Dr. Katie Simpson

Dr. Katie was gentle, soft and subdued during a time when we only had eyes for our dog. She was in control and communicative but didn't demand attention and let our focus be on our last minutes with him. We felt assured he was in good hands. We are grateful for her patience, calm, and empathy.

Katie has euthanized two of our dogs in the space of 18 months, both on short notice due to increasingly aggressive cancers. She was so extraordinary last time that I we requested her by name this time. Words don’t do justice to her skill and empathetic demeanor. She feels like an honorary family member at this point, and we are incredibly grateful for her role in our toughest times.

We’ve experienced in-home pet euthanasia several times and the opportunity to let Munchkin leave us while resting in front of her fireplace rather than being crated for a drive to town was very valuable to all of us. Dr. Katie was very calm, comforting and compassionate and she made the process of letting Munchkin go one of love and respect. She was very attuned to Munchkin’s comfort and emotional needs, but also made sure that we thought about and understood how the other pets in the house might react to Munchkin’s passing.

Dr. Simpson was a literal angel on earth as she helped our elderly dog, Penny, transition. She was the most sweet, kind, and patient vet I had ever met. She was with us almost 90 minutes and gave us all the time we needed to walk through such an emotionally difficult process. She listened to our stories about Penny and was so incredibly compassionate and supportive. She even mailed us a card recounting in detail her enjoyment of the stories we shared of Penny’s adventures with us. We are forever grateful to Dr. Simpson and would wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone who is facing the difficult decision of saying goodbye to their fur baby.

Dr. Simpson went out of her way to provide us exceptional service including bringing our pet's clay paw print down to us so we did not have to make a special trip to Ft Collins to pick it up. During her visit with us she was so sympathetic to our situation and gentle and kind with all of our pets.

Dr. Katie was fantastic in a tough time for our family. She was caring, gentle, and comforting to both our dog Emmie and us. She did a great job making Emmie feel secure and at ease with her kindness. We thank her for providing such high level of care, and highly recommend her and her services.

Dr. Simpson was really great to work with. She understood the urgency of our need and came early in the morning even though she didn’t have any appointments available. She was very compassionate and calm and made this stressful situation much better.

Dr. Katie brought such compassion to our home during one of our hardest days. She explained the process very well and was nothing but caring during the entire process. I would highly recommend.

Her bedside manner is incredible. She was patient in explaining the process to my child in a way he could understand. She gave us as much time as we wanted to say goodbye and never once rushed us. Most importantly, she was sympathetic to our feelings around losing our pet without being pitying. I really appreciate her and won't hesitate to use her if/when we have to put another pet down.

Dr. Katie came to us close to the Christmas holiday with an impossible task: putting our 13-year-old dog to rest just 3 days before what’s supposed to be the happiest day of our kids year. She walked them through the entire procedure and even included them in the process so they could properly understand what was happening to their puppy dog as well as help him go to the next phase. I can’t say enough on how compassionate Dr. Katie was and, while we certainly never want to have to do these things, people like Dr. Katie make it something to be honored and respected. We appreciate her so much and believe she has played an important role in our children’s lives by helping them with the loss of their first pet. We cannot recommend her enough.

Dr Katie was a blessing for us during this process. I could not have asked for a more compassionate, knowledgeable, and kind person. This was one of the hardest thing my husband and I have had to do, but having Dr Katie with us through the process of putting down our beloved cat made the world of difference.

No one what’s to call Dr Katie but if you have to put your pet down, Dr Katie is the one to call. We had to say goodbye to our loving Bouvier Norman. Dr Katie handled this sad task with love and compassion for Norman as well as us. She was patient and kind and Norman passed peacefully with his head on my lap.

Also provided resources to help you through this. I've had to do this several times over the decades unfortunately. I highly recommend them. <3 <3

Dr. Simpson could not have been more kind, gentle and patient as she helped us say goodbye to our beloved Sadie. When we are faced with this heartbreaking situation again, we will absolutely seek her services again, and we recommend her 100%.

My beautiful miniature dachshund, Nala, crossed the rainbow bridge today and Dr. Katie Simpson was there to help with the journey. Dr. Katie was kind, gentle and compassionate - a terrific human. I never felt rushed and she explained everything kindly and thoroughly. Dr. Katie turned a terrible day into a bearable one. Thank you very much!

Dr. Katie Simpson was so considerate, gentle, and kind. She and her team made what was a very hard day a little bit better. I couldn't have asked for a better doctor to come to our home.
