Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I've always surrounded myself with animals (perk of being a country kid with very understanding parents), and decided to be a veterinarian before I even started kindergarten. After being in clinical practice for 14.5 years, I've developed a passion for physical rehabilitation, hospice, and end-of-life care. I consider it a deep privilege to help pets and clients through the most difficult stage of the human- animal bond.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Anna came to our house and made a really hard day a lot easier for us and Koda. She explained everything she was going to do and put everyone at ease immediately. Koda was calm on his own bed at home. We all got to love him and be there for him right up to the end, which was the most peaceful passing I could have hoped for him. He simply and peacefully just went to sleep. She wrapped him in blankets and we put him on a stretcher and she took him with her as we had requested he be cremated. I would recommend Dr. Anna, she is kind, caring and makes a really bad day a lot better and leaves you with a peaceful feeling, you know your fur baby was in the best hands. Thank you Dr Anna for helping us make sure Koda made his transition to heaven pain and stress free. ❤️

Special attention and care was given to our fragile little girl who was always scared of strangers. Nobody could have handled it better.

Dr. Anna Peterson I can not thank you enough for helping my fur son Ceazer cross the rainbow bridge into heaven/ next life! Your diagnosis of what was happening was hard for me to process and accept. With your words you made me see what was right and what he needed me to do for him. My boy was holding on for me and I needed to set his body free to fly high above in the sky! I appreciate you and the hard job you have knowing you are doing the correct thing while hearing hearts break. Well mine did that day and you gave me respect and I thank you! Forever grateful. Rest in peace and comfort my 16 year and 1 day old Boston Terrier Ceazer puppins💝forever in our hearts.

Dr. Peterson was amazing! She was professional, kind, compassionate, and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye to our buddy Shelly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience in such a difficult situation.

Dr. Anna helped us say goodbye to our four-legged family member on our terms. It was very helpful and she showed plenty of empathy along the way. I suggest anyone to go this route if needing more comfort when saying goodbye to your loved one.
