Veterinary care in New Zealand

“They took such great care of our special foster pup when he was in for his desexing. Talked through the extra risks (with his existing health conditions) and were so reassuring. Definitely recommended!!”

“Lovely friendly staff who really care for our animals. They also have a cool opshop next door while you wait!”

“Definitely worth the drive from Dunedin. Staff are very helpful and caring. Their services are very reasonably priced too.”

“The level of professionalism along with the genuine compassion for animal care are amongst the highest I have experienced in my 12 years of having dogs. I could not recommend this place enough. Helen at Rappaw Titahi bay saw my dog promptly after receiving my distressed email about the increasing frequency his back end was collapsing on him. We have been seeing Helen on a fortnightly basis over the past year. Helen is a wonderful hydrotherapist as well as an extremely knowledgeable animal physiotherapist. Helen also explains what exercises we can be doing at home which are beneficial for helping our dog to maintain strength and stability for longevity which makes us feel like there are things we can do to help the dog in between sessions or in place of a session. Our dog has now been seeing Helen for over a year and we have witnessed the progress our boy has been doing. He has gone from collapsing and stumbling to maintaining himself and being able to manage his short walks better than he started out a year ago, despite being a year older from building up strength with the hydrotherapy.”

“Great clinic, really friendly staff!”

“To meet the health needs of your furry, feathery, fleecy, or scaly friends, look no further!”

“The staff are lovely to deal with, and the staff are happy to discuss the best care for the animal involved. Glad to call them my local vets”

“This place was great. Took Charlie in for a consult regarding two baby teeth that were digging into his gums. Had them removed that day, and was walked through the whole process. Thanks so much. Highly recommend. Charlie says thanks!”

“The staff are so lovely and experienced. My dog Taz had a day stay recently and the vet, Susan, explained everything to me and was so thorough. The nurses also were so lovely and caring and gave him a head and ear massage which he absolutely loved and it made me feel so happy that he was so well looked after and spoilt. It gave me peace of mind when leaving him in their care. Thank you for all that you do! Hanna and Taz :)”

“Highly recommended. They treated & looked after our dog so well. We knew they were in good hands”

“My go to vet! Awsome team, if you need help ask for Jessie,”

“I was really stressful and concerned about my cat who started to show signs of not being able to open her right eye and I was worried death. So I call first thing in the morning to book an appointment for her and all the clinics are fully booked. Even Herne Bay as well of course. But what I love about them is they don't just hang off the phone telling me there's no spot for my cat, instead they provided me with some useful information on what to do and they showed care to my cat's situation ♡ I'm really grateful for the lady who answered my call this morning;) she was super helpful and lovely! Can't recommend this vet enough even ive only been there once.”

“Exceptional team of veterinary professionals. Had an acute issue with our cat recently and was impressed by the exemplary level of care, compassion, skills and leading edge resources. They threw everything at our cat in an attempt to give her every chance of recovery - nothing was spared. Special mention to Rachelle, Tracey, Annelise, Robert and Oscar - you were amazing. Thank you.”

“Everyone always takes extra ggod care of our Cosmo. He has required repeated dental work. Dr Scott is fantastic! We are grateful for Barkes Corner Vets and the quality service they provide.”

“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.”

“My cat was injured and my usual vet didn't have a spot for the same day appointment and after couple of calls to multiple clinics I was able to get an appointment here. I continued with the checkups too. All the nurses and vets I met there were wonderful - very friendly, understanding, answering all my questions, polite and knowledgeable. They were really concerned to give my cat the very best care.”

“Our dog suddenly passed away this morning, we got in contact with these guys to arrange for our furry family member to be cremated, they were so kind and caring. We just want to say thank you to the receptionist who took good care of us and spoke some very kind words. It was hard for us to leave our girl but we knew she would be in good hands. You made our day a little better after our loss. Thank you so much”

“Excellent vets, premium service, not cheap.”

“Excellent care for very reasonable cost!”

“Unfortunately our 13 yr old Maltese was ready to be reunited with his Labrador bro,s. A very sad day (week) to have to say goodbye to my great little companion, watch dog. Angela (Te Puke Vet) is the kindest caring person to Wolfie and his owners. Our appreciation and thanks goes to all at Te Puke Veterinary Centre, for the wonderful caring work they do for all our pets and animals.”

“Have spayed all 5 of our cats and done a great job!”

“All¹ better thanks to the help of this vet”

“My Mini Dachshund has been seeing Chani for Laser and Physical Rehab after IVDD back surgery. I cant recommend this place enough! Friendly, caring, helpful and most of all my little guy is getting better every day!! Happy customer :0)”

“Jana was incredible to deal with! She helped us through a really emotional time when our kitten wasn’t feeling well, and we could tell she truly cared. She took amazing care of both our little one and us.”

“Fantastic service and animal service and welfare. Helpful and friendly staff makes a stress free environment and pleasing to animals of all descriptions. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend”

“I can’t speak highly enough of the team at VSA Sylvia Park. My beloved cat Mac was only 3 1/2 but had an undiagnosed heart issue that caused an embolism. The team were incredible from the moment I rushed through the door. The receptionists were so kind - particularly Michael who is amazing at his job and went above and beyond. Mac was given urgent priority and rushed through for treatment. Bobbi our vet was so kind and compassionate to us, patiently explaining all options and not pressuring us. We felt very informed and though it broke our hearts to put Mac to sleep, we knew we were doing the right thing to end his suffering. Bobbi let me stay right to the end so I could comfort Mac, and even locked the door so we wouldn’t be disturbed. She is a true gem and I’ll never forget her kindness. I really appreciate that the team also organised paw prints, nose prints, and some of his fur in a bottle. Very special keepsakes. I never leave Google reviews but felt compelled to as I was blown away by the service. I know it must be such a tough job, so full credit to the team.”

“Always a great experience with OurVets, they are accommodating with bookings and have fit us in last minute several times over the years, and the team really care about our dogs, always greeting them when we come in and the vets being very thorough with our consults. The reception team are lovely and I wish I knew their names but one of the ladies in particular has been so helpful with the process of transferring our dogs' info over as we move to Aus. Really appreciate it!”
