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

Thank you Dr. Anna Peterson for offering at home euthanasia and being so kind, compassionate, caring, informative and helpful. This was one of the hardest days of my life and I'm greatful my Reina got to pass at home in her favorite spot not at the vet where she was stressed. I will miss my dog forever 😢 💔

Dr. Anna was caring, knowledgeable, and was able to very comfortably lead us through this painful process. We were very thankful to have her there with us.

Dr. Peterson was the perfect person to help euthanize our beloved Daisy. The process of applying for a home appointment online was seamless. I was instantly contacted through e-mail and able to ask questions about the stages we were going through as Daisy was failing. Gave all of us comfort and peace of mind while our hearts were breaking. I ultimately requested that perhaps she could come even sooner than our designated appointment, and she was able to accommodate us. She was kind, deeply compassionate and committed to helping us and Daisy through the process. She explained in detail the steps that would be taken to release Daisy from her struggles. She helped us provide the best possible passing for our sweet girl. She let us take all the time we needed to say our goodbyes. There was no pressure to buy anything we didn’t want, but choices were offered. Pricing is comparable to what we paid a decade ago and Dr. Peterson drove quite a ways. Cannot thank her enough! I would recommend no other.

Absolutely amazing. It was a tough decision and Dr. Anna helped us tremendously throughout the process. Our Carmen was so comfortable with Dr. Anna and the entire experience was truly peaceful. Dr. Anna was so gracious and patient. She is so caring and truly amazing!

Probably one of the hardest things to do is make the decision that your pet ( Best Friend) quality of life has become painful and a struggle for them and it’s time to say goodbye. It hurts like Hell. For me being able to do this in the comfortable surroundings of your pets home is a blessing. And I truly have to thank Dr Anna Peterson, DVM for making just that very comfortable my Friend. And me as well. I appreciate you and you thank you Dr Anna Peterson.

Dr. Peterson is an amazing soul. She was extremely thoughtful and patient with our family as we said goodbye to our sweet boy, Bauer. She demonstrated compassion for Bauer and allowed him to cross over with dignity.
