Pets in Auckland

“I followed Doggy Dan’s 5 golden rules with my rescue dog who was super reactive and out of control and it works! She is now almost 10 and is a joy. Thanks Dan. Highly recommend his program.”

“Our girl loves coming here. The cattery is well set up, light, good airflow, never too crowded and just feels good. We've put our girl through a few catteries and this one is the o ly one she's really been settled, and happy in. Kelly and her team are fantastic!”

“Amazing place. Clean and well designed, especially for a business week in Auckland, close to conveniences and Mission Bay beach. Friendly and helpful landlords I'll come back...”

“There are two pharmacists. One of them is Korean and the other is Chinese. They are very kind and nice people. Above all, medicine is low in price.”

“Petware, amazing products, very supportive staff with well equipped product knowledge.”

“This Bed & Breakfast is simply amazing. Leonie, the owner is the kind of person that will go over and above to make sure that you are comfortable during your stay at Amberwood. I recently got married and had half a dozen guests from overseas stay at her property, and Leonie treated them all like her own family. One of our guests was unwell during her stay, and Leonie even went to the Chemist in the middle of the night to buy some much needed medication. Her breakfasts are epic, and her kindness is immeasurable. This B & B is highly recommended:)”

“We arrived today from Taupō and were lucky to have our morning coffee at Midpoint. Their welcome was wonderful and warm. We enjoyed an absolutely amazing coffee. Thank you all so much — great job, team! Stay awesome!”

“Lovely staff and great food and coffee menu. If you love coffee then you must visit this place! The food we ordered was so delicious - very happy with how the mini breakfast was seasoned. Nothing was overly salted and ingredients were fresh. Really good prices too!”

“Amazing cafe! The decor is cozy yet stylish, making it a perfect spot for catching up with friends. The coffee is exceptional—smooth, rich, and brewed to perfection. The food menu is equally impressive, offering a great variety of fresh, flavorful dishes and tastes incredible. Also friendly and attentive staff passionate about making your experience special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great cup of coffee and a delightful experience!”

“Pak’nSave Westgate is a newer and tidier branch that still sticks to the chain’s signature no-frills vibe. It’s built for budget shoppers, but it feels a bit more modern compared to some of the older locations. If you’re in the West Auckland area, it’s one of the better options when it comes to balancing affordability with a clean, roomy shopping experience. The store is spacious, well laid out, and usually well-stocked. Aisles are wide, which helps with the flow of foot traffic even during peak hours. It’s still a very practical setup — shelves packed high, lots of bulk products, and nothing fancy in terms of presentation — but everything’s easy to find. Prices are, as always with Pak’nSave, the main draw. You can save quite a bit here, especially on pantry staples, meat, and cleaning products. The produce section is usually decent, with a good range of fruit and veg, though the freshness can still vary day to day. The meat section offers plenty of variety at a decent price point, and the bakery’s got all the basics — bread, rolls, and the usual treats. Staff are generally helpful if you approach them, though it’s still a self-service kind of environment. Don’t expect heaps of interaction, but they’ll assist you if you ask. The checkout area is usually well-staffed, and self-service options are available for smaller shops. Queues move fairly quickly even when it’s busy. Parking is pretty good at Westgate. There’s plenty of space, and it’s easy to get in and out of the carpark compared to other branches. Being part of a large shopping complex also means you can tick off other errands while you’re in the area. Just like other Pak’nSaves, you might find some differences between what’s online and what’s actually in store, so it’s best to shop with a bit of flexibility. Overall, Pak’nSave Westgate is a strong performer. It’s clean, spacious, and reliable for those who want to get a big shop done without overspending. It’s still a no-frills setup, but it feels a little more polished than the older branches, which makes for a smoother experience all round.”

“We went to the Cafe for lunch. It was quiet however speaking to the staff it gets very busy during the weekend. The food was excellent and the service great. A lovely place for lunch if you’re looking for beautiful surroundings and plenty of room to relax.”

“The Hunting Lodge is such a beautiful wedding venue. As a wedding photographer, I always love shooting here. The grounds are stunning year-round, and the sunsets over the vineyards are next level. There are several ceremony options, including right at the edge of the vines or beside the iconic Barn. I also love the vintage caravan bar, it adds such a fun, relaxed energy and looks amazing in photos! With their in-house wine, relaxed vibe, and versatile indoor-outdoor flow, The Hunting Lodge is one of the best winery venues in Auckland :)”

“Very friendly staff, very helpful and knowledgeable. Jordan was very kind and helped me pick out what I needed and carried my products to the car. Going above and beyond. Will definitely be coming back”

“Love this place! You have a choice to eat inside and outside. The people are friendly, professional and always genuine when they come around to collect plates etc. The food was amazing!! Looked and tasted delicious. We will be coming again for sure.”

“I had a really great experience with the 2 lovely staff members yesterday. Both were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable in helping me choose the right products for my puppy. They went above and beyond and I'd definitely pop back in to that store when I'm in the area again.”

“Came in with my little pup Harley and one of the team, Isabelle, despite being on her day off went out of her way to make a fuss and cuddle her. If that wasn't enough she then recognized her again 3 days later and when I visited the store without her a few days after that she remembered her name and asked about her. This was a huge contrast to animates who didn't even look at her or acknowledge her. Customer for life here. Thanks! With love from Harley”

“The team at 3 Kings are amazing. Always welcoming me with a smile. They often me help me carry my purchases to my van. I highly recommend them”

“I was initially reluctant to take my cat to the vet, but the process was so quick and efficient that it alleviated all of my concerns. It's such a relief being able to trust that your pet is in professional and caring hands.”

“We absolutely loved our stay at Quest Carlaw Park Apartment Hotel! The staff were fantastic, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The rooms and facilities were spotless, and I appreciated how well everything was maintained. Indoor parking was super convenient and easily accessible. The area is peaceful and quiet, yet just a short distance from the CBD, shops, and great restaurants. Perfect balance of comfort and convenience. Highly recommend!”

“I had two rabbits and now I have one left. Dr. Kenzie is one of the best doctors. Melow and I are so happy to have you with us.”

“Woolworths Waiata Shores in Takanini is one of the most impressive and forward-thinking supermarkets in South Auckland. It’s not just a place to shop—it’s part of a larger, eco-conscious development that blends sustainability with everyday convenience. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice how clean, tidy, and well-organized the store is. The wide aisles, modern fixtures, and inviting layout make for a calm and enjoyable shopping experience. Shoppers often praise the helpful and friendly staff, as well as thoughtful touches like kid-sized trolleys, which make it easier for families to bring their little ones along. What really sets this Woolworths apart, however, is its commitment to sustainability. It holds the distinction of being Auckland’s first supermarket to receive Green Star accreditation, which reflects its environmentally responsible design. The building is fitted with solar panels that generate a portion of its power, along with advanced refrigeration systems that use natural refrigerants. Energy-saving LED lights, water-efficient taps, and even digital shelf labels all contribute to a greener operation. The store also offers EV charging stations and bike parking, making it easier for customers to choose sustainable transport options. In terms of product range, the store has everything you’d expect and more—from fresh produce and a well-stocked bakery to an in-store pharmacy and online order pickup services. It’s strategically located at the entrance of the Waiata Shores development, which is a thoughtfully planned community with parks, walkways, and cafes, creating a welcoming neighborhood hub for locals. Overall, Woolworths Waiata Shores is a great example of how supermarkets can combine excellent service, cleanliness, and convenience with serious environmental efforts. Whether you’re doing your weekly grocery run or picking up a few essentials, this store makes the experience smooth, pleasant, and sustainable.”

“Fantastic vets. They were able to get me in at short notice and the whole team were wonderful. Just a great experience all round. Thanks you!”

“Our local Animates store! I always love coming here as all the staff are friendly and amazing. The staff are always so helpful, and they once even helped me bring big bags of litter boxes to the car ☺️ Products are mostly stocked, and they have great multi buy deals. Have done a price match with them in the past too. Special shout out to Nyk and Joseph, always with smiles everytime I see them. Keep up the great work team!”

“Great place to shop for the Pets. Great specials so best to subscribe to their emails online. Staff are always so friendly”

“Wait time is fairly ok. Lovely staff. Like the fact I can shop then come back to collect our prescriptions”

“What a fantastic place, stayed from the 6th to the 9th April, I chose here as it is very close to the Southern cross hospital where I had my operation. My room was really nice close to the main entrance which was a big bonus, the staff were really nice and helpful. Plenty of food places around even though I didn’t use them. Hoyt’s cinema close by as well. But as I mentioned earlier it was the helpful staff that impressed me the most. I highly recommend this motel and would definitely stay again.”

“We have stayed here twice now and really enjoy it. It is easy to get to. They make valet parking a breeze. The rooms are a good size, breakfast is great and we really enjoy the inside pool/ spa/ sauna that you can use regardless of the weather. I would definitely return.”
