Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Growing up I was surrounded by animals and the industries involved in helping animals lead good lives and remain healthy. When I am with animals, I am happy. I have always had a calling to care for things. It is what drives me. It is what makes me feel like I am doing something good in the world.
