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.

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. 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.
Dr Cara Mitchell was so compassionate and very helpful through out the process she arrived in a very timely manner she even stayed for the burial i highly recommend her services
This is one review I wish I never had to leave, as it means the loss of my precious Koda. Cara was so professional and compassionate from start to finish. She made a very sad and painful process go as smoothly and as peacefully as it possibly could. She took care of everything and went above and beyond. If I had to do this again, there isn’t another vet I would want to be there to help my pet pass. Thank you, Cara.
We are absolutely so grateful for the peaceful passing of our beloved Katie. Dr. Mitchell was amazing. She led us through every aspect of the procedure, we felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for your caring spirit!!
Dr. Mitchell was compassionate and professional. She guided us through the process of helping our dog cross the rainbow bridge. Our dog, Oreo, lived to be 17 years old.
