Return & Cancellation Policy

Last Updated: September 2026

At VELPAW, we are committed to providing gentle, reliable, and thoughtfully selected pet care products for your furry friends. Your pet’s comfort, hygiene, and happiness are our priority.

As pet care products are used for your pets’ daily grooming and hygiene, our Return & Cancellation Policy is designed to ensure product safety, quality, and customer satisfaction. Please read this policy carefully before placing an order.
