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 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.

In July 2023, I had taken my pup to get a rabies shot and within 2 days, she had a limp that didn't go away. The limp turned into a lump, and that turned out to be bone cancer. Using holistic vets & treatments, she was able to live very well until she hurt her foot twice last summer. She made it to 17, but I knew she wouldn't make it through winter. Because she could no longer use stairs, I had to do a house-sitting job out of town for her last days. I'm so grateful that Dr. Peterson could still come and help her for that final moment. She even placed her into the box we had for her burial. This kindness meant so much to Ginny's whole circle of family and friends. There's nothing that could make this day 'easier' but there are a whole lot of things that could make it even worse; so, we deeply appreciate Dr. Peterson's care for Ginny and for us at that very difficult moment. I couldn't bring myself to write before now, but thank you, Dr. Peterson.

Dr. Peterson was so compassionate and caring. She really helped us get through this terrible time of having to put our precious dog Lincoln down. She treated him with so much respect and care. When he passed she was so gentle with him, and was so careful taking care of him. I would highly recommend her if you are going through this difficult time with your dog.

Dr. Anna was very kind and compassionate, and she did what she could to ease our stress level. It's always going to be painful, but my wife, Konnie, and I can't say enough good things about how she handled this sad day. We are grateful to have found such a caring vet.

The best way that a horrible thing can be handled. Dr. Anna was amazing, she knew when to be around and when to give us space, when to talk and when to not. She was kind and compassionate and I believe that our boy went as peacefully and feeling as loved as possible.
