Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Early on, I had a tremendous fascination with animals of all kinds, I found comfort and compassion from them in times of need as a child and on into adulthood. In elementary school, I would be the first to take care of the class pet. There were many: anoles (lizards), hamsters, and guinea pigs to name a few. Science classes intrigued me and were where I excelled. My anatomy class in high school sealed the deal. Ultimately, I wanted to care for animals and challenge myself to solve medical problems. Over time, it progressed to caring for not only the animal but also for their human owners. I have always offered at-home euthanasia services, having performed them for my own personal pets, and I realized the more peaceful experience for all involved. The last several years I've provided oncology (cancer) services to clients and their pets. With this comes the knowledge that even with treatment, most cancers will be terminal, and providing in-home end-of-life service to the numerous pets I treated in this capacity reinforced firsthand how beneficial in-home euthanasia is to the pet and their family when it comes time, allowing for the most gentle and tranquil passing.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Krueger arrived at our home with so much compassion and gentleness to our family and made our sweet Louie relaxed and feeling calmness and love. She explained everything so well and gave us the time we needed to process each step and to let him go over the rainbow in a very peaceful way. We highly recommend Jenny and having this process in the comfort in your home with your family together in a setting of love and warmth.

Deeply grateful for Dr. Krueger's compassion and kindness on one of the most painful days of my life. I am fortunate I was able to let my beloved cat, Dory, go in the comfort of her home and with great care from Dr. Krueger.

Review by Dr. Jenny Krueger

Dr Krueger is very compassionate and caring. She let us know what was going on and walked us through the process step by step. She took a genuine interest in our Minnie and wanted to hear about her life. She made a heart wrenching process so much easier.

Dr. Krueger was excellent! She was nice and respectful. She asked about our girl, Daisy, and our life with her. She interacted with Daisy and was a calming influence. She answered all of our questions and walked us thru every step of the way. She gave us the space we needed to grieve as a family. Dr. Krueger helped make a very sad, emotional, devastating experience as calm, serene, and beautiful as possible. We cannot ever say enough about Dr. Krueger to do her justice.
