Would NOT recommend! My dog eats the Harringtons meat, after purchasing online I collected via click and collect the box was falling to pieces and many of the packets was opened. I emailed expressing what had happened, the situation was dealt with only to have 4 packets (pictured) which of course I’m not giving my dog! Emailed over 3 weeks ago, no response, will not be purchasing my dog food at pets at home.

My dog has spent 3 days in the vet and had emergency surgery after eating a beef rib from here which splintered into lots of small bits and caused a blockage in his small intestine. Selling products like this and displaying a small dog on the packaging is completely irresponsible. Cooked bone is extremely dangerous for most dogs so why is such a large company selling it. Unfortunately I trusted pets at home would not sell anything dangerous for pets however this is not the case. My vet says he’s seen this many many times and unfortunately my dog won’t be the last. These cooked bones need to be banned and taken off the shelves. I very nearly lost my dog and if it wasn’t for the amazing vet care team and 2500 pounds I would have. Please be careful when buying products for your dog from here, they’re not as safe as they may seem!

Misleading poor advice! Made to buy all male fish, guess the outcome? 1 dead, 1 bullying another by nipping fins, 2 left and not happy, hiding, not feeding, guess dead soon also,done research and boy the so called expert dont know his fish from his ####, as they fight because they want to breed, ratio not correct to stop the bullying, expert claims he has all males??? Dont think so, fishy business going on here!!!!!

Poor distribution network for online delivery. Orders not met. Wrong item sent in place of an item that a ‘suitably qualified person’ could have done, according to their third email for my missing package

Went to get some goldfish and was told they wouldn't sell me any without my name, address and proof. Isn't that in breach of data protection? What about privacy? I only want a couple of goldfish.

Rubbish VIP Club a real con you never get anything worth having £1 off Royal Canin but you have to spend £40 or over never get anything for my boys birthdays never get a magazine I have five dogs and a few quid off would help now and then your points go to their supported charities they are expensive and have now lost me to the convenience of cheaper online offers and home delivery

Well done to pets at home, you say you like animals, imagine if you don't. Went to the shop, asked for A bag of Royal Canin anallergenic dog food, I was told in store "we only sell it online" OK fair enough. Went onlyne and order it, payed for next day delivery and nothing until the end of the day. Called the costomer service, it was off do to covid, OK fair enough too. Chated with them online, and had the best answer, we will return you the next day delivery payment, I asked who do i feed my dog? we can't do nothing it will only be delivered tomorrow. What about the dog how can I feed him? we can't do nothing we gave you back the next day delivery extra. Well done boys, what's the point of having good people working in stores, if in the offices you don't worry about our animals. Thanks.

I had a click and collect order accepted then cancelled by email shortly after plus a warning it might take 3 days to refund me! I rang the branch (Guildford) and the manager Mike apologised but also sorted everything out for me. Exceptional service from Mike. Thank you

Yet again my online order was late..the 1st order was weeks late, I contacted them they took ages to find my order number to then be told its on its way..already 2 days late! Again they blamed it on courier company! They weren't really bothered..I was hoping they would have improved from my previous orders..but no!! Very disappointed

I want to tell you about the awful experience I just had in your Loughborough store with my daughter. I bought a tank about 6 weeks ago. Set it up and left to run for 2 weeks as instructed. Came back with my daughter and bought 2 platies and a 2 bottom feeders and was told we could introduce more fish in a couple of weeks. I see my daughter every 2 weeks and this tank is our little project. We were then we were told we couldn't add any more fish today. Then the assistant relented and said we could but only 1 kind. Then we were told they would probably die and it was our risk. By now my 5 year old is in floods of tears. I was also told the gravel substrate isn't suitable for the bottom feeders we bought previously even though at the time I was told it was. It feels like your team all have different ideas about how to sell fish and your training isn't consistent. Firstly I would like you to direct me to a definitive guide to how and when I can buy fish as your team doesn't seem to have a clue and the criteria for walking away with a fish changes with every assistant. Secondly, I would like an apology to my daughter whos weekend has been ruined. All the hard work she has been doing at school was to be rewarded with an addition to her tank. Finally I would like you to make sure all your staff are on the same page in your loughborough store. BTW while all this discussion was taking place we saw 2 dead fish in your own tanks.

Every time I shop at Pets at Home it is a great experience! I manage to find the items I need and they are mostly in stock. I also love looking at the Guinea Pigs and other little animals and I could spend ages looking at them through the glass. When it comes to paying, the staff are always very friendly, what’s more if you have forgotten your reward card they will use your name and postcode to to find it on their system so you don’t miss out on any special offers. My only gripe would be that some of their Guinea Pig toys can be quite costly, they usually have a good stock of different toys and their selection of Piggy foods and treats are fantastic. Overall this store is brilliant for all of your furry friends needs.

Many thanks to the lovely Lisa at the Exmouth branch of Pets at Home. She was very helpful in supporting our new bed purchase for our lovely Murphy. Thank you Lisa for your knowledge, guidance and support. You have helped Murphy be a very happy boy. Lisa assisted us in joining the puppy club and therefore a discount was offered, always great to have a discount with a costly, growing puppy. I think Pets at home will become our 2nd home. Take care, stay safe and keep smiling

Stevenage store. When asked for advice for a small puppy food the puppy weight being 4kg and 2 months old we was given a medium sized puppy food for the puppy weight 11kg+. We told them it should be a small puppy size but she again said "no you need the bigger size". So on the advice of the so called expert we used it and it absolutely ruined my poor puppies stomach. After 5 days of constant diarrhea my puppy started uncontrollably shaking. So after an expensive emergency trip to the vets and carpet ruined due to his uncontrollable bowel movements as it just driped out of him ( he was puppy pad trained till this horrific incident ). Then when my partner went back and asked for an exchange to the small puppy bag he was shouted at and spoken to like a fool because they was still saying the 11kg+ is for my dog and not the 2kg+ eventho my dog is 4kg and laughing. I will not advise anyone to ask for any of there staff for advice unless you want to end up paying out a fortune but more importantly the pain and damage it caused my poor little puppy....

This company sucks. It took them 1 month to let us that the product is out of stock. Even 1 star is too much for. Careless, unprofessional.
