“From the beginning of our Journey to find our two fur babies to the delivery date at our front door, we could not be happier with the service, staff and easy process Pawrade provided us! We loved having ALL our questions answered and the response time the Staff offered was amazing. We absolutely love the transport team that drove our babies over 2500 miles safely, securely and most important comfortably. The spoiled these two sweet girls the entire journey to get to their forever family and home. We also have High respect for the knowledge the breeder had about the best method of transport to SAFELY get them home. Our Breeder accommodated us with every ask! AMAZING!!! These two sweet babies have adjusted since day one in their new forever home. No travel distress or anxiety at all. We have already shared our experience with so many friends & family and encourage them to search for their forever baby and enjoy the non-stress pet process!! Dan, Lindsey Shannon THANK YOU!!”

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.”
“Delivery of our puppy was delayed because of bad weather, but she arrived safely and is beautiful, loving, and perfect. Our experience with Pawrade was very good. They were very responsive and helpful throughout the entire procesd.”
“What a wonderful puppy! Pawrade and their representatives were fantastic. I have a beautiful, sweet, smart, and very healthy Boxer. He came from an excellent breeder. Transport moved miracles to have my puppy arrive before a snowstorm….and they were stellar and very professional. You can trust Pawrade!!”
“Thanks for everything, easy smooth transaction.”
“The Pawrade customer service was excellent to a point. Staff was very communicative and helpful until the purchase of my dog was complete. After that I received a message with the date my dog would be picked up for delivery to me and then nothing more in terms of travel updates. Estimated delivery of a dog via ground transportation is 2-4 days with an exception for unforeseen events. I understood that. However, I received no information from Pawrade after my dog was picked up from the breeder. She arrived 7 days after pick up. With all the great communication that is provided during the purchase, I was surprised that Pawrade was not more helpful during the time I waited for my dog. My only option was to wait patiently for any information from the transport company which I received about 4 days after she was picked up. It may be policy that Pawrade ends communication after the dog's pick up date but as an expecting pet owner I would have appreciated something more from them.”
“The individuals of all the departments were all very helpful, however the process is very complicated as you have to talk to many different people about different parts of the process. The breeder and puppy are perfect though. ”
“I couldn't be more delighted with the Pawrade Team. They were focused, helping me find the perfect puppy to a safe and secure delivery. Even after my puppy was in my arms Pawrade was there to answer all my questions. Really can't say enough!”
“The process that the agency explained in order to get my pup was followed to the T . Every thing was perfect and the breeder happened to reside in Florida and we arranged to meet in a closer location. My pup is lovely and I would recommend Pawrade if you are looking for a new addition to your home. ”
“I was apprehensive buying apuppy online, but the nicest person at Pawrade walked me through the process. Everything went perfectly smooth😁and I couldn't be happier 🥳 thank you Miss Beth🙏🕊🕊”
“Pawrade is INCREDIBLE ! From our first email inquiry through welcoming Zeppelin home, they were prompt, supportive and put as much love into this puppy as we will. Could not be happier with our experience!”
“Through Pawrade I was able to find the most beautiful Bernedoodle. Their service, coordination and communication has been excellent throughout the process. I would highly recommend Pawrade~”
“After being a victim of a puppy scam I was reluctant to give pawrade a chance. I am so glad I did. This has been the best experience. Well worth the money...my puppy libby is so cute. Playful happy ever since she came in the door. Thank you so much 💓 ”
“We absolutely adore our new baby but I must say we were very disappointed at pick up as she was very dirty and smelled terrible and we had to drive 6 hours home with her in that condition. But we got her home and bathed her immediately and she's a happy girl! ”
“Thank you to all. It was a great experience and it went smoothly. Everyone I spoke to put me at ease. And was able to answer all my questions. I was kept up to date during Shadow's travels. I thank you from the bottom of my heart ”
“Our sales (Janell), transportation (Renee), and post-sales (Lois) liaisons all provided expert, friendly, patient, and responsive customer service. Why not 5 stars? Customers pay a premium for the dog and the air-nanny service. ”
“Everything went well, on time with the distance and weather we had.brodie is well 😊”

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.
