When we had to put our boy Louie down in August we had no idea where to turn. It was a Sunday morning, and no vets were open except for emergency vets, who knew nothing about our animal and likely didn’t care. Dr. Mary answered our call right away, took all the information about him and told us that she would do it whenever we were ready. There was no pressure, just a wonderful person who clearly loves her job and animals. When she arrived, she walked us through the entire process and gave us time to make decisions and didn’t make them for us. She was kind and gentle and even our old boy who doesn’t like new people was absolutely comfortable with her. I am so glad we made the decision to go with her. She made the process so easy and would def use her again if we are ever in the same situation. And then she asked us if we wanted to take a little bit of his hair and we did and then a few days later, we realized that we should have gotten a little bit more for some memory pieces. She very kindly mailed us as much as we wanted. Highly highly highly recommend.

Dr. Harper made an extremely hard day incredibly peaceful for my sweet Mr. Whiskers and me. I was very scared to schedule and had a lot of guilt but Dr. Harper made the experience deeply meaningful and grounded for my family. I’m so glad that my boy was able to cross over the way that he did thanks to her.

She was so wonderful. Caring, kind and considerate. Not stressful at all. Very peaceful. I was able to hold my 19 year old cat in my arms to the end. I am so thankful to have been able to do this so my Lou didn’t feel stress going to the vets office. He passed away knowing we loved him! Thank you so much Dr. Angela. 🤗♥️

I am incredibly grateful to Dr. John Bruker for the kindness and compassion he showed our family when we had to say goodbye to our sweet Yorkie, Lulu. Her health unfortunately had continued to decline, I was desperately looking for someone who could help us that same day. I wanted nothing more than to make sure Lulu was surrounded by love in her final moments. Dr. Bruker and his team made a heartbreaking experience feel peaceful and gentle. The patience, understanding and dignity he showed Lulu and our family brought us comfort during such a difficult time. They also helped coordinate her transportation and cremation, making the process easier for us as we processed our grief. I am truly grateful for the service we were given, and I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. John Bruker to anyone looking for someone that treats their beloved pets with genuine compassion and respect. 🥹❤️🙏

Dr. Laura was very kind and considerate when she helped our 13 y/o cat with cancer pass on. We appreciated her counsel throughout the whole process, and she put us at ease the moment we connected. She understood our concerns, listened to our requests, and answered all of our questions. Watson was a bright, intelligent, sassy tuxedo cat, and we miss him dearly. Despite the cancer, he was himself until the very end, and we are so grateful we had the chance to spend his last moments with us in the comfort of his home and in my arms.
