Great shopping experience and will be back soon!

Rip off
I saw that the price of dogfood was too expensive compared to the food sold at the pet aisle at woolwoorths or coles so i asked the staff for the reason and he told me that the reason for this was that the brands at woolworths were cheap and at petbarn they focus on selling top of the range products. I initially thought that was a reasonable response untill i saw the exact same brands that are available at local supermarkets like the ones mentioned earlier being sold at nearly twice the price at petbarn. This is ludacris.

Very happy customer
I purchased a WAHL dog grooming shaver kit 6 months ago. Despite being showed how to use the shaver by PetBarn staff, watching You Tube and a professional dog groomer, the shaver did not groom my dog as I expected. Feeling somewhat embarrassed, I attended PetBarn at Doncaster this morning to return the dog grooming kit and ask for a full refund. I have nothing but praise for Cassie, who indicated it wasn't a problem, and refunded the full amount to my credit card. Thank you!

There was no notice at the STORE & ONLINE : Bag contents are sold incorrectly!
Bag contents are sold incorrectly!
I bought FINE sand, but only COARSE sand.

*So Phresh Clay Clumping Cat Litter is "FINE".
*So Phresh Multi-Cat Clay Clumping Cat Litter is "COARSE".

No one tells me before I buy.
There was no notice at the store, also online too.
Of course, the store manager also knew.

Slow postage, zero communication.
Placed an online order with Petbarn. Took three days before they shipped, and 7 days for it to arrive. Bit baffled since there is a pet barn 10 minutes away from my house. Had to reach out to Pet Barn to follow up on the shipping (still yet to receive a response), and followed them up again to follow up on the actual delivery since the entire process took so long - and the delayed shipping meant my dogs didn’t have food before the weekend. Another attempted reach out to Pet Barn with zero response.
Slow postage, zero customer service, ignores enquires. Would not recommend - plenty of other online retailers who sell products cheaper, post faster, and actually respond to their paying customers.

If you would like to provide me with your order number, I would be happy to get in contact with you regarding this service and ensure your emails are responded to. The Petbarn team.While I can appreciate slower postage/freight, what I don’t find acceptable is three days to actually ship the product from your warehouse, and I also don’t accept the lack of communication or respons...

es to my enquiries. I have since received one response to the enquiries I have sent - which took over a week. Order number is 501087376. Petbarn need to be more proactive and process/ship their orders faster - otherwise don’t offer the service at all.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Miss Jemima’s favourite shop
Although shopping can become a chore for me, Miss Jemima loves every opportunity to assist in the purchase of any pet product that we need. PetBarn has lots of really interesting smells in every nook and cranny of the store - making it such a fun trip out. On top of that, there’s lots of pats and opportunities to kiss every staff member - and, if she’s very good and sits nicely, she’ll be given (lots of) treats. Then, I don’t feel like shopping was a chore, but it was a happy little excursion with my favourite fur-baby. I always leave smiling.

The staff are friendly and knowledgeable
The customer service received at this store was excellent. The groomer explained the options available to me and suggested the best option to suit my dog. I had a question about a product and the sales assistant knew about the product and recommended the most suitable for my dog.

Petbarn is the best
The staff are very friendly, knowledgable and passionate about pets. Whenever I have a question, they reply with total confidence and you know that you're in good hands. My cat needed new food because she was continaully getting sick, they showed me Royal Canin Digestive for cats and my cat is so much happier. When I purchased an Axolotyl, they were able to point me in the right direction so I could buy the right stuff.

Friendly staff, with great knowledge of products in store
I went in with not knowing what I was really needed in terms of best cat litter for my cat. Staff were very helpfully and had a good knowledge of what each product does, which helped me make my mind up of what I needed :)

Great Staff Make A Great Store
It's so nice to feel valued, and that your pet's needs are just as important to the staff member, as they are to you. I walked out feeling that I got the best product for my pet, and that my decision was based on the quality of information I received, not solely the price.

Groomers at Browns Plains PetBarn
Very bad experience at the groomers at Pet Barn Browns Plains. I had my dog, a long haired German shepherd booked in for grooming last year at this salon only to have the appointment cancelled at the last minute due to illness. Which does happen and I accepted this but am still waiting the phone call to rebook even thought I left a message on the phone later in the week. Recently when my friend wanted to take her German Shepherd to the groomers . I decided to give them another go, made the booking for both even thought I had to call twice to g...Read more
et hold of them despite leaving a message to call back which again did not happen. On the day to the appointment was called to cancel again due to illness. I must admit I did mention that I was not happy as this had happened previously but at least this time they were rebooking straight away instead of waiting for a return call that does not come. She did offer a 20% discount. Took them both in yesterday at 1000 which was the time I was told was the new appointment. The groomer at the counter was very rude and complained that we were supposed to drop them off at 0830. I then explained that it wanted my dog to be clipped between his back legs as it gets matted. Also mentioned that he as a bit reactive to other dogs and would play up it he was groomed with my friends dog as he would want to play and that he did not like heights so would not cooperate if put on the table. Apparently did not listen to me at all. When we went to pick them up were advised that we should not bring them again as he jumped around on the table. I told her this would happen if they did what they put him on the table a groomed him with the other dog. And to make matters worse they charged double what was original quoted with no calls or messages about costing more or even looking at him at the beginning and confirming a price then. I accept that his coat was very thick but double the price seems extreme. And when inspecting him they had completely clipped of his feathers on his front legs and the trimming on the back is very rough. At least I could not find any injuries on him unlike my friend’s dog. We complained to one of the staff at the counter and she was very helpful, took our details and said that she would pass on the manager on the Sunday and she would get the manager to call. Well it is now Sunday night and have not received a phone. The customer service at this store appears to be very hit and miss and the groomer was very rude1 comment

Great service, very friendly helpful staff
I regularly shop at Pet Barn Noosville and the staff are always friendly, helpful and make me feel welcome. I love that you can take your pet with you when you go shopping, although I don't take mine because he's a bit of a boofhead!

Does everyone who uses petbarn grooming know that they offer 100% satisfaction guarantee! If you're not happy with the service full refund!
Do you ask if the groomers are qualified and if yes how? Do you ask to see certificates or diplomas?
Or do you take their word on it!
4 answers
I have never asked about any certificates
Didn't know you have to have a diploma to be nice to the animal
And never had any refund, groomer didn't want to release my dog because he didn't finish his job
My dog was suffering and I wanted to go and never home back
Now that's a great question. I took my nearly 8 mths old maltese/shitzhu/ cattle breed puppy in for a full groom
The lady asked if my puppy had any skin condition. I said "yes,my vet said she has skin infection& taking tablets for It'.She quickly replied," the tablets won't work,it will only relieve her itching, we're groomers,so we know.she also said " so what do you feed your dog,?".I said "dog food" She went on & on about the different brands of dog foods&said humans & other brands of dog foods are "POISON " She lifted my puppy up& said," ohhh her belly is swollen& she is covered in yeast.I was like,: Hello,are you a vet?"I was lost for words.She was very rude& intimidating, but i never took her seriously I just won't go back to Pet Barn at Hoxton Park rd again.I didn't see her name tag,but I remember her face.Does she have " proper" training in pet food/ nutrition for pets,or diagnosing pets/ dogs condition?I really doubt that..You DO NOT say anything about a pet that you don't know anything about.BTW,I was at the vet the day before I took my puppy in for a groom.It was a VERY bad poor,rude,disrespectful first time( and last time) at PetBarn( Hoxton Park rd)
.If you are that groomer on the day- you need to read this& learn how to treat your customers with respect & please don't act like you know everything.You're not a VET you're only a Pet Groomer.Show me your VET Certificate then i might take you more seriously .
Funnily enough most groomers and retail staff in the pet industry are far more knowledgeable on dog nutrition than most vets, the majority of vets simply acting as puppets to major corporations and pet food companies such as Hills, Royal Canine etc. that fund ‘nutrition training’ at vet school. The groomer is correct is stating that the medication will not alleviate the issue nor stop it from reoccurring as vets do not work in preventative medicine nor natural medicine but more so look to quick fixes such as drugs etc. Diet has a MAJOR impact on skin health in dogs, any skin condition is best treated from the inside out through diet more so than a band-aid solution like medications and creams. Dog food is your first problem, almost all dog foods are full of starches and fillers which feed cause and feed infections such as yeast. Dogs fed a species appropriate, balanced raw diet will not suffer from these modern ailments seen in dogs such as skin issues, digestion problems etc.
Vets are simply interested in selling you whichever food they get a kick-back from (Hills, RC, Advance), the same brand that most likely funded their university units on ‘nutrition’, and providing a quick fix it solution whether that be drugs, creams, surgeries etc. rather than approaching pet care in a more holistic manner and working to prevent such illnesses rather than simply treat them with modern medicine. This information has been provided to you be an extremely knowledgeable dog groomer who knows more on dog nutrition that most vets in the country, you’re welcome...
