Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I became a vet partly because I grew up on a ranch with a variety of animals and loved being able to help take care of them. I have wanted to be in this profession since I was five years old. I love spending time with my partner, pets, friends, and visiting all of the beautiful places in this world...especially in Colorado! Also love trail running and scuba diving.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Katie was just the person we needed to see us through the loss of our family cat. She let us tell stories, ugly cry, and sat in our backyard with us while our family said goodbye together. We were given much needed space and time to hold her after she died. I didn’t know I needed all the help she provided, but now I can’t imagine going through that without her there. Thank you Dr. Katie

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.

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. 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.

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 so compassionate, caring and let us control the timing of saying goodbye to our beloved Gracie. She followed up with a personalized hand written card and you can tell she truly cares and made a difficult day a little more easy to deal with. Absolutely a kind souls is Dr Katie!!
