Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I first taught high school when I graduated from undergraduate school, and quickly learned that being on stage every day in front of 120 teenagers was not my ideal scenario. After some soul searching, I realized being a Veterinarian was what I always wanted to do (my Mom later found 3 x 5 cards with medical records that I kept on all my stuffed animals as a child). With a 3 year old daughter in tow, I went back to Vet school and have never looked back. Of course, love for the animals is the primary focus, but I also love the connections that I have made with the animals' human families over the years. I have enjoyed all aspects of my working career- preventative medicine, surgery, dentistry, as well as euthanasia. But with the veterinary industry as busy as it is right now, the stress of in-clinic euthanasia for the pets as well as their families has become so overwhelming that I now want to focus on making our pets' final times as stress free as possible.

5.0 Feb 27 2025 by Rebecca M.After a wonderful and too short 16 years, our darling little dog Lola let us know it was time for her to go. We chose home euthanasia in order to give her as peaceful a passing as possible. Dr Carol showered us with compassion and kindness. She arrived promptly on schedule, was professional yet unhurried, and very attentive to our needs. It's been almost 3 weeks since Lola left us and I'm only just now able to write this review. The package we received in picking up her ashes exceeded our expectation in its attention to detail. Giving us that last paw print on a plaque, which we didn't think about in the moment of grief, was so perfect. The loss of Lola has been so painful. However, because Dr Carol thought of everything that we couldn't in that moment, we are comforted in knowing that Lola went surrounded in love and care. Dr Carol is amazing. She cares about your animals AND you.
