Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I've always surrounded myself with animals (perk of being a country kid with very understanding parents), and decided to be a veterinarian before I even started kindergarten. After being in clinical practice for 14.5 years, I've developed a passion for end-of-life care. I consider it a deep privilege to help pets and clients through the most difficult stage of the human- animal bond.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Anna Peterson preformed an in home euthanasia for our dog, Copper on January 6th 2025 at our home in Ashland, WI. Copper has always been an anxious pup when going to the vet. I feared that we would have to go to the vet for his euthanasia and his last feeling would be anxiety and fear. We were fortunate to find Dr. Peterson. She was patience and kind. We never felt rushed and she took such good care of our little man. I feel confident that he had a peaceful passing and a lot of it was thanks to Dr. Peterson. Our family is forever grateful.

Dr. Peterson was amazing! She was professional, kind, compassionate, and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye to our buddy Shelly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience in such a difficult situation.

We are so grateful for Dr. Anna Peterson and the compassionate care she provided during one of the hardest moments for our family. She came to our home last week to help our beloved Maude pass peacefully, and we could not have asked for a more caring, gentle, and professional presence. Dr. Peterson took everything at our pace—there was never any rush, only calm and reassurance. She explained every step of the process clearly and compassionately, making sure we understood and were comfortable throughout. She treated Maude with such tenderness and respect, and her kindness extended equally to our family, offering both medical clarity and emotional support. She was personable, warm, and genuine—a true gift in a moment of grief. Dr. Peterson helped create a peaceful and loving space for Maude’s transition, and we will always be thankful for her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing this difficult decision. Her presence was a comfort beyond words

It takes a very special person to come into your home and handle a families grieving of losing their pet. There are many words that describe Dr. Anna...... She is very friendly, caring,compassionate, thoughtful and obviously a pet lover. Our decision was extremely difficult but she eased our pain. We know our dog Harie is in a better place and we thank Dr. Anna for being part of our journey.

Dr. Anna did a wonderful job. She had a very gentle way with Samantha, my baby of 14 years. She stroked her and talked to her. Gently wrapped her in the blanket that had been hers and mine when she sat in my lap. SamE was a 65 pound lap dog for 12 of her 14 years. She was a lap dog until she could no longer climb into my lap. Dr. Anna listened to me babble and gave me Kleenex for my tears. I could not have asked for a more gentle passing for our baby. Anyone who uses Dr. Anna’s services would be very pleased.

Dr. Anna Peterson I can not thank you enough for helping my fur son Ceazer cross the rainbow bridge into heaven/ next life! Your diagnosis of what was happening was hard for me to process and accept. With your words you made me see what was right and what he needed me to do for him. My boy was holding on for me and I needed to set his body free to fly high above in the sky! I appreciate you and the hard job you have knowing you are doing the correct thing while hearing hearts break. Well mine did that day and you gave me respect and I thank you! Forever grateful. Rest in peace and comfort my 16 year and 1 day old Boston Terrier Ceazer puppins💝forever in our hearts.
