What to expect
At-home pet euthanasia, step by step
Not knowing what happens can be as hard as the day itself. Here is what a visit with me looks like, honestly and plainly.
You call or text me
Reach out when you are ready, even if you only have questions. You do not need to have decided anything. If I cannot answer, I will call you back personally as soon as I can.
I call you back and we talk
I will ask about your pet, how they are doing, and what you are hoping for. We pick a time that suits you, including evenings and weekends where I am available, and we talk about aftercare so it is settled in advance.
I come to your home
I arrive quietly and take my time. There is no rush. You can choose where your pet is most comfortable, whether that is their bed, the couch or the garden.
Settling your pet
First I give a sedative so your pet drifts into a deep, relaxed sleep. It is gentle, and they are not aware of what comes next. We wait as long as you want before going further.
The final injection
Once your pet is fully asleep, I give the final injection. It is quick and painless, and their heart stops within a few minutes. I will tell you each step as it happens, and I will confirm when they have gone.
Afterwards
You can stay with your pet for as long as you need. I will then look after them with care and arrange the aftercare we spoke about, whether that is cremation or home burial.

Cost
My fees depend on your pet's size, the day and travel distance. You can see them in the pricing guide.
Having family and other pets there
You are welcome to be with your pet the whole time, and so are children, relatives and other pets. Many people find other animals in the home understand more than we expect. If you would rather step out, that is fine too, and I will look after your pet gently.
What to have ready
- Your pet's favourite bed, blanket or spot.
- A few treats if they enjoy them, and nothing more elaborate than that.
- Anything you would like to keep, such as a paw print or a little fur. Just ask me.
Beyond that, you do not need to prepare anything. I bring everything else.
Whenever you are ready, I am here.
Call or text me on 0459 203 883. I will get back to you personally.
