Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Our pets become our beloved family members. After helping hundreds of families through end-of-life decisions in the emergency setting, I became experienced in being able to develop relationships with owners during times of stress (often times unexpected) and grieving. It was during my time in emergency that I realized the profound impact that the hospital environment plays into the end-of-life experience for not only the families but their pets as well. As a pet parent myself, I made the decision to leave ER and transition to practicing in-home euthanasia full time in order to fulfill my passion of providing a more serene experience for both the pet and the family members.

What pet parents are saying
When the time came to say goodbye to our beloved Jazzy, we were comforted beyond words by Dr. Poole and her gentle care. She came to our home and treated our sweet girl with such tenderness, respect, and compassion that the experience—though deeply emotional—felt peaceful and dignified. Dr. Poole took time to explain every step, making sure we felt prepared and supported. Her calm presence and empathy allowed our sweet girl to pass comfortably in familiar surroundings, surrounded by love. It was clear she truly cared, both for our pet and for us as grieving owners. We’re so grateful for the comfort she provided on one of the hardest days of our extremely difficult day. Dr. Poole's service is a gift to families facing loss, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants their pet’s final moments to be handled with grace and compassion.

Dr. Poole was kind, calming, and reassuring. She seemed to genuinely care about both our kitty and us. I would recommend her to others in a heartbeat. When the time comes for our other baby to pass, we would love to have Dr. Poole come out again.
Dr. Poole was very professional and compassionate in helping us say goodbye to our boy. Our choice for in-home euthenasia was the best one for us, especially given the often busy nature of our regular vet clinic. Her assistance and calm manner made his passing more peaceful for all of us.
Dr. Poole was very kind and was a calming presence during such an emotional moment in our family’s life. She gave the necessary information but also left us space to grieve while our Wally passed on. I would highly recommend this service, especially for anyone with nervous/anxious pets.
Dr Poole was empathetic, helpful and all around great. She made a very sad situation the best it could be and she was extremely detailed about the process. My puppy passed peacefully with her help.
We are really grateful that we had Dr. Poole to help us say goodbye to our friend. She was a kind and compassionate guide, and a very professional veterinarian. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Poole if you are in the unfortunate position of having to say goodbye to a pet and want to ensure a peaceful transition.
