Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Our pets are one of the few constants in our life. They play such a grounding role for us, with their unconditional love and support. It is truly the last loving decision we can make as their caretakers to help them pass peacefully, with dignity and respect. As a veterinarian that has helped with end-of-life care both in home and in a clinic, I see the many great benefits for families and their pets with the privacy of in-home services, where both are the most comfortable and relaxed in their own environment.

What pet parents are saying

Our dear hound Frankie woke up Saturday morning unable to walk due to the pain of his hip dysplasia. We knew our 13 yr old friend suffered from the condition, but it finally crippled him. We spent a sleepless night, watching him agonize over not being able to go outside to do his business. Sunday morning I looked for home services for pet euthanasia and found Dr. Mumm. She replied immediately and put me at ease. Frankie had suffered abuse before we adopted him and had a terrible fear of riding in a vehicle so we needed someone to come to us. She arrived and explained the procedure calmly and sympathetically. Our whole family was able to be there to say goodbye. It is one of the hardest choices a pet lover has to make, but Dr, Mumm did everything right, as far as we are concerned. Have already recommended her to friends and family. Thank you!

Dr. Mumm was incredible. She called the morning of the appointment and talked about the process. She offered to come earlier than the scheduled appointment time if that would make it easier on us. When she got to our house she took time to get to know our Sunshine a little bit and talk about what was going on with her. She also let me talk about Sunshine, my memories of her and what a wonderful dog she has been for us. She was so kind and reassured us that we were doing the best thing for my little girl. We have lost many pets due to old age, but this was the hardest time ever. Thank you to Dr. Mumm for making it as gentle as possible.

Last week we had to say goodbye to our beloved 15 year old dog, Caesar. Making this end of life decision was beyond difficult. Dr. Jessica Mumm was truly an angel there to guide us through the process. Her genuinely compassionate and gentle presence was so much appreciated by our whole family. I cannot recommend her enough if you are in need of end of life assistance for your pet.

Review by Dr. Jessica Mumm

If I could give Dr. Jessica 100 stars, I absolutely would. We recently faced one of the hardest moments of our lives, saying goodbye to our 10.5 year old golden retriever, Seamus (left in photo), just five months after losing his littermate, Logan (right in photo). It was a heart wrenching decision, but Dr. Jessica made an unbearable experience as comforting and compassionate as humanly possible. From the moment she arrived at our home, she felt less like a doctor coming to perform a service and more like a trusted family member walking alongside us. She came out to our back porch where Seamus was resting. Although he was too weak to show his usual smiles, he still greeted her with a wagging tail, a testament to the warmth and gentleness she brought with her. Dr. Jessica took her time to sit with us, pet and love Seamus and explain every step of the process with such patience and care. She emphasized over and over, "Take your time," and "It's okay. When you're ready." There was never a sense of being rushed, only compassion, understanding and genuine love for our boy in his final moments. She even brought extra treats for Seamus, ensuring he was spoiled with love and kindness right to the end. Dr. Jessica also had a couple of thoughtful surprises for us that meant a great deal to our family. Her attention to both the emotional and professional aspects of her visit was extraordinary. If you are reading this and struggling with an impossible decision, I am deeply sorry. I understand the pain you're feeling. But if it offers even a small bit of comfort, I can confidently say Dr. Jessica is the person you want by your side. We will forever be grateful for the care, dignity and compassion she showed us and Seamus during this heartbreaking time. Thank you, Dr. Jessica! You are truly a blessing.

This was the best possible choice for saying goodbye to our pet. Jessica is very informative, compassionate, gentle, humane and loving to both the pet and the humans! We needed someone to come out to our house right away. Jessica bent her schedule to fit us in at the last moment. She offered us options for afterwards, including take away of your loved one and help with deciding what to do with their remains. In our case it includes delivery to our vet when our cats ashes are ready to come home. She gave us a paw print of our kitty and a few other things. This was my kids first pet and my first time having to do this, so it was especially hard for us. I was very nervous and scared. This was perfect for our situation and for helping my kids go through it. I have already told a few people about our experience. I hope this place thrives and continues to do the great work they do. It takes a very special person to do this service. Thank you!
