Unbelievably unprofessional
Unbelievably unprofessional. Staff was rude and not polite at all. Tropical fish rarely come healthy and usually die in the first week after buying.

Maxi Zoo offers delivery within one to three days, as advertised on all websites. Unfortunately, I've ordered several times and the package never arrived on time. There was always a delivery problem, and the blame was placed on DPD.
DPD explains that they never receive full customer contact information. Overall, a negative experience.

Dear Dariusz,
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about the repeated delivery issues you’ve experienced.
We understand how frustrating it is when expectations around delivery aren’t met. While we do advertise delivery within 1–3 working days, recent technical issues and a surge in orders have unfortunately led to delays in some cases. We're actively working with DPD to resolve these problems, including the matter of incomplete contact details being forwarded — which we believed had been fixed, but clearly still needs attention.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused. We’re committed to improving both our internal systems and our communication with delivery partners to ensure a smoother experience going forward.
If you’re still waiting on a specific order or would like us to look into it further, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer care team directly. We’d be happy to assist.
Kind regards,
Martin

Take money but online ordering g shambolic
Ordered Medica dog food x 36 tins at €95. Week has gone past emailed both emails available including customer care. Status of package online is ‘unknown’ but money left my account in under 5 seconds. They blame fluctuating stock and various IT ailments but that’s been going on for 3 years.

Dear Gerry,
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you've experienced with your recent order.
We understand how frustrating it is when an order is delayed and communication feels unclear. The issue you’ve described may be related to a recent surge in orders following our promotions, which unfortunately led to longer processing times than usual. We're actively working to improve both our systems and stock management to prevent such delays.
We’d really like to help resolve this for you and ensure you receive your order or refund as quickly as possible. However, we weren’t able to locate your order based on the name used in your review. To assist you further, please contact our customer service team at online-shopping@maxizoo.ie with your order number and any relevant details.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your patience and hope to make things right.
Kind regards,

Maxi Zoo does not deliver as promised
Maxi Zoo has a banner that states "1-3 Days Delivery". Additionally, they have a whole article page with the title "1-3 Days Delivery" (located at the bottom of the page, under "Perks".
Now, the last order I made did not reach me during that timeframe. Ok, it happens. Now, it has been 3 working days, and the support email told me to wait 2 more days for the tracking number. The order is still being processed.
I understand delays, but this is not the first time. I order at the exact same time from another pet store (Fetchyourpetneeds), and the order will be delivered today with DPD as well. This one, is still yet to be sent and processed.
Really negative experience again, so I will order from another store in the future. I would advise anyone looking for alternatives as well.

Dear Pedro,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience and disappointment caused by the delay in your recent order.
We understand how frustrating it is when expectations around delivery times are not met, especially when our website advertises a 1–3 working day delivery window. Your order was placed late in the evening on 27th October and is still being processed, which is clearly not in line with the service we aim to provide.
Please know that we are actively working to improve our logistics and fulfilment processes, particularly during periods of high demand. While delays can occasionally occur, we recognise that this is not the first time you've experienced such an issue, and we deeply regret the negative impact this has had on your trust in us.
We truly value your feedback and loyalty, and we are committed to making things right. If you would be open to it, we’d love the opportunity to follow up with you directly and offer a gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience caused.
Thank you again for your honest review — it helps us improve and better serve our customers.

Customer service
I had €50 MAX ZOO gift. On Aug 20th I wanted to use in shop but there was an issue with system and would not allow me to use the card. On October 18th I tried to use this card again and at the same shop and was told it is empty. I was advised to contact the customer service as at the shop they are not able to help me. I reached out to customer service and I asked for transactions history for the gift card I was told to go to the shop as they will be able to assist. €50 disappeared from the card and no one is able to help me. This is a joke and pure example of poor customer service. I will never again buy gifts cards at this shop and I will advise the same to everyone!

I made an order online for premium cat litter, there was a deal, saved a few quid. A week later it was canceled with the excuse it was not in stock and didn't know when it would be back in. I went into the store a day later and bought the same stuff I ordered, now with no discount. So you either couldn't be arsed doing the order or you didnt want to give the discount. Liars all of you. If you don't want to honor online orders, don't do online orders.

Dear Trace,
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m truly sorry for the frustration and disappointment caused by your recent experience.
Due to a technical issue, some products appeared as available on our website when they were in fact out of stock. This unfortunately led to delays in processing and the cancellation of certain orders. I understand how frustrating this must have been, especially when you were able to purchase the same item in-store shortly after.
Please note that our online shop and physical stores are managed separately, which can sometimes result in differences in stock availability and pricing.
We’d really like the opportunity to make this right. If you get in touch with our customer service team at online-shopping@maxizoo.ie, we’d be happy to look into a suitable compensation for the inconvenience.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Ana is a great groomer
Recently switched to maxi zoo groomers at Finglas brought my 11yr old doggie to Ana. Couldn't recommend Ana enough she was so lovely and caring and also done a great job of the groom. I love the way the place isn't overrun with dogs sitting in crates crying, barking and been uncomfortable it's an extremely calm environment and the difference in my dog when I collected him compared to when I normally collect him from our previous groomers. He was calm and happy and looked like he had a great time. Will be booking Ana for all 4 of my dogs grooms from now on. 100% positive experience. Website is a bit of a nightmare with way too many choices and it's confusing to navigate so maybe just phone them or pop in if you're looking to book that's what I done.

Online Ordering and stock levels
Items out of stock messages a few days after ordering. This has happened to me on a few occasions now and just again to my wife who ordered from you last week and I can see from other reviews, other people have the same issue.
Understand that issues do occur, but difficult to understand with current stock control systems how it's this bad.
Trouble is also, that the refund takes a long time to go back to you account and you need to keep checking it to ensure you got it.
Sorry, but it's a bit of a messy process to be honest and it ends up wasting peoples time.

Dear Darren,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we’re truly sorry for the inconvenience and frustration caused.
You’re absolutely right to expect accurate stock information and timely communication. Unfortunately, due to a recent surge in orders and a technical issue affecting our stock synchronisation, some items were incorrectly shown as available when they were already out of stock. We understand how disappointing this is and are actively working to improve our systems to prevent this from happening again.
We also recognise that waiting for a refund adds to the frustration, and we’re reviewing our processes to ensure refunds are issued more promptly and transparently.
We’d love the opportunity to make this right. If you’re open to it, please contact our customer service team at online-shopping@maxizoo.ie — we’d be happy to offer you either a €10 voucher or a 15% discount on your next order as a small gesture of goodwill.
Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us improve and better serve our customers.

Refused to honor Discount
I have been buying dog food from Maxi Zoo online for years! On 2nd October, I received a promotional email from them offering a 15% discount that day only! I needed dog food so ordered some and used the discount code! On 6th October, they cancelled my order saying that the dog food was out of stock with no restock date! I went straight onto their website and it was clearly available and in stock!
I emailed them and got a generic reply! When I emailed them again to point out how rubbish their response was, they took another two days and sent me another generic reply!
I'll be shopping elsewhere from now on!

Dear Mark,
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the frustration caused by the cancellation of your order and the communication that followed.
We understand how disappointing it was to miss out on the promotional discount, especially when the product appeared to still be available online.
Unfortunately, due to a technical issue affecting our stock synchronisation, some items were incorrectly shown as available when they were already out of stock. We sincerely apologise for the confusion and inconvenience this caused.
As mentioned in our recent email, we’d like to offer you a €20 voucher as a gesture of goodwill, which you can use on your next online order. We hope this helps to make up for the experience and that you’ll consider giving us another chance.

Bad experience
I've used this groomer before and was always pleased. The groomer was lovely and chatty and interested in the dog and his needs. I left him there last week and after a dispute with a different groomer who was very opinionated i left having giving the groomer my instructions.
When i brought the dog home having paid 65 euros for the groom I saw that my poor little dog had cuts and scratches all over his hind legs and was in pain. We are using a antiseptic cream to soothe him and hopefully we won't need a vet visit.
I won't be returning to Maxi Zoo again as I would be afraid to leave my dog in their care.

First time customer
Ordered online for the first time as thought my order was coming from Ireland in hope of fast delivery- it actually comes from Europe. I ordered on Sunday and it said 1-3 days delivery. My status never changed until day 4 where it said shipped and then I got my DPD notice about an hour ahead of delivery that day. So I got my order on day 4, very happy with dog food and great price! Communication could be better. I rang the Cork phone number provided for customer services (between 12 and 4pm) and got no answer. I filled in an online form on day 3 and also got no reply.
Overall, great goods, will order from them again.
