“She is a joy to have. Thank you for all you have done.”
Pawrade Reviews: 19,144 verified customer reviews from real families
Real families, real puppies, real homecomings — collected after delivery from verified Pawrade customers. This is what happens when a puppy is examined by a licensed veterinarian before it travels, a named person walks you through every step, and the breeder is paid only once your puppy is home.

“Very helpful and caring. Great trusted website for finding you the pet you want.”
“During the whole process from the beginning to the end, everybody involved in us purchasing our puppy was wonderful and very informative. We had tons of questions since this was the first time getting the puppy this way, but there were no problems whatsoever. If anybody asks us to recommend an easy way to get a dog Pawrade would be definitely the one. Thank you again for getting our wonderful puppy to us right straight to our doorstep.”

“Was skeptical at first but the communication and process was really well done.”
“Every action/requirement required to complete the purchase process was handled with unprecedented professionalism, courtesy and dedication to ensure customer satisfaction. The delivery process was fantastic. The young men driving the van and careing for the puppy were awesome. They provided routine updates and arrival times throughout the day of delivery. Upon arrival they demonstrated true compassion for our puppy and were extremely courteous and professional. Overall, your team was flawless in every respect. JOB WELL DONE”
“Oh my gosh, you"ll are wonderful. My sweet puppy got here in great order. she is so sweet. Everyone that I spoke to went above and beyond to make sure that everything was done and met my expectations. I will recomend you in a heartbeat to anyone who is looking for a puppy.”
Every review is from a verified customer and posted as written. We read each one, reply when we can, and thank the families who keep sending us their puppy’s first-day photos.
Airport meets and doorstep deliveries, first nights home, Meet-a-Breeder interviews, Pawrade Live — every touchpoint of the process, told by the people who lived it.
“Communication” — because it’s never just you and a breeder.
You, the breeder, and your named Pawrade advocate — in every conversation, on every channel. Guiding, educating, and keeping the record. You are protected.
You, the breeder and your Concierge in one thread — every message logged.
Meet the breeder and the puppy live. Calls are recorded and kept on file.
A real person, daily 9AM–11PM EST. Calls are recorded and retained.
A strict health protocol is why “arrived healthy” shows up so often.
Pawrade pioneered proactive health care for newborn puppies — analysis, prevention and intervention before a puppy ever travels. No puppy leaves for a Pawrade family until a licensed veterinarian has examined it, and if anything needs attention, the trip waits. The puppy’s health comes before anyone’s calendar.
Vetted and signed to the No Puppy Mill Pledge before a single puppy is listed.
A full physical of the actual puppy — not the parents’ paperwork.
Recorded on the Veterinary Health Report and reviewed by our Health First team.
A positive fecal or a cough moves the date until the breeder’s vet resolves it. The sale stands; the puppy decides when.
Communicated before travel and uploaded to your PetPay account; a hard copy travels with the puppy.
3 years included, extendable to 10 — run by PetPay, not the breeder.
We prepare the family, not just the puppy.
A good placement is one that lasts. So the same team that screens breeders and reads the vet exam also teaches new owners what the first days, weeks and months look like — before the puppy arrives.
Supplies, first 72 hours, potty and crate basics — sent before arrival.
We ask every family to see their own vet within three days, and explain why.
Your named advocate answers the “is this normal?” questions, from reserve to the first weeks.
Parks, pet stores and clinic floors wait until vaccines are done — and we tell you so.
“They were in high communication — updates, checklists of supplies, and support through the full delivery process. Start to end I felt supported and clear.”
“Well, after just losing our Cane Corso girl to an undiagnosed, early death. I waited and I started looking at the same breed. Well, some how Britt's photo popped up after a few I was looking at was taken. So, I picked Britt thinking he was the same. Well he's not he's a British Mastiff and he eats like he's never seen food before. He's loves to walk around your feet and he's almost made us fall a few times. But, he's gonna be a big dog. He's got paws and feet that look huge. So, he's funny because he didn't now what stairs were and he's very curious about my cat. My other boy dog Angle had to put him in his place a few times. Trying to party train and getting him use too the cage for bed time is a challenge. He's beautiful and we love him he's part of the family and we have a big fenced in yard to explore.”
“Our new baby, is beautiful, healthy, social, and loving. She is everything described and in photos. The staff was nothing but kind and helpful.”
“Super happy with our puppy. So grateful to Pawrade, their help and reassurance during the process of #nopuppymill made this a great experience.”
“I have never purchased a puppy through a company, but this group of folks are awesome.. I always knew what was going on with my pup from purchase to Delivery..Highly recommend 5 stars”
“The customer service prior to picking up Gwen was wonderful. However, the statement about no puppy mills is a total line of crap! We picked up our dog from a completely filthy puppy mill! Although your staff tried to whitewash it away. I know a puppy mill and that was a puppy mill! I didn’t even bother sending my veterinarian information back to your company because I honestly didn’t feel as if it would matter that the dog was 13 pounds less than her advertised a month before we got her. So in essence she was advertised at 62 pounds and in the 3-4 weeks that I looked at her and that it took for us to get her she lost 13 pounds! No way. Just feel like we were scammed!”
“Easy process. Stress-free. So far, a healthy puppy.”
“Start to finish Pawrade was thorough. We are so in love with our new family member! It was very reassuring to deal with them with all of the scams out. And I love the health guarantee. Beginning with Tara helping negotiate finding a pup and location and all of the coordination and then Emily as well. Very responsive. I highly recommend going through Pawrade for a breeder”
“We had a good experience with Pawrade. They were very nice to deal with from beginning to end. We have an adorable puppy.”
“Loved the Van transport and they were good about getting back with me quickly whenever I had a question. Emma and Emily were great!”
“Very easy to navigate and the staff are absolutely incredible and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend and buy again in the future.”
“Pawrade is excellent. From the purchase of my new puppy to the delivery! Thank you again Pawrade for all that you do!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend Pawrade! If you are on the fence about using Pawrade, don't hesitate, you won't be disappointed! What initially sold me is their commitment to working exclusively with ethical and responsible breeders. From day one, their staff was incredibly attentive, supportive, and lightning-fast with answers. Their overall attention to detail is really what sets them apart. I was initially reluctant of using a delivery service and planned to fly to Virginia to pick up my Labrador puppy myself. However, the Pawrade team completely reassured me, promising white-glove treatment with regular stops for walks and feeding. They absolutely delivered on that promise. My puppy arrived safe, sound, and most importantly, incredibly happy and healthy. If you want total peace of mind when bringing your new companion home, Pawrade is the way to go!”
“Communication and delivery went well!”
“extremely well run, constant communication, puppy delivered on time and in great shape.”
“I appreciated how everything was handled. The first dog I chose wasn’t doing well and I received a call and the ability to choose another. I’m in love with my Paisley”
“The whole process went so smoothly and the staff was so helpful. So happy to have our guy home.”
*Reviews are syndicated weekly; we request reviews from real customers after they take delivery of their puppy. Also independently reviewed on Trustpilot.
Pawrade reviews: what customers say about finding a puppy here
Pawrade customer reviews are requested from every family after their puppy is delivered and published as written. Read enough of them and a pattern shows up: people write about the person they dealt with by name — Lois, Shannon, Jason, Tara — about drivers and flight nannies who sent photos along the way, and about a puppy that stepped out of the carrier healthy, ate, played and slept that first night. Many admit they were nervous about finding a puppy online; the reviews are largely the story of that nervousness turning into confidence.
Pawrade is also reviewed independently on Trustpilot, where it holds an Excellent rating from more than 7,500 reviewers — a second, third-party read on the same experience.
Why Pawrade reviews read the way they do
Happy homecomings are designed, not lucky. Every Pawrade breeder is screened and signed to the No Puppy Mill Pledge before a puppy is listed. Every puppy is examined by a licensed veterinarian before it travels, and the findings are shared with the family — Pawrade’s Puppy First Approach to proactive health care for newborn puppies. A named Customer Concierge stays with you from reservation to arrival, every message, call and video call is kept on record, and through PetPay the breeder isn’t paid out until your puppy is home.
Then comes the part most puppy sellers skip: preparing the family. The Puppy Guide, the 72-hour vet visit, and a concierge who answers “is this normal?” for the first weeks are why so many reviews mention feeling supported after the puppy arrived, not just before. See how our process works →
Lois, Shannon, Jason, Tara — the names families thank are the names you'll be calling. Daily 9AM – 11PM EST.
