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. Peterson was kind, compassionate and professional. I talked a lot (my coping mechanism) and she listened with a sympathetic ear. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, so I knew what to expect at each step along the way. I asked for a moment alone with my dog after she'd passed. Dr. Peterson was very respectful of that. I am most appreciative of her kindness and support during a difficult process.

We couldn’t have asked for a better doctor to help us through one of the worst times of our life. She was truly human in all the right ways. There was so much care and respect, which in our experience is rare of doctors regarding any discipline or type of patient. I’m so thankful for her.

Dr.Peterson was such a blessing to have during our last moments with our pup. She made us feel very comfortable off the bat. She guided us through such a hard situation. I never felt rushed and she really took the time to know us as a family unit. I can tell she is well experienced and compassion driven. I would recommend her to anyone!

Review by Dr. Anna L. Peterson, DVM

We are so grateful for Dr. Peterson and her openness to offer at-home end of life service. Our dog had always been nervous to leave home, and when she began exhibiting end of life symptoms, it broke my heart to think she would not only be in pain, but also suffer from anxiety at the end of her life, having to take her to the clinic for care. Dr. Peterson not only accommodated us in our home, but was gentle and caring. She made our dog feel at ease and never rushed anything.

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Anna Peterson. She was so kind, compassionate, and patient throughout the whole process. It takes a special soul to do what she does. Having said goodbye to several pets in my lifetime, I won’t do it any other way. Thank you Dr. Peterson and codapet for what you do.
