Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Having provided end of life care to my own pets both in a hospital setting and at home with their family, I've experienced first hand the difference an at-home euthanasia makes to everyone involved. I am committed to helping pets and their families have as stress-free, dignified, and peaceful passing as possible.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Kelly was early which gave our family and pet time to acclimate to her presence. She was patience as one of my children were behind schedule. My pet warmed up to her quickly and the cheese whiz didn't hurt lol. Dr. Kelly explained everything she was going to do before she did it. She gave us plenty of time to spend and snuggle with our pet. The process did not feel rushed. She was so kind, considerate and compassionate. Our family was very grateful for her expertise during this time. Thank you again Dr. Kelly!!!

Dr. Neri was the consummate professional. She showed a great deal of compassion not just for us but for our friend Trixie. I highly recommend her.

Review by Dr. Kelly Neri

Dr Neri was so kind, gentle, and compassionate with us and with Ellie. I’m so glad we chose to make this difficult decision a little easier by doing it in the comfort of our home. Sweet Ellie died peacefully in my arms. There was no rush, no hurry, just love and peace. We will be forever grateful.

one of the hardest decisions we ever had to make as a family was made so much easier with the love compassion and professionalism that was shown to us by Dr Neri. We are so grateful for her support. I would highly recommend Dr Neri to any family who finds themselves in a similar situation.

We used Dr. Neri in September 2024 for the first time when we had to say goodbye to our fur baby. She was wonderful to work with, empathetic and kind. When it came time to call someone for our other fur baby during the holidays, Dr. Neri happened to be the vet available again. I didn't expect her to remember us, but she did, and she was just as empathetic and kind as she was the first time. She walked us through the process, gave us time to cuddle our babies, and helped our fur babies feel comfortable, spoiled, and loved as they crossed the rainbow bridge. We are truly grateful to have had such a sweet spirit assist our babies with their final journey.

Review by Dr. Kelly Neri

Kelly was very compassionate in her efforts with Alaya and our family. She took extra time to let us know what was happening and was going to happen. Although things didn't go as originally planned, she made sure that all was smooth and thoughtful. All in all , she did an outstanding job and our family is thankful.
