Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Owners consistently praised the team for kind, compassionate care, especially during difficult end-of-life visits. Many reviews also highlight knowledgeable vets, clear advice, and good outcomes across surgery, x-rays, biopsies, exotic bird care, PennHIP and elbow scoring, and handling anxious or less social dogs. Long-term clients repeatedly described the practice as trustworthy, friendly and reliable, with several saying they had stayed for many years or would travel to attend.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

The reviews are strongly positive overall, but a few concerns stand out. One owner reported a serious complaint about puppy training handling, and another felt a nervous dog was handled without enough patience at a follow-up visit. Pricing feedback was mostly favourable, though one reviewer raised a strong concern about quotes, estimates and billing consistency, so owners may want to clarify costs in writing before treatment.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners

  • Ask for a written estimate before procedures or ongoing treatment so pricing expectations are clear.
  • Mention if your pet is nervous, reactive, or uncomfortable with certain handlers so the team can plan a slower approach.
  • For urgent issues, call early; reviews suggest the clinic has often made time when animals needed care.
  • If you need specialised services such as PennHIP, elbow scoring, x-rays, biopsies, or exotic bird care, describe the case when booking.
  • For end-of-life visits, expect compassionate support, but discuss your preferences in advance so the appointment feels as gentle as possible.

Consultation fees vary by clinic in New Zealand and are not set by a government fee schedule. ACC covers human personal injury only and does not cover pets, so call the clinic for a current quote and ask for an itemised written estimate before procedures or ongoing treatment.

Most New Zealand veterinary clinics commonly accept EFTPOS, Visa or Mastercard, contactless tap-and-go payments such as payWave or PayPass, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and cash. Some clinics may also support pet-insurance claims or payment plans, but call ahead to confirm what Kelly Andrews Veterinary Services Limited currently accepts.

Kelly Andrews Veterinary Services Limited is associated in review data with end-of-life care and euthanasia support, surgery and speying, x-rays, lump biopsies, exotic bird care, PennHIP and elbow scoring, and care for anxious or reactive dogs.
