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.
“There were multiple delays in getting Lola to me. Some could not be avoided, but others could have. Communication was very poor. No one kept me advised as to what was going on and I could not reach people on the phone. There's also not enough communication between the adoption crew and the transport Lola did arrive finally and appears to be in good health. She Is not the calm pup I was told she is. She is not trained as all. She won't sit, stay or walk on a leash. You should not promise things you cannot deliver. She is a sweet pup and seems to be socialized. I will give her a good home and lots of love. ”
“Stu named has been changed to Vladimir or Vladdy !! He is remarkable. Pawrade has been so professional and helpful. Everyone who I have communicated has been wonderful. The delivery of the Puppy was so remarkable. the Delivery couple was so qualified . Vladdy was clean, with zero stress !! Greatest Puppy in the World. Pawrade is an excellent service !!”
“They worked very hard to make the transition pleasant and as smooth as possible. I don't like that you can't know who the breeder is or anything about them. Also don't like that I had to take possession of my puppy in a Walgreens parking lot. But puppy is great, healthy and happy. ”
“Very grateful for a trustworthy website that helped us find our perfect pup! Everyone has been super helpful and checks in on you multiple times to make sure the transition goes as smoothly as possible. ”

“Very happy for the most part;however, the nanny should not have brought ynd puppy through Tampa Airport which is 2 1/2 away when Ft Myers Airport is 30 minutes. The puppy even got car sick. He stayed it was CHEAPER. Not right when we paid a considerable price for travel. ”
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.”
“Pawrade is one of the best ways I have found to find a pet! The process went incredibly smoothly. Pawrade was so wonderful in helping me find my furry companion, that I can't help praising them for their assistance. My concierge, TJ, was exceptional in his customer service...and I cannot say enough about him! He was AWESOME! I'm so happy to have found my Bernedoodle, Romeo. Y'all are GREAT!”
“The process was faster than expected. The staff was quite helpful through the process. Thanks for our fur-buddy!!”
“I got two pugs I can't express enough how lovey this company is!!!! We had a previous encounter with a thief I was concerned but after the reviews I had hope!!! My sweet stinkers are here as promised dates etc the driver was a sweetheart the whole staff was amazing ”
“Overall good. The dog is here and he seems healthy and ate a little bit. He did have some diarrhea. He's going to the vet tomorrow for his checkup. I also have his paperwork, so that's good. ”
“We love our girl! The process was easy and Pawrade was very communicative.”
“Purchased an absolutely beautiful English Golden Retriever puppy off pawrade and couldn't be happier. They were there every step of the way as purchasing a puppy online can be nerve wracking! Answered all my questions and were there whenever I had additional questions. Very responsive and let's not forget very thorough with the breeders they use, and the health of the puppies. Would definitely recommend! Thank you again!! ”
“Puppy arrived at 2am and the transport couple were so kind.The only issue was the timing but I understand because they do travel all over delivering puppies.Puppy is happy and one active little girl.”
“We are very pleased with our new Cavachon puppy Scout. He is adorable, healthy and gets along well with my 2 other dogs. My children are in love with him, he is calm and playful... he is the perfect puppy. Thank you Pawrade for giving us such joy and making the purchase and delivery process easy.”
“THANK YOU! Hulk is settling in absolutely amazingly, he such a good boy! He's smart, handsome and full of love. We lost our first Golden one year ago and our lives haven't quite been the same without him. Hulk is helping us mend our hearts and has already brought so much love and companionship back to our family. We are so lucky to have not only have Hulk but his brother Bud is only a few blocks away with my daughter. We find so much enjoyment in watching them play together. Thank for being so caring and supportive through our process and providing us the comfort to know we were making the best decision for our family. ”
“She is an adorable puppy and we love her already! Thank you!”
“TJ was amazing! Everyone else who assisted was great too. Great communication and the process was so easy. Thank you Pawrade! I love my new fur baby! ”
“Quick response when I contacted them. I wish I could have gotten breeder contact info sooner than 2 days out. Hard to schedule. My furbaby is awesome and is fitting in well. Such a joy.”
“Thanks for the puppy, he changed my life for good”
“From Start to finish the process was so easy. We finally found a site that we could trust finding a puppy that was not a scam and that we didn't have to worry about their health or the breeder. We will be using Pawrade for our puppy buys in the future, we highly recommend this!”
“I absolutely love my little shihpoo Doll. ❤️ The representatives I communicated with throughout the process were so sweet and very responsive when I had a question or concern. These young ladies do an excellent job!!!!! Thank you. ”
“Bought 2 puppies from Pawrade, 1st time on line was a great experience”
“We couldn't be happier with our puppy purchase through Pawrade. The process was easy and went smoothly. We received a beautiful, healthy, Sheepadoodle with the sweetest disposition. She came groomed and vaccinated and is very easy to train.”
*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.
