Veterinary-Specific Expertise

Our veterinarian and three veterinary support staff members are available for both home and clinic euthanasia services throughout the greater Cape Town area. Sick or injured animals can also be collected via our ambulance service for the purpose of euthanasia.

We also offer equine euthanasia, carried out with the support of our specialised veterinary vehicle.

Launching the GreenDepart Project

The GreenDepart Project is a collaborative initiative between EarthPet and Compass Medical Waste Services, established to provide an environmentally responsible and compassionate alternative to traditional pet burial practices.

Our mission is to replace harmful practices such as mass cremation and the dumping on landfills with a safer, greener, and more compassionate alternative. This approach not only reduces pollution and public health risks, but also restores dignity to the end-of-life process for beloved companion animals.

Sponsorship of the GreenDepart Project offers not only brand visibility but also the chance to fund access to dignified pet burial services for animal welfare organisations and rescues, allowing them to focus more of their resources on caring for animals still alive.

To learn more or explore sponsorship opportunities, contact us at fundraising@greendepart.co.za
