Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
At 16, I started working at an animal rescue and quickly realized that my love of animals was truly a calling, but it wasn’t until later that year when I began as an assistant at the local veterinary practice that I knew where I needed to be. I never looked back! My goal is to make sure that every animal knows they are loved and cherished, and that is especially important in their twilight years. Every pet should have a warm lap, a sunny spot, and a comfortable setting in their final moments, surrounded by love and family, and I am so honored to be able to facilitate that in Hampton Roads.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Struble was very professional, supportive, & sensitive to the situation. We moved through everything together with her ensuring I was ready & ok to proceed. She showed me support & care on one of the hardest days I've had in a way that really helped me move through it.
Dr Struble provides an invaluable service to both out pets and to us their parents. My elderly large dog was in pain from advanced old age and arthiritis. She was able to stay in her familiar home and routine, and passed away peacefully in her favorite place, with our little cat Jack faithfully at her side the entire time. Erin is a patient and compassionate doctor. She took her time and allowed the process to proceed at its natural pace and when I was ready. I have 3 other elderly pets and hope their journey allows them to have the same stress free, comforting transition when the time comes.
Dr. Struble was very caring and answered all the questions we had.She was very gentle and also made me feel better about the decision to put Bella down.She was more than happy to let us spend as much time as we wanted with Bella before the end.
Dr Struble was Elysian vet for over 10 years and when we found out her time with us was coming to an end I asked about home care and she stepped up and did it herself at home. She showed us compassion and grace while we said our goodbyes. She took so much care of Elysian remains. I’m forever grateful to her for giving my family those few precious moments to say goodbye.
Dr Erin was amazing through and through with this entire horribly painful process. She seems truly passionate about her job and treated me and my Annabell with respect and dignity throughout the entire process. I will highly recommend her to anyone in the area going through this difficult decision. The fact that I could have it done at home, versus having to put my girl through all that extra stress, means the world to me. I'm awaiting to get bell bell back , but I'm confident that she's in good hands until I have her back in mine. Thank you, Dr Erin Struble. From the bottom of my heart
It’s such a hard decision to make when your best friend has reached the point when he is suffering more than simply struggling. Dr. Struble is extremely compassionate and patient. She made sure my old boy was comfortable and that we could have the time we needed to say goodbye. She explained the process in a kind and quiet way, completely respectful of our feelings in such a solemn moment. Thank you, Dr Struble for helping us make sure Zeus had a peaceful journey over the rainbow bridge.
