Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
From a young age I have always felt a strong connection with animals. As I progressed in school, I was fascinated and excelled in biology and science, so choosing a career in veterinary medicine was a natural choice. I believe that every animal deserves compassionate care and I strive to provide the highest standard of care to all of my patients. After years of providing emergency care for pets in Memphis, I chose to extend my practice to include in-home euthanasia. Recognizing the emotional and sensitive nature of end-of-life decisions for pets, I wanted to offer a more comfortable and familiar environment for both the animals and their owners during this difficult time. By providing in-home euthanasia, I aim to create a peaceful and compassionate atmosphere, allowing pets to be surrounded by their loved ones in the comfort of their own homes. I believe that this personalized approach not only helps ease the emotional burden for pet owners but also ensures a more peaceful transition for the pet, allowing them to say goodbye in a calm and familiar setting.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Mays is such a kind & caring person. She was so kind & gentle with our Bella. We are so grateful to her. Bella was sent over the rainbow bridge surrounded by love.
She was so kind and gentle with our pet from start to finish. Explaining what will happen prior to, reassuring us he was not in pain and making sure King was comfortable during the process.
Dr. Mays was so kind and caring with my Charlie. She took her time to explain everything and to make sure I was comfortable with what was happening and that Charlie’s passing was peaceful and painless. I couldn’t have asked for better care anywhere and the fact that she came to our home so I didn’t have to put the stress and pain of a car ride on my 18 year old baby meant the would to me.
Dr Mays was the most patient wonderful person for me because I just had a very hard time making this decision for my soul dog even though I knew it was the right decision because I knew she was very ill she let me take my time to say goodbye and I recommend if anyone else is in the same situation please contact them
Dr. Mays is compassionate & kind. I cannot recommend her highly enough for this service. At home service, while still very difficult, is calm and peacful. Dr. Mays only adds to that environment with her care and concern.
Dr. Susannah Mays was kind, caring and compassionate. She made us feel so comfortable with her professionalism and guidance throughout the entire process.
