Our Services
Our service is focused on compassionate and caring home euthanasia for dogs and cats. We operate in Melbourne and suburbs, between the hours of 9am and 11pm every day. Our aim is to provide a service that is as calm, pain free and nurturing as we can possibly make it for your pet and for you.
Our Vet, Dr Amy Jeffreys, will examine your pet and if euthanasia is indicated, she will give an injection of sedation under the skin or into the muscle. Sedation is important to ensure your pet is calm, peaceful and in no distress before the final injection is given. The sedation should take about 5-10 minutes to have an effect, during which time you can cuddle and comfort your pet as much you wish. Once your pet is fully sedated and when you let her know you are ready, Dr Amy will place a catheter into a vein in his or her front leg so there is good access to administer the injection.
We are aware that end of life issues have become increasingly important for pet owners, as advanced medical treatments and improved nutrition are extending pets' lives into old age.
We have a close relationship with an experienced pet cremation service who provide aftercare and memorial services and in partnership with this company we can provide individual cremation, shared cremation or burial.
We are happy to refer you to various grief and bereavement counselling services including:
