After-Hours Pet Collection in Perth
It's late, your pet has passed away, and you're not sure what to do. Take a breath - you have time. Call us now and a real person will talk you through tonight, then arrange collection across metro Perth.
What happens when you call after hours
No answering machine, no call centre script. Here's exactly what to expect.
Any hour, any day. Tell us what happened - there are no forms to fill in first.
We'll talk through caring for your pet overnight, or arrange immediate collection where available.
Immediate in parts of metro Perth, or first thing in the morning. You choose what feels right.
ID tagging, individual cremation, and ashes hand-returned - usually within 5 working days.
If collection is arranged for the morning: move your pet to a cool room (Perth summers make this important), lay them on a towel with a waterproof layer underneath, and wrap them gently in a blanket.
Full step-by-step guide →Perth's after-hours clinics can hold your pet for us. Tell them Pet Farewell will collect, or call us and we'll phone the clinic directly - even at 2am.
How vet coordination works →Perth services are by arrangement: communal cremation from $280, individual cremation with ashes returned from $480. An after-hours collection fee may apply - we'll quote it on the phone before anything is booked.

Outside these areas? Call anyway - WA collections are arranged case by case, including the South West.
After-hours questions, answered.
Can you really collect in the middle of the night?
In much of metro Perth, yes. Where an immediate trip isn't possible, we'll walk you through caring for your pet overnight and collect first thing - the outcome for your pet is exactly the same.
Is there an extra charge for after-hours collection?
Sometimes, depending on the suburb and hour. We'll quote the exact fee on the phone before anything is booked - no surprises on the invoice.
My pet is at an emergency vet. What do I tell them?
Just say Pet Farewell will collect. Clinics can hold your pet safely, and we coordinate the pickup directly with them.
What should I do right now, before I call?
Nothing urgent. If it's warm, move your pet to a cool room and lay them on a towel. Then call whenever you're ready - we'll take it from there.

Counts come from the text of recent public Google reviews (sampled newest-first, refreshed periodically); a provider not mentioned on a factor simply was not discussed, which is not a criticism. Competitors are ordered by Google rating, ties by review count. Pet Farewell is our own service and is not rated against them; its cells state our written commitments, and we invite you to hold us to every one of them.
