Today was one of the hardest days, as I had to say goodbye to one of my own beloved dogs, Jilly.

My little gang of three doggie amigos is now down to two, and home will just feel so much quieter tonight without her.

As a vet, I’ve helped countless families say goodbye to their much-loved pets. But today, I was reminded just how heartbreaking it is when it’s your own.

One of the biggest reasons I started Fetch the Vet was because I wanted pets to have the opportunity to cross the rainbow bridge peacefully, surrounded by love, familiar smells, their favourite people, and all the comforts of home. Just a gentle, dignified goodbye in the place they’ve always felt safest.

Today, I was grateful to be able to give Jilly that very same gift on her favourite heated bed in the lounge room, with Georgie, Woody, and Bella by her side. ❤️

At Fetch the Vet, we don’t just understand the medical side of saying goodbye. We understand the heartbreak, the tears, the difficult decisions, and the enormous hole they leave behind.

For our pets, we are their whole world. So when the time comes, the very least we can do is make their final moments as peaceful and full of love as possible.

Three doggie amigos, now two. Forever one missing, forever loved. x

🐾 Some good news for your wallet (and your pets!) 💚

We know the cost of living is putting significant pressure on households - and unfortunately, looking after our pets isn’t getting any cheaper either.

So, Dr Ben has been working hard behind the scenes with our medication suppliers to see where we could make a difference.

The result? He's negotiated better pricing on 55 medications - and we’re passing those savings directly on to you by REDUCING THEIR COST 🎉

That means 55 commonly used medications are now cheaper through Fetch the Vet, helping make ongoing treatment and veterinary care a little more affordable.

No gimmicks. No limited-time sale. Just better pricing where we can make it happen.

After all, we see you and your pets as part of our family and we’ve got your back!

Remember that if your pet is on prescription medication, you can directly order it and have it delivered for free by visiting https://www.fetchthevet.com.au/prescriptions

It’s official…Fetch the Vet has been named a finalist in the 2026 Greater Shepparton Business Excellence Awards!

What started as an idea to make veterinary care calmer, easier, more affordable and personal by bringing it directly to pets in their own homes has grown into something I’m incredibly proud of.

Being recognised alongside so many fantastic local businesses is a huge honour - especially for a small, locally owned business that is less than a year old.

A massive thank you to every pet parent who has welcomed me into their home, trusted me with their pets, recommended Fetch the Vet to a friend, shared a post or left a kind review. Your support has helped build this business from the ground up.

And, of course, thank you to all the wonderful pets who make this the best job!

Whatever happens on awards night, being a finalist already feels like a pretty special milestone!

Thanks also to the Greater Shepparton Business Network and the Shepparton Club.

The hardest goodbye deserves the gentlest care.

One day, you'll pick your best friend up for the very last time. The paws that followed you from room to room. The tail that wagged every time you walked through the door. The face that greeted you on your hardest days and somehow made everything feel a little better.

They've spent their whole life loving you without asking for anything in return. When the time comes to say goodbye, they deserve the same unconditional love.

Home euthanasia allows your beloved companion to remain where they feel safest - wrapped in their favourite blanket, surrounded by familiar scents, gentle voices, and the people who have been their whole world. There is no stressful and emotional clinic visit or rushed farewells. Just peace, love, and the chance to say goodbye in the place they call home.

At Fetch the Vet, we consider it a privilege to help families through one of life's most difficult moments. We take the time to ensure your pet's final moments are filled with comfort, dignity and love, while supporting you every step of the way.

The greatest act of love is knowing when it's time to let them rest.

If you're beginning to wonder whether it's time, or you simply need someone to talk to, please reach out. We're here to listen, guide and support you with compassion during every step of the way.

🐷 Breaking News: We may have been lied to about the word “miniature.” 😂

Meet Petunia…the gorgeous not-so-miniature pig!

While most of our days are filled with dogs and cats, every now and then we get a patient who keeps us on our toes…or should we say, hooves!

Dr Ben visited Petunia for a much-needed hoof trim. After a little sedation to help keep her calm and comfortable, she had her pedicure, then soaked up plenty of post-treatment cuddles and TLC.

Hoof care is an important part of keeping pet pigs healthy and mobile. Overgrown hooves can become painful, affect the way they walk, and lead to long-term joint and foot problems if left untreated.

Safe to say, Petunia tipped the scales for “biggest cuddle of the week”… and we wouldn’t have it any other way! 🐽

Meet gorgeous little Josie! 🐈‍⬛

As she is her family’s very first kitten, we spent plenty of time chatting about everything that comes with welcoming a kitten into a home. From nutrition, vaccinations, parasite prevention, litter training to environmental enrichment, there was lots to cover.

One of our favourite parts of being a mobile vet is having the time to answer questions and help owners feel confident as they start this exciting journey with their new family member right in the comfort of their own home.

Josie is lucky to have such caring owners, and we can’t wait to watch her grow. ❤️

Mornings don’t get much better than coffee and puppies!

Health checks and vaccinations for this gorgeous litter of 9 Labrador puppies - 8 black and 1 golden superstar stealing the spotlight! Plus Mum, a chocolate Lab, joined in to oversee the whole visit with Dr Ben.

Lots of tail wags, puppy cuddles, and thorough health checks to make sure these little adventurers are off to the best possible start in life.

It’s days like these that remind us why we love bringing veterinary care directly to your home. Who wouldn’t want puppies as their workmates for the morning? 🐶❤️
