Wide Variety of Pet Products
Chewy Pet Store has made it easy for pet lovers and their furry friend to find the pet care and pet products they need. Chewy's prices on the site are also reasonably low, although, there are more expensive items, but are generally on the larger items or the items in bulk. Chewy.com offers a wide variety of quality products, including dry, wet and canned food, treats, bowls, health and wellness, toys, cleaning, potty training (cat litter, potty pads, etc.), grooming, beds, and pet food. So pet owners should have no problem finding grain-free dog treats or a holistic kitty litter. When selected, each category can be narrowed further by selecting a more specific sub-category, brands, life stage, breed, or material. This makes finding specific pet supplies fairly easy and browsing can be a more productive experience as well.
24/7 Customer Service
One of the best things about Chewy Pet Store is the customer service. The company puts its customers' needs first and Chewy Pet Store shows this through its shipping rates, speed, and return policy.
Chewy's shipping costs are notable in the online pet store industry. Any orders on Chewy Pet Store that are over $49 receive free one to two-day shipping. Any orders that are under $49 are given a flat shipping rate of $4.95. This low flat shipping rate is extremely helpful for customers who order heavy items such as dog food.
Chewy.com is known to have fast shipping. If the order is placed before 4 P.M., it will be shipped that same day and most customers report getting their products within 1-2 days of placing an order.
The company is also notorious for sending out handwritten notes with humourous pet puns, birthday cards, and some customers have even received a painting of their pet along with their order.
The Chewy Pet Store Return Policy
Chewy's return policy is also admirable. Offering a 100% satisfaction guarantee on ALL products sold. The company asks that the product(s) are unopened and in the original packaging it was shipped in, and Chewy Pet Store will give a full refund with no other questions asked for 365 days after the original purchase.

Pet owners should be aware that Chewy Pet Store does not accept returns or exchanges on pet products. However, the company will do an exchange if the product is incorrect or damaged. Chewy Pet Store may issue a refund but this is determined on a case-by-case basis.
Today's Deals
Pet owners looking for deals on their favorite brands for treats and pet foods should take a look at Chewy's daily deals. Customers don't need a Chewy Pet Store coupon, promo code or coupon code.
