Dr. Rizzo was perfect. She was calm and patient; as well as incredibly understanding. She explained the process so we knew what was happening and what would happen to our pet. Our dog is reactive but she was able to work around that issue. After our dog passed and was cremated, she made sure to pick up his cremains and delivered them to us. I was terrified that they would be shipped out and lost. Dr. Rizzo made sure our pup made it back home. We are forever grateful for everything she did for us and our dog. She also came very highly recommended by a veterinarian that used her services.

We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.

Very best possible transition for our beloved dog and our family. Dr. Mumm allowed us to be out on our deck where Coda was the most comfortable in the cooler air. Our dog really liked her, too. The last hour of her life was as wonderful as we could make it, with lots of pets and love and treats. She fell asleep gently, settled right in front of me. Dr. Mumm was very reassuring to us and we helped her carry Coda out to her car on a stretcher since she was a big dog. She wrapped her in blankets on the stretcher but left her head out so the last thing we saw was her head on her paws, resting peacefully. Later we received a personal email and card from her which listed many of the activities we told her about doing with Coda. It felt like she really listened and cared! Thank you, Dr. Mumm, for making this difficult time so much better than expected!

Dr Wratten treated us all like family. She made me find a little solace on this traumatizing day by how she worked and helped us send our beloved Dexter over the Rainbow Bridge. She was better than I expected in taking care of my baby.

Dr. Cassandra Lewis was incredible. She made one of the toughest moments in our whole life be as comfortable and peaceful as possible. She was so calm and patient and talked us through everything. It truly felt like having a family member there with us. She was so great with our pup when she was passing and was so comforting, and was also patient with her other fur baby who was processing things in his own way. I highly recommend her.

Saying goodbye to Zoey was one of the hardest things we’ve had to do, but Dr. Mills made the process as peaceful and comforting as possible. She was incredibly gentle, explained every step clearly, and never made us feel rushed. We are so grateful for her compassion and the dignity that she showed our sweet baby in her final moments.
