In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2022, the Statements of Income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and Cash Flows for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of PetMed Express, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates  The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Fair Value of Financial Instruments  The carrying amounts of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncements  The Company does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
