Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I enjoy discovering new ways to help animals and people. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of caring for healthy, ill, and injured animals, and have realized the significance of palliative and end-of-life care. My gentle and empathic spirit has drawn me to support families during these difficult seasons. I believe that in-home euthanasia is a unique gift that we can provide to help families say goodbye to their special friend in their favorite place.

Dr. Brittany exceeded all expectations I had in terms of emotional support and compassion. She let me take as many moments, big or small, as I needed before proceeding with any steps and never made me feel like I was asking for too much. I could not have asked for a better experience. I could not thank her enough. I will forever be grateful and appreciative of her service and empathy for me and my beloved Shmitty. It is an understatement to say, thank you Dr. Brittany.

Dr. Southern was very kind and compassionate. She reached out before our appointment to ask if I had any questions. She was very thorough in her explanation of the process. Her kind and gentle spirit put me and my pet at ease. She made a difficult day a little less difficult.

Dr. Brittany was the most thoughtful vet. She brought my sweet Ava Hersey Kisses as her last treat. She was so comforting during one of the hardest times of my life. Thank you Dr. Brittany for all you do.
