Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

When I was in high school, I was required to perform service hours. I started volunteering at a local stable and took care of all the horses, led trail rides, farm tours, etc. I decided I wanted to be able to give back to these animals that help us every day. I majored in Animal Sciences while in undergrad and then worked as a small animal surgery and anesthesia technician while awaiting my vet school acceptance. Originally, I went to veterinary school to specialize in equine sports medicine and radiology and I even completed an equine internship post-graduation. However, I quickly learned I have a special place in my heart for hospice care. Six months before starting vet school, I had to put down my beloved family rescue dog that I had for 10 years. She was terrified of everyone besides my mom and I, and she hated being in a vet office. Having to put her to sleep in a strange room surrounded by strange people was horrible. I would like to offer my services in order to help your furry friend cross the rainbow bridge in their own safe space, surrounded by the people they love.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Nicolette is heaven sent. She made this very heartbreaking experience a peaceful one and made the grieving process gentler with her kindness and overwhelming care and love for what she does. I don’t think I could have coped with this great loss if anyone else had done it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the love and care you showed Bran and our family.

Dr. Michelli did an exceptional job taking easing our furry friends passage across the “rainbow” bridge. She made sure we knew how every step worked and made it as painless as possible. In a difficult time she provided a service that exceeded our expectations.

Review by Dr. Nicolette Michelli

We are forever grateful to Dr. Nicolette Michelli for the compassion and care she showed our family. From the moment she arrived, she treated our Elsa with kindness, patience, and charity. She gently explained each step of the process, giving us the space and time to be present with our girl in her final moments without ever feeling rushed. Dr. Michelli took the time to personally send us a lovely handwritten card and followed up to ensure that Elsa’s ashes were returned to us. We will always remember Dr. Michelli's kindness.

Review by Dr. Nicolette Michelli

Saying goodbye to my companion and best friend, Coco, was the hardest thing I have done. Dr. Nicolette Michelli made the experience pleasant, despite the situation. She was very patient with us and you could tell she sincerely cared. She even went above and beyond to make sure I had received Coco's ashes. I have three more fur babies and as long as Dr. Nicolette Michelli is available, I know the experience will be pleasant when that time comes again.
