Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I have always had a strong love for animals, combined with a fascination for science and problem solving I knew becoming a Veterinarian was my calling. After serving countless pets over the years, my professional interest has evolved into a desire to provide a source of help in the times most pets and their owners need it the most. I strive to provide the most compassionate, peaceful, and stress-free experience possible. Having seen way too many pets suffer or experience stress in their last moments, my goal is to help provide relief while ensuring your pet experiences the utmost love and comfort as they pass in the comfort of their own home.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Christina was a true angel!! It was tbe first time we’ve had to make the very difficult decision for a fur baby!! We had the most beautiful experience.. Dr. Christina was extremely compassionate, patient and kind! I can’t thank her enough for making such a difficult time feel so beautiful at the same time. I would highly recommend her to anybody needing assistance with euthanizing their fur baby. She was truly phenomenal!!

Christina was so good with Febe.. I could not have asked for a more compassionate person to take care of her. She became a friend to Febe and showed her love. I appreciate the love that Christina has for my girl.

Dr. Vernon was absolutely amazing. She was caring, empathetic, and explained the entire process beforehand. She was so kind to my Nala and I want to thank her for that. This process was so difficult for me and Dr. Vernon was there the entire time to support me.

She was absolutely the very best❤️ She was so calm and kind and thoughtful, Rico was so calm when she just came into the room. He was so comfortable with her being there. I’ve had other animals put down at my house by other vets, she was the most kind and thoughtful and Caring in this whole, very sad experience. I would give her 10 stars she is an angel or doing what she does to ease us all who have lost our very devoted and precious Pet Many many thanks again to Dr Christina❤️🙏❤️🐾❤️

About 2 weeks ago I had Christina Vernon come over to my home to euthanize my cat Salem and she was very compassionate during this difficult time. She was very supportive afterwards. I would highly recommend her.
