Post Entry Quarantine (PEQ) Private Vet Visit Across Melbourne
Bringing a pet from overseas is an exciting milestone — but before they can really make themselves at home, they need to undergo Australia’s compulsory Post Entry Quarantine (PEQ) process. If your pet is entering the PEQ facility in Mickleham, a PEQ private vet visit is often required to ensure their transition post-quarantine. That’s where Anivet Care steps in.
Anivet Care’s PEQ private vet visits in Melbourne are designed to deliver expert care, documentation, and reassurance during your pet’s quarantine period.
What Is a PEQ Private Vet Visit?
Once you and your pet have arrived in Australia from overseas, they will need to undergo a 10-30 day quarantine (depending on the country they are traveling from) at the government-operated Post Entry Quarantine Facility (PEQ) at Mickleham in Victoria. During this time, you may require a private vet visit if:
- Your pet has a pre-existing medical condition.
- A diagnostic or treatment follow-up is required.
- You want to have an independent health assessment.
- The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) requests a private consultation.
At Anivet Care, our experienced mobile vet is authorised to make private vet visits at the PEQ facility, providing your pet with professional and timely attention within the regulatory framework.
