Farewell From Home
Afterhours home euthanasia service
Farewell From Home specialises in providing a compassionate and peaceful farewell to a beloved member of your family during the night when regular veterinary clinics and home euthanasia services are not avaliable. The service is avaliable 6pm to 6am Friday, Saturday and Sunday, as well as public holidays, and can be booked at any time. The service is conducted by Dr Jarrod Caldwell, an emergency veterinarian surgeon, who will be on call (contactable) throughout our servicable times.
About Dr. Jarrod
Every animal deserves a peaceful passing, regardless of the time.
Dr Jarrod is an emergency and critical care practitioner and found that home euthanasia services are not always readily available during the emergency hours; therefore, he founded Farewell From Home with the mission of providing an opportunity for owners to grant their beloved dogs and cats a compassionate and peaceful passing regardless of the day or time. Jarrod is on call between 6pm to 6am Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On call means you if require our services at any time, Jarrod is just a phone call away.
Aftercare
There are several options available for aftercare from a variety of crematoriums, such as Lawnswood.
-
Private cremation where ashes are returned to you.
-
Private cremation where ashes are not returned, but you will be able to request memorabilia such as fur clipping, paw prints and plaques
-
General cremation where ashes are not returned to you and memorabilia are not available
-
Home burial.
Often, the decision is difficult to make at the time. Farewell From Home offers a service where we care for your pet for up to 48 hours whilst you process and come to terms with your loss.​
