Local, personal, and here when you need us.
Sweet Farewell is built on relationships, community, and a genuine love of animals.
Meet Stephanie
Hi, I'm Stephanie Korff — the person behind Sweet Farewell. I started this service because I believe every pet deserves a farewell as gentle and loving as the life they lived.
I'm based right here in New Plymouth, and when you work with me, you're working with me directly — not a call centre, not a national chain. I work closely with local veterinary clinics so families never have to worry about logistics during one of the hardest moments of pet ownership.
