The team at Sunset Vets are experts in palliative and end of life care and we know exactly how difficult the decision to say goodbye is. Therefore, we have put together a collection of end of life pet resources to help educate and highlight how Sunset Vets may be able to help you and your beloved pet with palliative care, or an at-home euthanasia. If you would like to speak to our compassionate team please contact us here.

Ambassador Program
We want to change the way pets are cared for at end-of-life and encourage more families to become empowered to make the best possible health care decisions for their pets. And while we’ve come a long way, there are still many families and pet lovers who don’t realise that this special type of care exists. This is where the Ambassador Program comes in.
AVPCAC
Sunset Vets is proud to be an industry partner of the Australian Veterinary Palliative Care Advisory Council (AVPCAC). We are advocates of the AVPCAC’s mission and work in partnership with the Council on a range of projects to help build community awareness about palliative care.

No matter how much time we have with our pets, it’s never going to be long enough. And although we can all attest to the fact that our pets live on forever in our memories; having something a little more permanent is something you’ll never regret.
