Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Our pets provide us so much joy and happiness, that we can't ever truly be ready to say goodbye. After participating in euthanasia's in a clinic setting for 15 years, I'm relieved to be able to provide a more relaxing, peaceful, and personal alternative to pets and their families.

What pet parents are saying

No other vet I've used before for at home pet euthanasia can compare to Dr. Pugh. During our difficult time saying goodbye to sweet Minnie, she was patient and compassionate with not only Minnie but with my other fur babies and me.

Dr Kristina Pugh was a very compassionate caring person at this difficult time. She was professional while also helping us cope with the loss of Benny. Once again thank you so much for what you did for us and I would recommend her to anyone who is in this difficult time of need.

Dr. Pugh was absolutely amazing during our very devastating time. She handled our boy with such care and took the proper action to ensure he was comfortable and not suffering. Dr. Pugh's compassion and empathy during the whole process and even thereafter was unprecedented. We are thankful everyday that she was our vet and helped make the most difficult moment in our lives bearable.

Perfect choice. Dedicated and compassionate pet doctor. Home euthanizing of my beloved, elderly cat was made much easier with Dr. Pugh. God bless her for helping our animals and us through our heart breaking times.

We cannot thank Dr Kristina Pugh enough for the compassion and professionalism she showed during one of the hardest moments of our lives. When we had to say goodbye to our beloved Sunny, her gentle approach, genuine care and understanding made an incredibly difficult situation bearable. Dr Pugh handled everything with such kindness, explaining the whole process clearly and treating Sunny with dignity and respect. We are forever grateful for the empathy and professionalism she showed us.
