Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 192 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many people experienced significant delays, with orders often taking weeks to arrive instead of the promised days. The chosen delivery partners, particularly GLS, were frequently criticized for poor service, unreliable tracking, and damaged or missing packages. Reviewers also reported unhelpful customer service, struggling to get updates or resolutions for their delayed orders. However, some customers appreciated the wide selection of products, including specialized pet food, and noted the good quality of items. A few other people also felt that ordering was easy and some even received their deliveries within the expected timeframe. Though some reviewers found customer service responsive in specific instances.

Excellent products and customer service but terrible delivery service

Excellent products and I have had no issues with them. But the delivery service is shocking and is getting worse, always late and never within the rime frame specified. Please bring your delivery service in line with your excellent products and excellent customer service!

Thanks for sharing such balanced feedback, Colette.

I’m really pleased to read your kind words about our products and customer service — that level of trust truly means a lot.

At the same time, I’m sorry that the delivery experience has been letting you down.

I completely understand how frustrating it is when parcels arrive late or outside the indicated timeframe, especially when everything else meets expectations.

For Ireland, orders are dispatched from our EU warehouses rather than the UK, and delivery times can vary depending on stock availability and the carrier’s local performance. If it helps, we explain how dispatch and delivery timeframes work here: https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/solutions/articles/76000046414-when-will-my-parcel-be-dispatched-.

Your feedback is genuinely appreciated and helps keep a strong focus on improving this part of the service.

Thank you again for your continued support and for taking the time to share your experience so openly.

Poor customer service

Each time I place an order, the package has taken weeks to arrive, with no explanation, apology, or alert. I am now waiting nearly 7 weeks for my latest order, and definitely will not be ordering again. I would not recommend this service. Furthermore, they will not refund me despite my request to do so.

I’m really sorry to read about your experience. Our delivery times are outlined here - https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/solutions/articles/76000046414-when-will-my-parcel-be-dispatched- - but what you are reporting is something that requires investigation.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t locate your account details based on the information shown here. For privacy and security reasons, I’m not able to look into individual orders publicly on Trustpilot.

If you could please get in touch with our customer care team via https://www.zooplus.ie/contact_form/, or follow up on any existing communication and reference your Trustpilot review, I’d really like our team to review what’s happened and see how we can assist you further.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — it’s important to us, and I’m genuinely sorry for the disappointment caused.

experience has gone downhill completely

I was a loyal customer of Zooplus for 3 years and genuinely liked their service. However, ever since they switched their delivery partner from DPD to GLS, the experience has gone downhill completely.

Every single order started arriving weeks late, and more recently, my packages haven’t even arrived at all. I’ve contacted customer service multiple times, but they were never able to provide a proper solution — which is honestly quite disappointing.

Based on my recent experiences, I can no longer recommend ordering from them.

Terrible delivery times

Terrible delivery times.
The dog food I ordered 6 days ago was shipped from their warehouse in Poland. I was told it could take up to 4 days once the parcel reaches Ireland to be finally delivered. It still hasn’t reached Ireland.

Goodbye Zooplus

I am a zooplus customer for years, the quality of the articles, particularly the dog food is high BUT
Over the last 2 years the delivery service is absolutely abysmal.
I don't know why it says delivery within 3-6 working days, the norm is now 14 days. That's it, after this delivery I will not order anymore.
I had enough.

Hi G,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m really sorry to read how disappointing the delivery experience has been for you. It’s especially frustrating when you’ve been a loyal zooplus customer for years and have always valued the quality of our products, only to see that confidence undermined by ongoing delays.

I completely understand why waiting around two weeks for deliveries, despite the stated 3–6 working days, would test anyone’s patience. This clearly isn’t the experience you should expect from us, and I’m sorry that the situation has led you to feel you have no choice but to stop ordering.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to locate your customer details in our system based on the information shared here. As Trustpilot is a public platform, I’m unable to look into individual cases directly for privacy reasons.

It would be great if we had that chance and review, in details, what’s been happening with your deliveries – please, if you could very kindly get in touch with our customer care team via the zooplus.ie contact form, or follow up on any existing communication, and mention your Trustpilot review, so the team can investigate this properly.

Your feedback about the delivery times is extremely important, and I’m genuinely sorry that we’ve let you down on this occasion.

The speed of delivery was fine but the delivery was shocking, the parcel was dropped inside my garden gate, bearing in mind we were at home, the driver didn't have the decency to open the gate to deliver to front door. The neighbourhood isn't the best and I'm surprised it wasn't taken. While looking back through the camera I saw the driver putting it just inside gate, my previous delivery from zooplus went missing and now I know why, hence now have camera. Review your delivery company. Last time ordering from you.

Hi Olwyn,

I’m really sorry to read about this experience. While I’m glad the delivery arrived quickly, I completely understand the delivery experience has caused you concern – especially given what happened with a previous order.

I can’t locate your details from the information shared here, so I’m unable to look into this specific delivery publicly.

I’d really encourage you to contact our Customer Care team directly via the zooplus website, mentioning this review. That way, we can make sure the issue is properly logged and addressed. For privacy reasons, I can’t do that part here on Trustpilot.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, even though it’s a disappointing one.

I would give it no stars if I could, order and pay, then nothing ! Trying to get info on an update has been time consuming , will not be ordering anything else from them in the future, not worth the hassle and very unreliable, don’t even bother looking at their delivery times , mine hadn’t even left the warehouse a week later!

Prices are no longer attractive at all compared to local stores. There’s a strange policy of deleting product reviews and reposting items with zero feedback. It’s a pricing mess with fake promotions on overpriced products. Also, the delivery time leaves a lot to be desired.

Hi Robert,

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts — I’m sorry to read how disappointed you feel with your recent experience on zooplus.ie.

I understand your frustration around pricing and promotions We understand how frustrating this can be and want to assure you that we don’t take these decisions lightly: due to rising suppliers and logistics costs, some price adjustments across our assortment have unfortunately been unavoidable.

That said, we’re also reviewing our pricing regularly to ensure it remains fair and accurate.

We remain committed to offering value through benefits like free shipping on orders over certain amounts, regular discount codes, and our zooplus Club program.

I’m also sorry to hear your concerns about product reviews. I want to reassure you that reviews are moderated, not removed arbitrarily, and only those that don’t meet our guidelines may be declined. That said, I appreciate how this can look confusing from a customer’s point of view.

Regarding delivery times, I completely understand how disappointing delays can be, especially when expectations aren’t met. The good news is that we are constantly working on that to improve our service to you.

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to locate your details in our system, so I can’t look into your specific case from here. If you’d like us to review this in more detail, please reach out to our customer service team directly via your zooplus account or the contact options on our website, mention your review as reference, and we will be happy to help.

Thank you again for your honest feedback.

They're being really sneaky with these discount codes. I recently used a 20% off code for Felix and compared the order to my previous one. It turned out that the one with the discount actually ended up being more expensive. The prices of so many products are just way marked up

Hi Art,

Thanks for taking the time to share this — I’m really sorry to hear how frustrating this felt.

I understand why it’s disappointing to expect a saving from a discount code and then notice the total doesn’t look better compared to a previous order. I want to reassure you that our promotions are always applied exactly as advertised.

Unfortunately, I can’t locate your details from this review alone, so I’m unable to check the specific products or pricing you’re referring to. Our Customer Care team is the only option we have to assist you and will be happy to take a closer look and explain how the prices and discount were calculated for your order.

Reaching out to them directly will allow this to be reviewed properly and privately.

I appreciate you raising this, as transparency around pricing really matters to us.

3 times i have ordered from this company and 3 times I've had issues with gls deliveries in Dublin!!!! I have mentioned this to both companies and zoo plus keeps using this company anyway. If you're ordering from them you could be delayed by 2or 3 weeks for your order. No one is helpful on the phone either. We have had to spend extra money buying dog food because we ran out while waiting for our order. It costs us extra each time we wait for delivery. one excuse from gls was the weather then it was protested in dublin, then our driver kept our delivery in his truck for 2 days and eventually delivered it when we complained. Amazon, DPD, UPS and others are able to deliver but gls are guaranteed to delay and not take responsibilities for there terrible service. Zooplus needs to take action.

Hi Nina,

I’m really sorry to read about your repeated delivery issues and the stress this has caused you, especially when it resulted in running out of dog food and having to spend extra money. That’s understandably frustrating, and it’s not the kind of experience I want customers ordering from zooplus.ie to have.

I appreciate you taking the time to explain what’s been happening with GLS in Dublin. While factors like weather or local disruptions can sometimes impact deliveries, what you’ve described is clearly not acceptable.

As I was able to locate your details in our system, and since we cannot assist you publicly here for security and privacy reasons, we will communicate with you via our official channels.

Cheaper and Generally Efficient

I was surprised to see the overall rating for Zooplus so low, as I have always had a great experience with them - have ordered from them since 2021. I find they are consistently cheaper than any local pet shops, with a fantastc variety of items. Their dispatch of items is always really quick, and when they previously used DPD for delivery, they were always efficient, with the delivery guys so nice to deal with - they always waited to lift the (heavy) box into the house. Admittedly the change to GLS hasn't always been great, but sometimes they're okay. They aren't always clear what day/time the delivery would arrive, with the delivery guys leaving the package at the door and running off before the door is answered but that is maybe more a GLS issue than a Zooplus issue?

What a lovely read, Emma — thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and balanced review.

I’m really pleased to hear that zooplus has been your go‑to since 2021 and that you continue to find good value, a wide range and quick dispatch. It’s especially nice to read your comments about the DPD drivers helping with the heavy boxes — those little human touches really do make a difference.

I also appreciate you calling out the mixed experience with GLS. While delivery partners handle the final mile, feedback like yours is genuinely helpful and I’ll be sure it’s passed on internally, as clarity and care at delivery matter a great deal to us.

Thank you again for your trust and for sharing your experience so openly — it means a lot and really helps others when choosing where to shop.

I would give -5 if it were an option.

I would give -5 if it were an option.
For the past year I have had nothing only stress from zooplus. Orders never delivered, delivered over a month later but mostly never delivered and refunded.
I last placed an order on 5 March, zooplus told me it is dispatched, today 6 April I receive an updated invoice with a credit for the biggest portion of my order. How can that be explained?
If it was dispatched and still 'in delivery' which it says on my account, why are they sending me a minus invoice and I've had zero other information or updates from them in 4 weeks.

I honestly cannot understand when every negative review, and there are many, is concerning their choice of courier, they continue to use the same one.

I can't get this cat food for 3 cats from anywhere else and zooplus know this, they don't care that my cats aren't getting the food. They don't care about their customers, they don't even care for their own company.

My order no. Is 436814647.

I've been a customer for almost 10yrs and this past year has been the most horrible stressful purchases I've made.
How can an order be dispatched and partly refunded 4wks later? The contents must never have been dispatched in the first place which means not only do they use an unreliable, disgraceful courier, they are lying. Unbelievable. There are poor company's out there but Zooplus are the worst in my opinion.

I'd rate temu and shein head and shoulders above Zooplus.

BTW, I haven't even got the refund or any notification of one. I'm assuming I'll get it with a minus invoice update. I don't want money refunded that I spent on food for my cats. I want the food I spent money on, that's how trade works. Its the animals who suffer, my cats are only getting dry kibble now and coming to me for their wet food and I can't give them it because Zooplus have let us all down AGAIN!

What part of pet food supplier does Zooplus not understand?

EDIT IN RESPONSE TO THEIR RESPONSE.....
MY GOD I HAVE TRIED ALL WEEK TO SEND A QUERY THROUGH THE ONLINE COMMUNICATION AND HAVE GOT AN ERROR, TRY AGAIN MESSAGE EVERY SINGLE TIME.

I also highly doubt the legitimacy of the recent positive reviews. Any company can make an error, I don't mind dealing with that on occasion but this has been consistent. I'll likely get my refund, place another order and go through the above again as that is all I know to expect for the past year. This company is on its knees IMO. No legitimate business behaves this way.
