Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I have loved animals from the time I can remember and pursuing veterinary medicine meant that I got to spend every day with the animals I love and helping them from all avenues. In my many years as a veterinarian, I deeply understand the challenges of treating critically ill patients and the nuances of end-of-life care. I am honored to help pets pass away peacefully in the comfort of their home and with their loving family at their side.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Sara recently helped us say goodbye to our sweet girl cat. It was such a hard time for us and she was very mindful of that. We are grateful to have done this at home and the service she provides is beyond appreciated. The compassion and empathy she shows means a lot. The Cremation company used was great and respectful. Chloe was home within 8 days. We highly recommend this company and Dr.Sara.

Review by Dr. Sara Gardhouse

Dr Sara Gardhouse was an amazing support during the hardest time putting our cat down. She was so sincere and kind and was able to come out the same day when we needed her most. Highly recommend her if you have to go through this process.

Dr. Sara was kind and compassionate during one of the most difficult moments for a pet owner. She allowed us to move along at our own pace during our dog Jack's crossing over the rainbow bridge, and let us take as much time as needed for each stage of the process. I highly recommend her as a vet for anyone that is facing this difficult time.

Dr. Gardhouse was very kind and compassionate throughout the entire process. Nothing could have made the day easier, but Dr. Gardhouse gave us all the time that we needed and to say our goodbyes and walked us through every step. We felt relieved knowing our Uno passed surrounded at home with a big belly full of salmon, surrounded by her loved ones and without pain.

Dr Sara was incredible. She was incredibly compassionate for Both Tux and his family. Could not recommend someone more highly if you have to make this difficult decision.

Dr. Gardhouse was so empathetic and caring with me and my kids. She reached out before and after to let me know she was available for anything. She made a difficult process as seamless and comforting a possible. Thank you, Dr. Gardhouse!
