Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Being a vet was a childhood dream that started when I was about 4 years old. I started to develop a strong interest in senior pets and end of life care during vet school. I loved the human animal bond and felt so much reward from being able to walk with owners through their pet's later stages of life. I grew up with a little Westie named Maxie. She was my constant companion through grade school and started living with me when I went to vet school. I was her sole caregiver during her "senior years" until I made the decision to say goodbye to her when she was 17 years old. I was a vet at the time and had the gift of having my colleague being able to come to my home. I said goodbye to Maxie surrounded by friends in the comfort of our home. I wish everyone had the opportunity to say goodbye to their furry family members where so many of their memories are made and where they feel most comfortable.

Dr. Stukey did a great job. She was very nice and compassionate and gave us all of the time that we needed with Maya. It's such a hard thing to go through and she made it as bearable as possible.

Dr. Kirsten was so patient, compassionate, and understanding with us during the most difficult time. I would recommend her to any of my friends or family who are going through the hard decision of putting a dear pet down.

Very kind and empathetic. Answers questions and has a warm personality and tone of voice. She also did the cutest set up of my cat bundled up after when I wasn't sure if I wanted to look or not and I'm glad I did, she looked peaceful and like herself
