The benefits of
in-home euthanasia

When your pet reaches its life's end and quality of life has diminished, euthanasia (meaning good sleep) is a humane and ethical choice. While a natural passing sounds peaceful, it often prolongs suffering and pain. It forces pets to endure unnecessary fear and anxiety.

While it is natural to want to keep our pets with us as long as possible, the most loving choice is often found in letting them go. Euthanasia affords your pet a controlled and comfortable passing that prioritizes their peace and dignity.

In-home euthanasia services eliminate the logistical burden of transporting your ailing pet to the hospital and the distress they may experience in an unfamiliar environment. By choosing in-home euthanasia, you can ensure your pet's comfort and peace. They enjoy their final moments in their favorite place, surrounded by the love of their family and friends.

Why choose euthanasia

When we arrive for the appointment, we will gently evaluate your pet and discuss any concerns or questions you may have about the process. We'll walk you through the process to fully understand what's taking place at each step along the way. Prioritizing your pet's comfort means that we also value your comfort—therefore, the process is never rushed or abbreviated.

Your pet will be given a sedative to help them relax. Once your pet is comfortable, our doctor will ask if you're ready to say goodbye. The euthanasia medication will be administered with your consent, and your pet will appear to fall asleep. In the following minutes, their breathing and heart will stop. At that time, our doctor will announce your pet's passing and excuse themself so that you may grieve privately.

If you have decided to have your pet cremated, we will respectfully transport your pet’s body for mortuary services.
