Our Location

Pet Rest Cremations is located on Sippy Creek Rd, Tanawha within the same grounds as the Sunshine Coast Animal Refuge. Sippy Creek rd is approximately 1km north of Aussie World.

*The road has again changed! As it is currently being managed regularly, it is best to just follow the signs that the council have put up. Follow the signs to Frizzo connection road.

From Southbound- Follow signs to Sippy Downs and then to Sippy Creek rd. From Northbound (highway) take the Sippy downs exit and follow it straight ahead to Sippy Creek rd. From the motorway, follow the signs to Gympie but turn left towards the Sippy Creek rd sign. If you are in doubt, please just give us a call and we can direct you. Just don’t follow the GPS or Google maps- they are not up to date with the changes.

 Once you are on the right road, you will be parallel to the highway. Sippy Creek rd is then on your right approximately 500m. You will see signs directing you to our office.

On the road the new direction is fairly straightforward however please don’t rely on your GPS as it will take you to the wrong area.

 If you have any difficulties, just call the office on  5439 6111 and someone will help you.

I know everyone is probably sick of hearing about ticks! I know we are constantly posting and talking about it. However when you go into vet clinics constantly and they tell you how many cases they have had, or hear from families about the cost of a pet in vet care for days on drips and medication… or you see families and kids devastated at the loss of a young pet due to tick paralysis. Not every so often…multiple times a week. We can’t help but to want to talk about it. Tick paralysis is very prevalent on the Sunshine Coast. Some areas are worse than others, however they are everywhere. Our own dogs have had multiple ticks this season already and that is with all the necessary precautions. A good check over every few days, tick prevention medication and a rinse with Fidos regularly is the best way to lower the risk. I can’t promise we won’t post about ticks again… if it reminds one family to check, it’s worth it.

As many small family business owners know, there is always more work to do! Especially when your business is open 365 days a year! I am so lucky to have an incredible team who are the ones caring for pets day in day out. The website has been an ongoing labour of love for Pet Rest for many years and last week I had a little win with the product catalogue for our lovely urns! I have been trying to have as much information and images up there as possible so it is easy to make a selection that is suitable for your beloved pets. If you get a spare minute, are looking for an urn or are just curious as to what we have, please pop over to our site and have a squiz! It would really mean so much to me!

Snakes are on the move! They are just the most fascinating creatures and a vital part of our eco-system however overly curious dogs and cats + scared or hungry snakes just = a bad situation. Not-so-obvious signs of a snake bite include: vomiting, shaking or twitching, extreme weakness, dilated pupils, blood in their urine. (Some of these also occur in tick paralysis) If you are concerned that your pet may have been bitten by a snake it is crucial that they see a vet immediately. There are numerous afterhours vet clinics on the Sunshine Coast including AES Noosa, @animalemergencyservice AES Tanawha and @northcoastvetemergency (Sippy Downs)

At 11 am on 11 November 1918 the guns on the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare. The allied armies had driven the German invaders back, having inflicted heavy defeats upon them over the preceding four months. In November the Germans called for an armistice (suspension of fighting) in order to secure a peace settlement. They accepted allied terms that amounted to unconditional surrender. The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month attained a special significance in the post-war years. The moment when hostilities ceased on the Western Front became universally associated with the remembrance of those who had died in the war. This first modern world conflict had brought about the mobilisation of over 70 million people and left between 9 and 13 million dead, perhaps as many as one-third of them with no known grave. The allied nations chose this day and time for the commemoration of their war dead. https://www.awm.gov.au/commemoration/remembrance-day/traditions We will remember them.

For many dogs, storms are scary! Unfortunately many dogs run given half a chance in a scary situation just like a storm. The weather over the last few days has shown us that now is the time to make sure your pets microchip details are up to date and if possible have your phone number on your pets collar. If your dog goes missing in a storm, firstly call your local vet or emergency vet to get your details listed should someone bring him/her in, secondly send Sunshine Coast Lost Pet Register (on facebook) a message so they can put a listing up online for you. They have a large following and are very effective at reuniting pets should someone find him/her. Thirdly, contact your local pound as soon as you can to get your information listed. Stay safe Sunshine Coasters ♥ To view or change your pets microchip details, contact your vet for the microchip company and number and it is all able to be done online from there.
