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.

Dr Mays was extraordinarily kind and patient on one of the hardest days for our family. She explained the process, gave us all the time we needed, and was sweet enough to listen as we recounted stories of our beloved dog.

Review by Dr. Susannah Mays

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.
