Great people and great service. Initially, I was not sure how they start charging our pet Clifford. I joined the Pet Plus annual program. Its… Read more

worthwhile to support them and to support your pet. Their services and love for pets are incredible. Truly worth visiting them and truly they are genuine people. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a pet clinic and store. Our dog Clifford has been treated well and he is out of ear infection in one week. Many clinics I had to visit and they are hungry for money but the treatment was not adequate. I really love to encourage them to keep the same standards and love for people and for pets.

Very disappointed with my recent experience at Greencross Vets Carrara. When I booked my dog’s appointment over the phone, I clearly stated multiple… Read more

times that the appointment was for the annual tick injection only. I also explained that my dog already uses Advocate spot-on treatment because he cannot tolerate tablets, and this already covers heartworm prevention.

During the booking call, the yearly heartworm injection was briefly mentioned, but I did not agree to it and reiterated that I only wanted the tick injection.

As I work night shifts, my partner brought my dog to the appointment for me. My dog was then given a yearly heartworm injection anyway, without my consent. I have since confirmed with my partner that nobody discussed this additional treatment with him or asked for approval before administering it.

I have now been charged for a treatment I did not authorise, my dog was unnecessarily subjected to two injections instead of one, and I still need to continue using Advocate regardless because it covers the intestinal worms he still requires protection for.

What upset me most was feeling completely unheard throughout the process. At no stage did anyone contact me to clarify anything despite my instructions being clear during the booking call.

I would strongly encourage clearer communication and proper consent processes moving forward.

updated throughout the journey from Melbourne to Brisbane.

Both cats arrived home safely, and it was clear the staff genuinely cared about their wellbeing. A special thank you to Erin Whitford for the support and communication during the process.

We really appreciate all the help in reuniting our family. Highly recommended for anyone needing pet transport in Australia!

Madpaws makes finding the right sitter so easy. No hassle payment on completion of the sit. Anita and Eric sent photos and couple times a day which stopped me from worrying about my fur babies. Highly recommend

Dogtainers were amazing with shipping our new puppy from Melbourne to Darwin in a very short timeframe! They assisted us with our questions and… Read more

concerns. We've never shipped a dog before so this was a very new process for us, but they made it insanely easy! One thing I do wish they had as a service for peace of mind, would be to send a generic or automatic update's saying "Your dog has been collected and is on the way to the airport", Your dog has boarded the flight and has an eta of ##hrs", "Your dog has reached its destination, if you haven't orgainsed pickup transport, please make your way to collect". We were worried on how things were going for our puppy throughout the travel, but other than that the team at dogtainers were really good and will be using them again in future!

boxes. Bank details which it won't accept and verification. There are no sitters on this site in my area but they won't help me on the phone! They just keep sending me instructions that I can't follow which is why I contacted them. The answer was they don't offer phone support.

week, no applications. I also contacted nearly 30 sitters, either no reply or were not available. Tried another site that allows free ads, and had 4 applications in just a few days. Aussie House Sitters is a waste of money.

I booked a flight for my pug at short notice using Aeropets and was initially grateful for their support. Unfortunately our dog did not get a fit to… Read more

fly sign off as required by the airlines and I lost my entire $800 payment. I felt that their booking staff were misleading about the risk of booking my dog in without fit to fly, had I known I would not have booked and paid $800 upfront. They have not responded to my email requests to consider my case for a refund and their customer service beyond this point has been lacking. Predatory pricing practices exist in this industry so I would just say be very careful before booking your pet in with this company.

Jodie is an exceptional cat groomer. She is incredibly gentle, professional, and genuinely caring in the way she handles animals. My cat is highly… Read more

anxious and usually doesn’t tolerate grooming well at all, but he did amazingly with Jodie.

Jodie is very responsive to enquiries, which makes the whole process smooth and reassuring. What really stood out is her ethical, pet-first approach - you can tell she truly prioritises the wellbeing and comfort of the animals in her care.

The fact that she comes to you is a huge bonus, so convenient and much less stressful for pets. On top of that, her pricing is very fair for the level of care and service she provides.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jodie to anyone, especially if you have a nervous or sensitive cat.

stressed out when we leave them there. They are placed together at night and duing the day they are placed into an enclosure with similarly small dogs. The staff are very responsive to email and send photos if the dogs are there for more than a week. Highly recommend.

Benny Bunny enjoyed his recent stay! – Thanks to the team at Sydney Petlands for looking after Benny recently. Leaving a bunny for boarding is stressful, however the team were great, he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay.

I supervised the euthanasia of an 18 year old Lab. I would give the vet, Winnie 10 stars. She above and beyond. The cremation truck didn’t turn up, so Winnie took the body to her own home for pick up. They deserve - 10 stars.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE. We brought our cat to Animal Referral Hospital during an emergency expecting urgent care, answers, and competent… Read more

veterinary treatment. Instead, we were met with uncertainty, constant pressure for more expensive procedures, and a bill of almost $3000 without anyone being able to tell us what was actually wrong with him.

The treating vets repeatedly pushed antivenom despite being unable to confirm a snake bite and without providing us with any clear diagnosis. We felt as though every conversation was centred around the next charge rather than proper assessment of our animal.

Thankfully, we trusted our instincts and sought a second opinion elsewhere.

Within a short assessment, another veterinarian was able to determine that our cat had suffered an insect bite — not snake envenomation — and advised that the antivenom Animal Referral Hospital was pushing was unnecessary and could have caused further complications. Our cat was treated appropriately with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication and was sent home.

To spend thousands of dollars at an emergency referral hospital and leave with no diagnosis, no answers, and recommendations for treatment that were later found to be unnecessary is beyond unacceptable.

After reading through many other customer experiences, it is deeply concerning to see a repeated pattern of owners reporting excessive charges, poor communication, lack of diagnosis, and feeling pressured into costly treatment plans. (ProductReview.com.au)

This hospital appears far more focused on extracting money from distressed pet owners than providing clear, competent and ethical veterinary care.

We left feeling taken advantage of, financially exploited, and terrified that had we agreed to everything being pushed on us, our cat may have been subjected to unnecessary and harmful treatment.

I would never return and would strongly encourage others to seek a second opinion before agreeing to any major treatment recommendations from this hospital.

You won't find better – You won't find better care for your fur baby than the team at Greystanes Vet. Our rescue Staffy is a highly anxious boy yet the entire team manage him beautifully. He doesn't even register when he has had his vaccination.

I have a 15-month-old Kerry Blue Terrier, Fionnagáin, who recently developed a rather large lipoma (fatty lump) near his tail, and he also requires… Read more

desexing.

Even though I now live almost three hours away, I did not hesitate to contact Dr Phan, as I know he is among the very best in his field.

I have known Dr Phan for many years, and he has provided exceptional care for all my beloved four-legged companions: Ania, my Kerry Blue Terrier; Mikkie-Lyon, my Wire-Haired Fox Terrier; and Clément, my beautiful Airedale Terrier.

From the moment I called, his genuine warmth and willingness to help were evident. That level of care and attentiveness has always been consistent over the years.

Despite moving from inner Melbourne to regional Victoria, I have chosen to continue using their services. My dog is not just a pet—he is my family and my best friend.

Dr Phan possesses qualities that are increasingly rare: he is ethical, compassionate, and truly sees each animal as a member of someone’s family. His pricing is also very fair, and he shows genuine consideration for pensioners and those who may be struggling, ensuring their beloved companions still receive the care they deserve.

What stands out most is his approach—he does not rush into surgery unless it is absolutely necessary, unlike others who may proceed without fully exploring all options first. That level of integrity speaks volumes.

The service and care provided by the entire team are simply outstanding.

I highly recommend this veterinary clinic. The care they provide means everything to me, especially as I live alone here in Australia.

Thank you, Dr Phan and team VetCare Hawthorn. Without your understanding and compassion, I would not have the comfort of having my dear companions by my side in the way that I do.

I would also encourage anyone who has experienced such dedicated and exceptional service from Dr Phan and his team to share their experience on ProductReview.com.au. Supporting them helps ensure that this wonderful level of care continues for many years to come.

Kindest of Regards Jean-Claude de Shablé

an emergency vet he stopped breathing. Attempted to give IV fluids however they could not find a vein because of his low blood pressure and just put it under the skin and then did not tell me they could not find the vein and instead said how they put it in some lump no clue what that means as there was no lump. They then wanted to run an MRI, ultra sound and x ray for well over 2.5k and keep my cat over night so they could charge me even more. I took him to an emergency vet hospital and they did an ultra sound for 150 finding no internal bleeding, but he has a bruised lung and I think the antibiotic they gave him caused an allergic reaction as he was struggling to breathe. I think he would have had a better chance to live if I did not take him to these pet hating people and just attempted to do first aid myself. Horrible vet do not take your pet to them if you love them or if you like having money, these people will drain your account to the best of their ability.

Too expensive compared to other vets – Staff are nice and the facility is good. But the cost of desexing my dog was close to double the price of any of the other vets. I would of gone… Read more

elsewhere if l knew this before l took her there. After a friend commented that the price was outrageous l called 7 other local vets for pricing, and yes my friend was correct. Even the other vets were shocked when l told them how much l was charged. Yes l probably should of shopped around but l never dreamed someone would charge twice the amount and trusted that this was the cost l would incur anywhere.

I have used this dog minder service many times for both day and night stays and I have had nothing but had great experiences and received a friendly service. Would highly recommend this dog sitter.
