Sunset Vets Palliative and End of Life Care (Sunset Vets) is a dedicated palliative care and home euthanasia service. We help families access expert end-of-life care for their pets within the comfort of home.

Our head office is based in the Sunshine Coast and in addition to our wonderful support team, Sunset Vets is made up of experienced palliative care veterinarians who facilitate at-home euthanasia and end-of-life care in the Sunshine Coast.

This often means we support families navigate a terminal diagnosis as well as ensuring pets are comfortable and not experiencing unnecessary pain during the final months of their life. In many cases, our most important role is to help families say a gentle goodbye at home. Sunset Vets is made up of a supportive care team who truly understand how hard that day can be.

We are here to help Sunshine Coast families with peaceful, planned home euthanasia, palliative care services and counselling and support if needed.

Sunshine Coast Services

In Home Euthanasia

The decision to say goodbye to a beloved pet is difficult and it’s one that no owner takes lightly. With our support, it’s one you’ll never have to make alone.

We will assist you in facilitating a compassionate in-home euthanasia for your beautiful pet.

Palliative Care

At Sunset Vets we have found that approximately one in five pets had not visited a veterinary clinic within a year of the end of their life. Our palliative care service helps close this gap. Along with postponing pre-emptive euthanasia, the service maintains the patient’s quality of life and comfort.

Grief Support

The Sunset Vets team know how difficult goodbyes are and we are here to provide help and advice for any counselling and support services you may need.This includes supporting you through the care-giving phase or guiding you through the difficult process of letting go.

Testimonials

Such an amazing, wonderful and supportive team. Saying goodbye to my little girl was hard, but the Sunset team took so much of the burden. They helped arrange cremation at a time when I could barely get 2 words out between sobs and were patient and helpful when I changed my mind about what time I wanted them to come. I will sing their praises until I'm hoarse and will tell everyone I meet.

Absolutely outstanding care, compassion and support given by Dr Jackie and her team! Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you for making a very difficult time much more bearable with such care :)

Thank you so much for looking after our family so well over the past years. Thank you for helping us through this most difficult decision and process. Your sensitivity and professionalism helped so much. The pain and the emptiness is almost unbearable but we have so very many happy, happy memories to treasure. Guess we'll just have to bring in the mail and the papers ourselves now! With thanks again.

Thankyou doesn't seem enough to convey our heartfelt gratitude for the outstanding care you have given Eddie. Your compassion and support helped us navigate what was for us a truly traumatic day and for that we will be forever grateful. So thankyou to the whole team for everything you have done as well as all the knowledge you have shared which enabled us to give Eddie such a happy and healthy life.

Thank you to the extraordinary team at Sunset Vets who provided a high level of care and compassion when we recently had to say goodbye to our 14-year-old girl, Jewel. Allowing her to go at home in familiar surroundings made the process less stressful for her, our younger dog and ourselves. Special thanks to Ashlee for her compassionate manner on the phone (who arranged this for us at short notice)... and Dr Jan who was gentle and caring when it mattered most. We're grateful you've provided this service on the Sunshine Coast.
