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.

I would like to thank Dr. Norman for her genuine care and concern for our Brodie O'Shea Barlow. I called her to see if she could come sooner than our scheduled appointment. Even though she was working, she said she would come as soon as she could and she did. This was the hardest thing I have ever had to do and her patience and care for our family and especially for our Brodie helped us through this traumatic experience. I can't thank her enough for her kindness. Also, Jessica, whom I talked to on the phone was caring and compassionate, as well. I hope I never have to do this again, but if I do, I would definitely call Dr. Norman. Thank you.

Review by Dr. Stephanie Norman

I genuinely can’t imagine having gone through this experience without Dr Norman’s support and demeanor. She was incredibly respectful and compassionate , let us have space for grief, and also spoke to us through it in a way that was both informative and empathetic in a way that made me feel less dread during the entire process than I would have otherwise. Dr Norman took a very painful and slightly traumatic situation and made it feel like a funeral, celebrating the cat’s life with respect and love, vs. a clinical procedure. And yet she also explained every step of the way where my pet was along in the process. I know for certain she was not in pain during it. Thank you very much

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.

Review by Dr. Stephanie Norman

I am grateful to Dr. Stephanie Norman for coming to our home and making such a heart-wrenching process a little less stressful. I had my cat Noodles for 17 years. He was the center of my world and when his little body was riddled with Cancer I had to set him free. Dr. Stephanie Norman was kind an reassuring. She explained the whole process as she went. I highly recommend her if you need to say goodbye to your furry loved one.

My little demon of 16 years had stage 4 kidney disease and so I knew it was a matter of time. Unfortunately, that time came crashing down faster than I thought when I had to make a midnight run to the ER vet. The vet told me Nox should be in their hospital with his elevated kidney values, but understood (& agreed) when I talked about euthanasia. I made an appt with Dr. Stephanie Norman and had her come out yesterday. I was very emotional and anxious, but she put me at ease quickly, and walked through everything that would happen and why. She was both professional and very caring during the whole process. I could have ended things that Saturday at the ER vet, but wanted Nox to be at home feeling safe when it happened. As painful as the situation was at the time (& still is), I'm glad I went that route.
