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.
“I worked with Lissette on a house purchase and now on a house sale. No matter what she does, it is with the utmost care, diligence and a bright smile. If you are needing information, she is quick to gather and impart it. She is great in keeping the flow moving and the reminders coming. Lissette is a great realtor and I know she enjoys her work.”
“They were great! I love how they really seem to care about the dogs the sell and they helped me through the process the entire way. They always responded to my questions almost immediately.”
“Excellent! Smooth as silk. Terrific interaction and fast responses. Very pleased with the whole process with Pawrade! Thank you! The pup is more beautiful and adorable than the pics. He is a living doll! The Furry Trails Pet Transport was wonderful to work with also! Very reliable, interactive, timely and professional service!”

Kept us up to date and delivered ahead of schedule a beautiful clean and happy pup!! This completely took the worry out of being caught in one of the many scams out there.

“Our puppy is so sweet and beautiful”
“Bets transaction. Puppy as described and in Pawrade video. Transportation service was second to none. This is where puppies come from!”
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.”
“very good everything went well”
“The whole process has been great! I will recommend this to all my friends and family.”
“OMG OMG!! This was the best experience I've had in 67 years of buying dogs. I know many people relate groups like this to puppy mills, but in today's world...how else are breeders to get their names (and litters) out to the public? (It's their job to vet the breeders) I never would have known of a breeder in Ohio, and never would have found my new furry daughter all the way down here in Texas. Thank you all at Pawrade for making this so simple, quick, and she was here in less than 10 days from start to finish...and she was so clean when she arrived!! It was amazing.”
“Very pleased with the entire process. Everyone we talked to was very courteous, friendly and understanding when we asked questions. Will highly recommend to everyone. This includes the gentlemen who delivered our puppy during the night. The experience was way easier than expected, the entire process was easy, we would do it again a heartbeat.”
“Beautiful little puppy girl. Delivered in a safe and healthy manner. Full of energy. Very please to be able to love this little girl.”
“Just the best experience ever..from start to finish…I cannot tell you how much we appreciate everything you did. Our little girl, Quincy ( aka Helena) is just the most precious little Havapoo ever. We are thrilled to have her forever. She is adjusting well, already being spoilt as she is being held all the time! The delivery people..two delightful men, need an applause too. Very professional, organized, and delightful…they had Quincy on the passenger’ seat, just waiting to give her to us.. and she was so clean too after such a long trip. So, 100% to both of them..Wags on Wheel? One was Zane, I don't remember the other one’s name.. Your company is just the best..such a happy experience and we were kept abreast of everything as we were waiting for her. You all get an applause too👏👏👏👏👏 Many thanks for such an amazing experience and such a little treasure you have given us! Jeanie Willis”
“This was a great service--Pawrade makes sure the puppies come from good reputable breeders, and they make sure the puppies go to the right home. The travel service is outstanding, and puppy was delivered clean and relaxed considering her long journey. Exactly as photographed and my perfect new puppy!”
“Pawrade was exceptional. Great to work with and they brought me my new puppy with care.”
“Everybody was friendly and helpful”
“We purchased 2 great Cavapoo puppies from Pawrade. The reps were very helpful with excellent communication which made the transactions with the 2 breeders from different states very smooth: also their payment software was easy to work with. The puppies were delivered on time with extra food packets and a toy, which was great although we felt that delivery costs were high. Pawrade support continues alfer the sale, so looking forward to their continued support!”
“Everything went according to the plan all my anxiety waiting for puppy was well taken care of with a phone call . Best way to get your new best friend ever”
“We are over the moon happy with our puppy Archer! He is so adorable and fuzzy and gives the best snuggles/puppy love. Even though there was some confusion before we arrived, we understand that things happen. Thank you for our beautiful puppy, we love him!”
“My partner recently passed. There’s been a big hole in my life. I am an Italian American and my nickname is Dino. So when I saw him on your website, I was thinking that is exactly what I need in my life. I am initially starting to bond with Dino. It is a totally enjoyable experience for me. I cannot think your site enough for the kind detention and assistance that you have provided. God bless.”
“I am largely impressed by how Pawrade facilitated the purchase and transport of our puppy Kassidy. Pawrade met all our expectations. I cannot say that about the process, or relation to the breeder, with whom Pawrade might have a vetting relationship with. Prior to pickup for transport, the breeder obtained a veterinary certificate of health for our puppy. Per the contract, we have had the puppy examined by our local veterinary service within 72 hours, as required. We just completed that inspection, and were both pleased and disgruntled with the results. Pleased that the inspection revealed the cause of the foul order from the puppy, and dismayed to learn she has a bad case of ear mites. causing the odor. So, now have the additional cost of treating the mite infestation. Additionally we were instructed to purchase a specific brand of kibble to the dog. The sample provided by the pet transport upon delivery did NOT match what we were told to buy, which they said she had been eating.”
“I have to say, my experience with Pawrade was excellent. They are very organized and easy to get a hold of an actual person. We now have our new baby and she is doing well. Thank You Pawrade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
*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.
