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

I was and still am highly impressed with the kind, compassionate manner Dr. Kemper approached my dog and myself. She softly gained my dog, Luna's trust, and eased her into a peaceful sleep. In the three weeks after our encounter, when I think about it I feel that Dr. Kemper's supportive, thoughtful manner helped make the sad event seem reverent and meaningful.

Dr. Kemper was so kind, compassionate and gentle as we said goodbye to our Cookie. She explained the process completely and reassured us our pup was comfortable and pain free throughout. Cookie was able to peacefully cross over in her favorite spot in the front yard and we avoided the fear and trauma she would have experienced from a last trip to the vet. I can't speak highly enough of in-home euthanasia and Dr. Kemper specifically. I'll definitely choose this again the next time we have to say goodbye to a fur-baby.

Dr.Kemper is truly the best, she is very patient and calm. I had no idea what it all entailed and she explained everything before it happened. Highly recommend!
