Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
At 16, I started working at an animal rescue and quickly realized that my love of animals was truly a calling, but it wasn’t until later that year when I began as an assistant at the local veterinary practice that I knew where I needed to be. I never looked back! My goal is to make sure that every animal knows they are loved and cherished, and that is especially important in their twilight years. Every pet should have a warm lap, a sunny spot, and a comfortable setting in their final moments, surrounded by love and family, and I am so honored to be able to facilitate that in Hampton Roads.

What pet parents are saying
Dr Struble was amazing. She understood and could empathize with what we were going through at this most difficult time. We are grateful that she was there to assist Ginger and Snickers and she was there for us. Her concern for our girls as we said goodbye made this impossibly difficult process as bearable as it could be. She connected with Ginger and Snickers and explained everything to us. She truly cares For anyone that must go through this experience I would highly recommend Dr Struble
She was very professional and explained the process to my child that helped her process things. She gave us ample time with jersey to say our see ya laters.
She explained everything to us and as she would do what she needed to do to make our Shiver comfortable before putting him down. In fact she had to repeat saying things more than once since family members arrived at different times. She was also very patient and empathetic to our needs. She made letting go of our Shiver bearable. Thanks for your support thru this trying time.
It’s such a hard decision to make when your best friend has reached the point when he is suffering more than simply struggling. Dr. Struble is extremely compassionate and patient. She made sure my old boy was comfortable and that we could have the time we needed to say goodbye. She explained the process in a kind and quiet way, completely respectful of our feelings in such a solemn moment. Thank you, Dr Struble for helping us make sure Zeus had a peaceful journey over the rainbow bridge.
Dr Struble was very compassionate, patient, and professional. She talked us through the process and gave us all the time we needed with our sweet 19-year-old cat. When it was over, she gently wrapped him in a blanket with his favorite stuffed toy. We would definitely call her again if the need arises.
This is definitely one of the hardest decisions we had to make. Dr.Struble made things comfortable and much easier, even explaining things in simple terms so my young daughter could understand. I appreciate everything she did to help Macy pass peacefully.
