Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
As a veterinarian, my journey with end-of-life care has been shaped by deeply personal experiences with both animals and humans. I have seen firsthand how difficult it can be to say goodbye, and I felt a profound calling to make this process as peaceful and compassionate as possible for pets and their families. Having worked with animals ranging from tiny reptiles to majestic elephants, I understand that every creature, regardless of size or species, deserves dignity, respect, and love—especially at the end of their life. By providing in-home pet euthanasia, I offer families the comfort of saying goodbye in a familiar, stress-free environment, surrounded by love and warmth. My passion for holistic care extends beyond just the physical well-being of animals. I believe in supporting both pets and their families through this challenging time by offering compassionate hospice care, guidance, and the space for meaningful moments in the comfort of home. At its core, my mission is simple: to provide a peaceful passing for pets and help their families navigate this emotional journey with the utmost care and empathy. Every pet deserves a peaceful goodbye, and every family deserves to feel supported throughout this process.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Sims was amazing and she handled her job with the utmost grace. Our dog Brooklyn was very calm and relaxed during the process. Dr. Sims also gave us comfort in knowing we were making the right decision.
As sad as having to lost a pet is, I was very happy with Dr. Sims and how loving and compassionate she was and the whole process was. I couldn't have imagined a better send-off for my pup.
Dr. Sims was phenomenal. Incredibly gentle and explained everything she was doing. If we ever need these services again I won’t hesitate to use her
Dr. Sims was absolutely amazing with helping us in this difficult decision. The way this company performs made the whole process less stressful for our sweet girl, Bella. ❤️ Now my baby is at peace.
Dr. Sims was so great. She was very patient and considerate to our emotions. She took her time and made sure our pet was very comfortable. I highly recommend her!
Dr. Michele, is a very pleasant, professional and caring veterinarian. She was able to help us through a difficult decision with our 13 year old Lily. We're very glad to have met her.
