Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

From a young age I have always felt a strong connection with animals. As I progressed in school, I was fascinated and excelled in biology and science, so choosing a career in veterinary medicine was a natural choice. I believe that every animal deserves compassionate care and I strive to provide the highest standard of care to all of my patients. After years of providing emergency care for pets in Memphis, I chose to extend my practice to include in-home euthanasia. Recognizing the emotional and sensitive nature of end-of-life decisions for pets, I wanted to offer a more comfortable and familiar environment for both the animals and their owners during this difficult time. By providing in-home euthanasia, I aim to create a peaceful and compassionate atmosphere, allowing pets to be surrounded by their loved ones in the comfort of their own homes. I believe that this personalized approach not only helps ease the emotional burden for pet owners but also ensures a more peaceful transition for the pet, allowing them to say goodbye in a calm and familiar setting.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Mays was incredibly kind and sensitive throughout the entire experience. As heartbreaking as the process was, Dr. Mays made it so our cat was comfortable throughout and we were able to grieve in the privacy of our home. I cannot recommend this service or Dr. Mays enough.

It was so important to me that we gave our Suki the kindest and most peaceful way to pass, and Dr Mays definitely helped us do that. I’m very glad to have been able to provide dignity and compassion for my angel doggy with in home euthanasia.

This was the very best way to have my dog euthanized. It could not have been any more peaceful or comfortable for her. Dr. Mays was very professional yet compassionate and things could not have gone more smoothly for such a sad but inevitable experience that we as pet owners must endure.

Dr. Mays somehow turned one of the toughest moments for a pet parent into a very comfortable, meaningful experience. I cannot recommend her more to someone having to make this decision for your fur baby.

Review by Dr. Susannah Mays

Dr. Mays is a wonderful doctor. She never made us feel rushed in the process of putting our beloved family dog down, and answered all of our questions so we truly understood the process and what to expect. Having her come to our home for the euthanasia was so much more peaceful than taking him to the vet, and we will always choose this option with her moving forward. Thank you Dr. Mays for everything you do, you made this decision much less stressful for us, my family truly appreciates it!

Dr. Mays was wonderful. She was sensitive and appreciated what we were going through. I even received a card from her later in the week. Although a difficult thing to decide codapet was easy to navigate. Ruth
