Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I offer in-home euthanasia because it can transform a profoundly sad moment into a deeply personal and peaceful farewell. The clinical environment of a veterinary office can be overwhelming and distressing, not just for pets but for owners as well. At home, the process can be gentler and less traumatic, allowing for a more natural transition. I am dedicated to honoring the beautiful bond between pets and their owners. My ultimate goal is to allow pets to pass away in a familiar, peaceful setting that honors their dignity.

What pet parents are saying

She was very kind and informative of the euthanasia process. She answered all of my concerns prior to the procedure. My sweet girl was in good hands and crossed over the rainbow bridge very peacefully

Thankfully Dr Angela De Ville was able to come quickly to assist Stewie over the Rainbow Bridge as he went down hill very quickly. She was kind and walked me through every step of the procedure and it was a very peaceful process. So thankful she was there to help us.
