Where to from here?
Send us a text message, email or call us. We don’t take long to reply.
We’ll schedule a time to have a free 10 minute chat with an experienced vet, to help ease any worries you have, and to help you select the best path forward for your pet. If you’d rather skip this, that is fine too.
Once you’ve decided what works best for you, we’ll take care of all of the organisation, including transport and aftercare. We’ll keep in close contact with you throughout, so you won’t have to stress.
Why Choose Us?
Every pet is unique, and so they should be treated that way. Our aim at Hold My Paws is to provide a caring, personal service for your pet, and to support you and your family as you go through the difficult journey of saying goodbye. Pets are family to us too, and we’re here to help as much as we can. You can rest assured that you’re in good hands.
1. An individualised Approach
We understand that every pet is an individual, and we tailor our services to match your pet's needs - be it a palliative care plan, or a gentle home euthanasia. We’re all human, so our personalised approach doesn't stop with your pet; we also take into account the unique dynamics of your family and will work around your preferences.
2. Fear-Free Philosophy
Your pet’s comfort is paramount to us. Our team is highly competent and adept at kind and stress-free handling of pets of all breeds and sizes. From cats and dogs to rabbits and birds, we have the knowledge, understanding, and compassion to cater to the unique needs of each animal in the least stressful way. Your pet will be looked after with utmost care and love.
3. Comprehensive Services
We offer complete end-of-life care to ensure that you’re well supported as you undertake this final journey with your beloved pet. From your initial contact with us to palliative care, euthanasia, and aftercare, we make sure that everything for your pet is well taken care of.
4. Convenience and Flexibility
We know how difficult it can be to gather the entire family for a final trip into a vet clinic, as well as how distressing it can be trying to bundle a pet in pain into the car. It is much more private and comfortable to be at home, for everyone involved. This is why we offer flexible scheduling options for our services, often late into the night. We are available seven days a week and are happy to accommodate time preferences. Your pet and family’s comfort are our top priorities.
5. Peace of Mind
Entrusting your pet to someone else's care can be a daunting decision. We understand that trust is crucial, which is why we go the extra mile to provide you with peace of mind. We believe in open and ongoing communication with our clients, so you can rest assured that your pet is in the best of hands, always.
