Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I've always surrounded myself with animals (perk of being a country kid with very understanding parents), and decided to be a veterinarian before I even started kindergarten. After being in clinical practice for 14.5 years, I've developed a passion for end-of-life care. I consider it a deep privilege to help pets and clients through the most difficult stage of the human- animal bond.

Dr. Anna was caring, knowledgeable, and was able to very comfortably lead us through this painful process. We were very thankful to have us there with us.

Review by Dr. Anna L. Peterson, DVM

Our beloved dog, Rainy, had a bad fall and hurt himself so badly that he couldn't stand. We were so lucky to have Dr. Anna Peterson nearby. She was able to come to our home that day to give Rainy a peaceful passing. Dr. Peterson was more than kind and caring, she was so gentle with Rainy, and later distracted and played with our puppy so that we could say our last goodbyes to Rainy. I can't say enough about how much we appreciated her kindness and how much it meant to us. It is hard to lose a friend, even if the friend isn't human, and it meant so much to have Dr. Peterson come quickly so that poor Rainy didn't have to suffer, and could pass in his home surrounded by familiar things and the people he loved.

Dr. Peterson was amazing! She was professional, kind, compassionate, and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye to our buddy Shelly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience in such a difficult situation.

We are so grateful for Dr. Peterson's expertise and her kind heart! After being told by another vet we needed to put down our kitty, we arranged for Dr. Peterson to come to our home. I don't expect this to be the case that often with these types of things, but lucky for us Dr Peterson has had many years of experience as a GP and seen it all. She examined our kitty Ginger, and to our surprise and relief, Dr Peterson informed us that though Ginger is indeed sick and we don't know when she's going to go, she's not suffering, or in pain or "starving to death" as the other vet put it. We adjusted Ginger's dosage for her meds and she responded well and has been living her best Kitty life for the past two weeks and has even had some improvement. She wouldn't be here right now if it wasn't for Dr. Peterson. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Review by Dr. Anna L. Peterson, DVM

Dr. Peterson was the perfect person to help euthanize our beloved Daisy. The process of applying for a home appointment online was seamless. I was instantly contacted through e-mail and able to ask questions about the stages we were going through as Daisy was failing. Gave all of us comfort and peace of mind while our hearts were breaking. I ultimately requested that perhaps she could come even sooner than our designated appointment, and she was able to accommodate us. She was kind, deeply compassionate and committed to helping us and Daisy through the process. She explained in detail the steps that would be taken to release Daisy from her struggles. She helped us provide the best possible passing for our sweet girl. She let us take all the time we needed to say our goodbyes. There was no pressure to buy anything we didn’t want, but choices were offered. Pricing is comparable to what we paid a decade ago and Dr. Peterson drove quite a ways. Cannot thank her enough! I would recommend no other.
