Kind Words From The Families We’ve Helped

Because sometimes the hardest goodbye can be made a little gentler.

At Paws Forever, we know that saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the most difficult experiences a family can face.

It is an enormous privilege to be invited into your home during such a deeply personal moment. Our aim is always to make your pet’s final moments peaceful, gentle and dignified — while giving you the time, space and support you need to say goodbye in your own way.

Over the years, hundreds of families have trusted Paws Forever with their beloved companions.

Many have kindly taken the time to share their experiences with us.

Here are just some of their words:

“Incredibly skilled, calm and caring.”

“We recently made the heart-breaking decision to euthanise our beloved cat, Tommy after all medical interventions to save him were exhausted. It had already been a real emotional roller coaster before we made the decision to end his life.

Kirsty was incredibly skilled, calm and caring at a very difficult time. Could not recommend her service enough. We are very grateful, thank you!”

— Tony Isaacs

“We would give Paws Forever ten stars if we could.”

“We would give Paws Forever ten stars if we could. When it was time to say goodbye to our beloved elderly cat Princi, Dr Kirsty couldn’t have been kinder, gentler or more professional. She talked us through everything beforehand, made sure Princi was calm and comfortable, and gave us all the time we needed. We can’t thank her enough, and we recommend her without hesitation to anyone facing this with their own pet.”

— Peter Coleman

“You deserve a million stars.”

“Our family is extremely grateful for the compassion, kindness and care from Kirsty and Janice during this most difficult time in our lives. We don’t know how we would have navigated this without both of them. Kirsty was extremely patient and she radiated so much care we and our beloved dog knew we were in good hands. Thank you Paws Forever, you deserve a million stars.”

“A very sad and emotional calm came across us all.”

“Last Saturday evening at 6.30pm, the difficult decision was made to let our loved by all the family, our French bulldog of 11 years to put to rest after a bad diagnosis of the past few weeks. We reached out to Kirsty at Paws Forever, who arrived 2hrs later at 8.30pm. Once Kirsty discussed with the family and especially our daughter who was Bella love, a very sad and emotional calm came across us all, knowing we made the right call for Bella emotional farewell.

To Kirsty, you were amazing over the hour you spent with us all, and the way you respected and treated Bella. Again, thank you Kirsty for coming on short notice on a Saturday evening and making our Sunday morning reflection so much easier on Bella passing.”

— Crewes and Mort Families

“I’ll never forget your kindness.”

“There are simply no words to thank Kirsty at Paws Forever.

Saying goodbye to our beloved German Shepherd, Leo, after 12 incredible years together was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. From the very first phone call, Kirsty showed genuine compassion, patience and kindness. She treated Leo with the dignity and respect he deserved, and she gave me the time and space I needed during such a heartbreaking moment.

Every part of the process was handled with professionalism, care and empathy. Knowing Leo was in such gentle hands gave me enormous comfort during an incredibly difficult time.

Thank you, Kirsty, for looking after my best friend with so much love and respect. I’ll never forget your kindness, and I couldn’t recommend Paws Forever more highly to anyone facing the heartbreaking loss of a beloved pet.”

— Nicola Romano

“I’d give this business 10 stars if I had the option.”

“I am so happy that I chose Paws Forever Veterinary Pet Home Euthanasia Melbourne. Kirsty’s handling of the situation was everything anyone requiring a euthanasia service could ask for and more.

She was hyper sensitive to my situation from the moment she walked through the door to the moment she left my home. My pet and every animal deserves a Kirsty to assist them in such a profound way.

I’d give this business 10 stars if I had the option. Thank you with all my heart xxx”

— Jason M

“She really made the experience as peaceful as possible.”

“Dr Kirsty was able to come on short notice after my dog, Ebony went downhill quickly and was understanding and kind during every step. She really made the experience as peaceful as possible and we will always be grateful to Dr Kirsty for giving Ebony comfort and dignity during her final moments.”

— Jessica K
