Pharmacy in New Zealand

“I highly recommend Te Puna vets. They're very friendly & helpful. The vet was very thorough & ran through all the options so I could make an informed choice that worked within our budget. Our cat responded well to their gentle & loving care.”

“Have been a client here for a couple years now, was recommended by a friend. The staff are absolutely lovely, compassionate and caring. Definitely are great with animals care and you can notice the passion all the staff have for them. Highly recommend this vet.”

“Maggie and Max have spent a lot of time at Koru Vets cattery when we have been away for work. We drive away knowing they are getting the best care and attention possible from the lovely staff there which makes leaving them easier. We get regular emailed photos while we are away of them which is always so appreciated and makes our day.”

“Super impressed by Crown. We rang them on Monday morning, they were here on Wednesday. Nothing was too much trouble for them, even as our plans changed a couple of times in the intervening day! Brandon, Jac and Josh were punctual and super-efficient. As my brother put it, "Why would you use anyone else?"”

“My cat of 15 yrs was ill, Pet Doctos were wonderful, so patient with me and my silly quetios. Even though they were booked solidly, they went out of the way to help my cat and and to make sure we knew what was happening with him”

“Lovely little Mitre 10 with the most common things you might need to grab. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Amazing, friendly customer service helping me with a delivery - my error on the order - but the team got a new product out to me pronto. The product is awesome - Bbox lunchbox already saving me loads of time as its easy to wash and assemble. Thanks guys!”

“Took our elderly cat in and we had to unfortunately put him to sleep. Carevets were amazing. So compassionate and caring of our situation. Informed us of each step of the euthanasia process. Wasn't to expensive given it was on a Sunday.”

“CareVets Chartwell were able to take a short notice weekend consultation when I became concerned about his behaviour. The vet quickly decided he needed dental treatment and that was the key reason for Darcy’s change of vibe. They had Darcy booked in at their sister clinic Hamilton South at a date convenient to me, provided pain relief and antibiotics and gave me a lot of peace of mind. Ever since my first consultation with CareVets Chartwell I’ve been exclusively taking Darcy to Chartwell and Hamilton South Clinic’s and received top notch customer service. Darcy has never been happier and you guys provide by far the best vet experience for my wee dude that he’s ever had in his 6 years. Thanks for all your team do. The reception team are so knowledgeable and provide great advice and the vet doctors are exceptional at what they do. Worth every cent and will be back again and again in the future instead of using Darcy’s other vet clinic. Thanks heaps!”

“Exceptional customer service from Claire. Very knowledgeable and efficient, helped me pick the perfect product I was looking for. I will definitely be coming back to this store.”

“Wonderful local pharmacy and lovely staff. Usually quite busy so pays to ring ahead to arrange for prescription to be filled”

“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.”

“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”

“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”

“Took my Puppy here for her haircut last week and it was the best she's had yet, we will definitely become regulars here. They asked me exactly how I wanted her to look, and they made sure that she had the best experience ever. Being a puppy she's very social and active but she came out looking absolutely amazing and I couldn't have wished for a better job. Amazing team and fabulous groomers in a wonderful space with plenty of parking for a quick dash in and out.”

“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!”

“Long time client of Cathy and Phil and no hesitation in singing their praises. Professional, compassionate and caring for my late German Shepherd and now, my Bichon/Toy Poodle X. Highly recommended.”
