### 2/5 — Update

*2026-01-13, version 3.25*

As soon as I updated the app today I can no longer able to to to my account. It keeps anymore asking to prove I’m a human over and over and I can’t get any information anymore.

### 4/5 — Great App Great Deals

*2025-08-15, version 3.15*

I’m very happy with the new app and some of the deals are great when using auto ship . I’d love to see more food options

### 2/5 — App has become terrible

*2025-05-23, version 3.10*

Very slow. Links to track shipments of orders don’t work. I’ve filled out pet profiles including birthdate, medications, and pictures and the information is gone a few days later. Just awful now. Used to be ok.

### 2/5 — lost all my favorites

*2024-12-26, version 3.3*

I last used the app 6 months ago and it worked fine  Since then it must have been updated — all my favorites are gone  

deleting app in 3….2….1
poof!

(no tolerance for sloppy work)

### 1/5 — How? Why?

*2024-11-23, version 3.1*

I don’t know how such a big company operates with a horrible app. It never works right. Was hopeful that the updated app which had a slight facelift would be better, but, when I get to the review order button, NOTHING HAPPENS.

### 2/5 — Options don’t work

*2024-11-01, version 2.15.3*

I got this app to make it easier to look up the things I needed to do for my pet. 
First, I cannot add my pet,or
My vet, nor pet meds  nor does it show my orders.. the frames are there to fill in but then it goes no where or just keeps loading which it never does. What good is the app if you cant use it ?  Please fix it!

### 1/5 — Broken beyond belief

*2024-10-11, version 2.15.3*

Managing autoship just presents a blank page. Viewing payment methods traps you in an endless loop you can’t exit. It throws errors left and right. I’m not sure I’ve ever encountered an app from a major company with so many issues… it’s literally unusable.

### 1/5 — Riddled with bugs

*2024-10-09, version 2.15.3*

Hasn’t been updated in over a year and it shows.  It allowed me to add a quantity of 6 of dog food to the cart, but wouldn’t allow me to add my Amex CC because it wasn’t allowing more than 3 digits for the verification number.  So I setup PayPal.  When attempting to submit the order, it failed because they didn’t have the quantity available of the dog food that was already in my cart.  App is just as awful as the website.

### 1/5 — What did you do to the app???

*2024-07-15, version 2.15.3*

Used to work fine. Upgraded it and now it remembers that it’s me logged in with the “Hi, [Name]” but it deleted all my pet and medical and vet and auto-orders and meds information!!! Please fix it! I need to reorder my dog’s meds.

### 1/5 — Yeah, it’s easy to use but it’s not good

*2024-06-01, version 2.15.3*

Nothing gets updated from my or the company’s end— even when you edit and save it. I’ve tried to correct my pet’s age multiple times and it continues to default to 0-1 yrs meanwhile he’s 10. Forget about updating/editing your vet info! 

Plus, the statuses of the orders are never UTD on the app- it is way better and faster to use the website, imo.

### 4/5 — Can’t see my orders

*2024-05-28, version 2.15.3*

My prescriptions aren’t showing up in my profile, I can’t see any of my past orders. Please fix this so it makes reordering prescriptions easier.

### 1/5 — Needs updating NOW

*2024-05-23, version 2.15.3*

This app use to be good! Now it’s garbage. It will not let you delete pets that have passed away. It still shows all my orders open (even when we receive our item), it doesn’t allow you to track your order due to the order stating open.
I have called customer service and they are zero help! This app is now useless and not accurate!!!
It needs to be UPDATED!!!!

### 1/5 — Horrible App

*2024-05-12, version 2.15.3*

Doesn’t update from website.  Orders shipped & delivered remain “open” on the app.  I had to put one of my boys down and deleted them off my profile on the app…he still shows, but not on the website version.  Deleted app because I don’t want the reminder.

Get a better QA on your app development!!!!

### 1/5 — Completely let down.. hi oh yeah yeah thank you so much

*2024-04-27, version 2.15.3*

Title: Frustrating Experience with PetMeds: Constant Issues and Poor Customer Service

I've been a loyal customer of PetMeds for quite some time, but my recent experiences have been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. Over the past few months, they've been supposedly "updating their system," yet my orders keep getting lost in the process. Despite having refills on prescriptions, their system often shows otherwise, leading to unnecessary hassles and delays in getting my pet's medications.

Their AutoShip feature, which is meant to make things convenient, has become a nightmare to deal with. I constantly find myself having to call them to sort out issues, ranging from missing medications to incorrect refill information. It's not just a minor inconvenience; it's potentially dangerous for my pet's health when she doesn't receive her medications on time.

The lack of communication from their end is appalling. Despite reaching out multiple times to address these issues, I've received little to no resolution. It's as if they couldn't care less about their customers' concerns. As a pet owner, trusting a company with my pet's health is paramount, and PetMeds has failed miserably in earning that trust.

Overall, my experience with PetMeds has been a series of letdowns, frustrations, and concerns for my pet's well-being. I can no longer rely on them for consistent and reliable service. It's time to look elsewhere for a company that prioritizes customer satisfaction and takes pet health seriously.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-28, version 2.15.3*

On multiple occasions I’ve tried to access my orders so I can re-order and the app just never works. I always have to wind up calling and then I have to wait on hold and listen to very annoying advertisements and irritating music. Thinking about taking my business elsewhere

### 1/5 — What’s going on with this app?

*2024-02-29*

This app used to work well. For several months now it closes, doesn’t show order history and sometimes after a search, it will pop up an ad and there is not a way to get out of it. (Hill’s). (I have even deleted & reinstalled). 
After placing the order it gave an error about the medication /cart, yet it charged my bank account. Last months order still shows in a pending status, but I received it. 
Now I’m on hold to confirm this months order actually will ship. Very clunky, time consuming and not worth it. Super frustrating.

### 1/5 — Worlds worst app

*2024-02-22, version 2.15.3*

The app crashes continuously, never accepts my payment, and randomly logs me out all the time.  Way better to just go on the website.  I am deleting this app now.

### 2/5 — Needs updating

*2024-02-17*

This app has gone downhill! It has added our pets that have passed away 18 years ago! We never had this app back then, so I’m not sure how they have all of our pets names from that long ago! Freaky!!!!
It will not let me delete them! And now when I order something, it states the order is open. However, I just received  the order yesterday!
Please fix your app!!! Update it! There are so many bugs in it and it’s frustrating!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t Log In

*2026-08-22, version 3.41*

Can login online, but not in the app. The app will not load no matter how many times I clear it delete it and reinstall.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-03-30, version 3.31*

Hate this app. Not user friendly to say the least. Won’t let me track my packages. Keeps sending to this stupid verification page that just keeps reloading over and over asking if I’m a human. They just randomly canceled my orders saying it was a computer glitch on there end-? Whatever….

### 1/5 — Was great

*2026-01-07, version 3.24*

App was working great for a long time. Recently, every time I open the app, all I get is a blank white screen, that never loads. All tabs are like this. Can’t track my pet’s meds or essentials anymore. GREAT JOB!

### 1/5 — Medicine order

*2025-08-25*

I ordered my dog medication, and have still yet to receive it. When I called to find out what was going on with it, they told me that the post office canceled the order and now they have to redo the order for the medication which is going to take 2-3 days. And that they can’t give me overnight shipping again so now I have to wait even longer for it to get to me once they get the medication. Keep in mind this is for a seizure dog. Absolutely ridiculous. I still have nothing on my orders that this second order is being processed to replace the first one so I have no idea what’s going on with it. This is my first time ordering with them and it has been a nightmare.

### 1/5 — App Doesn’t Work

*2025-07-08, version 3.13*

Useless app when I comes to account management and order placement. The captcha never works, so I can’t ever see my account info, update any info, etc. 

Ordering directly though my vet because this process is a mess.

### 1/5 — Good concept, 0 execution

*2025-07-05, version 3.13*

I got this app for my puppy, I thought it was kinda like the “NURX” app but for dogs. I was so excited and prepared for the order that I made for my dogs monthly necessities. Did not come at all after waiting over a month. I had to cancel because it was asking me for my next delivery since I made a subscription. Had to cancel and on top of that, my dog ended up getting infested with fleas since the preventative never came. Whole thing was a hassle and I expected more, I tried calling customer service-got no response.

### 1/5 — Utter failure

*2025-03-30, version 3.7*

Links don’t work.  When you go to view your account you get stuck in a circle jerk of verifying you’re human. On 8th time and still nothing.  The ability to test apps and ensure they work before putting them into production is garbage.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-01-08, version 3.3*

My dog has heart failure. I told Pet Meds I only had 4 days of meds  left. The lady promised she’d send it priority.  It is now 8 days.  Customer service blew me off.  They just forwarded me the shipping info. If you care about your pets, find a better company.

### 1/5 — Website is not friendly

*2024-12-30, version 3.3*

Every time I try to cancel a delivery or reschedule a delivery the stupid app doesn’t work it freezes up!

### 1/5 — Terrible updates

*2024-12-29, version 3.3*

Your new app updates are awful. I could not move an auto ship to order now - no option for it. Then created a new auto ship order and it tells me I have to select a pet but does not populate anything for me to select, so I’m stuck.

### 5/5 — Best customer service ever!

*2026-07-08, version 3.38*

Got my meds for my dog the next day when I was totally out.  PetMeds really cares about your pet. So compassionate and caring!!

### 5/5 — Love the update

*2025-02-11, version 3.6*

Much more seamless experience than Chewy with new update and they have everything I need for my little guys at a good price A++

### 5/5 — Great shipping to Canada

*2022-10-11*

PetMeds had been great to deal with from Canada!  Shipping is a $14.99 USD flat fee no matter how many items you purchase and usually arrives in about 2 weeks.  I allow extra order time, as once my order took a month, but that was a Canada Customs back up issue, not PetMeds.
No prescription items are available for shipping to Canada and it’s a good idea to check prices and include dollar conversion to the cost.  Some items are more expensive than here, but some are a very good saving even with shipping and dollar conversion costs. 
Customer service is excellent!

### 5/5 — Meds arrived quickly!

*2022-10-07*

Thank you for the quick response when I had a problem getting my elderly dog her heart meds in southwest Florida after the hurricane. You reached out to the vet and you shipped them next day with no added expense. I really appreciate that she didn’t have to go a day without her medication. Thanks again!

### 5/5 — The best place for Pet meds

*2022-09-08, version 2.15*

Excellent service, friendly, enjoyable and they care for your pet. 5star ⭐️

### 5/5 — Petmeds

*2022-07-09, version 2.15*

I love PetMeds!

### 5/5 — Change is not good

*2022-06-23, version 2.15*

This app used to work great before the rebranding and changes. I can log in but not check history

### 5/5 — Lindy Lou

*2021-12-06, version 1.64*

800 Pet meds has been amazing for me. Anytime I have to talk to a rep, the rep has always been very nice and helpful. Always in the ball to help get meds delivered at a very reasonable time. The App is very easy to use and the discounts are great. Grateful for rewards also. Thank you

### 5/5 — Just wow!

*2021-10-28, version 1.64*

This kind of customer service is unheard of, especially lately. You have a customer for life and someone that will refer business forever.

### 5/5 — I find Petmeds easy to use and I think the staff r wonderful when I need them

*2021-10-20, version 1.64*

I just recommended this app and Petmeds to all my friends one is starting to use it today
