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 was wonderful. She was calm, loving, understanding and provided reassurance when we had to put our 18 year old cat down. It was myself, husband and two teen kids and after she confirmed Bella was gone, she quietly said goodbye and let herself out as we were all sobbing over Bella. I really appreciated her demeanor and compassion.

Kristin Kemper was Ollie's vet for so many years and a big reason why he lived a healthy youthful long life! He always felt very at ease in her care. Having Kristin preside over Ollie's passing was a huge gift to him and to our family. It gave us a lot of peace saying goodbye to our Ollieboy at home in his favorite place, surrounded by his favorite people. He left so gently. We so appreciate Kristin's gentle and compassionate spirit, and of course the excellent care she gave Ollie throughout his long life. 💙

Dr Kemper was very kind, compassionate and patient throughout the whole process. We couldn't have picked a better vet for that difficult day.

Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is never easy but Dr. Kemper’s gentle, compassionate care made a painful experience better. I’m at peace that my Buddy crossed over on his favorite bed at home surrounded by family. Highly recommend.
