Dr. Katie Simpson
Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I became a vet partly because I grew up on a ranch with a variety of animals and loved being able to help take care of them. I have wanted to be in this profession since I was five years old. I love spending time with my partner, pets, friends, and visiting all of the beautiful places in this world...especially in Colorado! Also love trail running and scuba diving.

What pet parents are saying
There is nothing easy about letting our furry family members pass over the rainbow bridge, but our experience with Dr. Katie Simpson was the best we could imagine. She communicated with us in the days and hours before she arrived to administer at home euthanasia, so we knew what to expect. She was extraordinarily kind and patient as we went through our last minute doubts and did not rush us to a decision. Her bedside manner was gentle and we are very grateful for her skills and helping us give our beloved dog a serene passing.
Dr Katie was a blessing for us during this process. I could not have asked for a more compassionate, knowledgeable, and kind person. This was one of the hardest thing my husband and I have had to do, but having Dr Katie with us through the process of putting down our beloved cat made the world of difference.
Dr. Simpson was amazing during our difficult decision to say goodbye to our sweet Bitsy. She was compassionate and patient with us throughout the process. She also listened so well, and wrote us a heartfelt note. Thank you Katie for being an amazing person and doctor. 💕
Dr. Katie was fantastic in a tough time for our family. She was caring, gentle, and comforting to both our dog Emmie and us. She did a great job making Emmie feel secure and at ease with her kindness. We thank her for providing such high level of care, and highly recommend her and her services.
Oh my goodness!! Words cannot express! She was so sweet and considerate and said all the right things at the right time!! Absolutely loved her every second! She loved on our sweet pup and loved on us! Ah-Maze-Ing!!!! Highly recommend this amazing person for anyone going through this tough time!
Dr. Katie came to us close to the Christmas holiday with an impossible task: putting our 13-year-old dog to rest just 3 days before what’s supposed to be the happiest day of our kids year. She walked them through the entire procedure and even included them in the process so they could properly understand what was happening to their puppy dog as well as help him go to the next phase. I can’t say enough on how compassionate Dr. Katie was and, while we certainly never want to have to do these things, people like Dr. Katie make it something to be honored and respected. We appreciate her so much and believe she has played an important role in our children’s lives by helping them with the loss of their first pet. We cannot recommend her enough.
