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 incredibly compassionate and caring even though we booked a same day appointment and she had not met our family before. Our dog was so clearly in pain that day and we needed help urgently, she was truly incredible. I work in hospice (for humans) and had high expectations, she exceeded all of them. I just can't say enough about how she made a very difficult situation less painful for the whole family.
Dr. Jessica was amazing. She had so much care for our sweet George and the entire family. She listened to our stories and never pushed us. She was patient and really made a very sad day a little easier. Having to say goodbye to a beloved furry family member is never fun, but Dr. Jessica was a true blessing for our family. We can’t say enough good things about our experience. We are grateful for her help.
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.
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.
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!
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.❤️
