Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Our pets become our beloved family members. After helping hundreds of families through end-of-life decisions in the emergency setting, I became experienced in being able to develop relationships with owners during times of stress (often times unexpected) and grieving. It was during my time in emergency that I realized the profound impact that the hospital environment plays into the end-of-life experience for not only the families but their pets as well. As a pet parent myself, I made the decision to leave ER and transition to practicing in-home euthanasia full time in order to fulfill my passion of providing a more serene experience for both the pet and the family members.

What pet parents are saying
Two weeks ago, Dr. Poole provided in-home euthanasia for my cat, and I am deeply grateful for her care and compassion during such a difficult time. She was incredibly professional, gentle, and kind. What meant the most to me was how clearly she explained each step of the process, so I knew exactly what to expect. That gave me the time and emotional preparation I needed, and helped me feel a sense of calm despite how hard the moment was. She treated my cat with great respect and dignity, and her empathy truly made a difference. Thank you, Dr. Poole for helping Mono leave this world peacefully.

Dr. Poole was kind, calming, and reassuring. She seemed to genuinely care about both our kitty and us. I would recommend her to others in a heartbeat. When the time comes for our other baby to pass, we would love to have Dr. Poole come out again.
Dr Poole was lovely, compassionate, so gentle with my old boy, and so very kind. She thoroughly explained what she would be doing and how he would react. She reassured me that it was time. It is always difficult to say goodbye to a beloved 4 legged family member. Dr Poole made the experience as soft and gentle as it could be. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of these services.
Dr. Poole was very professional and compassionate in helping us say goodbye to our boy. Our choice for in-home euthenasia was the best one for us, especially given the often busy nature of our regular vet clinic. Her assistance and calm manner made his passing more peaceful for all of us.
We are really grateful that we had Dr. Poole to help us say goodbye to our friend. She was a kind and compassionate guide, and a very professional veterinarian. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Poole if you are in the unfortunate position of having to say goodbye to a pet and want to ensure a peaceful transition.
Dr. Poole was very kind and was a calming presence during such an emotional moment in our family’s life. She gave the necessary information but also left us space to grieve while our Wally passed on. I would highly recommend this service, especially for anyone with nervous/anxious pets.
