How the end of life care program works

Planning and enrolment

Enroll your dog in our End of Life Care Program by filling out the enrollment form below. This form gathers essential information about your dog’s needs, preferences, and medical history to help us provide the best possible care. Our team will then contact you to discuss the next steps.

Can I meet potential foster carers?

Yes, we encourage you to visit us and meet our team and foster carers. This helps to ensure you feel comfortable with the care your dog will receive.

Can I provide instructions for my dog's care?

Absolutely. We encourage you to share detailed information about your dog’s routine, preferences, and any special requirements. This helps us provide the best care and maintain your dog’s familiar routine.

Seamless transition

Upon your passing, we coordinate with your designated contacts to bring your dog into our care. We prioritize minimal disruption to your dog’s life, providing a familiar and comforting environment as they adjust.

Foster carer placement

Your dog will be placed with one of our experienced foster carers who are prepared to offer a loving and stable home. This foster placement ensures your dog receives immediate care and attention during the transition period.

Adoption into a new home

While in foster care, we actively seek a permanent, loving home for your dog. We conduct thorough assessments and meet-and-greets to find the best possible match, ensuring your dog’s happiness and well-being.
