A Thorough Explanation of the Petco Return Policy

Did you plan on treating your pet or getting another one at Petco? If you got faulty products or lost your new animal friend too soon, DoNotPay offers a complete guide to the Petco return policy so you can initiate a return request and get your money back!

The Basics of the Petco Return Policy

To receive a full refund for your faulty item, return it to Petco within 60 days of purchase. The company will refund you to the payment method you used during the purchase except for checks, which the company will refund using cash or a corporate check.

Returns without a receipt or after the 60-day deadline are possible, but you can only receive in-store credit as a refund. The credit will equal the item’s lowest selling price.

Petco Return Policy Exceptions

Check out these exceptions to the Petco return policy:

1. Prescription food
2. Prescription medicine and pharmacy products
3. Petco animals
4. Cali Vinyl Pet-Friendly Flooring

Petco’s Prescription Food Return Policy

You can’t return Petco prescription items in store—you must send them to the online distribution center instead:

Petco.com Returns

257 Prospect Plains Road, Ste. B

Cranbury, NJ 08512

You will get a refund as soon as the company receives your shipment.

Petco Return Policy—Prescription Medicine and Pharmacy Products

You can’t return prescription medicine in store or by mail.

Customer service will help you submit your return request—dial 1-877-738-6742, explain what’s wrong with the products, and provide the necessary information about your order.

Petco may issue refunds for damaged or incorrect prescriptions.

Petco Animal Return Policy

The company guarantees that your live fish and invertebrates will stay alive for at least 30 days from the day they arrive at your home.

You can return the freshwater fish you bought in store within 30 days of purchase with a receipt, and you will receive a full refund on the payment method you initially used.

You can’t return any live fish and invertebrates if there’s nothing wrong, but you don’t want them anymore.

The only way to initiate a return request is to call customer service at 1-877-738-6742 if you experience a loss of live fish or invertebrates you bought online. Customer service representatives will ask you for your order information and photographic evidence of your loss, which you should send via email.
