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
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.
I can't say enough about the care and true feelings Dr. Jessica had for my cat Sasi and I. She provided us with everything for a gentle and comfortable good bye for my sweet girl. I was able to continue petting her gently the entire time. I highly recommend this service to anyone with a beloved pet.❤️
Dr Jessica was absolutely wonderful ❤️ She made one the hardest days, as peaceful as it could possibly be. Having our sweet Bonny at home, where she was the most content, was such a blessing!! I am forever grateful for this service!!❤️🐾
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!
She was very caring, and you can tell how much she loves animals. She helped us feel better about our decision to have to put down our beloved pet and helped us know we were doing the right thing for our cat. She did her best to explain everything that we were going to be experiencing. It takes a very special person to do what she does and we were very grateful to have us there helping our cat at the end.
When we made the painful decision that it was time to send our sweet Bella to heaven, we knew her final moments needed to be spent in the comfort of her own home — relaxed, calm, and surrounded by the love she gave us every day of her life. It was the least we could do for her after all the unconditional love she had given us. Dr. Jessica Mumm was an absolute blessing during one of the hardest moments we’ve ever faced. She was incredibly kind, compassionate, and professional from the moment she arrived. She explained everything gently, moved at our pace, and gave us all the time we needed to hold Bella, talk to her, and say our goodbyes without ever feeling rushed. Her presence brought peace into a heartbreaking moment, and she made Bella’s transition as gentle and dignified as possible. We will forever be grateful for the care, respect, and empathy she showed our girl — and us. If you are facing the impossible decision of in-home pet euthanasia, I cannot recommend Dr. Mumm highly enough. She gave our Bella the peaceful passing she deserved, and that is a gift we will always remember.
