Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

At a very young age I developed a fascination with animals through drawing. This quickly evolved into my passion for animals and the reason of choosing the career path of becoming a veterinarian. My past experiences have led me to work with a wide variety of species ranging from biomedical primates to small and large animals. Through practicing I have found that quality medicine and care along with quality time spent with owners and pets is imperative to my values as a practitioner. In-home euthanasia allows me to embody these facets and provide optimal care to my patients in the comfort of their own home.

What pet parents are saying

On March 11th, 2026 our family had to say goodbye to our beloved Karma. Our 6-1/2 year old was not only a loved family member, but she was the leader of our Fur Pack and a faithful service Dog. Upon making the tough decision to euthanize her, we made an appointment with Dr. Dzierga. Dr Dzierga arrived, took time to explain the entire process to us, listened to stories about Karma and brought her lots of treats. We never felt rushed, had lots of time to say goodbye even though it wasn’t easy. Every interaction Dr Dzierga had with Karma she treated her respect and like she was her own dog, always petting her and comforting her. Dr Dzierga not only listened to everything we shared about Karma, but then a card arrived a few days later and she took the time to include a personal note commenting about some of the things we told her. We were so touched by this. Dr Dzierga allowed Karma to have her pain taken away peacefully, and in the comfort of her own home with Friends and Family with her. Karma is safely back home where she’ll remain furever. Thanks again Dr Dzierga.

We chose an at-home service because our fur baby was always terrified of the vet. It was absolutely the right decision. Dr. Briell was incredible patient and gentle, helping us focus on the happy memories and guiding us through each step with compassion. She gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye, making an unbearably hard moment as peaceful and loving as possible.

Review by Dr. Briell Dzierga

The fact that I had the option to have someone come make saying goodbye easier at home was incredible for 1 thing, but Dr. Briell made us feel very comfortable that our baby was in the right hands to carry on. This was my first time going through this with my first pet, so she was very supportive and understanding of my decision. Having your pet at home where they are most comfortable was probably the best thing I could have done for my dog and I would do it again.

Dr. Briell Dzierga was an incredible gift to our family when we chose in home pet euthanasia for our precious 18 year old cat 🐈‍⬛ this week. She took such care and time ensuring all of us were comfortable and thoroughly understood the entire process. She went to great lengths to include our young children using age appropriate language and gentle explanations with our consent and at our request. Through all our tears, there was such peace and comfort being at home in one of our cat’s favorite spots with the sun streaming through the window as we said our goodbyes. We will be forever grateful that such a difficult time was made infinitely easier thanks to Dr. Briell Dzierga’s expertise and kindness.

We are so incredibly grateful to Dr. Briell Dzierga for the compassion, care, and dignity she showed during one of the hardest moments of our lives. Saying goodbye to our beloved Lacey was heartbreaking, but the way she handled the process made all the difference. From the moment she arrived at our home , we felt supported. She gave us time, explained everything gently, and treated our dog with the utmost respect and tenderness. The room was calm and quiet, and she never rushed us—allowing us the space to say goodbye in our own way. It was clear she truly understood the depth of the bond we had with our pet. Though this was one of the most difficult decisions we’ve ever had to make, we had a deep sense of peace, knowing our dog passed away without fear or pain, surrounded by love. Thank you, Dr. Briell Dzierga, for your empathy, professionalism, and heart. We will never forget how you helped us through this.

Dr. Briell was wonderful with our Millie. She listened to our stories, let us laugh and cry and explained everything very thoroughly. This was our first experience with in-home euthanasia and we are sold. We highly recommend her to anyone wanting to say a peaceful goodbye to their beloved pets.
