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 so comforting. She made sure we were ready and was so kind to our little pixie. Pixie wasn’t scared at all. Dr. Christina ensured us that we were doing the right thing for our girl. She also sent a caring card a week later.

Absolutely amazing to work with! Very compassionate, communicative, and sincere. I've already recommended her to my network of friends if ever someone was in that unfortunate situation. Thank you Dr. Vernon, you are wonderful! The Brea Family

I have already shared very positive feedback re: Dr. Vernon to MANY of my dog owner friends. My vet referred your co. to me, and I was just fortunate enough to get Dr. Vernon….a very special, compassionate, animal lover. If all of your employees are like her, kudos to a WONDERFUL company and employees as well.

Dr. Vernon is a caring and compassionate vet. She did everything to make our last time with our beloved cat as gentle and loving as possible. She came to our home which was far better than having to transport him to an office. He was in pain but loved the treats she gave before she administered the injection. We appreciated the care from start to finish. We couldn't have chosen a better person for this important job.

One of the hardest things we have ever had to do. Dr. Vernon made it as delicate and compassionate as possible. She was there for us and after. She is a credit to her vocation, and we truly appreciate her.
