Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
One reason I became a veterinarian was to serve the bond between people and their pets. Saying goodbye to a longtime friend is one of the most difficult passages we face. Being able to say goodbye peacefully at home, in a familiar environment, can eliminate some of the stresses of the process for both people and pets.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Dan really couldn’t have been more amazing. He was so sensitive and kind, and so respectful of our kitty’s life and our grief. This was an incredibly tough thing to go through, but he made it so much easier. The man is truly an angel and I couldn’t recommend him more! Thank you Dr. Dan, we will always be grateful for your compassion!
He was extremely kind and supportive through the process of putting our sweet dog down. He walked us through everything, made us feel very comfortable, and gave us all of the time we needed. It was a heartbreaking moment but he made it the best it could be. We can’t thank him enough for the kindness he showed us during this time.
Dr. Dan Taylor was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made the entire experience much easier for my family during a very difficult time. He was in constant contact throughout the week as I hemmed and hawed my decision. When it came time for our appointment, he spent a good amount of time explaining everything to my family and allowed time for questions. He assured us that we had made the right decision, which I know helped me in that moment. While this was an overall overwhelmingly difficult situation, he made it as seamless and stress free as possible. If I ever had to put another pet down, he would be my first call. Thank you Dr. Taylor, the Howell family appreciates you and your kindness!
Dr. Dan could not have been more kind and thorough with this experience. If one has to send their beloved furbaby over the rainbow bridge, there is no one better to help you though the process.
Dr. Dan Taylor was so incredibly kind, thoughtful, informative and professional when he came to the house when it was time to say goodbye to my beloved cat Chloe. Having this ability to say goodbye in an environment that everyone was comfortable in without the trauma of having to be uprooted to go to an office where the lights are too bright and nothing seems peaceful was invaluable.
Dr. Taylor was considerate, kind, and understanding. He explained the procedure well and performed it smoothly. He spent time with us. Dr. Taylor was the perfect person for this procedure.
