Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners most often praised the team for being friendly, helpful, caring and communicative. Several reviews describe pets being well looked after, with one owner noting their puppy was kept warm, fed and monitored, and another saying their dog was treated carefully. Practical service also came through positively, including quick responses, easy parking and a grooming visit where the owner was happy with the result.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
The reviews are mostly positive, but a small number of concerns were raised. One reviewer felt the clinic was more focused on money than animal care, while another noted that overhanging trees by the driveway scratched their vehicle despite otherwise easy access and good parking. Pricing was only mentioned twice, with one positive comment about reasonable costs and one negative value concern, so that theme should be read cautiously.

Coast Vets Ltd is in Wairoa, Hawke's Bay 4108. No train, ferry or light-rail station was found within walking distance, so driving is likely the most practical option; street parking is typically available nearby, but check local signage and be mindful of driveway access and overhanging trees. For public transport, check Google Maps for the nearest bus route before travelling.
Coast Vets Ltd is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and Saturday from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Sunday hours were not listed, so call ahead to confirm availability before visiting.

Veterinary consultation fees in New Zealand vary by clinic and are not regulated by a government fee schedule. Call Coast Vets Ltd for a current quote, and for procedures or ongoing treatment, ask for an itemised written estimate before agreeing to care. ACC covers human personal injury only and does not cover pets, so owners usually rely on private pet insurance or general payment-plan options where available.
Most New Zealand vet clinics commonly accept EFTPOS, Visa or Mastercard, contactless tap-and-go such as payWave or PayPass, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and cash, but payment options can vary. Call ahead to confirm what Coast Vets Ltd currently accepts, and ask generally about pet-insurance claims or payment-plan options if needed.
Coast Vets Ltd is described as providing general small animal veterinary care, puppy care and recovery support, dog grooming, client education and care tips, and small-town veterinary service. If your pet needs a specific treatment or grooming appointment, call to enquire before visiting.
Street parking is typically available near Coast Vets Ltd, as no nearby paid parking lot was found in the provided parking data. Check local parking signs when you arrive, and take care around driveway access because one review mentioned overhanging trees scratching a vehicle.
Coast Vets Ltd is rated 4.6 out of 5 from 34 reviews. Pet owners often praised the friendly, helpful and caring team, clear communication, quick responses, easy parking and good care for puppies and dogs, though a small number of reviews raised concerns about value and driveway access.
