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 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. Erin was patient and understanding. My family felt supported during the difficult time. Dr. Erin provided comforting words and talked us through the process so we knew what was going on with our sweet fur baby.

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.

Review by Dr. Erin Struble

Dr Struble was very compassionate, patient, and professional. She talked us through the process and gave us all the time we needed with our sweet 19-year-old cat. When it was over, she gently wrapped him in a blanket with his favorite stuffed toy. We would definitely call her again if the need arises.

Dr. Erin was wonderful and caring. She made one of the hardest days of my life a little easier. Bennie immediately loved her and felt comfortable, which was the most important thing. Thank you.
