Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald is an angel on Earth. The time came to put down our 13 year old family dog. I wanted this to be done in the familiar comfort of our home. Dr Delia came to our house shortly after I reached out. She was kind and compassionate and made Mia’s transition calm, pain free and peaceful. She is an amazing human and is excellent at what she does. I am so grateful. Thank you so much Dr Delia.

Dr. Katie Todd was so kind and informative. She explained the process and answered all of our questions. Our sweet girl is at peace and out of pain and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for her.

We are so incredibly grateful for the kindness and compassion shown during one of the hardest days of our lives. Saying goodbye to our sweet Oliver after 16 wonderful years was heartbreaking, but the care we received made all the difference. From the moment he arrived, he was gentle, patient, and incredibly intuitive. He read the room so well, giving us all the time we needed to say our goodbyes and shower Oliver with love. At no point did we feel rushed or pressured. In fact, he made us feel completely in control of the process, and I truly felt that if I wasn’t ready, I could have changed my mind. His calm, caring presence brought so much peace to an impossible situation. He treated Oliver with the utmost dignity and treated our family with genuine empathy and respect. It was clear that he understood this wasn’t just a pet—we were saying goodbye to a beloved member of our family. Although it was one of the saddest days we’ve ever experienced, I’m so thankful we chose this route. His compassion gave us the opportunity to say goodbye exactly the way we had hoped. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone facing this difficult decision. His kindness and humanity are gifts that we’ll never forget.

Mac was my first pet- my kitty cat of 18 years. I consider myself very fortunate to have had him as a buddy for so long. So when he showed signs of his time being up, I knew from a friend -in home pet euthanasia- was a peaceful goodbye. Dr. John Murray was beyond thoughtful and professional with amazing bedside manner. Mac had a wonderful last day at home and I held him in my arms as we said goodbye. It was beyond hard, but I also wouldn’t have it any other way looking back. Mac hated his car carrier, the car, a vet office is so cold. We were in our beautiful, sunny room, comfortable and well, I’d want to go the same way! Thank you again for being so wonderful to our sweet baby.

Joanne was very gentle and compassionate with Cossette our beloved cat. She explained everything that was going to happen and gently put her in a basket to be cremated with the remains returning to us. At this very painful time in a pet owner’s life she was wonderful. Highly recommend.

On an extremely emotional and sad day, Dr. Clem was a calm, steady presence. Having never gone through this, I had no idea what to expect and the morning started off rough with my sweet dog confirming that it was time to go. Dr. Clem immediately set my heart at ease, sitting down on the floor next to Tucker. She was gentle with him as much as she was with me. I will forever be grateful that she was there and I don’t regret the choice to have her help Tucker cross over. Thank you and bless you❤️
