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.

Letting a beloved pet go is always a tough decision and one that isn't made lightly. I had scheduled an appointment with Dr. Kemper for late Thursday afternoon. That morning, my dog went out to go potty, came in, laid down and never got up. He told me it was his time and I was thankful a vet was scheduled for that afternoon. Dr. Kemper was kind gracious and understanding. I had never done an in home euthanasia before but I am so thankful I did. My dog had a very peaceful passing in the comfort of his own home with me close to him. There was no fear or trepidation on his part. I highly recommend Dr. Kemper if there is a need.

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 very calm and reassuring and we never felt rushed. She was also very clear about the process and what to expect, and was very very kind to our dog.
