Pets in the City

"Our puppy went from a timid crying puppy to a completely PITC addict within only a couple of weeks. The staff are like a second family to our pup & she is always so so excited to see them. Couldn’t recommend them more!"

"My dachshund Ali has stayed at Pets in the City Wairau Park several times, staff are great and welcoming - Alfie gets through the door and can’t wait to get in. Highly recommend"

"Murphy and Cato recently stayed at Pets in the City Wairau for boarding with daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, attentive, and clearly passionate about dogs. They took the time to get to know both Murphy and Cato’s personalities, which immediately put me at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pets in the City Wairau to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality dog boarding with daycare. Murphy and Cato will definitely be back!"

"Absolutely OBSESSED with our groomer Yana 🐾 Our fur baby comes out strutting like an absolute king every single time - fresh, fluffy, and full of attitude! You can really tell how much love and care goes into the whole process, because he’s always so happy and excited to go back (which says everything!). Highly, highly recommend if you want your pet looking and feeling like royalty 👑✨"

"Our family dog adjusted well, she loves going to their dog daycare a couple times per week. Loves it. Staff are great and welcoming, always updates how your dog is doing. Riley loves making new friends. Great place for your fur babies to get plenty of exercise along with rest areas too. Pets in the city at Wairau have a great set up for all dog breeds, and a outdoor playground area as well , plus a dog pool. Riley gets excited when we arrive to check her in. Safe environment. Highly recommend"

"My dog loves going to this daycare and I really appreciate the flexibility with drop off and pick up. We are all very happy 😊 🐶"

"Our dog has the best cut and blow dry out! He looks sooo good after! Can't thank these amazing ladies enough!"

"She came back looking beautiful and soft. Great groom."

"Thank you for the wonderful grooming of our Spoodle. He always looks fantastic. Such a professional job."

"Kerry is the absolute best groomer. Technically excellent but her kind and caring way with her furry clients is fantastic. The reception staff are very efficient and personable."

"Luna comes home looking the real Spoodle deal from a groom at Pets in the City Wairau. Kerry really knows her stuff and our wee girl looks a treat and appears quite chilled with her experience."

"Thanks for taking such care and time with our Roscoe! He looks brilliant – no more dreads! One very tidy looking pup!"

"Best place for dog grooming."

"Shout out to Yana for taking such great care of our fur baby! We really appreciate the care and attention she gave. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind with pets."

"First time cut for wee Stitch. I was a bit nervous at how he would behave, but we're thrilled that Stitch not only looked amazing but also behaved exceptionally well during the grooming session."

"Excellent service, and so accommodating – going out of their way to assist when difficulties arise. We've never had any concerns when we've dropped our Lexi off to stay over the last ten years."

"Louis our miniature schnauzer had a great stay for a week. He was well looked after and we could enjoy our holiday without worrying about him. The daily photos on Facebook were great and we could see that he looked happy each day playing with his new friends."

"Our 6 month old puppy had to stay for an extended period while we were away for family reasons. I was worried about leaving him at such a young age so started off with a day a week for a couple of weeks so he could get used to being there. He had an amazing time, made lots of friends and even picked up some new behaviours during his stay!"

"Our puppy Polar Bear loved being here when we went away for a week. He had an upset stomach while in there, and they took him to the vet and took great care of him. We will definitely be using them again."

"Great training support for my little spoodle. He suddenly became anxious going into daycare after 3+ years. Some training sessions with Laura to boost his confidence and re-train his thought process has done wonders!"

"This training has been rewarding for both Blue and Mum and Dad. We've consistently seen an improvement and it has guided us how to keep the training ongoing with the weekly reporting tips. It doesn't take up much of our time yet it is easy to incorporate – and the bond we've developed with Blue through this process has been special."

"Jess is becoming braver with other dogs since starting at Pets in the City. The staff are wonderful, kind and supportive. After a day there she sleeps so peacefully."

"Love taking my dog here for daycare and the hotel. The team take wonderful care of him and happily provide advice and tips for things we can practice at home to help him be his best."

"Best doggy daycare in Auckland hands down! Professional, safe, fun and friendly. 10/10."

"My boy Larry the Lab loves coming to your doggy daycare, as you are all so kind and cheerful. He is always happily exhausted at the end of the day."

"I picked up a very happy and tired pup at the end of a long day at daycare. We'll definitely be making this a regular thing."

"Great service and fantastic staff! Our pup loves coming to Pets in the City Wairau."

"Had a daycare stay during the week. Staff were great to talk to. Drop off and pickup was efficient. My small, confident dog was fine in with the other dogs and the facility was clean and welcoming."

"First day for my pup – felt very at ease with the staff and their friendliness. A mid-morning phone call to let me know how he was doing was great and I really appreciated all the feedback. He's looking forward to his next visit! Recommend 100%."

"Great daycare service. They vet the dogs beforehand to ensure they suit daycare and put them in the appropriate area for their size. Dog came back happy – and not smelling too bad – so we are happy!"

"Pets in the City is by far the best dog daycare on the Shore. The team genuinely care and make your dog's stay exciting and something they look forward to. Every time we picked up our Penny, she genuinely didn't want to leave the fun she was having."

"We just wanted to say a big thank you to Kerry at Pets in the City for the amazing job she does grooming my mum's dog, Teddy. Every time he visits, he comes home looking absolutely perfect. We truly appreciate the time and effort she puts in – she's fantastic at what she does. Highly recommend!"

"We use the grooming service for our Japanese Spitz – Kerry does a great job. Our pup was a matted mess when we first started and now she has a beautiful coat. Highly recommend."

"Murphy came out looking gorgeous once again. Thank you Robin!"

"GROOMING with Yana – from a matted mess, to a blonde beauty. Can even tell he's a goodboy! Thank you Yana!"

"Love coming here. Our little dog Lily looks amazing thanks to Claire grooming her. Very happy with the outstanding service."

"We stumbled upon Pets in the City Wairau with our one year old Labrador but man did we win with this one. Bear is absolutely loving daycare here and the team are brilliant. From daycare raves with his mates to nail trims and hotel stays — we're so glad we found them."

"My pup loves it here! Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about my puppy's needs. He always comes home so happy and we love that they post daily updates with plenty of photos on their FB page."

"Amazing staff who seem to genuinely care about our boy Murphy. He enjoys both daycare and hotel stays and is always so happy (but exhausted!) when we pick him up. Murphy has attended daycare regularly since he was a puppy and we can see the difference it's made."

"First time cut for wee Stitch. I was a bit nervous as he is still going through puppy school. I am absolutely amazed at what he looks like — your staff did an amazing job! I will come back again."

"Our pups stayed at the Doggy Hotel for a month and 10 days. They were well looked after — we loved seeing pictures of them every day on the Facebook page! So happy that they were so well looked after! 100% will book them in again."

"My pup can't wait to visit Pets in the City! The staff are super friendly and all have nicknames for my dog — I can tell she's taken care of while she's at daycare."
