Searches

There are two main searches available:
Plain text search
Use the search menu option for a basic word search.

You can search by various means - Examples:
  • part of a word - LEGGED, to get a business name - 4 Legged fun Limited
  • Suburb - HENDERSON, to get any businesses in Henderson auckland.
You can do part of road names or other types of searches - try it out.

Map search
use the map search under the Directory menu.

Select what region you want to look in, eg: Auckland.

The screen will refresh, and you will get a second list you can select for the services - Eg: Cattery.

The map on the left will show you how many businesses are in the database that are known to have that service. Use the Google icons to zoom in and move the map. Click on a red icon, and information about that business will be displayed in the main window.
Cant find your local pet store, or service ? why dont you tell us and it will be added shortly.

Screen - Directory

Help for the http://animals.kwister.com/directory directory (or map search).

If i search for a region, businesses in other regions appear on the Google map.
  • There are a number of businesses that have one specific physical location, however they conduct services nationwide. A search on a region will bring up all the businesses in that region, as well as nation-wide busineses.

We are adding new information regularly to the website. if your local business is not listed (use the search features above), please tell me. Please log in to our website and then our contact form for general queries. You can also add new businesses.

You can also use our facebook page at the bottom of this page to contact us, however this does not provide an online form to complete with the available information we are recording.

If you are the owner/operator of a business, we will like you to log in using the registered address we hold for you, and advise/update all of the services your business provides.

If someone is looking for Auckland >> Manicure service for their pets, and you do not have manicure in your business listing (and you do perform that service), you wont be found.

View screen

Some issues when you are viewing our view screen - EG: http://animals.kwister.com/view/(number)

No image showing
The image area above the map on the left side of the screen, is intended for the logo of the business/activity.

At present, please email us directly with a bmp/gif/jpg image of your logo. Please try to shrink the size down if you can.

No map showing
Usually a website of a business clearly advises that the address displayed is the actual address where the business/service is located. A map is generated/shown for this business activity.

Sometimes we are aware of an address - but this may be the home-location of the main officer of the business, but it may not be the actual address where the business is conducted.
If you are the owner / manager of the business activity, please contact us to advise if you want the map shown, and the address/location of the actual business activity you want the map to direct people to.
