Our service

Gentle veterinary care, without the clinic journey.

An at-home visit gives your pet the chance to remain in familiar surroundings and gives your family privacy, time and support through each step.

What to expect

A calm, unhurried visit

Every pet and family is different. This is the usual shape of a visit, with time and flexibility built in.

01

Before the visit

We will ask about your pet, their health, your location and what support you need. We arrange a time that suits the family and veterinarian, and explain how to prepare without making the home feel clinical.

02

Arrival and settling

The veterinarian will meet you and your pet, talk through the plan and answer any questions. There is time to choose a comfortable place and help your pet settle.

03

Comforting sedation

A gentle sedative is given first so your pet can become deeply relaxed and sleepy with you beside them.

04

The final step

Once your pet is completely comfortable, the final medication is given. The veterinarian will quietly confirm when your pet has passed.

05

Time afterwards

There is no need to rush. You can take the time you need before your chosen aftercare arrangements begin.

Common questions

It is okay to be unsure.

We can talk through your pet's individual circumstances before an appointment is arranged.

Next steps

Tell us about your pet and where you are.
