Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

As my career has progressed, I have found helping pets transition out of this life to be the most meaningful and gratifying part of my job. The decision to say goodbye can be the most difficult and compassionate decision we make in the lives of our pets. Being able to do this in the comfort and warmth of one's own home can help ease this transition. I have been offering clients in-home euthanasia for years, and am grateful to extend this service to the community at large.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Kemper came to my residence to put my beloved dog, Nolan, to sleep. She was both compassionate and professional. Most importantly, she was very kind to Nolan.

Dr. Kemper was lovely. She was very kind and compassionate as we said our goodbyes to our beloved tux-kitty, Rerun. This was our first time of having a pet euthanized at home. I can’t imagine how it could have gone better. We are very grateful for this service and for Dr. Kemper’s patience and understanding.

I had a very peaceful experience, Dr. Kemper was so very gentle, kind and up most respectful to me and my pet. She made the experience of “putting my dog down” in my home so serene & anxiety free for both me and my precious dog Finnley, so grateful❤️ Thank you so much Dr. Kemper

Jessica, with CodaPet, and Kristin, the vet, were both always emotionally supportive as we journeyed through our 4-footed family member's final uncertain days. When multiple cancer tumors are ravaging your pet's body, it's hard to know the best time to say goodbye, not wanting him to suffer yet allowing for as many of the remaining good days as possible. The right choice doesn't always feel good, but Kristin and Jessica helped make the transition as compassionate as possible. Forever thank you.

Dr. Kemper was so kind and gentle with our family as we let our beloved dog go. She listened to our stories about her and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye. We are so grateful that she brought peace to such a painful day.

Review by Dr. Kristin Kemper

Dr. Kristin was so kind and passionate with Titan and my family. It was such a hard decision to let our beloved family member Titan go, but Dr. Kristin made sure we knew it was the best decision we could make so Titan was not suffering any longer. He lived a long life, almost 14 years for a 100 pound lab/terrier mix. I don’t think I could’ve made a better decision then calling Dr. Kristin.
