After shopping here for several years I can no longer hide my frustration at the manager of this store he is a power freak. My French bulldog used to go into the shop for a ball several times a week while passing one day I was told by a member of staff he the manager to them to tell my if my dog touched another thing in the shop I would not be welcome back. All the toys balls are on the lower shelf on the floor for dogs to choose from all in touching distance like they have been put there on purpose for the dogs. Today I answered a call whil waiting at the checkout my phone rang and my dog lead fell out my hand dog ran outside the shop door so I went to get him and 5 second s later staff member abruptly insisted I give her the bone I was carrying thinking I was going to steal it im in the shop all the time i have a busses over the road from them. How about some respect to your customers.

The dog food arrived damaged

The dog food arrived damaged and after a few communications with Pets at Home I was issued a refund. Pets at Home do have “ live” customer assistance but they make it hard to get to them. First it’s AI and you have to work out how to then get to a live assistant. However, I did get my money back in the end. I buy from them as prices competitive, but don’t order trays of dog food as the couriers throw them about and they inevitably arrive open and damaged. Tins probably ok and I’ll do that in future or just go to the shop.

Everyone has been so helpful. 5 stars 🌟

Alice was helpful this morning, Kris also emailed me to explain the tracking process.
Aaishahas also just emailed me saying I need to wait 24/48 hrs before I get tracking details which I now understand, as soon as I get them I will reply to Aaisha and hopefully my order will be stopped and cancelled.
The help I have received from you has been outstanding and nothing has been too much trouble to help me.
I appreciate all that you’ve done for me.

Hi Lorraine, thank you for your feedback. We're very sorry to hear about your experience, especially while you are recovering from surgery. We appreciate that you trusted us with your dog's groom and can understand how disappointing it must have been to feel that there was little visible difference after the appointment, particularly given the cost involved.

We're also sorry to hear that you were left feeling dismissed when you contacted the salon afterwards. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we understand why this would have added to your frustration.

To help resolve further, please feel free to reach out to our customer service at your own convenience. We are keen to ensure this is resolved for you.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We wish you a smooth recovery and thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Best Wishes, Nicola.

I have just been to 3 different pets at home in Southampton area and none of them have any qualified people in today to sell me dog flea treatment which I think is out of order. Not very happy as been driving in this hot weather. Lost my custom today and probably many others.

Hi Lorna,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate how frustrating it must have been to visit multiple stores, especially in the hot weather, only to be unable to purchase the flea treatment you needed.

Certain flea and tick treatments can only be supplied when a suitably qualified colleague is available in store, and we're sorry for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. We understand the time and effort involved in travelling between stores and can appreciate your disappointment.

Your feedback is important and will be shared with the relevant teams for review. We hope we'll have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Best wishes, Frankie@PAH.

Excellent customer service

I recently visited the Pets at Home store in Bletchley, Milton Keynes 0770. Lily, one of the staff members was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. She went above and beyond to help me decide which food was best suited for my cat. I have always had a great experience in this store. Thank you.

FAULTY APP- WEB CHAT COMPLETELY USELESS !!!!

We have the Pets at Home app, and I have vouchers sent to it. Having cats and dogs we like to purchase lots of related products.

Just tried to add a couple of the vouchers , so shopping can be done online.
The dog food voucher went on straight away and is sitting in my basket waiting to be used.
The cat litter voucher keeps saying , 'voucher has technical issues please try again'.

Attempted a webchart with a very thick girl who does not accept the fact that A) , one of the vouchers for dog food went on fine, B), The terms and conditions are irrelevant to the cat litter voucher, as I can't add it ,so can't choose any.
The terms of conditions do not apply to personal choice. I've read the terms and conditions but I want to add the voucher to the online shop.
Pets at Home need to update and the app. It constantly has problems with it . When I asked her why did the dog food voucher go on perfectly alright with no issues, and I haven't chosen any yet, when I tried to repeat this with the cat litter voucher it refuses to load onto the basket. One doesn't choose items until both vouchers are in place. I'm perfectly aware of the terms of conditions and I haven't breached them.
The vouchers need to be added at the BEGINNING of the shop online, not at any point after shopping is chosen. This is what dumb MR does not understand.
I actually think it was a robot I was talking to !

Hello Darcey, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you've experienced with the app and that your contact with our web chat team left you feeling frustrated.

We appreciate how confusing it must have been when one voucher applied successfully while another repeatedly displayed a technical error message. We understand why this led you to believe there may have been an issue with the voucher or the app itself, particularly when you were trying to complete your shop online.

We're also sorry that you felt your concerns weren't fully understood during your web chat interaction. We always want our colleagues to listen carefully and provide clear, relevant support, so we're disappointed to hear this wasn't your experience.

Your comments regarding the app's performance and the support you received have been noted and will be shared with the appropriate teams for review. Frankie@PAH

Hello Stewart,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you've experienced following the change to your email address.

We understand how frustrating it must be to have been charged for an order and then feel unable to access your account information. Changes to account details can sometimes affect how orders are displayed, but this would not prevent us from investigating an order or reviewing any refund due.

So we can look into this further, please reach out to our Customer Care team with your order details and we'll be happy to review the situation. We appreciate your feedback and apologise for the frustration caused.

Disappointing visit and product…

Disappointing visit and product purchase. We have bought Purina pro biotic for cats before from our local store. Unfortunately they didn't have any on my recent visit and they recommended Protexin pro kolin paste.
My cats won't go near the stuff, doesn't smell appetising or matter how much we try to disguise it in food or treats. Will not be buying this product again from pets at home.

Hi there Chris, Thank you for sharing your experience.

We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your recent visit and with the Protexin Pro-Kolin Paste recommended as an alternative when your usual product was unavailable.

We appreciate that every pet is different, and it can be frustrating when a product that works well for one cat isn't accepted by another, particularly when you're trying different ways to encourage them to take it.

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding both the product and your experience in store. Best wishes, Frankie@PAH.

I couldn't sign onto the app to claim my pets birthday treat voucher and the helpful lady at Huddersfield branch with many piercings and brown eyes (sorry didnt get your name) took the whole issue onboard and came up with a satisfactory solution.

False representation and misleading prices

⭐ 1/5 Stars – Misleading pricing: “4 for 3” offer hidden as “Members Only” with zero warning

I visited your store recently and saw aquarium plants clearly labelled “4 for 3” along the entire shelf edge – there was absolutely no mention, sign, or disclaimer anywhere that this offer was only for members or required a loyalty card.

When I got to the till, staff told me the deal was “Members Only” – and when I asked where that was stated, they admitted it isn’t written anywhere at all on the shelf or labels.

This is completely against UK consumer law and pricing rules: any restriction on an offer must be clearly shown before you choose to buy, not only mentioned when you try to pay. It’s misleading, frustrating, and feels like a deliberate trick to get customers to pick up items thinking they’re on offer, only to change the terms at the checkout.

I asked to speak to the manager, but they simply repeated “that’s just how our pricing works” and refused to honour the deal as advertised.

If offers are only for members, you have a legal duty to tell people up front – don’t put the work on customers to guess what you haven’t bothered to label properly. I’ve reported this to Trading Standards as a clear breach of the Price Marking Order and Consumer Protection Regulations.
At the York branch who was very rude and who actively invited us to challenge this with trading standards so we have Jason.

We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your recent visit to our York store.

We understand your frustration and appreciate your concerns regarding the promotional pricing displayed on the aquarium plants. We would never intentionally mislead our customers, and we're sorry to hear that you felt the offer was not communicated clearly during your visit.

We're also disappointed to learn that you were unhappy with the service you received when raising your concerns in store. We always expect our colleagues to remain professional and helpful when discussing any query with a customer.

Your comments regarding both the promotional signage and your interaction with the store team have been noted and will be shared with the appropriate teams for review.

Ordered and paid for two boxes of dog food. Money was taken from my card but only one box was actually ordered. Rang the shop, I was told to ring customer services, but there's no such service, you are told to do the live chat online, they do not take your call, then you are cut off. Live chat, got told I only ordered one. Made me feel like a liar. I asked where's the evidence I only ordered one box? No answer came the reply.
A mess up at the shop ordering in person, but Pets at Home find it difficult to admit that or apologise.
Three emails off to PAH customer services all dismissing it is their problem. What a useless customer services you have Pets at Home.
