Our mission is to ensure that older people, those living with terminal illness, and their beloved companions never have to face the sorrow of parting from their beloved companion due to lack of support.
As well as offering owners the loving solution to make arrangements for their pet’s future knowing that they will always be cared for in a home-from-home environment. 
Although our headquarters are based in Cornwall…
We join hands with owners and volunteers nationwide, united by a shared goal—to give every pet the love and care they deserve.
Together, we create a space where both pets and people feel nurtured, safe, and supported, ensuring this heartfelt mission is fulfilled.
For this reason, our registration process is thoughtfully detailed, allowing us to understand everyone involved on a deeper level. By doing so, we ensure minimal distress and provide the utmost comfort and peace of mind for all.
