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 was phenomenal. This is not the first pet I have had to let go however, with Dr. Sara’s help, understanding and compassion it was the most peaceful. She is patient and allowed us to move at our pace. Thank you again. You are a saint!

Review by Dr. Sara Gardhouse

Dr. Sara was absolutely the kindest person, we were so torn on what to do with the poor older dog and we knew he was in such pain. Caring Pathways and Dr. Sara were exactly what we needed in this tough decision and heartbreaking reality.

Dr Guardhouse was very compassionate during our appointment. Choosing to put our dog down at home was absolutely the best decision for us and our pet. Dr Gardhouse took her time to explain the process and make sure we were ready to move to the next step. Our dog's final minutes surrounded by family and getting plenty of love was the perfect way to say goodbye to our beloved pet.

Review by Dr. Sara Gardhouse

Dr. Gardhouse is one of the most caring veterinarians I have ever worked with. She went above and beyond to support us during this difficult time, and she genuinely cares for both the pets and their families. I would recommend her to anyone that wants nothing but the best for their little loved ones. She is truly exceptional, and genuinely suited for one of the most difficult jobs there is. Thank you, Dr. Gardhouse!
