Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I see veterinary medicine as a profession of service, service to the animals in need of care and service to their owners who share and mutually celebrate the human animal bond. Every animal whom I care for teaches me something and helps me be a better veterinarian and a better person. In-home euthanasia is a gift that we can give our pets. We can provide solace for them and our families by letting them pass on in a place they know surrounded by those they love. In-home euthanasia allows us to be able to advocate for our pets and make the choice for how we want to say goodbye.

When I called, I talked to a very nice gentleman. He put me at ease and helped me make this difficult appointment. Dr. Dixon was very professional. She let us know everything she was doing and what to expect. But, her compassion was above and beyond anything I have experienced before. Thank you so much for helping us through this difficult time.

Review by Dr. JoAnne Dixon

"I wasn't aware of this at home service and I wish my primary Vet had suggested it as an option. Thank God a friend suggested this. My dog was able to pass in his own home environment with a ton of love around him. JoAnne was professional and caring and walked us through step by step. This is the only route we will take from now on. I highly recommend this option." Please share your feedback on a Google review so that more pet parents around the area will become aware of this option.

She took very good care of Lilly, and she took very good care of the family surrounding her. She made us feel like she was part of our family. I will always remember how Lilly was wrapped up in the blankets as she was taken away so cozy and warm.

Dr. Dixon was so kind and helped Eddie with a peaceful passing. She was compassionate. I’m grateful she was able to help us with our sweet boy Eddie. He had cancer and she helped us say goodbye to Eddie. I miss Eddie so much. Thank you Dr. Dixon for your kindness.
