What pet parents are saying
We recently had to make the incredibly difficult decision to say goodbye to our beloved boxer, Rocco. After a lifetime of love, loyalty, and joy it was important to us that his final moments be peaceful and in the comfort of his own home. We were fortunate to have found Dr. Cory, who came to our home and helped guide us through this emotional process with the utmost compassion and professionalism. From the moment she arrived, Dr. Cory was gentle, kind, and incredibly respectful not only to us, but most importantly, to Rocco. She took the time to explain each step of the process, allowing us to move at our own pace and ask questions as needed. Her calm and compassionate demeanor helped bring a sense of peace to an otherwise heartbreaking moment. What stood out the most was the care she showed for Rocco. She ensured he was comfortable, pain-free, and relaxed, treating him with the dignity and tenderness he deserved. Her presence helped us feel less alone in our grief and more at peace with our decision. We are so grateful for Dr. Cory and the service she provided. While nothing can take away the sadness of losing our sweet Rocco, having him at home, surrounded by love, with someone so compassionate guiding us, made all the difference. Thank you, Dr. Cory for helping us give Rocco the goodbye he deserved.
Deciding to put a pet down is one of the hardest decisions a pet owner can make. My friends suggested booking an appointment with Dr. Korsgen to do in home pet euthanasia. I cannot speak highly enough about the entire experience. Although my heart was shattering during it, Dr. Korsgen provided the most respectful and beautiful experience I could have asked for. I'm eternally grateful that I got to say goodbye to my best friend in the most loving, compassionate way possible.
Dr. Cory was a blessing when one was needed. Her presence alone calmed the worst day of our lives. She is an incredible human and we are so thankful her. Thank you so much for being who you are.
We recently had to say goodbye to my beloved dog, Cocobella. Dr. Corey made this heart-wrenching moment as bearable as possible. Her compassion, understanding, and professionalism provided immense comfort during a very difficult time. I am deeply grateful for the care and support they provided to both me and Cocobella. Thank you from the bottom of heart!
In-home euthanasia with Dr. Korsgen is truly the best option. Dr. Korsgen put me at ease and walked me through the entire process from start to finish. She was very knowledgeable, gentle, and my dogs loved her. While it was unbelievably hard to say goodbye it was really nice to be able to do so at home. It was also very helpful to have my other dog present during the process so that he could have some closure. Thank you so much Dr. Korsgen!
I am so grateful for the in home euthanasia experience I had with Dr. Korsgen. Dr. Korsgen was sympathetic, knowledgeable and knew just what to say to make a really difficult time a little easier. I’m glad I didn’t have to put Marley through the stress of bringing her to the vet. I was so thankful that the last moments for Marley were spent in her home. I would recommend Dr. Korsgen. I am so thankful that in home euthanasia is now an option. Thank you.
