Veterinary care in New Zealand

“I took my two chihuahuas here today to get their nails clipped and I also brought them a dog harness each. I was served by the lovely Kimberly who helped me with fitting the harnesses and also with carrying one of them out to my car( I’m currently injured with a back problem). Really appreciated your help Kimberly and also the nice guy who clipped their nails. I will be back. Great shop with helpful staff.”

“We have been sending our girl to Alameda for 2 years now and it’s her absolute favourite place to be! So much so she’s waiting at the door every morning and cry’s the whole way there!! Our girl goes for daycare everyday and we can never thank the team and Davina enough for giving our girl the space to burn her energy and a safe space to stay when we are away from home! I couldn’t recommend a better place and better people! Thank you all for the hard work you do, it doesn’t go unnoticed ❤️”

“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”

“Excellent consult with my elderly cat who wasn't eating and had been vomiting for a few days. Jess, locum vet, listened to me and we discussed various measures we could take. Felt supported. Meds and fluids given. Meds for home use as well. We will go back for a review in several days. End of life options also discussed. Very happy to have been able to talk things thru.”

“I can’t recommend this daycare enough! I send my puppy to daycare once a week, and she is so excited to go that she pulls me to reception in the mornings and when I pick her up she tears around the corner with a big smile on her face like she’s had the best day ever! I’ve also noticed a number of times she’s tried to shower members of the team in kisses which she only does when she really loves someone ❤️ Katy has always been so flexible like the time I showed up when daycare was closed for Christmas and she still took Lulu for the day or the 6mths that she kept Lulu’s space while I recovered from a head injury. And I love when I get updates at pickup about the friends she played with that day! It is so obvious through Lulu’s excitement, how well she’s taken care of and how much she loves her daycare. As Lulu’s mum it’s really nice for me to know she’s having the time of her life when I’m at work so thank you so much Katy and team!”

“Me and my Cat had a fantastic experience with Sally! She was friendly and kind, and she delivered our test results with empathy. Very grateful.”

“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.

“Tauranga Vets feels like a home away from home for us and our pets. Their clinic is a modern, stylish space that's as comforting as a cozy living room. You can tell they've put a lot of thought into making it a place where both animals and their humans feel relaxed. The vets and nurses are like family to our cat. They're incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely care about their patients. It's heartwarming to see the bond they form with animals, and it puts us completely at ease. Their passion for their work is infectious. The reception team is always a friendly face to greet us. They're helpful, efficient, and make us feel like valued clients. It's clear they love animals as much as we do.”

“We recently had to put our old girl down .. the team at vetora were awesome . We chose to get her cremated as she was our sons best mate . The little unexpected touches they did for us was greatly appreciated. Thank you to the team for everything.”

“When i had to my cat to sleep they where very supportive they lent me some tissues and gave me all the time I needed to say goodbye to my beloved cat thank you very much for all your support best vet ever”

“Can't recommend Critter Creek enough. They are so good with our blue heeler and understand her 'ball possessiveness' and other foibles. We always know we are leaving her in safe, true animal loving hands :)”

“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.”

“The team at Animal Orthopaedics Christchurch were amazing. The initial appointment was a whole hour where they took the time to assess and give valuable advice. The process of surgery was awesome with the teams caring nature and constant updates was truly amazing. Highly recommend using the team at Animal Orthopaedics.”

“Erin was lovely and communicated with us very quick and efficiently. The room Patty was allocated was lovely and Patty settled in right away. I don't think Patty was ready to leave when we picked her up as she looked like she was enjoying herself. We would definitely use the Big Meow again.”

“Friendly recepionist and vet, treats our dog and cat well. Gives helpful advice about pet care. There is a small shop selling most pet requirements.”

“The team at Mt Vets are absolutely wonderful. It was our puppy's first visit with us and genuinely had a great outing despite it being vaccinations. Highly recommend”

“This is a delightful home for your cat's long or short term stay. Ellis and Paul obviously love cats and take great care with nutrition and well-being. The rooms are light and airy and spotlessly clean. The surroundings are calm and restful. My cat stayed for 3 months October 2019 when I moved home. She is a loner, used to hunting on a farm all her life, but she was so relaxed and cuddly when I took her home, I knew she had enjoyed her time with Ellis and Paul. Thank you to the Cat Hotel Stoney Creek for your thoughtful care of Jessie. You are Jessie's hotel of choice !!”
