Gentle in-home comfort, hospice & euthanasia care for ageing and unwell pets.

We provide hospice and palliative care support and peaceful at home euthanasia for pets and families on the Central Coast.

Because every pet deserves gentle care in
life’s final chapter.

Why choose
Comfy Critters Home Vet?

When your pet is getting older or becomes unwell, it can feel like you’re stuck between two options: try to fix it or say goodbye.

But there’s usually another way - a gentler path that focuses on comfort, connection and quality of life.

At Comfy Critters, we focus exclusively on senior pets, offering slow, personalised care at home - where you both feel most safe and settled. Whether you’re seeking reassurance, symptom relief, or support through those last days, we’re here to walk that path with you.

What makes us different?

  • Unhurried appointments: we take the time your pet needs (and then some)

  • Fear-free handling: gentle care at home in familiar surroundings

  • Clear, practical guidance: we help you understand what’s going on and make a plan together about what to do next

  • Grief and legacy support: after a lifetime of love, your pet deserves a goodbye that’s just as meaningful. We offer space for reflection, gentle rituals and ongoing care as your honour their life and navigate grief

  • Holistic end-of-life care: it’s not just about one day. We support you and your pet through the lead-up, the farewell, and the grief that follows

This isn’t just vet care.

It’s compassionate, whole-of-life support - for both of you.

Dr Alison Comfy Critters Home Vet Central Coast Mobile Veterinary In Home Euthanasia Gentle In Home Care

Meet Dr Allie

Hi, I’m Allie, the vet behind Comfy Critters (and this is my sweet cat, Ori).

My heart is in caring for senior pets and the families who love them. I know how hard it can be to face changes, make tough decisions, and prepare for goodbyes.

I believe every pet and their family deserves comfort, dignity and love right to the very end.

Before becoming a vet, I worked as a teacher, ranger and science communicator. Whatever the role, it has always been about animals, people and connection. Now I bring that same curiosity and care into veterinary medicine, blending clinical knowledge with compassion and a deep respect for the bond we share with our pets.

I created Comfy Critters to give families more than medicine. My goal is to offer time, guidance and gentle support through one of the most meaningful chapters of life with your pet.
