Dr. Deborah Perzak
Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I wanted to become a veterinarian so that I could make a difference. When I was in college, I had a deep interest in science and research, and I loved to challenge myself. I was fortunate as a child to have parents that understood my love for animals and would allow me to "bring home the strays", so to speak. I worked for several years in the restaurant industry before deciding to use my gifts with people and animals, as well as my science background, to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian. I believe in the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. To me, this means treating the people I meet and the pets I take care of with respect, dignity, and compassion. I liken being a veterinarian to a pediatrician: Since both pets and small children cannot always communicate to me what is wrong, or where it hurts, it is up to me to listen to the pet parent and use what they say to help diagnose and treat their pet.

What pet parents are saying
Dr Perzak had been taking care of our cat for many years prior to leaving her practice. She was well aware of our cat and our family and knew our decision was not easy to make.
It's hard to put into words how I feel right now. All I know is I appreciate Dr Perzak so much. Her kindness and gentle demeanor during this time meant the world to me. What an incredible service she she provides and is so accommodating. Thank you so much.
Cannot recommend Dr. Perzak enough. She was kind, compassionate, and let us take all the time we needed with the passing of our dog that we viewed as a family member. The whole process from start to finish was peaceful and in a place where our dog felt most comfortable. 10/10 would recommend- completely worth it.
Doctor Perzak was so compassionate and kind. This was a very hard decision for me to make, and she made it as easy as humanly possible for both my BJ and me
Debra was a God sent angel ! She took her time with us and explained everything that she was doing! Harley was very happy with her and I think he was very grateful to her! We ended up knowing each other and that made for a pleasant experience! We couldn’t have wrote the ending any better!
Dr Perzak made the whole unfortunate process as easy as possible. Very patient and loving, and did a great job explaining the process.
