Our personalised support
Caring for a beloved pet can be incredibly rewarding, yet sometimes overwhelming and lonely. Paws & Perspective provides a unique space for pet owners to navigate pet care information, talk through difficult decisions, and feel truly heard and supported.
Understanding vet information
Complex medical terms, test results, treatment plans – it’s easy to feel lost or miss crucial details. We'll talk through what your veterinarian has told you, ensuring you feel confident and informed about your pet's health journey.
Emotional comfort
Paws & Perspective offers calm, compassionate companionship — someone who can be there to listen to you, your concerns, and your pet’s story.
Navigating difficult decisions
Too many options, fear of regret, guilt about cost or time… difficult decisions can be paralysing. Paws & Perspective offers an unhurried space to explore your options, clarify priorities, and feel confident in your choices.
Tailored sessions, flexible locations
Every session is unhurried and entirely tailored to your needs. We focus on listening to your concerns and exploring solutions that fit your unique situation and preferences.
Sessions are available in your home, out for a walk, at a local coffee shop, or via video call, throughout Auckland, New Zealand.
"Georgie at Paws & Perspective provided invaluable support during a really challenging time. Her ability to explain complex vet information in a clear, compassionate way made all the difference for me and my family."
Auckland dog owner
"As someone who cares for my cat alone, I felt nervous about asking questions or admitting how worried I was. Georgie created a warm, calm space where I could talk freely and feel understood. Her support gave me clarity and comfort, and the session was completely worth it."

Our unique perspective
Unlike medical consultations or purely emotional support, Paws & Perspective sits in the space between. As a veterinarian by training, I offer non-clinical, one-on-one support for pet owners in Auckland. I set up this service because, during work as a vet, my colleagues and I often feel frustrated and saddened that we cannot provide the time and emotional comfort many clients truly need — veterinary appointments are back-to-back, and there simply isn’t space to slow down. Paws & Perspective fills that gap. This service is not for second medical opinions, consultations or veterinary complaints; it’s for those seeking calm, clarity, and a steady companion on their pet’s journey, especially if you feel overwhelmed or have limited emotional support.
