What pet parents are saying

Dr Marlene was absolutely amazing to work with. My fiancee had never used the service before (I have twice with Dr Whala) and she was very impressed with how gentle, caring, and lovely Dr Marlene was with her cat Issy. As usual, nothing was rushed and Dr Marlene took the time to explain the process before going forward. After it was completed she did a quick check that further confirmed her decision to let Issy go peacefully, as she had more tumors thatn the two that she knew of. She wrapped Issy up beautifully in a lavender blanket and placed her in a little basket to leave. Cannot recommend this service highly enough.

Review by Dr. Marlene Anschultz

Dr. Marlene Anschultz was so helpful trough the whole process, she really eased our pain with her calm and empathy, she has a very kind heart and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye while reassuring us that we were making the right decision for Remus. She made this first time at home experience a much less painful event even though it never gets easier ❤️‍🩹 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Marlene. Stephan and Ginny P.

Dr. Marlene went above and beyond to make the whole experience as peaceful and calm. She was kind, patient, and gave us the time we needed with our dog. We couldn’t thank her enough for everything she did for us.

Review by Dr. Marlene Anschultz

Dr. Marlene is one in a million. Our 15 year old Tibetan Terrier had Canine Cognitive Dysfunction. She came to our home and was calm , sympathetic , and professional . She has a way that makes a person feel ok in such a terrible situation. She did not rush us . She explained in detail how and what to expect during the process. She gave us as much time as we needed to spend our last minutes with “ Bentley “ . You could not find a Veterinarian better to help you through this horrible part of life. We will be forever grateful to her . The Steve Shulman family
