I visit Pets at Home on a regular bases and the staff at The Morpeth branch and the Gateshead branch are fantastic, very helpful! So I have had to address the terrible service from a member of staff at the Silverlink Wallsend branch. Just recently I visited this branch and a member of staff (Beth was her name) was so off hand ! She was on her phone when I arrived , she had a terrible manner / attitude like I was interrupting her day ! Very unhelpful she really had no customer care training at all and made my visit to that store the last one!!

This has to be the worst website in the country. Always have problems placing an order. This time it had taken nearly a week and I still can’t place an order. I have tried using my account, signing in as a guest, using different search engines (Google Chrome, Google, Safari, Bing) - nothing!!! Absolutely ridiculous! With the money this company makes you would think they would invest in a decent website!!!!

The price fluctuations on dog food at pets at home I find is an absolute rip off . James well beloved food up by £10 and beta puppy which was 31 pounds on offer has gone up to £43 and you can get it online for £25 and free delivery . Running costs of the store is not worth paying their prices . Offers on pet food are not really offers and over the years I have found pets at home go more and more expensive to shop in and the coupons on the app are not worth even the journey Will shop online

The staff come across unknowledgable give wrong advice or incorrect products not consistent in what they say even though they have allegedly had the same training. Quick to shift blame onto customer for example even though customer was led by " their " own suggestion.

I ordered and paid for a 2 day delivery date. Ordered on Wednesday and was told my items would arrive on Friday This was then pushed back another 3 days to Monday which then meant I had to go to the shop and buy extra dog food! I will not use again!

Visited the Coleraine Branch yesterday to buy some items for my newly rehomed German Shepherd pup. I was served by Stephen who helped me select my items and was helpful, knowledgeable, overall a very pleasant shopping experience. I shall certainly be back !

I took my 8 month old puppy to the groom room at pets at home for a wash and cut when I went to collect her I was very unhappy with the results she had been very badly cut she was shaved under her stomach and up her sides definitely this was a very bad error also areas of her face was very uneven with a bold areas around her nose I will definitely not be taking her there again I had read other reviews about people being unhappy with the cutting at this particular groom room if they are not experienced in cutting pedigree dogs they should have said this has been very upsetting for me

We bought my granddaughter a hamster at the Evesham Branch. Sammy was wonderful and gave us the best advice. Can’t recommend enough.

Waste of time being a so called VIP customer! No vouchers that I ever had I've been able to use as my dog is on a vet special diet ( royal canin urinary ) which is rather expensive. So I've saved them the postage now and have became an ex VIP!! When you join up this company should explain that vouchers are for normal pets with nothing wrong with them. Its a big company who should be aware that not every pet is the same!!

Extortionate prices for a very average service. My not so great experience entailed a store visit with my dog for a grooming. Besides it being an eye watering £42, the sleep around his rues was left on which is quite unacceptable. Emails were traded and lip service paid by PAH so not surprisingly, that’s led me here. Customer Service doesn’t really offer any resolutions other than mealy mouthed apologies. Be careful if you are using for the two reasons I’ve listed above

Pets at home are the worst pets company in the UK. They are overpriced and spread a lot of incorrect information. Rabbits in particular. We have a massive issue in the UK with overbreeding and too many rabbits in shelters. Stop selling them!! Rabbits do not belong in hutches or cages. They require as much space as any cat or dog - anything less is cruelty. Never buy your hay, pellets, forage or treats from these corporate detached businesses. Pets at home - do the right thing and put welfare before the £££. I’m taking this to your COO too as the list just gets longer and impacts most animals that you stock for. I welcome anyone else to do the same - coodirect@petsathome.co.uk

I received exceptional service today at My Warrington store of Pets At Home . I was helped with my query s by a most Helpful staff member, Her name I thankfully found on my receipt . Although only her first name " Tabitha ". It is a credit to this company that staff Members are very knowledgeable when I have ever needed any advice with my two dogs . Never before have I felt the need to show my appreciation to somebody's help and dedication. Once again,. "Thank you Tabitha". Thank you Pets At Home. Brenda Hinton Warrington.

Worst customer service ever!!!!! I ordered an item and paid for expedited delivery as I urgently needed it before I went away. They failed to deliver as per my payment and even though I warned them that I would no longer be in the country to refuse delivery, they completely ignored me. Now there is a parcel sitting outside my door with the risk of being stolen and I am also going to lose my 14 days return policy as I won’t be back to the country for 4 weeks. I will never use them again. They are the most unhelpful people ever!

Went to Blackpool PAH to buy a little coldwater fish for my grandaughter. I politely asked an assistant to catch one in particular which was about 1" but grows to about 2" I was told. Anyway before she would get it she asked ... quite officious now .. how big is your tank. I tried to demonstrate with my hands a rough size and she shot me down sayibg that won't do as she wanted the litre size. I said I have no idea. She said unless I had at least a 60 litre per fish size tank then they could not sell me the little fish. Rudely and aggresively I was told she needed proof of the tanks size. She went to get the most arrogant rude 'manager' who told me the same thing. He tried to belittle me in front of other customers. I said to my wife lets go elsewhere and forget this. I said to the upstart this is nonsense and he turned to me aggresively and said ' did you just tell me to F..k off ?" In front of other customers with little children. I said "no I said forget this its nonsense and would not have sworn " He just turned away after trying to stare me out. Disgusted is an understatement never ever again would I ever recomend this awful place. Please be warned.

I don't usually write reviews because, well, I have a busy life and let a lot of things go really. I feel this time, I'll make an exception. I returned a box of 'Johnson' Flea treatment to Beaumont Leys Branch of 'Pets at Home'. I had bought it on the advice of the sales assistant in store Two weeks earlier and used it as directed on my Three month old Pup. It didn't work at all, she still has Fleas. I had bought the product, as my Pup is under Three Kilos and I therefore could not use 'Frontline' which is what I use on my Cats, and thought I could use on my Jack Russell Pup. But no, on the advice of the sales assistant, I should buy the Johnson's product. On returning the product, I was initially told I could exchange it for something else, great, I thought, I need quite a few things today. I'm really pleased to have a 'Pets at Home' store a couple of miles down the road from me as I buy a lot of stuff for my cats and will also need lots for the Pup as she grows. They have a great selection of products. However, another member of staff came over and said they no, would not give a refund, or an exchange. I argued the point and he was very insistent, bordering on rude. I eventually said OK, fine. At no point was there an apology, an admission that they are selling a product that doesn't work, or any good will at all really. So, I won't be back there anytime soon, for sure and all over an £8 or £9 product (I can't quite remember how much it was , as I bought a few other things). But, in my opinion, which I might add, the member of staff vigorously argued against, it is basically selling a product that is not fit for purpose. I believe that to be against the Trades description Act. But no, I was clearly mistaken in this view. May I suggest some further customer service training for the staff might be helpful to keep customers like myself on board during these difficult times both for retail and their customers.
