Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Ive always been an animal lover growing up, and though I have worked a variety of careers, I always ended up back with animals. I worked in clinical practice and enjoyed spending time with my clients, holding their hands as we talked through different disease outcomes and treatment plans, and, eventually crying with them during their last visit as they said goodbye to their pet. I wanted to provide in-home euthanasia so that people could spend the time saying goodbye at their own pace.

What pet parents are saying
This was the best possible experience we could have had for such a devastating day. Dr. Lauren was kind and thoughtful throughout the whole process even spending time over the phone with us the night before. She was a great listener and comforter. We are so heartbroken to have had to say goodbye to our best boy, but we are so happy we chose this service.
I am completely amazed at how Dr. Lauren handled such a delicate and difficult moment. She is lovely, kind and full of grace. When she came into our home she immediately sat in the floor with our pup and loved on her as she explained the process to us. She was so gentle both with our elderly pup and with our tender emotions while we were saying goodbye to our beloved Scarlet. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Lauren forever. Thank you
Lauren (Dr. Frary) was amazing. This was our first time going through this and it was extremely difficult and emotional for our family. We weren't sure at first if this was the best option for our cat, but Lauren looked him over and considered his history and made an objective, professional assessment that this was a good option for him, but never pressured us one way or another. I was so impressed with Lauren's softness, kindness, and understanding of all of our concerns and answered all of our questions. And she was so conscientious and considerate of our pain. From the exact words she used to her gentle mannerisms to the beautiful basket and blanket she brought to take care of our boy, her consideration and kindness and how she did nothing to rush us nor pressure us means that I have been recommending her to anyone with an interest in this service. It costs a bit, but letting our boy go in the kindest, most humane, loving, and gentle way was worth every penny.
Choosing to have your pet euthanized is a difficult experience, but we knew it was time for our cat as he had been struggling with the effects of HCM for weeks. We chose in-home pet euthanasia because Scout always hated being taken to the vet and we didn't want to cause further stress in his final hours. Fortunately Dr. Lauren Frary was near where we live and I had read great reviews about her work. I just want to add that they were all warranted. Dr. Frary was kind and engaged both with us and Scout. The process was explained in detail and we had plenty of time to say our goodbyes. The procedure went smoothly and peacefully. We're so glad we chose Dr. Frary for this difficult choice--she made it a much more pleasant experience.
I was super grateful for Dr Lauren’s kindness during the whole process. Making the decision to put my best bud of 18 years down was so difficult but her kindness, grace and professionalism made it a little easier. I appreciate her texting earlier in the day, and allowing me to ask questions and process it all. I appreciate the space that she held for me, allowing me to take what time I needed and the way she explained the whole process.
My dog is my baby. After almost 15 years together it was time to let her go. Dr.frary was amazing explained everything, let us take as much time as we needed to say goodbye. And was so respectful. Would recommend hands down
