Dr. Heather White
Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
When I was 5 years old, I believed that I came up with the wonderful new idea of becoming a doctor for animals. My father gently explained that the concept had already been invented, but I could be the best vet there ever was! My role model growing up was James Herriot. I read every book he wrote at least three times, and by the time I got to high school, I was ready to help every animal in the world. Where other kids were getting the titles of Most Likely to Succeed, or Most Likely to Get Rich, I was voted as Most Likely to Become a Veterinarian. In my senior year of high school, I was selected into Mississippi State University's Early Entry Program which allowed me to complete by basic prerequisite courses and enter directly into Vet School. I graduated in 1997 and have been helping pets and their families ever since.

What pet parents are saying
Dr Heather White is simply amazing, her care and compassion are amazing. She has a heart that speaks for itself in her work. We will always be grateful for her
Dr. Heather White helped ease our sweet girl, Cake to a peaceful passing. When our baby started to rapidly decline before our scheduled appointment time, Dr. White dropped everything to come to us sooner. She is such a compassionate person and I am beyond thankful for her service.
Compassionate, caring and best of all knows when to talk and when not to . I was very stressed and anxious but she made me comfortable. Can’t say enough good things.
Heather was so understanding and prepared for our loss. She truly made the experience as comfortable as it could have possibly been. I really appreciate that we had her care in such a hard time
Dr. White was so compassionate and empathetic to our family. Our dog was always nervous around strangers, so we were so worried his final moments would be ful of stress and anxiety. She took the time to talk to us about what she needed to do. And she was so gentle, professional and careful, I don't even think Scooby knew she was there. He went to sleep calm and loved. Dr. White listened to some of our stories, and then gently got him loaded and took care of organizing his cremation. We are forever grateful for this service which allowed us all to say goodnbye in our own backyard. It was truly such a blessing and Dr. White was absolutely wonderful.
She was very nice and caring. My dog Coco went peacefully. It takes a special person who provides this service every day. Thanks again Dr. White.
