is best for them. I will be a Chewy customer as long as there are in business. What professionalism.

I cannot say enough good things about Chewy.com. Their customer service is better than any company I have ever dealt with. Our dog recently passed the day before Christmas Eve and with all of the chaos of dealing with his surgery and the holidays we forgot to cancel his autoship. Not only did customer service refund our order and cancel the autoship, but they told us to donate the expensive prescription food in our dog's name to a local shelter instead of returning it. The customer service rep also wrote a heartfelt response back about our furry family member's passing. I highly recommend this company.1

Veterinarian prescribed the new drug ** for an allergic reaction for my English Mastiff, Vet called in script to Chewy the same day as I placed the order. Chewy did not even fill the script for 5 days. I did not receive the medication for 8 days. I called Chewy after the 3rd day to check on the med. I was told that they do not fill a script up to 24 hours after receiving the order from the vet.
I tried to get them to do the math. If what they were saying about the 24 hours I should have received the medication at my house in about 4 days. 24 hrs to fill and package then their advertised 2 day delivery = 3 to 4 days NOT 8. Food orders are great and I love ordering food from Chewy but will never order a prescription from them ever again!!

My husband and I bought an antibiotic ointment for our new kitten who had an URI and developed conjunctivitis with it. We had the kitten for all of a week before her other symptoms unrelated to the URI worsened, and we took her back into the vet to find out that she had suffered a traumatic fall which ruptured her diaphragm and caused her intestines to become entangled in her chest cavity which was suffocating her heart. After a lot of struggle, we decided to put her down. After we had spent the whole day at the vet and put our little girl to sleep, we arrived home to our chewy.com box with her ointment at our front door. We called to tell them that she had passed and we no longer needed the ointment and asked if we should send it back. The woman who helped us assured us we did not have to send it back, and to kindly donate the product in our kitten’s name to help another animal in need.
We arrived home today and were greeted to roses at our front door with a hand written message from chewy.com offering their condolences for the loss of our kitten. I am truly amazed that a company would be so kind and compassionate in the moment when we called to tell them we didn’t need our product anymore, let alone going above and beyond to send flowers. We got little to no empathy from the shelter we adopted our kitten from, with the “cat coordinator” acting like nothing had really happened even though the trauma and neglect that ultimately ended her life occurred in their care. We got more care and empathy from this company than anyone else involved, and I am truly thankful that there are still good people in this world. Thank you for your kindness, it has been truly appreciated during this difficult time.

When a large outfit like Chewy is continually out of stock of a very common item like **, in BOTH ointment and suspension form, you gotta wonder what's going on. I had a similar experience with **.

I've ordered my cat's prescription food multiple times through Chewy and had no issues. However, this time was very different. I accidentally forgot to change my shipping address on my autoship (I had just moved). I did this the last time and emailed them about it and they got it fixed ASAP. I emailed them literally 30 seconds after I placed the order about the address (this worked last time). No reply. The next day it shipped so I called and told them about my issue. No problem, it just might be a day or two late. The next two weeks consisted of the food shipping to my city then shipping back to Arizona 2 times, with a total of 5 phone calls to Chewy. I got a refund, at least. Finally, it said my "package was declined."

Chewy Auto-ship is great and flexible. We are currently in a predicament where a package is being delayed by the delivery service they use. We have been in contact with Chewy about it and they have done wonderful with listening to us vent frustrations. This morning, after a now 12 day delay on the delivery we made another call. The representative was so helpful that she even checked a local Pet Smart to see if they have the prescription food for our dog in stock. Once confirmed she stated that if the package does not come today, she will have the prescription forwarded to there so we can purchase what we need to hold us over until our package is finally delivered. The only thing I think they could do better is to also contact their shipping company and push to get this delivered, so I am not fighting that battle on my own. Thank you for going the extra mile and caring about our fur child with special dietary needs.

We tried Chewy because we had a coupon, but now I'm wishing we just went to a local store. The day I ordered, Friday morning before 9am, it said the packages left the warehouses (two separate ones).

The other package didn't even leave Arizona for the first 3 days. It was supposed to be here today, and then this morning I get a message that it's delayed AGAIN. This is extremely inconvenient for us, because we have a Christmas party to attend tonight and we were giving the treats we bought as gifts. So now I have to go to a local store and spend more money.
When I complained to customer service their only answer was higher than normal volume, and weather. They sent me a return label and said once the facility received them they would process the refund.

My best friend of 12 years was a male tabby who was diagnosed with diabetes. As such, he was put on a prescription diet that Chewy was able to verify with my vet (quickly) and supply me with automated shipments at considerably lower cost than I was paying from the vet directly. I used Chewy for about 6-8 months and I highly recommend them.
I never missed a shipment. They were fast & efficient while I used Chewy. There was only one time where I received a package of the wrong prescription food, which they didn't require me to return and got a next-day replacement in the mail immediately and suggested I just donate the wrong stuff to the shelter on their dime.
I came to write this review because I just recently received a handwritten Christmas card from them which you don't see anymore. It immediately brought back some really tough emotions because my buddy's diabetes had complications; he got pancreatitis. It put his little system into a meat grinder and I had no choice but to have him euthanized to end his suffering.
If you have a pet with special needs, specifically in the case of diabetes, it affects your life a lot more than it does your pet. I tailored my life around making sure he got his insulin shot every 12 hours and was eating healthily for almost a year. Chewy made this process of caring for him so much simpler since I knew I could rely on them to get me his food at a fair price reliably and any (the 1) mistake was proven to be handled quickly and taken as seriously as it should be. I would definitely recommend doing business with Chewy for any pet needs.

Once again, Chewy has gone above and beyond to make sure their customers are taken care of. I have a set auto shipment of canned dog food that ships out every 4 weeks. This past shipment that was sent out in November 2019 was somehow lost and never arrived at my home. I contacted Chewy and without missing a beat, I received an email back from customer service within 10 minutes saying they were so sorry it never arrived and that they were rush shipping my dog food that very minute. This is the second time Chewy has rushed to assist me with an order and I greatly appreciate their dedication. I will always continue to praise them!

My recent order included a bed that was supposedly shipped separately as the rest of the order was delivered. I noticed the tracking for the bed, which was late, said it was delivered. It was not. I was home and would have seen/heard the delivery person. It was absolutely not delivered by FedEx even though they say it was.
My first attempt at fixing with online chat utility "Joshua **" I was left hanging, he said he was looking up but never came back. Finally I tried again and another person helped. I have a been having a regular monthly autoship for some time now but that is ending. I have had 3-4 issues this past year and all of them have been the result of FedEx, from tossing and damaging packages to now lying about delivery. I have deliveries 4-5 days a week all UPS or USPS and never have issues, just with FedEx. As long as Chewy continues to use FedEx I will get my monthly pet supplies elsewhere. I will also take every opportunity both online and off to share my opinion and experiences relating to this.
