Jason came and was very professional and empathetic of our family loss. Mason passed after 17 years with us. He was the best German shepherd we could have had. A real part of the family. Jason came in and handled us and Mason with empathy, compassion and a genuine respect for Mason and our family. He thoroughly explained the process, answered any questions and was very comforting toward us and mason. We were able to participate in the procedure as we were comfortable doing. He did not rush us while we said our final goodbye’s. I could not have asked for a better end for Mason and the comfort Jason provided in this situation. After everything was done and paid for, Jason continued to reach out with updates concerning Mason’s remains and his follow-up in seeing to it that we received the ashes and other personal memorabilia. He personally returned to deliver the remains and memorabilia on our schedule. I could not have made a better choice of provider for his services and his pricing was clearly explained and lower than other providers I had contacted.

Dr. Delia is truly one of the most amazing people I have ever met. She gave us peace of mind by answering all of our questions and throughly explaining what our baby girl was experiencing. We are so happy that our Mira was surrounded by love and comfort in her final moments.

Me and my husband had an amazing experience with Dr.Daniela Lutri, she was there for us and our beloved cat at the end of her life. As hard as it was we wouldnt have had it any other way, Dr Daniela provided a calm and caring environment to say goodbye to our baby with her complete understanding and support. She was so transparent about the whole process and made sure we knew we were doing the right thing. She handled our cat with so much respect and care, we knew she would be in good hands even after she was gone. Definitely would recommend this service and particularly Dr Daniela Lutri to help you through this tough time.

Dr. Patterson is like an angel of mercy. She was so kind and understanding. Charlotte was so very special to us. I am so very grateful that we were able to give Charlotte such a peaceful passing and spare her the suffering that we knew was to come if we waited too long. I will miss Charlotte forever but I have a sense of relief now and Dr. Patterson gave us that gift. Thank you so much.

Dr. Kim was an absolute angel! She made the passing of our sweet Belle (15 year old blue tick) so much easier. Her compassion and just overall presence during such a hard time was so comforting. I will be recommending the at home service to anyone I know who has an elderly dog.
