Pet store in Wellington

“great shopping got all I needed. good prices. gotta love Woolies!”

“I just wanted to give a big kudos to the tall fella Connor who served me yesterday. He made me feel welcome the whole time and could certainly accomodate for a friendly conversation. Handsome young fella as well, I think my daughter might have fallen for him. In future I’ll come back just for him. Great work young man, shoot for the stars!!!”

“Right at the heart of Lambton Quay is this compact supermarket that has the basic items you often require. It isn’t huge but enough to stock up your pantry or cook up a simple meal. Love their fresh bakery and there’s often a crowd during lunchtime on a weekday. The checkout is very efficient and you won’t be in line for a long time which helps during the mad rush.”

“Staff at this store are one of its best assets There is a pool of staff members who have been here for years and they never seem to tire giving great customer service. .I often see them helping older people etc with such care and patience. If something isn’t quite right it’s not a problem to help Well done guys. It’s one of the reasons I shop at Woolworth Karori.”

“Always able to find what I need to from a full groceries cart to the milk and bread for the week. COUNTDOWN in general is really great. From baked goods to frozen goods, start the countdown! Hahaha”

“⭐ Excellent Service at Kmart! I went to Kmart to exchange an item but had lost my receipt. Chinnu was incredibly helpful — she went the extra mile to find my transaction even though I had the wrong date. Her patience and dedication made the whole process so easy. Super service — thank you, Chinnu!”

“Good open late so always go shopping here after work”

“Just want to say thank you so much to the young girl on security this afternoon around 5pm. She was super helpful, i had my baby as well as a full trolley and some chairs and other items to carry to my ute. She willingly helped me without having to be asked and did it all with a smile on her face. Big ups to her, 10/10 customer service.”

“Always well staffed with friendly faces. Online shopping has good subs for unavailable products (a rare issue), clearance sections are better than any other supermarket I've found in Wellington Region! Store always looks clean and is comfortable.”

“Another small town Countdown in direct competition to a solid New World across the road. This Countdown has stiff competition in Waikanae but shines through with its excellent bakery and service. Highly recommended”

“More than compensating for their delapidated and about-to-be-replaced building, the staff at this Countdown supermarket are invariably friendly and helpful. Prices are competitive and the range of goods and stock levels generally very good. Features a superb bakery, with a variety of mouth-watering treats always on offer!”

“An example of excellent customer retention, the value of good people, and a drive to "make things right". Oliver (assistant manager, Petoni) won me over after my absolutely terrible service at the Lower Hutt branch - almost forcing me to demand refunds for a Tawa desk I bought with a woman whom I struggled to communicate with and appeared to have the decision-making capability of a deer stuck in the headlights of an oncoming car, and identified as a manager named "Kalkatana". In frustration, I called their 0800 number and after me misidentifying the branch in my fluster (I am new to Wellington), was put in contact with Oliver Munn from Petoni (only a few weeks on the job) and their management team sorted out everything. He even delivered the desk to me. He was apologetic, courteous and has retained me as a "Warehouse Stationery" customer with his quick thinking and decisive action. I will be buying more from Petoni branch, never again from Lower Hutt until changes are made. Thanks, Oliver - and I assume the branch manager had some part in this too! Thanks!”

“Wow. Ordered online and the feed arrived at grazing before I did! Fantastic service from Red Barn. The lovely team goes out of their way to help. Huge timesaver. So glad I found them.”

“The service here is amazing. Great staff. Friendly service. Very professional.”

“I almost never write reviews, but the great service I've had here deserved an exception. The folks at Wellington Compounding Pharmacy have been consistently friendly, helpful, and accommodating, especially Edward. I'm sure to be a lifelong customer. Thanks you guys!”

“This man is absolutely amazing- Chris has always been such a pleasure to deal with. So friendly and welcoming. The Waterloo community are lucky to have him.”

“On Monday 22 September 2025, the team at the Animal Medical Centre worked for over 3 hours to remove LFC - liquid filling concrete - from the paws and other places of my cat Morgan La Fay. When Morgan got home and had recovered from sedation, she was completely back to normal. How Morgan came to walk through LFC is a long story which I will not recount. I do need to say 2 things, though, to make clear what a miracle the team achieved. The first is that, by the time I got her to the vet on Monday afternoon, the LFC had been on her paws and other places for 24 hours. She sounded like a ballet dancer en pointe when she walked around and kept hitting her ear with her back paw when trying to scratch it. The second is that Morgan is a cat with a very definite list of "nots" - do not walk towards me, do not pick me up, do not put me in a cage, do not leave me with strangers, do not touch my paws ... and on it goes. I knew she would have to be in a crush cage and I knew that even crush cages have their limits. The AMC team got all the hard-baked concrete off Morgan and left her with no ill-effects. That truly was a magnificent piece of work. I cannot speak highly enough of their ingenuity, patience, dedication, and veterinary knowledge and I am deeply grateful to them all. Thank you again to everyone who helped.”

“Great kai for my dogs have been shopping here for years, will continue. One of the staff can be a bit abrupt and a know it all but I ignore her.”

“Great shop for pets. Good food items. Highly recommend. ❤️”

“The team at Clive's are always super lovely and helpful, regardless of whether it's in person or over the phone. I am a massive fan of the online repeat prescription form and the collection and reminder texts that you send - so simple but makes a massive difference when you're always on the go! :)”

“This was the nicest hotel from our holiday in NZ. From the moment we stepped in the door, service was excellent. Having a laundry machine in the room was a huge bonus to refresh our suitcase. Location was wonderful; we only walked a few minutes to get anywhere. Highly recommended hotel in Wellington!”

“VitaPet Purrfit Ultra Odour Control Clumping Cat Litter is the best in terms of clumping and odour control at it’s price point. It clumps fast so litter doesn’t go to waste thus lasting much longer and clean ups are easy.”

“I can only comment on mail order, since we are Dr Rozencwajgs' clients from the US, but very happy with this dispensary. Michael is very responsive and the rates are very reasonable too. Fulfilment is prompt and so is shipping. Will buy again”

“Fantastic pharmacy. Staff are incredibly knowledgable, helpful and friendly. I love the freshness of the pharmacy, such a nice space and so welcoming to visit. A lot of thought has gone into the range and it's great to be able to do refills, buy drinks and tonics and go natural. Keep up the great work team! I'll be in as often as I can!”

“Billy miniature schnauzer loves coming here as he is treated like a celebrity whether for grooming, vaccinations or checkups. Staff are wonderful so know he is given the best of care. Wouldn't go anywhere else.”

“Bought a dog coat for my dog Dolly. She'd had a rather severe groom and was freezing. So nice to be able to take Dolly into the shop and try them on. Really nice service and good quality goods.”

“After an number of years of attending CareVets Kapiti, the staff are still as kind kind-hearted and attentive as the first time we visited the clinic. Thank you so much!”

“Has to be the best pharmacy around. All the ladies are super helpful especially Lesley. Lots of fantastic gifts at good prices too”
