Dr. Stephanie Norman
Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
My desire to be a veterinarian dates back to my kindergarten days when I took care of orphaned wildlife. That love for animals has been unwavering ever since. I have even volunteered my veterinary services in international and national aid efforts to improve the lives of animals, people and the communities in which they live. One of those services is providing support for pets and their parents during end-of-life decisions. With my extensive experience, genuine concern for animals and their parents, and an unwavering commitment to providing the best veterinary care, you can trust that beloved pets will receive the utmost compassion and expertise under my care. Through offering in-home euthanasia, I will help ease the transition for both pets and their parents.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Norman explained process clearly, was empathetic, and respectful. Treated our Buddy and the whole family with much appreciated excellent care.
Dr. Norman was absolutely wonderful. She was very professional and compassionate when my family needed it most and it was easy to tell that she truly cared not only for her patient but also my family. I found myself in Kenmore, WA after losing both my parents in 2023 trying to clean out their house and manage their estate. We traveled from Phoenix and brought all of our animals with us since we were going to be gone so long. Our 16 year old cat had been having kidney issues for about a year and finally it came time to help her move on to the next life. Dr. Norman came out to the house and explained the process and then took great care to ensure my family was comfortable with the decision and then proceeded to gently do what was needed to end Cassie’s pain. On top of the loss, we were set to drive back to Phoenix in less than a week and the thought of not taking Cassie home with us was not something we could bear. Dr. Norman called her contacts at the cremation facility and made a request to have the cremation and return of Cassie’s ashes expedited so we could bring her home with us to lay her to rest at our home. She delivered on her promise and we received her remains a few days before we had to leave. Cassie is now resting peacefully with her sister Nala, thanks to Dr. Norman going above and beyond to take care of everything for us and make sure that my family had the opportunity to start the grieving process and bring our beloved Cassie home with us. I can’t thank Dr. Norman enough for all she did to give my family peace in what has been a very hard year for us. Thank you again!
Dr. Norman helped us make an incredibly difficult choice. She was patient, thoughtful and very knowledgeable. She went above and beyond, talking to me on the phone before our appointment and giving helpful advice for things to watch for and think about prior to our appointment. Her kindness and expertise were invaluable and I’ll always be grateful for giving my beloved dog a peaceful end.
Dr Norman was awesome. Ultra professional and efficient while expressing genuine compassion and empathy that allowed our family to grieve and experience this exceptionally difficult time as peacefully and easily as possible. I would definitively recommend Dr Norman to anyone.
Dr. Stephanie Norman was truly a gift from God. Our sweet little 16 year old bichon, Frosty, was such a joy to our family, however, he got to the place that he was suffering and we made the difficult decision to put him down. Dr. Stephanie was so sincere in her compassion and care for the situation, even going on the floor under our daughter's desk where Frosty was lying in his bed to deliver the euthanasia. Our dog couldn't have been in better hands and we couldn't have had a more respectful transition for our pooch to his new life in Heaven. (She even lovingly brought a basket and pillows from Home Goods that she placed our dog in as she took him with her.) Thank you again for such a wonderful, peaceful way for our pooch to go home.
Very little is easy about the passing of a beloved pet and family member. In our case, our beloved kitty of 20 years went downhill in a rapid fashion and Dr. Norman was able to assist in a difficult process with grace, elegance and compassion. Of everything involved, Dr. Norman was the best part, providing ease and helping with the grieving process in every step of the way. Her communication from scheduling to delivery of Cypress home was always professional and empathetic.
