About Us

We are a family owned practice based in Guildford, Surrey, specialised in providing the best environment for you and your family to give the last act of love to your four-legged best friend.

Our Values

  • Compassion

    Compassion stands as the cornerstone of our animal euthanasia, recognising the right to a dignified departure from this world. When faced with the difficult decision of putting to sleep your companion, we will prioritize their well-being above all else.

    Compassion guides us to alleviate their pain and suffering, offering a final act of kindness and mercy. It ensures that we approach euthanasia with empathy, understanding the emotional bond between you and your animal friend, and the deep sense of responsibility we hold as caregivers.

  • Peace

    We honour the lives of our beloved companions, embracing our duty to provide them with a peaceful and gentle transition, filled with love, tenderness, and the utmost respect for their individual journey.

    At our clinic, we hold a profound commitment to ensuring a peaceful and stress-free farewell. By offering in-home euthanasia services, we provide a compassionate setting where you and your beloved companion can set the pace, without any undue pressure or distress. This personalized approach allows for a more intimate and comfortable experience, ensuring that the farewell is carried out with care and consideration for the emotional well-being of both you and your companion.

  • Transparency

    We recognise the significance of clarity in explaining the process, addressing any concerns or questions, and ensuring that pet owners are well-informed every step of the way. Our compassionate veterinarians take the time to provide clear explanations, discussing the procedure, its purpose, and what to expect, enabling pet owners to make informed decisions with confidence and peace of mind.

    By fostering an atmosphere of openness and clarity, we strive to alleviate any uncertainty or anxiety surrounding the euthanasia process, allowing both pets and their owners to approach this deeply emotional journey with understanding, acceptance, and a sense of empowerment.

Why Valinor?

Valinor, a name derived from J.R.R. Tolkien's literary masterpiece “The Silmarillion”, is an enchanting realm that holds profound significance in the world of animal euthanasia. Valinor is a land of eternal bliss and peace, a place where the wearied and worthy souls find solace and rejuvenation.

In our pursuit to create an euthanasia clinic with a deep commitment to compassion and empathy, we drew inspiration from the concept of Valinor. Just as Valinor served as a sanctuary for those seeking respite from the burdens of life, our clinic aspires to provide a sanctuary for animals, a place where their suffering can be alleviated with utmost care and dignity. We firmly believe that when an animal's quality of life has significantly deteriorated, and there is no hope for improvement, euthanasia can be a compassionate and ethical choice to spare them further suffering.

At Valinor, we understand the weight of the decisions that guardians face when considering euthanasia for their beloved companions. Our dedicated team of veterinary professionals approaches each case with empathy, providing comprehensive consultations and support. We prioritize open and honest communication, ensuring that you are well-informed and empowered to make the most compassionate decision for their animal.

In honouring the spirit of Valinor, we strive to create an environment that promotes emotional healing and understanding. Our clinic offers resources to help caregivers navigate the complex emotions that arise during this difficult time. We recognise that the loss of a cherished animal companion can be deeply profound, and our aim is to provide solace and comfort throughout the entire process.

Valinor serves as a testament to the deep love we hold for our animal companions, guiding them towards a gentle and serene passage as they embark on their next journey beyond this world.
