Sunset Vets Palliative and End of Life Care

Sunset Palliative and End of Life Care is a dedicated palliative care and euthanasia service.
Our mission is to help families access specialised end of life pet care at home.
Additionally, our team supports families navigating a terminal diagnosis whilst ensuring pets are comfortable and are not experiencing unnecessary pain during their final months of life. In many cases, our most important role is to help families say a gentle goodbye at home. Above all our care team understands just how hard this day can be. We are committed to supporting you every step of the way.

Our network of mobile veterinarians offers compassionate and personalised care in your own home. We work in conjunction with your primary health care veterinarian and deliver additional support in the home.
Our patients include those with complicated medical needs or who are approaching the end of life.
Our clients are supported by an incredible patient care team in the head office. We are here to ensure you’re connected with the right support and services.

Our Why
End of life pet care is an emerging field of veterinary medicine and we’re dedicated to being at the forefront of it. Above all, we believe that the moments at the end of a pet’s life are to be treasured. Because of this, we are committed to helping families access a different type of care during a significantly difficult time. Time and time again, we have seen that the Sunset Vets approach equates to better outcomes for our patients and that well supported families are better equipped to respond to their grief.
Our Services
Home Euthanasia
We know that the decision to farewell a friend is not one that any pet owner makes lightly. Therefore we believe that compassionate home euthanasia is of vital importance. Our team strives to make this experience gentle for both you and your pet. Our supportive care team will help you understand all your options, guide you through your choices and support you with difficult decisions.
Palliative Care
Much like in human health, veterinary palliative care supports pets to live as well as possible. This means maintaining quality of life even in the face of advancing age or a terminal diagnosis. We provide this specialised type of care at home because we know that often when you’re unwell, home is where you want to be. Our vets work in conjunction with your primary care veterinarian to deliver support for you and your pet.
