Pets in Wellington

“There is nothing better than seeing your dog react to someone the same way they would as if seeing you. Lottie was so absolutely over the moon to see Luca again that I knew signing her up for Welly Dogs was the right decision. I have absolute peace of mind that Lottie is safe, taken care of and having an absolute blast when she is in the care of Welly Dogs. The social media updates also keep me in the loop of her antics with her friends. THE BEST.”

“What a wonderful place to stay in Wellington. We stayed here for two nights and were extremely satisfied. The welcome was warm, and the owners were very friendly. The room had a private bathroom down the hall and a personal fridge in another room. All facilities were adequately provided. The owner joins you for breakfast in the morning, which always led to enjoyable conversations. The B&B also has a fantastic view of the bay; you're right by the water. We parked our car on the street near the B&B for two nights, which was safe and, of course, cost nothing. To get to Wellington Center, you'll need an Uber or taxi.”

“Amazing service from Marion who really is great with cats. We had to go on a European tour for 6 weeks and both our cats where looked after and we got weekly updates on their progress would recommend 100%”

“Was able to drive by here on our holiday. Wish we could have stayed. Was told this was where Peter Jackson used to living in Wellington.”

“Top notch venue, done very well. Very professional and friendly staff. Delicious fare.”

“Four Small Paws has given an excellent service for both of my cavoodles. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They have taken notice of each dogs personality and given me feed back regarding how they have got on each day.”

“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!”

“great concept! cool fish and delicious pizza”

“It was an excellent culinary experience. The owner was extremely welcoming. The Indian food as well as the lamb was amazing. I highly recommend stopping by. The menu was very diverse, so, if you have a group that has difficulty finding a restaurant, this may be the place for you. The interior was nice and kept clean.”

“I recently visited Extra Extracafe and was genuinely impressed. The coffee was rich and flavorful, brewed to perfection, and the food was equally delightful—fresh, well-prepared, and full of taste. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff made the experience even better with their friendly and attentive service. A great spot for both a quick coffee break and a relaxed meal. Highly recommended!”

“great selection of wines and spirits at very competitive prices. Bought a bottle of Jamesons whiskey that had been stored in old stout barrels for less than $45”

“Great store, huge variety at good pricing with friendly helpful service. Just bought an office chair. We've had one of theirs for a while and they are great chairs. Hence being a repeat customer. There are a variety of different styles to suit different body shapes with a variety of price levels. All with adjustable just about everything and optional aspects, like head rests. I can't go past the lumbar support and durability. Thanks Lower Hutt branch!”

“Good service, Very helpful team. Thanks again team”

“Always cheerful and always happy to help whenI visit the store. The manager is extremely knowledgeable and will step out to offer advice when one is not sure what is needed. My favourite pharmacy.”

“I have never been treated so well before, this chemist have been one of the best chemist to deal with, very friendly, helpful and just awesome recommend to everyone also they seem to be pretty awesomely priced compared to others around locally.”

“Super friendly and helpful staff. I always come here whenever I need medication or first aid supplies. Definitely check them out!”

“Excellent staff and affordable pricing, good communication and usually able to get appointments promptly. The staff at Carevets Kilbirnie showed such kindness and compassion when I had to make the decision to put my cat down, and made a really difficult time a lot easier. Highly recommend.”

“Our company sends people to Wellington most months. We find Terrace Villas the most practical place to stay. The apartments are spacious and comfortable. We are easily able to conduct our business from the apartments and the management is ready to help with anything we need - we often hold meetings with our clients and they find the surroundings pleasant and relaxed.

“I had been to the after hours pharmacy and didn’t get much help at all unfortunately they were the only pharmacy open so the next day I thought I’d see if Avalon pharmacy would be able to help me and my word they were fabulous the young man working that day SAM whom I’ve since discovered is the owner is truely one in a million he was kind caring and really knowledgeable he made me feel as though nothing was a problem he also gave me some tremendous advise If ever you need to go to a pharmacy and don’t know where to go I highly recommend AVALON PHARMACY !”

“I have been to quite a few different vets and I can say hands down that they have been the best to deal with. We have to purchase our cat's food from a vet and this clinic has been the only one who can keep on top of their stock and not make it a huge deal for us to need to purchase it from them! They are also helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and compassionate when our pet needs them. They also have amazing and accessible opening hours. It's so nice to be able to deal with a company who understand many people work 9-5 and simply can't make it during work hours. I highly recommend them!”

“I was really nervous to send my doggie back to daycare after some bad experiences at other places that have had lasting (probably lifetime) consequences. My pup has some anxieties, fears and isn’t always confident in life which sometimes translates to misunderstood reactivity. Paw Palace took extra time and effort to understand my worries, walk me through their days and process. They also never once had any judgement about his past or his breed. They have clearly given him so much love and support because he absolutely loves it there, always rushes in without hesitation and is never too exhausted when he gets home. I’ve only had reports of him being a good boy, that he’s really come out of his shell and with no behavioural issues! I’ve noticed a huge improvement in his socialising, he is reading other dogs much more appropriately and is super responsive with his recall! We’ve even been able to go back to off-lead areas again and he’s warming up to strangers more quickly too. Thank you again for all your hard work, I’m really proud of how far he has come and the dog he’s grown up to be :)”

“Our doggos spent the weekend at The Dog Bach, and they had a wonderful time. The staff share photos on their Facebook page during the stay, and provide a detailed run down on how they went when you pick them up. Very dog-focused, which we really valued. We will definitely book here again and would highly recommend.”

“Have had excellent service here. Always take the time to give context to recommendations and work within what is practical solutions-wise. Everyone is really personable and very good with my elderly cat. Would absolutely recommend.”

“Very friendly and wonderful staff. We took our cat in after her surgery to stay the night to check her breathing. Our cat is sassy and very feisty but the staff were patient with her and understanding of her needs. They took care of her, monitored and gave her medications. Very grateful and thankful for the staff that looked after our cat Baby.”

“Came in today to put my cat down who I’ve had my whole life. She was 18 years old and it was time to make the decision. I am super happy with the experience, the staff were amazing and made it a great positive experience given my first time doing this. They had even given me copies of her paw prints and some of her fur to take. 10/10 experience.”

“We have had so many positive experiences with Valley Cottage Vets for our two cats (who can both be quite high maintenance and complicated). Really glad we moved here after stressful vet visits in other clinics. Alix has the kindest nature towards animals and the whole team goes above and beyond. Thank you!”

“Richard is the best vet so kind caring and understanding. Good friendly staff.”

“The team are amazing both with animals and humans. The support we have had during our adoption process and afterwards is second to none.”

“Such caring, compasionate and professional staff. They took such great care of Willa in her final hours.”

“Tina the vet was amazing and explained things very clearly. The receptionists were very friendly as well.”
