Verified Veterinarian
I became a veterinarian because I believe it is our responsibility as humans to care for animals who don't have a voice or much of a choice in their lives. Whether it's a wild animal, a farm animal, or a pet, we humans impact their environment and what happens to them. My mission is to make every animal I care for feel loved and safe in any situation. Throughout my career, I have had to euthanize many animals, which is never an easy thing to do. During this difficult task, I have developed a way to focus all my love and attention on the life of the animal, not the euthanasia. So that in this challenging situation, the animal feels safe and loved during this peaceful passing, and the owners feel at peace with the decision that has been made.

They are not enough words to express how thankful I am for Dr.Cara and her in home services. She was so compassionate and professional during such a heard time for us. Our sweet boy was 15+ years old and I'm thankful he was able to be in the comfort of his own home. I feel for anyone having to make the decision but I couldn't recommend Dr.Cara Mitchell enough.
At a time when it felt like everything was going badly, Dr Cara Mitchell came to the house and made everything just a little bit easier with her kindness ad generosity. It is easy to see she really cares and sees her job as a sacred service to animals and those who love them.
I was lucky enough to find DR. Cara Mitchell to assist with the passing of my sweet beautiful Daisy (my almost 12 year old Englishbulldog). Daisy got to pass away so peaceful in her bed at her home with the people who loved her. DR. Mitchell went beyond what I expected to make this a easy process for all of us. She is absolutely wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone going through this painful decision. I thank God for such a caring wonderful person. RIP Daisy 🩷
Dr. Cara was incredibly compassionate, professional, and caring! She cried with us, prayed with us and thoroughly explained everything to us! What a fabulous job she did at a time when we really needed her.
Dr. Cara was very compassionate & professional. I had never experienced having a pet euthanized . After Dr. Cara talked to us & explained the procedure, I knew I had made the right decision. It was actually a relief when my Bama went to sleep & was no longer in pain or suffering . Thank you for being there for us in a very difficult time .
Let’s be honest- no one wants to make an appointment for this kind of service- however, it’s a part of life for pet owners. Dr. Cara was wonderful and supportive throughout the entire process. From communicating beforehand to learn more about my situation to the visit and aftercare, each step of the way she was caring. I’m sorry you’ll need this service, but if you do, I’d recommend Dr. Cara.
