Yes, we do it’s called the Modern Companion Community! It’s a free program where you can earn rewards by purchasing whether you’re an in-store or online customer! You can also earn by, referring a friend to shop with us, celebrating a birthday, and following us on social media. Customers earn 2 points for every dollar spent, and as you earn points you will get discounts to use in-store or online (500 points = $5 off). If you're an online customer only you can sign up here. For in-store customers, we recommend you come in and sign up for even more exclusive opportunities!

We want your products to last! For the best care, we recommend all our products be hand washed only with a mild soap, water, and air dried. These instructions are also included on our product packaging. Our blankets, scarves, bandanas, collars, headbands, and bowties all do best with these care directions. 

To protect the prints, our shirts should always be turned inside out when put in the wash. They should be washed with cold water, on the delicate setting, with a low-medium tumble. We are not responsible for improper care of any of our products.

*Every washer is different, please use your best judgment. 

In the case of toys, treats, and chews, we always recommend adult supervision during play. We test our products for durability and safety, but every pet is different. Keep an eye on your pet while they play and chew.

New puppy? We know how frustrating it can be when they grow out of their harnesses in a matter of days or weeks. 

If you purchase a harness from us and your puppy grows out of it, you’ll have 6 months from your purchase date to take advantage of our puppy policy. If your harness is still in a wearable condition, bring it back to us and we’ll donate it to a rescue pup in need. You’ll get 25% off of a new harness purchase with us to get a harness that fits.

Online customers, send us an email at contact@themoderncompanion.com to get directions on sending your harness back to us. In-store customers, just bring your harness to our retail location.

You can learn more about us on our about page here!

It currently takes us around 2-5 business days for our small team to process orders. We’ll get your order ready to go as soon as we can! *Business days do NOT include weekends or holidays.

Please Note: Certain items may take longer to process, but we’ll get your order to you as quickly as possible! Custom orders like tag engravings, all tees, custom collars, and pre-orders have different processing times than our other products. For those types of orders, please refer to the processing time listed in the item’s description so you’ll know when to expect your order! 

Since we ship orders only when they’re complete, items that don’t require longer processing time will be sent when your entire order is finished. If you’d like to get some items sooner, we’d recommend ordering them separately so you don’t have to wait!

Usually, orders arrive around 2-5 business days after we ship them within the US. International orders take a bit longer and typically arrive within 2-3 weeks.

We know how excited your pet is for their order, but we can’t control how fast your package gets to you after it leaves our store.

Once an order is placed, we’re unable to cancel it. If you have any questions about a product or timing, please reach out to us before placing your order.

Sometimes our small team makes mistakes, but we know how important it is to get the perfect thing for your pet. We’ll do our best to make it right! 

If you received the wrong item in your order, email us at contact@themoderncompanion.com as soon as possible. Please include your order number and the name of the item you were supposed to receive, as well as a picture of the item you received instead. We’ll take it from there!

We do our best to run quality checks on all the items we send out, but now and then something might slip by us or shipping can be extra tough on an order. No matter what happens, we want to make it right!

Please include your order number, the name of the damaged item, a picture of the item, and a picture of the packaging it was in. Please do not throw the packaging away.

Any orders returned to us because of an incorrect address will be asked to pay for shipping to the correct address and are not entitled to a refund.

Don't worry! Sometimes orders are marked as delivered even if they haven’t actually arrived at your front door. Your order may show up within a day or two, or it may have been delivered to a nearby address by mistake. Check with your neighbors to see if they received your package.

Unfortunately, we have no control over packages once they leave our store. We can check the tracking for you, but we only have access to the same tracking information you do. If your order hasn’t arrived after one to two days and your neighbors haven’t seen it, we recommend contacting your local USPS or UPS (depending on how the item was shipped) for an update. If they confirm it’s lost, please request an email confirmation from them and forward it to us, and we’ll see what we can do!

We allow exchanges for items that do not fit, but we encourage you to check any fit guides ahead of ordering so you can enjoy your items sooner! Items you wish to exchange should have no signs of wear and tear and should still have all of their tags to be eligible for the exchange.

If you want to initiate an exchange, send an email to contact@themoderncompanion.com. Please include your order number and the name of the item you want to exchange in your email. We’ll get the new size sent out as soon as possible!

The Modern Companion Subscription box is a bi-monthly box that gives you priority access to all of the new and exciting things we’re picking out for our pets (and their humans). Each box will be packed with subscriber-exclusive products and the best part is it’ll be different every time. So if you love what we offer already and want your dog doing tippy taps when they see our boxes your going to want to get your paws on these boxes!

We wouldn’t want to spoil the surprise! Every box will be full of things we love, but it’ll be different every time to keep things exciting. Each item is carefully curated by our team as an exclusive item just for subscribers or something we might bring into the store that you’ll get a first look at. You’ll get 3-5 items in each box with a value over $55.

You’ll have the option to subscribe for one bimonthly box for $55, after that it’ll be an automatic $55 payment every other month on the 1st of the month.

Our other option is our yearly subscription for $275. You’ll still get 6 boxes in your yearly subscription but one box will be free!

Our boxes are only open to new subscribers during certain months for a limited time to keep the subscription exclusive.

You can write all of your pets’ names so we know who we’re sending the box to, but please note that we can’t make significant changes to the box’s contents based on notes about your pets.
