Reviewing the Best Dog Food Delivery Services

Nom Nom

Best for Additional Customization

What we love about Nom Nom is that they don’t sacrifice quality to give you the food your dog needs at an affordable price. Recipes are developed by board-certified veterinary nutritionists using exclusively real, wholesome, nutrient-rich ingredients

Why we chose it

Personalized Expertise from Field Professionals:

Your dog will receive a personalized plan after answering questions about their age, weight, body condition, and health issues. From there, Nom Nom will pick the best recipe(s) for your dog through an algorithm created by board-certified veterinary nutritionists. If your pet has specific needs, you can work directly with their Pet Support team to see if Nom Nom is the right fit. We love how hands-on this company is!

Cost Effective:

If your furry friend is a small dog, you can get Nom Nom for $41.28 for two weeks; for medium-sized dogs, $91.47; and for large dogs, $165.28. We know the price for larger dogs isn’t the lowest, but for the quality and amount of food, you can’t beat it.

Quick and Easy Delivery:

Your food will be prepared just days before it arrives to you, and will be portioned in individual meals for easy feeding. You can choose your delivery frequency, and if you ever want to skip a delivery, you can do that, too. Nom Nom also works to reduce their carbon footprint, which is why almost all of the packaging is recyclable.

Meal Diversity:

We love that with Nom Nom, you get four recipe options of Beef Mash, Turkey fare, Chicken Cuisine, and Pork Potluck. Now that’s the buffet your dog wants to be at. If your dog didn’t like their first food recipe, you can always rotate recipes for no additional charge! You can also add additional recipes to your delivery for $5 per order. Not satisfied with Nom Nom after 30 days? You’ll receive a full refund.

The Pets Table

Best for Cost Effective Options

When it comes to choosing the best for your furry family member, The Pets Table stands out as a trusted name, thanks to its association with HelloFresh, a renowned leader in food solutions. But it’s not just the brand’s reputation that makes it noteworthy; it’s their dedication to enhancing your dog’s well-being while being mindful of your budget. The introduction of human-grade  fresh dog food, alongside an affordable option like their minimally-processed air-dried food, is a game-changer. The Pets Table’s air-dried food is 40% more affordable, making air-dried a great option to start your dog on a healthier diet today. Their air-drying method slowly dries the food at low heat, preserving naturally occurring nutrients such as vitamins, antioxidants, and other essential elements crucial for your dog’s health. Plus, air-drying keeps the food highly palatable and flavorful without the need for additional flavors, all while reducing moisture content through a natural preservation process. It’s a thoughtful approach to canine nutrition that combines trustworthiness and affordability for pet owners who want the best for their dogs.

Why we chose it

Ollie

Best Packaging

Looking to transform your dog into the healthiest dog on the block? Definitely check out Ollie. Their focus is on human-grade ingredients for your dog–– because why shouldn’t your dog eat the most nutritious food out there? Ollie creates their recipes with hormone-free chicken, high-quality beef and turkey, and pasture-raised, free-range lamb. They’re obsessed with throwing superfoods into their food, like chia seeds, and sneak in fruits and veggies, like blueberries and spinach, for the highest nutritional density.

Why we chose it

Convenient Packaging and Storage

The Ollie packaging stuck out as the best of any of the other competitors. The individual food packets peeled open easily, unlike the pouches from The Farmer’s Dog which needed scissors to open (I know this sounds lazy, but not needing to clean scissors every time you feed your dog is a life-saver!). The Ollie box came with a cute and convenient branded resealable box that makes for easy and clean storage within your fridge. Ollie’s custom portion scooper makes getting your dog’s serving size perfect every time.

Ethical Sourcing and Food Process

Ollie’s formula is formulated by a team of specialized veterinarians and handmade in small batches in a USDA certified facility. Cooked with a kettle cooker at low temperatures for maximum nutrition and freshness, Ollie’s dog food is then sent to third-party testers, who check for taste and quality. Ollie makes sure all your dog’s individual needs are being catered to in their personal dog quiz where Ollie asks about breed, weight, activity, and health conditions such as allergies and skin conditions. Ollie offers a variety of homemade style recipes (Healthy Turkey Feast, Hearty Beef Eats, Chicken Goodness, and Tasty Lamb Fare) that serve each of your dog’s specific needs.

Ordering Experience and Customer Satisfaction

To make sure your Ollie dog food is customized to your dog’s needs, Ollie customers take a quiz asking about their dog’s age, breed, weight, activity level, and allergies. Then, Ollie customers get to choose from a variety of flavor options and whether they want to feed their dog’s meals to be completely Ollie, or whether they want to use Ollie as a supplement to other dog food. The easy customization process and amount of choice here really blew us away! Ollie also really seems to care about customer satisfaction. If for any reason your dog doesn’t like their recipe, Ollie also offers to send you a different recipe or refund your starter box.

Education and Ease of Transition

Transitioning your dog to a new brand of dog food can be difficult, especially if they’ve never eaten real, whole ingredients before. The box included a super helpful information packet on how best to transition your dog to fresh food, which is especially useful for those transitioning from kibble for the first time. Additionally, only Ollie offered a free probiotic pack to help your dog’s shift to a higher-quality diet. The probiotics ensure your dog’s smooth transition at no additional cost.
