We recommend caution of any service that requires payment before they will help you find your pet.

Please read the free advice on this site. Below there are links to resouces available in New Zealand. Facebook listings are completely free.
The NZCAR charges to be listed on the database, however the SPCA, many reputable rescues and some breeders include this cost in your adoption fee. You can check if your microchip is registered by calling 0508 567873.

New Zealand is very fortunate to have a large lost pet support network on facebook. The New Zealand Lost Pet Register is a free service run by volunteers all over New Zealand. If you are not familiar with social media one of the NZLPR volunteers can post the pet notice for you. This is an amazing service and is highly recommended.
