We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.

Dr. Wolfingbarger provided us with such compassionate and respectful care during one of the hardest moments of our lives. When we had to make the decision to euthanize our beloved cat, Nene, Dr. Wolfingbarger treated him—and us—with incredible kindness, patience, and understanding. She took the time to explain everything, never rushed us, and made sure Nene was comfortable and surrounded by love. We are deeply grateful for the empathy and professionalism shown during such a painful experience. I truly can’t imagine having gone through this without such caring support.

Dr. Lisa made herself available for a last-minute urgent call for us and she couldn’t have been more lovely and caring. This is obviously a challenging and sad time for anyone in the position to call. She treated it with reverence and kindness. Feel lucky to have had her.

Dr. Jason Doolittle showed our family extraordinary compassion during one of the hardest moments of our lives. He walked us through every step of the at-home euthanasia process with patience, kindness, and clarity, ensuring we never felt rushed or uncertain. He handled our beloved Ranger with the utmost respect and gentleness, truly honoring him as the cherished member of our family that he was. Dr. Doolittle stayed in contact with us throughout the process, including updates on the return of Ranger ashes along with a beautiful nose print and paw print that we will treasure forever. Allowing Ranger to spend his final day at home, surrounded by love and comfort, meant everything to us. We are deeply grateful for Dr. Doolittle’s empathy, professionalism, and the genuine care he showed our family and our sweet pup.
