Shipping & Returns
COVID-19 ANNOUNCEMENT:
As our company continues to adjust to the recent pandemic, Privé Pet is committed to making the safety of our employees and customers a top priority. As we fulfill orders and process returns at our warehouse, we are employing increased safety precautions and are doing everything we can to get your orders and refunds to you as quickly as possible.
That said, due to the impact of COVID-19 on our fulfillment center, as well as on shipping carriers nationwide, we anticipate that both order and return processing may take longer than usual. We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding during these trying times.

WHAT IS YOUR RETURN POLICY?
GROOMING & WELLNESS
To be eligible for a refund, grooming and wellness products must be unused, unopened, and in their original packaging. Opened or used grooming and wellness products are eligible for store credit refunds only. If you have questions about returning a grooming or wellness product, please reach out to customercare@privepet.com
SWIMWEAR
Swimwear must be returned with the sanitary adhesive strip attached. We know ordering swimwear and intimates online can be tricky: To make sure your items will be eligible for a return, please try on bottoms and briefs over underwear, and do not remove the protective adhesive sanitary strip until you’re sure you’ve got the right fit. Be mindful when trying on swimwear and clothing, as items with deodorant marks and or cosmetics marks are considered damaged and ineligible for return.
PET CARRIERS, TOTE BAGS, AND ACCESSORIES
If you’re undecided about a pet carrier, tote bag, or accessory you’ve ordered, please handle items with care as you gently give them a try in your home. To be eligible for a return, the item must be in brand new, unused condition and all original packaging, including dust bags, must be included. Hang tags if any must also be attached.
SHOES
Please stand on a smooth, clean and dry surface (such as a rug) to protect soles when trying on shoes. Shoes with signs of wear on the soles or anywhere else are not eligible for return. To be eligible for return, all original packaging, including dust bags, must be included.
HOW DO I MAKE A GIFT RETURN?
We’re happy to exchange gift returns for store credit, so you can select something you love. Drop us a line at customercare@privepet.com and we’ll get the process started—we’ll need the name or email of the original purchaser or the order number. To return an item, follow the directions below:
For returns from the US:
- Email us at customercare@privepet.com include the email address that you used when you purchased the item being returned as well as your order number. Please also let us know which item you would like to return and select the reason for the return.

Returning an item with your own label is at your own risk. We are not liable for damage caused by inadequate packaging by you or if the item is damaged or lost while being returned to us. Items that are damaged when we receive them will not be eligible for refund.
- For assistance with all grooming and wellness items that have been opened, tried, or tested, please contact customer service at customercare@privepet.com to receive instructions on how best to go about initiating your return. Kindly note that these items are subject to a refund in the form of store credit.

WHAT IS YOUR EXCHANGE POLICY?
EXCHANGES
We do not accept exchanges, as items may sell out while the requested exchange is returned and processed. If your purchase falls within the return policy outlined above, we encourage you to purchase the item you need and return the unwanted item for a refund. If you are buying a different size of the same item, email customercare@privepet.com to have your return label fee waived.
I RECEIVED A DAMAGED PRODUCT. HOW SHOULD I PROCEED?
If there is an issue with an item, please let our Customer Care team know by sending an email to customercare@privepet.com as soon as possible. We will work with you to resolve any problems as quickly as we can. Providing photos and details about the damage will help to expedite the process.

MY RETURN HAS BEEN INCORRECTLY REFUNDED. HOW SHOULD I PROCEED?
We’re sorry if we’ve made a mistake processing your return! If you were expecting a refund and were not refunded the full amount, it may be because we do not refund delivery, shipping, and handling costs. Please contact customercare@privepet.com with any questions or concerns.
Some of the products we sell are shipped directly by the vendor. If this is the case, you will find this information on the item’s product page, in the “Shipping & Returns” dropdown menu, along with information about the return policy for that item. Please note that if your item is shipped from the vendor, we will share the shipping and contact information you provide at checkout with that vendor so that they can complete your shipment.
