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 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.

So thankful to have found Dr. Anna L. Peterson. She took great care of my dog. It was really hard to let him go but was so happy he was at home when the time came. Very compassionate. Highly recommend.

Dr. Anna made the most difficult decision as a pet owner easier with her services. She showed compassion and gave us the time we needed to get through the toughest situation. Our dog who was actually unbelievably calm in her presence and the whole experience couldn’t have gone better. I was concerned having my teen kids watch but she explained the process in just enough detail to prepare us all through each step. I would highly recommend her services and appreciate that she is willing to help people give their pets a chance to be home during the end of life.

We are so grateful for Dr. Anna Peterson and the compassionate care she provided during one of the hardest moments for our family. She came to our home last week to help our beloved Maude pass peacefully, and we could not have asked for a more caring, gentle, and professional presence. Dr. Peterson took everything at our pace—there was never any rush, only calm and reassurance. She explained every step of the process clearly and compassionately, making sure we understood and were comfortable throughout. She treated Maude with such tenderness and respect, and her kindness extended equally to our family, offering both medical clarity and emotional support. She was personable, warm, and genuine—a true gift in a moment of grief. Dr. Peterson helped create a peaceful and loving space for Maude’s transition, and we will always be thankful for her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing this difficult decision. Her presence was a comfort beyond words

Dr. Peterson made a hard day as gentle as possible. She explained every step of the process and let us set the pace as we said goodbye to our precious cat in the comfort of our home. Her empathy, skill, and preparedness made us feel well cared for. I'd highly recommend her for any family facing this difficult decision.

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!
