This was definitely the way to give your baby wings. My dog was very afraid of the vet office, and i did not want him to be on his last day on earth. Dr Anna was on time, very loving, caring and made us all feel at ease with going forward. She even brought a treat for him, and my very usually picky dog ate it! She was amazing, and I would definitely call on her again. Thank you, Dr Anna. The Hallfrisch's.

Dr. Ellen was incredibly compassionate. Our cat, Loki, was in late stage kidney diesease. We knew it was time for him. She was able to make the appointment sooner than we scheduled. We appreciated that, at this point he was constantly miserable. If you have had to go to a vet to euthanize a pet, you know its a rather traumatic experience. Especially if the pet hates car rides to begin with. For what it was, she made it as enjoyable an experience it could be. We got to be there as our sweet boy had his last moments laying on the deck like he loved to do. I am truly sorry for the hurt and pain you are going through if your reading this making a decision. I won't tell you if it is the right one or not, but if your at this point, Dr. Ellen provided the most comfortable experience possible for our sweet Loki.

Dr. Campbell was so kind to us and our beloved dog, Samwise. This was one of the hardest days of our lives, to have to say goodbye to the most amazing friend. Dr. Campbell spent about an hour with us, letting us have the time to say goodbye both before, and after he was gone. She took him to the funeral home for cremation and made sure we knew where he would be and when we could pick him up. This was such a hard decision to make to let him go. Having a caring person come to the house so he could watch the neighborhood and birds from his favorite spot on the porch was priceless.

Dr. Christina Vernon is a wonderful, compassionate and professional person. She explained the process from beginning to end for sending our beloved Ernie over the Rainbow Bridge. The process was completely stress free and Ernie was calm and peaceful through the whole process. This was the most emotional decision ever made by my husband and myself , and Christina listened to us, didn’t rush the appointment, and put us at ease( as much as possible) . I would highly recommend her to anyone if you are faced with this decision for your beloved pet . Thank you Christina.

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.
