Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Growing up as early as about 13 years old I loved animals and wanted to work with them to some capacity as part of my career. Once starting college I obtained a job as a veterinary technician assistant and the rest is history. I never saw myself offering In Home Euthanasia as a career within this profession, although a big part of my job on a day to day basis is performing this procedure. It was only after being able to perform this on my own pet in my own home that I was awakened with the huge difference it made and the comfort it offered both myself, my family and my passing pet. After experiencing this I wanted to ensure others in my area had an option like this as this service is not offered in the area I live. I am happy to do so and look forward to allowing other pet parents to benefit from the service.

What pet parents are saying
Dr.Josh Williams is truly remarkable. He is one of the nicest, most compassionate people I have ever met. If it's time to have to say goodbye to your beloved pet, and I couldn't even do that, this is the only way to do it. Thank you, Dr. Williams.
We’re incredibly grateful that Josh was there to help our boy peacefully cross over. He took the time to explain everything, and his presence made us feel safe and comforted, even during such an unbearably difficult moment. Given the circumstances, we wouldn’t have wanted to say goodbye any other way. Josh will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we are deeply thankful for his compassion and the gift he gave us.
Dr. Williams is kind and amazing. It was an honor to have him help our dog make it to the rainbow bridge. He was patient, kind, kept us informed of what exactly was happening, and gave us room to be with our dog exactly as we needed to be with him. We never felt rushed. I honestly can't say enough about Dr. Williams. He is in my phone forevermore because he will be the one sending any further family members home, rather than taking them someplace where they're afraid. Dude got to die surrounded by love, and to that I cannot thank Dr. Williams enough.

Dr. Williams is an amazing individual. I have already decided to use his service again when it is time to put my other pet to rest. He was very courteous, professional, and caring. The process was so much more pleasant, and less stressful for both my pet and myself than other times when I had to take my pet in to the vets office to be put to rest.
I had been dreading the day I’d have to say goodbye to my sweet girl for a while, between being worried that a vet wouldn’t believe me when I said she was ready and just knowing what the rushed process of having this done in a vet clinic is like. I could not be more grateful to have found Dr. Josh. He was a huge answer to prayer. As others have said, he is very gentle and kind and doesn’t bring an inappropriately high energy to the situation. He let us take our time, he throughly walked us through everything that would happen, and most importantly to me, he reassured us that we were making the right decision for our girl. He even got down on the floor to talk to my grieving toddler and explain that our girl was ready and answered his questions. Losing my girl was so incredibly painful, but Dr. Josh provided us with the best experience we could have had. We got to be in her favorite room in the house by an open window so she could breathe the warm, fresh air while lying on her softest bed in my arms as she fell asleep. No rush, no noise of other pets/people around us, and no having to walk to a front desk afterward to pay the bill while barely holding it together. Dr. Josh’s care for every pet he meets is obvious, and I would highly recommend him and his services to anybody who is needing to help their beloved fur babies cross over to the rainbow bridge!
