Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I've found helping people say goodbye to their cherished pets to be one of the most gratifying and fulfilling aspects of the practice of veterinary medicine. It truly is an honor and privilege to be a part of end-of-life care for my patients.

What pet parents are saying

We made a very difficult decision to euthanize our sweet Shorthair Havanese dog. She was 13 years old and we had her since 7 weeks old. We decided that in home euthanasia would be the best option for our family and for Snickers. Dr. Martin brought his calm and caring presence at our agreed time. He greeted us and our Snickers with compassion and consideration for the difficult decision we made. He made us all comfortable with the decision we made and understood that Snickers was ready for that cross over to the Rainbow Bridge. We didn't feel rushed and was able to spend the last moments with her. We have another dog who is 15.5 years old and when his time comes, we hope to make a similar choice when the time is right.

Dr. Lane was so amazing. He explained every thing thoroughly to us when we had to put our sweet dog down. He answered every one of our questions that we had. It was so much better than having to take our dog to the vet.

Dr. Martin was wonderful. Kind, thoughtful, informative, and skilled at the task of painlessly helping my best friend, Sunny the cat, move on to her next life. He also listened patiently. I am really grateful for Dr. Martin's excellent, compassionate care.

Review by Dr. Lane Martin

Our cat went downhill really fast from kidney failure and we wanted to help him pass away peacefully at home. We were able to get a same-day appointment with Dr. Lane Martin, scheduled online. Dr. Martin communicated with us via text so we'd know when he was arriving (he got stuck in traffic, but let us know so we had a few extra minutes with our sweet cat). At our home, Dr. Martin was compassionate and respectful, explaining the process and giving us plenty of time to say goodbye to our cat. He administered a sedative first, and we were able to hold and pet our cat as he peacefully passed away. Dr. Martin then stepped out of the room so we could take the time we needed to say goodbye. Losing a beloved pet is so hard, but I'm extremely grateful that our cat was able to pass peacefully at home. Thank you, Dr. Martin.

Dr. Lane was patient, explained the process well and there to answer any questions I had. He was empathetic and a great vet to work with during a very sad and stressful time.
