Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
From a young age, I have felt a deep connection to animals and a strong desire to support them through every stage of their lives. My decision to provide in-home humane euthanasia services stems from this passion, as well as my commitment to ensuring pets experience a peaceful passing in the comfort of their own home, surrounded by their loved ones. This approach honors the bond we share with our pets and offers families a compassionate and serene way to say goodbye.

What pet parents are saying
Having Dr Hundley come to my home was such a relief for me and Sophie. I was unable to get Sophie into a cat carrier and coming to the house worked well. Dr Hundley was so compassionate and caring of my feelings and Sophie’s feelings. She was so patient and supportive for all of us and let my daughter and I have our time with Sophie. Thank you very much for your care. Teri Block
Dr. Hundley was very compassionate and supportive. We were glad that Sully was able to be at home in a comfortable and familiar space surrounded by those who loved him. We were very emotional but we knew it was the right thing to do. Dr.Hundley talked to us and Sully as he was crossing the rainbow bridge. She explained everything ahead of time and gave us time to make our own decision. She thought to ask if he had a favorite toy that he could take with him (which happened to be a tissue box - he is a boxer) and we sent him with his new blanket. She discussed private and group cremation, getting a paw print, clay print, or a Styrofoam print, and she thought to clip some of his soft fur from different spots with his different colors. I would highly recommend this service and Dr. Hundley for anyone who has to face this difficult decision.
We had the unfortunate event of a cat with a deteriorating health condition. We made the extremely difficult decision to have an at home euthanasia, where she would be warm, comfortable, and surrounded by the ones she loved. Danielle was so sweet, loving, and understanding for the whole process. Danielle allowed us to say goodbye and made sure she was super comfortable. Our little baby passed away with no complications. It hurts, but we know we made the right decision and are grateful Danielle gave us this.
Dr. Danielle Hundley helped us say goodbye to our beloved cat at home, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. She was incredibly compassionate, gentle, and respectful throughout the entire process. Her calm presence made a heartbreaking day a little more bearable. We are so grateful for her care and kindness.
Dr. Hundley handled the process with care and was very accommodating. It was as though we had known her for a long time. She cares deeply for animals, and as a pet owner herself, she understands what you are going through. We highly recommend Dr. Hundley.
I chose in-home pet euthanasia for my beloved dog Cafe. He was the best dog and I wanted his final journey to be at home where he knew and felt loved, safe, and comfortable. Dr Danielle Hundley cared for him when he became ill and she is the most kind, caring and compassionate veterinarian I've ever had the pleasure of having care for my dog. I was so fortunate and relieved to know she would come to my home when I realized it was Cafe's time to go. It was a devastating time for me, but she made it the best experience possible and cared for Cafe as if he was her own pet. I can't express how much this meant to me and how grateful I am, knowing Cafe had the very best care at the end of his life. Thank you so much.
