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.

Get a better logistics company!!!!

Unfortunately any possible positive experience with this company is completely spoilt by the fact that the use the worst possible logistics company in Ireland to deliver the product so it never reaches their customers or only does so after angry phone calls and fights

Many late deliveries

I had a repeat subscription. They ship dos food the day before your next delivery date despite the fact they know deliveries might take up to 6 working days to arrive.
When you complain they send your a screenshot showing delivery times and do not accept it was their mistake.
How i have to find another dog food brand that won't cause issues to my dog.
I was buying with them because I couldn't find the brand where I live.

Hi Livia,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m very sorry to hear about the difficulties you've experienced with your subscription order and the impact it’s had on your dog’s diet — that’s understandably upsetting.

Some of our initial replies are generated by an AI system, designed to offer quick answers to common queries and save you time. I wonder if this may have contributed to the impression that your concerns weren’t being properly addressed. If the automated response doesn’t resolve your issue, replying to it will escalate your case to a human advisor who can assist you directly — and we’re always happy to help.

Regarding the timings, that the shipping date refers to when your parcel leaves our warehouse, not the date it will be delivered. Delivery can take several working days depending on the courier and destination. You can find more details about our delivery timelines here: https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/solutions/articles/76000046414-when-will-my-parcel-be-dispatched-

We’d really appreciate the opportunity to look into this further and provide full assistance. If you’re willing, please contact our support team directly via https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/tickets/new, and mention your Trustpilot review so we can prioritise your case.

Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us improve, and we’re genuinely sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Excellent company

We've used this company twice now for the big bags of cat food. The service has been excellent, delivery has been very smooth and it's excellent quality and value for money. I highly recommend and will continue using this company.

Delivery service is very slow.
Ordered on 7/7/25 and still haven't received goods.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback with us, and sincere apologies for the delay in responding here.

I do hope your delivery has since arrived safely. If not, as we’re unable to assist directly via Trustpilot due to privacy and security reasons, may I kindly ask you to contact our customer support team here: https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/tickets/new.

I’m very sorry for any delay you may have experienced. Most orders are typically processed and dispatched from our EU warehouse within 24 hours. However, actual delivery times can vary depending on your location, the courier service, and the weight of the parcel. You can find more details about dispatch and delivery times here: https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/solutions/articles/76000046414-when-will-my-parcel-be-dispatched-.

We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we hope this helps clarify the delivery process. If you haven’t already, we do recommend reaching out to our support team for tracking updates or further assistance.

LIES

I received an email stating that my parcel had been delivered..... no parcel has been delivered! I can confirm this with my video doorbell as the courier said it had been delivered at 1448hrs! No one even approached my door! I have emailed customer services and yet to receive a reply. Avoid this company!

Hi Gavin,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and I’m truly sorry to hear about the confusion and frustration regarding your delivery. Please, forgive us for the slow acknowledgement here too.

If your parcel was marked as delivered at 14:48 but no one approached your door—as confirmed by your video doorbell—that’s understandably concerning. I appreciate you’ve already contacted customer services, and I’m sorry you’ve not yet received a reply. That is indeed surprising because we do respond to all our queries.

For privacy and security reasons, we’re unable to assist directly via this platform. Please, if I can ask you to very kindly use the form here https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/tickets/new. Please include your order number and any relevant details, such as the video doorbell footage timestamp, to help us investigate further.

We take delivery issues seriously and will do our best to resolve this promptly once we have the necessary information.

Thank you very much in advance for your help.

I have been ordering from Zooplus.ie…

I have been ordering from Zooplus.ie for some time now & have found them to have a wide product range which is good value for money. It is nice to be able to have items delivered to my door especially bulky items. On occasions where something has gone wrong concerning say something missing in my parcel or a broken item etc Zooplus are swift to remedy the situation so I have no hesitation in recommending them.

I'm a customer over 5 years now and iv been monitoring the price of my dogs food the last few months Hills Z/D. The price has increased its gone from €95.25 in March to a increased price each month since then, today I went on its €110 in May it was €103 & €106 in June. I understand sometimes company's have to increase cost due to a number of reason but not every month that's not right or fair on customers. I don't understand why the price is going up monthly, I will have to reconsider getting the food else were that offers it at the same price monthly rather the increasing the price every week or so.

Rotten Cat cream treats delivered!!!!!

I placed my first order with Zooplus hoping for a reliable experience, it was the opposite. I fed my cats some of the treats I received, only to discover the cream inside the tube was rotten after I opened it further.
It's incredibly upsetting to think my cat was exposed to spoiled food Rotten green on the inside. When I contacted customer service, I received vague, impersonal replies and no real support or accountability. They said they cannot help if I dont have the batch number and I recieved a reply 4 days after submiting a ticket where it says we will receive an answer in 24 hours.

This was not only disappointing but also concerning from a safety standpoint. I expected better quality control and care from a company that claims to prioritize animal wellbeing. Disappointing, frustrating.

Hi Hala,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I’m truly sorry to hear about what happened with the treats you received.

We completely understand how distressing it must have been to discover spoiled food—I can assure you that health and safety are at the top of our priorities and the quality of the products we sell on our website always meets those requirements.

While we do request batch numbers to investigate quality issues thoroughly with our suppliers, this should never come at the expense of timely and compassionate support. I’m sorry that the response you received felt vague and delayed. We aim to respond within 24 hours, and I regret that we fell short in your case.

Your feedback has been shared with our quality and customer care teams so we can review how we handle such reports and ensure better follow-up in the future. If you’re open to it, we’d really like the opportunity to make this right. Please reach out again via https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/tickets/new and mention your Trustpilot review so we can prioritise your case.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention—we’re committed to doing better.

.IE Not Ireland

Their .ie site is not located in Ireland which is extremely misleading and causes postal delays. However all but two of the items were perfect. The nylobone was very small and the chuck it ball was not what I was expecting.

Hi KPoe,

Thank you for your feedback, and I’m glad to hear that most of your order met expectations.

To clarify your concern about the website: while zooplus.ie is our dedicated site for customers in Ireland, our operational and fulfilment centres may be located outside of Ireland. This allows us to offer a wider range of products and competitive pricing, though we understand it can sometimes cause confusion.

I’m sorry to hear that the Nylabone and Chuckit! ball didn’t meet your expectations. If the items were significantly different from what was described or unsuitable for your pet, our customer service team would be happy to look into this further for you.

As we’re unable to assist with individual orders via Trustpilot due to privacy and data protection regulations, please feel free to contact our support team directly at https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/tickets/new. Including a reference to your Trustpilot review will help us cross-reference and prioritise your case.

Thank you again for your feedback—it helps us continue to improve both our service and product selection.

Long delivery time and poor customer experience

Got hooked on the cheaper price but takes way too long to deliver to Ireland, c2 weeks at best. Followed up with customer service and all they could say that order had been dispatched, sit tight and wait. Lesson learned to stay well away

Hi Jim,

Thank you for sharing your experience — I completely understand how frustrating it must be to wait that long for a delivery, especially when expectations were not met and the follow-up left you feeling unsupported.

While we aim to offer competitive prices, we also strive to be transparent about delivery times. For orders placed on zooplus.ie, standard delivery to the Republic of Ireland can take several working days depending on the order type and location. In some cases, particularly for heavier or bulkier items, delivery may take longer — and we sincerely regret if this wasn’t clearly communicated or if your experience fell short of this timeframe. You can find more information here https://support.zooplus.ie/en/support/solutions/articles/76000046414-when-will-my-parcel-be-dispatched-#:~:text=When%20will%20my%20parcel%20be%20dispatched%3F

Although we do not manage deliveries directly, we work closely with our delivery partners to ensure orders are fulfilled reliably. When issues arise, we rely on their updates and do our best to liaise with them on your behalf to resolve matters swiftly.

As we’re unable to assist with individual cases via Trustpilot for privacy and security reasons, we kindly ask that you contact us directly through the details provided on our website: https://www.zooplus.ie/contact. This will allow us to look into your case thoroughly and offer the best possible support. Please, if you could mention your Trustpilot review so that our support team can look at your query with the expected priority, that would be great.

Thank you again for your feedback — we hope to have the opportunity to restore your confidence in our service.

Delivery times way too long. Avoid

Used Zooplus for around 5 years. They used to use DPD so generally good delivery times. I have 9 rescue cats so I really need the delivery to come within a week like it used to. I’ve emailed using their customer support form and they’re always too busy to respond. 3 times now over past 2 years. The prices are competitive but I have to spend extra on emergency food when the delivery’s are taking 2 weeks or unknown timescales- doesn’t match their 3-6 days for sure. I also had to pay €9.98 for the privilege of delivery as it was a bulk order of €370. I’ve so far had less than half the order in 2 weeks. It’s become shambolic since they changed delivery partners. The local man in his van (subcontracted) is lovely but not much he can do when goods take so long to arrive in the country.

Hi Gerry,

Thank you for sharing your experience, and for being a long-standing customer — I truly appreciate your loyalty and am very sorry to hear about the recent difficulties you've encountered.

We understand how important timely deliveries are, especially when caring for numerous rescue cats. While we aim to dispatch all orders as quickly as possible, dispatches to Ireland typically take between 3–6 working days. However, depending on the size and weight of the order — particularly bulk orders — delivery may be split into multiple parcels and take longer to arrive.

I am, however, very sorry to hear that your attempts to reach us via the contact form haven’t received a timely response. That is very surprising indeed and we’ll be reviewing this internally to ensure improvements are made.

While we do not manage deliveries directly, we work closely with our delivery partners and rely on their updates to track and resolve issues. We will continue to liaise with them to ensure your concerns are addressed and to help prevent similar delays in the future.

As we’re unable to assist with individual cases via Trustpilot for privacy and security reasons, we kindly ask that you contact us directly through the details provided on our website: https://www.zooplus.ie/contact. Please mention your Trustpilot review when doing so, so we can prioritise your case and provide the best possible support.

Avoid at ALL COSTS

Avoid at ALL COSTS. I was a loyal customer for 5 years, they lost a huge package of cat food and other things to the tune of 320 euro, food I ordered in bulk because I was having an operation, then I had to chase and chase for more than a month, asked for a replacement and abruptly got a refund… AND they tried to sell me on the convenience of setting up automatic orders in the SAME EMAIL as saying they wouldn’t give me replacements and had totally taken too long to review!

Absolutely useless

Absolutely useless. I have a large order every 4 weeks on repeat for 9 cats. The order either gets lost, arrives damaged or is so late I have to go elsewhere to get more feed/litter. The latest saga the order appears to have gone missing again, I have cancelled my repeat order and will shop elsewhere. Avoid like the plague.

Severe Delivery Delays - Poor customer service

Severe delays in trying to get my order delivered. Eventually ZooPlus requested to have the parcel returned to themselves, without trying to get the parcel delivered to me. Very poor customer service. No replacement order shipped. Will not be using them again.
