Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I became a veterinarian with a specific mission in mind: to ensure that every animal receives the gift of a peaceful, pain-free passing. While veterinary clinics are places of healing, the clinical environment can often be a source of stress and anxiety for a pet in their final moments. I believe that every pet deserves to spend their last breath in the place they love most, surrounded by familiar scents and the people who cherish them. By bringing end-of-life care into the home, I aim to honor the dignity of each individual and transform a difficult goodbye into a gentle, private, and sacred transition.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Renee Schott was amazing in our time of need. Our orange tabby, Pooh Bear, took a turn for the worse overnight and Dr Renee responded so quickly when we reached out for help. She came out to our home and walked us through each step of putting Pooh to sleep. She let us grieve and say good bye while helping us remember how funny and loved he was. She had a big fluffy blanket and basket to take him and we felt at peace when she left. Even though we never met before, she left feeling to us like family. Someone who cared for our baby. Can't thank you enough Dr Renee!

Dr. Renee Schott was amazing. She took great care of us as we said goodbye to our boy Marty. She was compassionate, and so understanding. Gave us just the right amount of time and space to grieve.

Review by Dr. Renee Schott

We had Dr. Renee Schott come out when our cat was very sick and we knew she wasn't going to make it. Dr. Schott was very gentle with her and explained everything that was happening and that was going to happen. It was a very personal process compared to bringing your pet in and I would use this service and Dr. Schott again if I had to.
