Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Ive always been an animal lover growing up, and though I have worked a variety of careers, I always ended up back with animals. I worked in clinical practice and enjoyed spending time with my clients, holding their hands as we talked through different disease outcomes and treatment plans, and, eventually crying with them during their last visit as they said goodbye to their pet. I wanted to provide in-home euthanasia so that people could spend the time saying goodbye at their own pace.

What pet parents are saying

Lauren (Dr. Frary) was amazing. This was our first time going through this and it was extremely difficult and emotional for our family. We weren't sure at first if this was the best option for our cat, but Lauren looked him over and considered his history and made an objective, professional assessment that this was a good option for him, but never pressured us one way or another. I was so impressed with Lauren's softness, kindness, and understanding of all of our concerns and answered all of our questions. And she was so conscientious and considerate of our pain. From the exact words she used to her gentle mannerisms to the beautiful basket and blanket she brought to take care of our boy, her consideration and kindness and how she did nothing to rush us nor pressure us means that I have been recommending her to anyone with an interest in this service. It costs a bit, but letting our boy go in the kindest, most humane, loving, and gentle way was worth every penny.

We are glad that Dr Lauren Frary was the one who got to help us with our little Chloe. She was caring and very compassionate at a time when we needed all the care in the world as we went through the toughest time in our family. We didn’t feel rushed at all and we were given everything we needed as we navigated such a tough day. We had to push our appt several days earlier, with only a couple hours notice before she came to our home…and she was right there to accommodate us, and for that we’re so grateful. Dr Frary gave excellent care and even took paw prints of our girl, which we received in the mail. She took a lot of our worries away on that day, and we will be forever thankful that she got to be the person to help us through the difficult process. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Review by Dr. Lauren Frary

Dr. Lauren made us feel very comfortable with her demeanor and candor by walking us through the process and answering all of our questions. She was VERY accommodating with our requests for one of the most vulnerable moments of our lives. She did her very best to make the process as easy and as comfortable as it could have been despite the circumstances.

Dr. Frary had the calmest, gentlest demeanor during the procedure. She was so good at putting me at ease. I appreciated that she recognized this was the best option for my elderly pet when other vets had ignored my concerns about my pet's comfort and mental state. Her compassion for the animals really shows. Thank you for making a hard thing easier.

Review by Dr. Lauren Frary

Our dog seemed to develop a condition where he was becoming paralyzed from his tail to his head. It was over the course of a couple of weeks. We took him to 4 different vets who “treated the symptoms” but nothing worked. It cost us a couple of thousand dollars and we were no closer to a solution. He was suffering and they refused to euthanize him bc he was ‘too young”, being only 5 yrs old. We were so sad watching him diminish daily w no real help in sight. Dr. Lauren Frary came to our home and was the most kind and loving w him and us. She handled the situation very professionally. Of course we didn’t want him to go. We love him dearly. We just didn’t want him to suffer, and he absolutely was, w no real diagnosis or end in sight. We cannot thank Dr. Frary enough for her kindness and help during a time that was super difficult. It had been made so much worse than necessary by others who just wanted to run more tests but w no real solutions. Thank you w all of our hearts for your service!
