Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I decided that becoming a vet was my calling at a very young age after I became obsessed with horses, cats, and dogs. I determined early on that becoming a vet would be the best way to spend my days with animals. As a veterinarian, I have had the opportunity to euthanize my own animals at home and felt like that was the best gift I could give them. Knowing how much it meant to my own pets helped me to realize the importance of giving pets a peaceful passing at home.

What pet parents are saying

My family and I felt comfortable and supported as we said goodbye to our family member Leia. Dr. Hart really was perfect coming into our home and helping us say goodbye with love. I am thankful she was the vet that we chose.

Katharyn came on an urgent basis and I was so grateful for that. She was professional, kind, answered all my questions, and helped reassure me that our friend Phoenix wasn't experiencing any pain through the process. She was patient with me, as I wasnt thinking at my best. I very much appreciated her services.

Dr. Hart was very kind and compassionate when she was in our home. She explained each step thoroughly and gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes. I would highly recommend her if you need to say goodbye to your pet.

While calling for this service is always hard, I deeply appreciate the opportunity it gives to us pet parents to be able to say goodbye in a place where our pets are comfortable and calm. Dr. Hart is an amazing person. She was so calm and had a soothing energy about her. She truly made the whole experience as good as it can possibly be. Thank you Dr. Hart.❤️

On a very difficult day Dr Hart was so supportive, compassionate and professional. She informed us of the process answered all questions and let us set the timing to ensure our Clohe was as comfortable as possible. That was what was most important to us. She reassured us that we made the right decision at the right time for our Clohe bug.

Our dog Zelda just declined so quickly. It was so nice to be able to do this at home, her happy place, her home. Dr Hart was just so lovely and caring and helpful during this time. And a week later, our pups ashes are home with us. Thank you for helping us Dr Hart.
