The loss of our Sophie girl was horrible and heartbreaking enough without processing the thought of "mass cremation"... arranged by the Vet. Furry Friend Farewells - Pet Cremations put my mind at ease from the beginning that she would be looked after from the point of pickup until she was returned home to me. Having AfterPay was also helpful during a difficult time where I didn't have to worry about being able to cover the unexpected cost outright and I could get her home ASAP! Thank you Furry Friends for your care and dedication in what you do! <3read more

We found ourselves on a Saturday in a terrible situation where our long standing family member needed to be put down.... It then came up about what to do with her after she went to doggy heaven. In all the emotions, our vet sent our details to Furry Friends and within no time I had a phone call and a plan set that worked for us and what we could manage financially. The staff we encountered were so friendly and caring. Even dropped her back home to us with a caring smile in only a couple of days. I never want to think of us having to use them again but we know where we will go without a doubt.read more

Thank you for bringing our boy home.

My family and I have found it difficult after our boy crossed the rainbow... bridge on July 26th but we are so thankful to the team at Furry Friends Farewells for bringing him home to us. He left his cat brother and his human family behind and we all miss him dearly as he was such an important part of our family for the past 14 years.

We each got a set of prints and hair, and we got his ashes which sit next to his collar, leash and ‘Blind but Happy’ bandanna.

We organised everything on the day we said goodbye. He was picked up a couple hours after we said goodbye to him and we had him home with us within 2 weeks. We were referred to them by our neighbours and friends who had used them before.

We had to use Furry friends for our beautiful dog Honey at the beginning of February. It was already a difficult... decision to euthanase her but between the wonderful support from the vets, then the amazing support from furry friends it made everything easier. The care that was taken when we dropped her off to when she came home was outstanding. We then had to use them again at the beginning of April when our beautiful bunny Benedict unexpectedly passed away during his desexing operation. The care we have received both times has been so beautiful and incredibly. I honestly wouldn’t take my pets anywhere else. Thank you 😊read more

Our first contact and use of website was all smooth sailing. We submitted our order and had put our beautiful boy in... storage at emergency vet as Anzac public holiday. Had his ashes delivered today, however we had ordered for his paw prints to be taken. I wanted it tattooed and to be a replica of my boy. Called up ask where it was they were very relaxed saying probably fell out during delivery in car, only to receive call to advise they never took his prints! I am willing to accept some degree of human error but this is your job, you’re area of expertise to make the loss process easier, instead you have taken that chance from me. I can’t look at his prints, I can’t get a replica done on my foot, I can’t and my family can’t get any comfort from the situation I’ve been put in thanks to your negligence.
You came highly recommended but I will never recommend your service.

The service you don't want to ever have to use, but the one you need when the time comes. We said goodbye to our 15... year old Weimeraner this April and it was a gut wrenching time. I'd heard such incredible things about Furry Friend Farewells that we really wanted to see if it was worth the 4 hour round trip to have our boy treated right.

Speaking to them in preparation made me realise they were the right people for the job. Whenever I asked a question; "Sure, whatever you need", when I changed the time; "No problem, we're here when you need us", when I asked if I could come early on Saturday morning; "Yes, what works for you".

After an emotional pickup from the vets, 2 hour drive up from Sydney I was greeted with the sort of compassion, respect that you need in that moment. Kylie and Sean treat your pet like the member of the family it is, with grace, from lifting out of the car, to placing on the table to say your final goodbyes. They see the beauty in your pets final stages that I found to be so comforting and it immediately made me feel better.

I left knowing we'd made the right decision to drive all that way and the after care was exceptional too. It represented a level of closure for me and our family and I know Sean and Kylie go above and beyond to do that with intention for all their clients. Our memento's will also give our family a way to remember our boy for ever.

I only wish they ran a bottle shop, serviced cars, cut hair and did all the other items I need that don't you to lose a portion of your heart and soul!

Can't recommend them enough. I would drive 8+ hours each way again to have Kylie and Sean look after our pets.

We took Dylan to Furry Friends Farewells at Beresfield, we cannot recommend them highly enough. They provided a beautiful memorial for Dylan and treated him with dignity. When you have to say goodbye to your pet please think of Kylie and Sean at Furry Friends Farewells. Thank you…

I would recommend furry friend farewells to anyone with a furry friend going to rainbows bridge.. They were very accommodating and caring.. They allowed us time to grieve and cry… they explained the processed and answered all my questions, and listen to my Mavericks storey…

it’s the hardest process to leave a pet and say your final good byes.. but both Kylie and Sean were very helpful, respectful and caring.. they allowed us to say our goodbyes the way we wanted to.. thank you so much x

Kylie and fury friend farewells really provided a caring and empathetic service in an extremely hard and sad time for me.

I was totally devastated when I had to suddenly put my fur baby down Buffy on Monday! I called and spoke to
Kylie, she was super lovely and easy to deal with. I’m surprised she could even understand me while I sobbed away. Kylie collected Buffy and was gentle and caring. Very understanding.

Hello I would like to thank all the people that made my great loss of my little Pomeranian Teacup Missy. You did help me in all I needed to do for her with picking her up from her vet then to your kind and wonderful care of her. Then you brought her home to me. With the care and compassion you showed not only to my Missy myself also. I will not hesitate to tell my friends about the wonderful business you have.
