Pets in Auckland

“The team at the Vet Centre Pukekohe is exceptionally friendly and consistently professional. They offer reliable clinical advice, and we wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. It all starts with the wonderful staff at the front desk, who make you welcome and extends to the professionals who work diligently to provide our girls, Lily and Molly, with the best possible care. Thank you, team!”

“Room was great, nice size, we weren't stepping on each other's toes. Cute little balcony/conservatory. Good walking distance to Go media stadium for concerts and events. We've booked again for another concert at eden park next year. Staff were super friendly and helpful with directions and recommendations for food nearby.”

“Very reasonable price for EXCEPTIONAL service. The team really really love my dog and take wonderful care of him. He gets so excited each time he arrives - even though he’s been attending for years. They’re very good at communication and have the dogs well-being at the centre of everything they do. And the staff are bubbly and fun even after hot days running after the dogs. Highly recommend.”

“Friendly and welcoming staff took good care of my cat peaches while she got her vaccination done. Affordable prices too. Highly recommend!”

“So happy with my choice to change vets, Pakuranga vet appointments don’t have long wait times. The care has been second to none and a very empathetic and caring team. Top staff, top service and great pricing. Love the kind phone call from the vet to check in on our Bella after her recent lameness. Such knowledgeable vets with great communication all the way through a very challenging illness in our cat.”

“Would highly recommend Furry Babies Day Care to any dog owner. We’ve got our puppy during the lock down period, he was once a very shy boy due to lack of socialisation. After been to Furry Babies Day Care a few weeks our beloved puppy is growing in to a wonderfully confident dog. They are treating him as their own baby. Professional and reliable. Very trustworthy!”

“This place is so great it's hard to describe. Amazing location, with a fantastic view of Auckland in the distance. Very calm, very quiet, and to wake up with that view in the mornings is just amazing. I would recommend this to any couple wanting a romantic and relaxing getaway. Plus, Waikehe island is a fantastic place in general, a minor tropical paradise. Don't miss renting a car and driving around the island to visit the wineries.”

“Host was available by phone when we arrived early to drop off bags. The suite was very nice, with a great view”

“If you want the comforts of home, don’t stay here. The place is magnificent. It allowed two days of beautiful respite after sightseeing. I loved the lounge and kitchen facilities that you could truly recuperate while on a busy and fun holiday. Thank you so much”

“Stayed here for 3 nights and absolutely loved every moment! I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a quiet, beautiful home in the heart of nature. The wine tour with Nicky (the host) was equally amazing! A truly great way to see the island and spend a day getting to know about the delicious grape juice this island has to offer. I’ll be back again for sure!”

“Recently returned to the District, from Torbay. My little mate dog Finnegan became very unwell. Vet Centre Ruakaka was fully booked but arranged for a consult at Waipu. Vet Pip was awesome, as is, the whole experience. A quiet weekend and with me administering prescribed meds in conjunction with prime beef mince, Finnegan improved markedly. Follow up at Ruakaka confirmed treatment a success. Thanks Team Waipu. Highly Recommended.”

“I managed to get my 6yr old booked in for 2 of the 3 day camps available these holidays and she had an absolute blast! The team leaders are fantastic, knowledgeable and full of patience. The activities are varied skill levels and always another option available or challenge to be met, Kayaks, Archery Abseiling .Meals were included and a 9- 5 day was full of action- highly recommend for any kids wanting to get out of their comfort zone or city and come enjoy the coast.”

“Our little cat Pipi has been into Whangaparoa vets 5 times now for eating cutty grass and every time the team has been warm and welcoming, they even nick named her "The Lawnmower"”

“Super friendly, caring, helpful and efficient”

“My dog Snowy has just turned six and been with Mel at Southpaws DD for five and half years where he has gained many friends. Hopefully this tells it's own story, and thank you for looking after my boy!”

“Our wonderful experience at this lovely motel was just magnificent!!! Not only was it less than a 30 minutes drive from Manukau (where we reside) but it was so easy to find :-)). Our given room (no# 1) was clean, comfortable, quiet n worth the money we spent to stay here!!! Tony (the owner) helped us alot n was such an awesome host :-)) thank you!!! We'll definitely visit here again soon .... fyi, take your own alcohol as the nearest liquor store isn't near lol ..... tx”

“Ordered the Great Big Breakfast for brunch today. Definitely hit the spot, satisfying my hunger pains after a big gym session. Scrambled eggs (extra eggs) cooked to perfection. Breakfast sausage full of flavor, hash brown golden and crunchy. Bacon cooked just right. Staff very friendly and welcoming. The Cafe had a nice warm and homely vibe. Definitely recommend this place if your looking for somewhere nice to eat.”

“I recently visited Neil Cafe and bar and was truly impressed by the outstanding quality of my meal also a very reasonable price especially considering the quality of the ingredients. I had a slow cooked pork belly on mash with fresh salad. The meal was very generous in size and I was sorry when I had finished despite being unable to eat anything else cos I was very full! Seriously it's my favorite place to eat now.”

“My two years old male cat has been diagnosed and treated in ARC vets Shore for a urinary obstruction. I had already received injections and medication from the local vet, but it didn't get better for 4 days and got worse, so I ended up coming to the ARC over the weekend. He was hospitalized for a day and returned safely to our family today. I'm grateful to the kind vet, Jess, for her prompt and clear treatment and explanations. My cat can now urinate and I can immediately tell that he is doing much better than yesterday. Of course, I had to pay not kind medical expenses, but this opportunity gave me the opportunity to learn about various diseases that frequently occur in male cats. I highly recommend ARC vets Shore.”

“Great store they have all your needs. Friendly service”

“We had booked the beautiful Lavender Hill in October 2024 for our wedding accomodation. The first night I stayed with my bridal party, it was perfect as there was a room for everyone, we were able to relax and unwind, and had access to a kitchen and everything we needed, the detail that Trish thought of was perfect. We then were able to use it as a spot to get our bridal party photos taken on our wedding day, which was perfect, as it was only 5 minutes from our wedding venue. Cannot recommend Lavender Hill enough, it was great.”

“Love this place. Such caring friendly helpful people. Will always support them”

“The best pharmacy I have been in Auckland. Very nice and helpful people. Free of charge for Gov medication. If you ask your GP to send the presentation to this pharmacy, it will be ready when you pick it up. Great service.”

“This place is so good. I stayed here while on a business trip and found the hotel perfect. Easy friendly check in, a lovely room with everything I needed. I ordered from the room service menu and was pleasantly surprised by the burger and chips, simple, cost effective, nourishing and just what I needed. The staff here are so genuinely accommodating and friendly. I will be back.”
