Verified Veterinarian
When I was in high school, I was required to perform service hours. I started volunteering at a local stable and took care of all the horses, led trail rides, farm tours, etc. I decided I wanted to be able to give back to these animals that help us every day. I majored in Animal Sciences while in undergrad and then worked as a small animal surgery and anesthesia technician while awaiting my vet school acceptance. Originally, I went to veterinary school to specialize in equine sports medicine and radiology and I even completed an equine internship post-graduation. However, I quickly learned I have a special place in my heart for hospice care. Six months before starting vet school, I had to put down my beloved family rescue dog that I had for 10 years. She was terrified of everyone besides my mom and I, and she hated being in a vet office. Having to put her to sleep in a strange room surrounded by strange people was horrible. I would like to offer my services in order to help your furry friend cross the rainbow bridge in their own safe space, surrounded by the people they love.

We cannot thank Dr. Nicolette Michelli enough for the compassion, kindness, and grace she showed our family during one of the hardest moments of our lives. From the moment she arrived, her calm presence and genuine empathy brought us comfort during an incredibly emotional time. Choosing in-home euthanasia allowed our beloved pet to remain in a familiar, peaceful environment, surrounded by love, and Dr. Michelli handled every step with such tenderness and respect. She took the time to explain the process, never rushed us, and treated our pet with the dignity they deserved. It was clear how deeply she cares—not just about animals, but about the families who love them. This is not an easy role, and it takes a truly special person to provide this kind of care with so much compassion. We will forever be grateful to Dr. Michelli for helping our sweet companion pass so peacefully and for giving us a moment of calm and closure during such a heartbreaking goodbye. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing this difficult decision.
Dr. Michelli made our hard day much easier. She explained everything with such delicate detail. Just her demeanor was so calming. I feel like she was placed perfectly for us. It was a heartbreaking day but she gave us the peace we needed. I wouldn't do it any other way and glad our baby got to go over the rainbow bridge in our own home.
Dr. Michelli did an exceptional job taking easing our furry friends passage across the “rainbow” bridge. She made sure we knew how every step worked and made it as painless as possible. In a difficult time she provided a service that exceeded our expectations.
Dr. Michelli was the most caring person during this difficult time. She loved on our pups, listened to all of our stories about her through the process and cried with us. It made the event easier to process through our grief. She is an amazing person to do what she does.
I am so glad we had Dr. Michelli out to our house during this very difficult time. She was perfect. Could not asked more from the Dr.
Words can not express how grateful I am for Dr. Michelli. Nobody ever wants to go through the loss of a pet, but Dr. Michelli was an absolute blessing to go through this experience with. She was so compassionate and her professionalism was astonishing. The detailed care that went into the handling of my pet was extraordinary and beyond words. One of the best experiences I have ever had considering the circumstances. Thank you Dr. Michelli for everything you did for my family ❤️
