Dr. Duvall was so kind and caring during such a difficult time, we really appreciated it. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone one of our family and friends.

As hard as something like this is to go through, it is at least reassuring that you have a partner who understands the pain and loss that is associated with saying goodbye to one of your closest friends.

Dr. Lowman was communicative and extremely supportive during this difficult time with our dog, Lincoln. She explained the whole process and answered any questions we had. She also showed her kindness by following up and asking if we needed anything.

It has taken me a few weeks to get my thoughts together enough to even discuss this. Pip was my best friend just a few months shy of 20 years. It was very important to me that his last days and moments were as comfortable as possible. Dr. Rexing was the absolute best I could have asked for. Seeing how calm and relaxed he was during the procedure meant everything to me. It was the first time I'd heard him purr in over a month. And I was able to hold him the entire time. It was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make, but I don't regret anything at all. I know I did what was best for my buddy and I'm incredibly grateful Dr. Rexing was able to be there for the both of us. Thank you so much.

We made the difficult choice to say goodbye to our 15-year-old cat Leo who had developed an aggressive cancer, and I'm so glad we went with Coda and Dr. Erin. I began looking into at-home pet euthanasia options when Leo's health took a turn. Traveling to the vet was always a stressful experience for him, and that's not how I wanted his last moments to feel. Dr. Erin was unbelievably kind and compassionate, both toward Leo and us. She walked us through the process of sedation and then the final injection, helped us pick a comfortable location, gave Leo some final treats, and then began the process. It was very quick - only a few minutes - but it was peaceful, exactly the experience we wanted for our little guy. After Leo passed, Dr. Erin gave us some time alone to say goodbye. She then wrapped him in a blanket within a basket and carried him out, looking like he was taking a nice nap. I have absolutely no regrets and it made a challenging moment so much easier - I highly recommend this option and specifically Dr. Erin.

Dr Crawford made one of the worst decisions we’ve had to make peaceful. He was extremely attentive and kind through the entire process. We are heartbroken but are thankful for his care.
