Meet Our Team

ACT Pet Crisis Support is entirely run by a dedicated group of volunteers. We have been brought together by a shared vision to avoid unnecessary suffering and euthanasia of beloved family pets. 

ACT Pet Crisis Support is an Incorporated Association, registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission in March 2019. 

​Read more about some of our team below. We are always keen for more volunteers to help with the charity. If you are interested in volunteering please contact us. 

President & Vet Lead- Dr Eloise Bright
Dr. Eloise Bright started ACT Pet Crisis Support in 2019 along with Sue who has served as Secretary since it's humble beginnings. A Canberra local, Eloise was saddened by the need to euthanase pets due to lack of money and when she heard about Pet Medical Crisis in Victoria, was inspired to start a similar organisation in Canberra. She currently works at the RSPCA as a shelter vet and runs Canberra Behaviour Vet.
