Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I became a veterinarian with a specific mission in mind: to ensure that every animal receives the gift of a peaceful, pain-free passing. While veterinary clinics are places of healing, the clinical environment can often be a source of stress and anxiety for a pet in their final moments. I believe that every pet deserves to spend their last breath in the place they love most, surrounded by familiar scents and the people who cherish them. By bringing end-of-life care into the home, I aim to honor the dignity of each individual and transform a difficult goodbye into a gentle, private, and sacred transition.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Schott was a wonderful and caring support when we had to say goodbye to our Fiona. Our family appreciated the kindness during such a difficult time.
Dr. Renee was patient and kind. Making the decision to help your dog through the final stage of their life is very difficult, and filled with sadness and grief. We appreciate her thoughtfulness on this difficult day
Dr Renee Schott was amazing in our time of need. Our orange tabby, Pooh Bear, took a turn for the worse overnight and Dr Renee responded so quickly when we reached out for help. She came out to our home and walked us through each step of putting Pooh to sleep. She let us grieve and say good bye while helping us remember how funny and loved he was. She had a big fluffy blanket and basket to take him and we felt at peace when she left. Even though we never met before, she left feeling to us like family. Someone who cared for our baby. Can't thank you enough Dr Renee!
Dr. Schott was very kind and understanding during our difficult time. We very much appreciate their help and would easily recommend Dr. Schott to anyone who cares for their pets. Thank you.
Dr. Renee Schott provides an amazing service. She turns a difficult time into an experience of knowing that your family friend moved on in a calm, painless, and peaceful manner. There’s no good way to go through this, but using Dr. Schott is a decision you will be glad you made. She makes your pet, you, and your family members all feel as ease with the transition.
Dr. Renee took the time to answer our questions. She let us know when she was close to the house so we could be ready and she was patient as we said good bye to our sweet boy. Decidedly one of our worst days but we are grateful that she came to our home. Murphy was in his comfortable surroundings with everyone who loved him and we could grieve in privacy.
