Fair Care.
Clinical care brings expertise, safety and solutions. At the end of a pet's life, what matters more is comfort, calm and dignity.
We come to you. In your home, on your sofa, in the garden, wherever your pet is most at peace. The whole visit happens at home, in your pet's own time.
Our promise to Oldham families is simple: clear standards, honest pricing, and the time and space to say goodbye properly.
Every visit follows the same gentle process, delivered by an RCVS-qualified vet.
You know exactly what to expect at every stage, including aftercare and cremation.
Real prices shown by pet size. No call-out charges and no surprises.
We allow as long as your family needs. This is never rushed.
Covering OL1, OL2, OL4, OL8, OL9& surrounding postcodes
Oldham climbs into the western edge of the Pennines and the homes we visit here have the sloping, stone-fronted feel of a town built on the hill. Many of the families we see live in long-resident terraces in Werneth, Coppice and Glodwick, semis around Royton and Chadderton, or the higher streets of Lees and Springhead where the Saddleworth villages start. The dogs we are asked to see have often walked the country park at Dovestone, the canal at Failsworth, Tandle Hill or the long climb up onto Slaithwaite Moor for years; the cats are usually long-resident in a single back room of a terraced house off Yorkshire Street or Manchester Road. By the time families ring, putting your pet in the car for a clinic visit up the A627 is rarely what they want for the last appointment. We cover Oldham itself across OL1 to OL9, including Werneth, Coppice, Glodwick, Hollinwood, Salem, Royton, Shaw, Chadderton, Lees, Springhead and Grotton, and we travel out to Failsworth, Crompton and the Saddleworth villages of Greenfield, Uppermill and Diggle. Our vets are RCVS-registered. Sedation is used first so your pet is asleep before anything else, and the appointment is unhurried. Cremation is arranged through a trusted Greater Manchester crematorium, with private or communal options. The number on this page is the Manchester line, answered by a person who books our local vets for Oldham home visits.
Areas we visit
Not sure if we cover your village? Phone the local number and we will let you know.
Three steps. We handle everything around the clinical care so your family can focus on being there.
Speak to a calm, experienced team member on the local number, or message on WhatsApp. We help you plan timing and answer any questions before anything is booked.
An RCVS-qualified vet arrives at the agreed time, explains gently what will happen, gives a sedative first, and takes as long as your family needs.
If you have chosen cremation, we co-ordinate everything with a trusted partner. Ashes returned, or communal cremation if you prefer.
Honest, transparent pricing
Fair care means fair pricing. Here is exactly what a home visit costs in Oldham. Out-of-hours covers evenings, nights and early mornings, and any time at weekends or on bank holidays. Only one of these is ever added.
Travel is a flat £39 however far we travel, so there is never any extra mileage to work out.
These fees are for the at-home euthanasia appointment only and do not include cremation or aftercare. We can arrange cremation and aftercare for you if you wish, and we will provide a clear quote for those services before you book, so you know the full cost before confirming the appointment.

One of the hardest questions any family faces. Our free Quality of Life Assessment walks you through the signs vets look for, mobility, appetite, comfort, interest in surroundings. You are also welcome to phone and talk it through. There is no pressure either way.
Most visits across Oldham and the surrounding area are booked same-day, often within a couple of hours. Pre-planned visits for a specific day and time are also available. For urgent, out-of-hours situations the local number is answered from 8am to 8pm.
Your vet arrives, introduces themselves quietly, and takes a few minutes to explain what will happen. They give your pet a gentle sedative first, so they become relaxed and sleepy, usually resting in your arms or on their bed. Only then is the final injection given, and your pet slips away peacefully. We never rush this.
Out-of-hours and same-day visits carry a small surcharge (£70 each, or £89 combined, and £100 overnight). The visit fee itself is the same regardless of day or time.
Yes, if you would like. Many families find it helpful to say goodbye together. We take your lead on who is present and make sure everyone feels comfortable, including other pets in the household.
We co-ordinate everything. You can choose individual cremation (ashes returned to you), communal cremation (no ashes returned), or home burial if that is what you prefer. No pressure, just the options explained clearly.
We work to whatever timescale suits the family rather than to a fixed arrival window. When you phone us, we usually have a vet confirmed for you within around twenty minutes, and then the visit is booked for the time you have asked for, whether that is later the same day, this evening, or a quieter morning slot. If you would like someone as soon as possible, say so on the call and we will tell you the earliest we can be there.
Yes, Werneth sits within our Oldham cover area and we visit there regularly. If you are right on the edge of where the Oldham team reaches, please phone the local number first to confirm. Most postcodes around Oldham are covered without a travel surcharge, and we will be straight with you if a different local team would actually get to you faster.
