Verified Veterinarian
I became a veterinarian because I believe it is our responsibility as humans to care for animals who don't have a voice or much of a choice in their lives. Whether it's a wild animal, a farm animal, or a pet, we humans impact their environment and what happens to them. My mission is to make every animal I care for feel loved and safe in any situation. Throughout my career, I have had to euthanize many animals, which is never an easy thing to do. During this difficult task, I have developed a way to focus all my love and attention on the life of the animal, not the euthanasia. So that in this challenging situation, the animal feels safe and loved during this peaceful passing, and the owners feel at peace with the decision that has been made.

Dr Cara Mitchell was so compassionate and thoughtful as we had to make the difficult decision for our Maltese as the Cushings Disease had taken its toll on her body. The at home service helped our Mazie be as comfortable as possible in her last moments as Dr Cara explained everything ahead of time to let us know what each step would be. Thank you Dr Cara Mitchell.
Dr. Mitchell was wonderful. She was very caring with our pet and our family durning a difficult time. I would highly recommend Dr. Mitchell.
Dr Mitchell Could not have been better. Gentle, patient, compassionate, thorough. My baby did not suffer any anxiety whatsoever and had the most peaceful passing. So much better than the traditional animal hospital euthanasia. Worth every penny of the fee. Will highly recommend to friends & coworkers that may need her service.
Great service on a terrible day. Very professional and kind. She let us reschedule to get one more day with our dog. She let us take our time during the Appt and even gave us a print of his paw as a keepsake. I would recommend this service to anyway having to go through this.
Dr. Cara was very compassionate & professional. I had never experienced having a pet euthanized . After Dr. Cara talked to us & explained the procedure, I knew I had made the right decision. It was actually a relief when my Bama went to sleep & was no longer in pain or suffering . Thank you for being there for us in a very difficult time .
Dr. Mitchell came to our home and provided us all the time we needed to say goodbye. We had to change our appt and she was able to accommodate us. Our dogs passing was in our bed where she had spent so much time. We are grateful we could do this at home.
