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
Dr Pugh was amazing. I cannot describe how gentle, considerate, caring and respectful she was with my dog and with the situation. She made such a hard and sad event as peaceful and as dignified as humanly possible. When the time comes to make that hard decision with my other dog, I hope Dr Pugh is available.
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.
We used the at home euthanasia services of Dr. Kristina Pugh for our cat Cricket. I am very thankful for the comfort she was able to provide us. The process was very smooth and professional in the comfort of our own home. Dr. Kristina provided a paw print for keepsake and helped us with after care arrangements. The peaceful, radiant vibe of Dr. Kristina is exactly what I want if I ever have to use at home euthanasia services. If the time comes when I have to do this again I will surely contact Dr. Pugh.
Not enough superlatives to describe Dr. Pugh. She is a saint. She guided us through an extremely difficult event with a combination of professionalism and genuine compassion for us and our beloved Cooper. A very, very kind , gentle, and nice person.
Dr. Pugh is one of the most compassionate people I have met in a long time. She guided me through the process with kid gloves. I couldn’t have had a better experience in such a very difficult and heartbreaking situation.
