Yes, pet meds pricing is hard to beat, but their customer service has gone downhill as of recently. When you call your toad that your whole time is less than 10 minutes after waiting for 30 minutes.... See more

They have the best selection of pet medicines around, and I loved their free samples. However, I was very frustrated with their subscription service. I would order a 30 day supply of vitamins and wait... See more

Gwen helped me and resolved all my issues in an efficient and friendly way! I also appreciate that the recorded message said that the wait time would be over 10 minutes, because it was nearly half an hour. That’s actually why I didn’t rate the experience 5 stars.

The automated system was incredibly…frustrating!

The automated system was incredibly frustrating. When I finally reached a person, even though I needed a call back due to the volume of calls being answered, the agent was extremely efficient and helpful. The automated system needs some improvement.

Excellent customer service

The agent I spoke to (sorry I don't remember her name) was amazing. She explained there was an error with the system and she would be glad to help me reorder the items. She ensured all items were reordered and the auto ships were setup. She also tracked down a missing prescription I mailed in as only 1 of the script was received but I sent in 3, for my 3 dogs, in the same envelope. She was very polite and courteous. You should value such an amazing employee.

Customer service with someone you can understand is soooo helpful!

Oh gosh, please forgive me..I forgot the fellows name that assisted me today? He was awesome! Easy to understand, helped me with my order, added an extra coupon code for me and helped complete my transaction via the phone. So appreciative of his customer service especially so late in the day. Thank you so much! I really appreciate your service😊

A fantastic representative makes all the difference

I believe I spoke with your representative Susie (sp) and I have to tell you that she is beyond wonderful. She went way above and beyond to help me out through three tricky parts of my order. She even went as far as to call me back an hour or two later to personally tell me that my order was shipped and will be arriving before my medication runs out. I wasn't expecting it for a week and I have it in two days is insanity and couldn't be more appreciated. I truly have to say that if customer service was like this everywhere, this part of life would be infinitely more tolerable.

I have been a customer for a few years…

I have been a customer for a few years and have gotten flea medication in a reasonable amount of time. I had an issue with the last order. I ordered on Sunday and although my vet didn't approve the prescription until Tuesday, as of Thursday, I didn't get a shipment confirmation. I called 1800petmeds and they said the approval that was faxed over was cutoff and therefore caused the delay. Instead of contacting. the vet and fixing it on Tuesday, my order just went into a pile until I pushed. Then customer service said it would take 3-5 days for shipping and said if I'm paying that much, it should not take 3-5 days after I ordered and I was charged 4 days ago.

Hello Dale,

We are truly sorry hear that your order was delayed. We understand how frustrating that can be and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We are actively looking into the cause and taking steps to prevent future delays.

We do show an order was placed on Sunday, 8/3/25 for Bravecto for Tanner. Our system automatically reached out to your vets office the same day but our pharmacy is not here on Sundays so your vet probably would not get the request until the following day, Monday 8/4/25..

Our pharmacy would then send another request for approval within 24 hours. Looks like our pharmacy also called the vet directly on 8/7/25 to see if we could get a verbal approval for the order due to the cut-off of the original RX. Our pharmacy was able to get it approved over the phone on Thursday 8/7/25 so the order shipped out the same day. Shipping confirmations and tracking information is emailed once the order is all set to ship. We show that the order is Out For Delivery and is being delivered today by 7:50pm, Saturday 8/9/25..less than two days later.

All orders require a pending charge (hold) when the order is first placed so the order can ship as soon as the approval is received and the order is ready to go. Once the order is approved and ready, that pending charge (hold) reverses and falls off. Reversal of funds can take 48-72 hours depending on your financial institution. You were only charged once for this order.

We will have one of our team members reach out to you directly to discuss this matter and help make it right.

Warmest Regards,
The PetMeds Team
