pets at home is a very popular place for people to buy small pets and supplies, however it gives out all the wrong info and is hypocritical and the reason for many animals have a bad life. There hamster cages are extremely small a way under the minimum however a lot of them are labelled "large hamster enclosure" when there far from it, their rabbit/Guinea pig enclosures are the correct sizes for hamsters and the minimum depth witch shows they can build cages the correct sizes and just make the bars smaller but do not. I have seen multiple people buying pets from there being given all the wrong info, people put their trust into this business but end up with stressed out animals living a bad life. yes, some of the products are good for eg SOME of their pet food such as the selective brand are good whereas updated vet studies have showed food such as the "friends farm harry hamster" food are not nutritional, another eg is on multiply YouTube videos say how rabbits need 2meters x 3meters and 1 meter tall to properly run around and do zoomies and binkies but in stores they say that they only need to be able to take 3 hops forward in their enclosures, very hypocritical. I believe that pets at home has a lot of potential too help many people educate them selves and give their animals a good life it would be so easy for them to sell the rabbit cages with smaller bars as hamster cages and get rid of the abusive cages they currently sell for hamsters and sell proper sized pens such as xpens for rabbits and Guiana pigs.

Absolutely impossible to pay for an order online. Quite hopeless. The chat line was no help at all .

PET SAFETY PRODUCTS ARE UNSAFE! NO RESPONSIBILITY TAKEN BY PETS AT HOME WHEN WEARING A PETS AT HOME DOG SEATBELT, MY DOG NEARLY WENT THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN AND FRACTURED HIS TAIL. THE SEAT BELT WOULDN’T HAVE CONSTRAINED A BUG! WAS PURCHASED IN GOOD FAITH TO KEEP MY DOG SAFE AND SECURE ON CAR JOURNEYS AND IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. I THOUGHT THATS WHAT SEAT BELTS WERE FOR?

Online order badly packed arrived in a battered box. 24 cans of dog food randomly thrown into a very insubstantial cardboard box. 16 tins damaged. Tried online chatting. Sent me to examine contents then closed chat. Appalled is understating how I feel. Would be so unfair to blame carrier.

Swindon store still selling sick Bearded dragons from filthy vivariums even after they had been advised of a highly contagious parasite infection. The store manager is still ignoring the advice that was given in relation to cleaning out their vivarium.

We were hoping to buy tropical fish to re stock my wife's tank 24x12 x15 inch as its presently down to 2 x 3" swordtails and one x 2" platty, I asked for 6 x neons & 1 x cory catfish. She asked me for the litre capacity of the tank, I didn't know off the top of my head but gave her the tank size. She advised bluntly that without the litre capacity she could not serve me with any fish. I would have thought that anyone working in that area would be able to determine the volume from the size I gave, in fact I did it straight away on the Internet when I arrived home (its 70 litres).

Went into the parkhead retail park store and was denied a hamster by a very cheeky young male working there because I did not have a picture of the hamster cage that was at my property. Even tho me and my partner had explained that the kids hamster who we bought off them had died. No customer service skills at all and had no interest in helping only to get away from the conversation.

I used to like going to shop at Pets@home in Crayford but stopped going there regularly since their security guard has been terribly rude. He made me clean up the poop left by someone else’s dog as he assumed my dog did it, all because he saw my dog standing near the poop. I knew because my dog had just did a poop just before we went to the store (and it was of a different colour and texture). No apologies, no customer friendliness at all. Another time once my dog peed near the entrance, he didn’t hesitate to give me some paper roll to clean the pee, no please, no thank you, just an angry look. How did they hire such a staff I don’t know. I now prefer to shop elsewhere and other online stores.

I visit pet at home Chingford regularly, mostly on Saturday, I found one of staff at check out is racist. On one occasion, he overcharged me £6ish, when I went back to get refund, he made me waited for long time and asked another staff to deal with me. Today, about 11ish am when I was waiting to pay, he called a lady behind me to the till and deal with her before me. When I got to the till, I showed NHS card to get discount 10%, he said pet at home stop giving discount to NHS staff 2 weeks ago. IS IT TRUE PET AT HOME STOP GIVING DISCOUNT TO NHS STAFF???? I will never ever go back to pet at home chingford and as soon as my pet plan finish, I will also change a vet. Since I met this racist staff a few months ago, I went to shop on line and found one of German website a lot cheaper than pet at home.

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!
