Pets in New Zealand

“Sam and the team are literally the best groomers in town! Not only do they do an excellent job, they give the dogs such care and attention. This company truly loves dogs. My dog was very anxious after having had a bad experience at a previous groomers. Now my dog is anxiety free when she gets groomed. My doggie can even hangout afterwards and play with the other dogs, if I can’t get there in time to pick her up immediately afterwards. Sam’s knowledge of dogs and their wellbeing is vast. Do yourself a favour and give Fur-b-luscious a go. Your dog will love you for it!”

“Fiona was a dream come true when I took my little fur bundle of joy to her when she was 12 weeks old and has been with her for 8 years. Lacey gets so excited to see Fiona especially all the cuddles and comes away picture perfect with a cute little bow. Smells and looks absolutely gorgeous. Lacey loves her Aunty Fiona. ❤️”

“Beautiful product! I couldn't be happier with my pups new bed (he couldn't be happier either). Love that these are made locally and you can tell the quality is amazing! Super quick delivery too. Soooo happy I invested in a decent bed for my doggo, definitely worth every $”

“We ordered cupcakes for our little Hugo 's birthday and he loved them so much. Got a chance to pat very friendly Keko. Amazing service. Highly recommend Keko's cakes”

“Excellent service, accommodating host and exceptionally clean. The views are stunning! Highly recommend a nice relaxing stay here”

“Alex at Insure Right is awesome to deal with. Super helpful, friendly, and always quick to respond. He made insurance simple and easy to understand, and I feel confident knowing I’ve got the right cover. Highly recommend Alex if you’re after a reliable insurance agent who actually cares.”

“Highly recommended! I went to her today cause my friend recommended. She was so kind and nice also I love how she shaved my dog. It’s hard to find a right groomer in Auckland for over 10 years I’d say as my standard is a bit high. It’s so sad that I’m about to move to Sydney. But all the best for her and I highly recommended ☺️”

“Best cleaning service in Auckland. I got all my money back. Best exit cleaning service very cheap service too.”

“Great place to take your furbabys, their care for both your pets and you is amazing, highly recommend”

“Having just spent the weekend at Quail Lodge with my Mum, I simply can't give it a high enough rating! Starting with the warm welcome, the kindness that hosts Sam and Hamish showed was second to none. The accommodation was superb and it felt like we'd been wrapped up in a luxurious big hug. The food was exceptional, Sam is an incredible cook and nothing was too much trouble. Everything including the beautiful location and scenery was truly a memorable and lasting experience. Hoping that we can return in the not too distant future. Thank you for having us.”

“My dog absolutely loves it here they so appreciate/ love him (he’s old and a bit grumpy so grooming is a challenge). I feel so comfortable leaving him with this team and have been coming here for almost 3 years and l have always had a great experience!!”

“My appointment at Kiwi Vet was great. Dr. Jess was very observant of my pup’s behaviour, listened to my comments, helped with behaviour modification training. I highly recommend Dr. Jess.”

“Can’t recommend Marino Ridge enough! Caroline and Peter are amazing hosts. They’re very knowledgeable about life on Waiheke Island and gave us lots of helpful recs for our whole trip through New Zealand. Marino Ridge has incredible views in all directions and the rooms are very comfortable. It’s a great location, with easy access to the ferry, hiking trails, and Oneroa Village.”

“I have been going here for years, the staff are amazing and fast. No longer live nearby but still happy to drive. Emeel is great and knows everyone’s name”

“Laura and her team came highly recommended to us and she has been caring for our 4 alpaca boys for several years now. All the team are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. They are always happy to answer questions and up-skill owners should they wish to learn more. I always feel my boys are in the best possible hands when being cared for by Laura and her team.”

“So happy I was recommended Ashley a year ago. Such a caring, honest and knowledgeable vet, Louie Boxer is so comfortable going to see her. Wouldn’t trust anyone else now with my pets. Awesome!”

“I never thought I would appreciate a pharmacy enough to write a Google review but here I am! Ban and Mohamad are kind and diligent pharmacists who go above and beyond in caring for their customers. They have picked up on dangerous drug interactions missed by doctors when prescribing them, they are respectful of patient privacy when discussing medications around other customers, the vaccinations Mohamad gives are quick and painless, and they give excellent recommendations. I am always so impressed by how they always have ensure you’re well informed about what you’re being prescribed, even printing out information sheets and talking through complex dosages. They also have incredible integrity - they realised I had been charged full price for an item on discount so they contacted me a week later to let me know they were crediting my account. They provide service, attentiveness and care that you just can’t find at the big franchise pharmacies. I love supporting Coast Care Pharmacy and have had many friends switch to them after hearing me talk about them and subsequently join the loyal fan club.”

“We are extremely happy with Louie! He is not particularly cooperative with the grooming process, to say the least. So we were not expecting wonders. Thank you!”

“Highly recommend this dog grooming salon. Jennifer is friendly, professional, and clearly loves animals. My dog looked great and came out happy and relaxed. The place is clean and well-run—definitely a five-star experience!”

“Amazing customer service & super knowledgeable! You can tell they really care about animals”

“Jono and his team are the absolute BEST! My dog runs for the van when the doorbell rings and doesn’t even look back. He comes back exhausted and is content to snooze the rest of the day. The best part is that we recently learned he lost 3kg at his latest vet visit after starting his walks with Pooped! I trust the team with my boy and they are great at communicating pick ups and drop off. It’s also so fun to follow my pup on insta at the end of the day - his smiles in the pics are priceless. Can’t recommend highly enough.”

“Leaving our lab with Cecilia & team was a smooth and easy process, giving us peace and mind during Lulu’s recovery. Lulu recently had a TPLO, and we were unable to care for her on the property. She’s been with The Doggery for the last 8-weeks. During this time they’ve cared for her remarkably well, helping her heal, with weight loss, kept on top of her medications, facilitated vet trips all the way to Franklin(!), and provided clear/concise updates on the wellbeing of Lulu. We could not have asked for a more effective recovery facility, and definitely know she was loved the entire time.”

“Miss Masami is very thorough and has great grooming skills. Love the smell of the grooming salon, and of course the pink decor !”

“Daisy (5 months) had her first puppy groom at Scissor Hounds with Nico. Nico was gentle and kind with her and Daisy pup came out looking beautiful and much more comfortable. Thanks Nico. We look forward to seeing you again.”

“I went there to get my covid19 vaccine booster shot on Fri afternoon, they were so patient going throught my options with me. Really kind and showed their care to make sure I choose the right option. While I was sitting there for my 15min observation time, I saw other customers came in and I think they know everyone by name. What a great service and you really feel like you are a family to them.”

“We take Molly to Liz and her team. Such a wonderful caring and professional team of people. Molly is much happier. Would recommend this team to anyone. Brett.”

“Chloe is awesome! I highly recommend Pawfect Studio. I live in Ramarama and go all the way to howick because my dog (Miano) trusts Chloe and is more settled with her. Plus Miano comes out looking so fresh and clean. Highly highly recommend them.”

“Sara was so lovely and welcoming! I had Botox done for the first time and I didn’t feel any pain. Was a wonderful experience xx”

“Shyam is the best Pharmacist I have ever met. I am blessed to be living literally 60m from his chemist. He is kind, patient, empathetic, transparent, warm welcoming,friendly, understanding and the epitome of professionalism. His staff are testimony to that. I have only moved to the area 6mths now and everytime I have visited the pharmacy, customers know him by name and vice versa. Customers that I KNOW would have been judged or looked down upon by other chemists. Above all else he treats customers with RESPECT. Walk 30m or so to the next chemist and I can gaurantee you will have a vastly different experience to say the least.”
