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.

Dr. Christina was extremely patient, caring, and accommodating. Our kitty's condition came on suddenly and we were not prepared to deal with such a sad situation, but she was very helpful and helped to make our last moments with him as peaceful as anyone could hope for.

Dr. Christina is a God send ♥️ putting our dog down was one of the toughest decisions my husband and I have had to make and she was amazing !!! I can’t imagine having to do that at a vet office. She was compassionate and walked us thru everything and gave us so much peace and time to process and do what we needed to handle things as best as we could. I’m so beyond grateful for her!

Dr Veron has been our dogs vet for many years. It was a pleasure for us to have her there to send our dog to her final rest. It was a very good experience. So peaceful.
