Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Having provided end of life care to my own pets both in a hospital setting and at home with their family, I've experienced first hand the difference an at-home euthanasia makes to everyone involved. I am committed to helping pets and their families have as stress-free, dignified, and peaceful passing as possible.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Neri was so kind, compassionate, and respectful to our family during such a difficult time. It’s a heartbreaking decision to make but when you have a vet like Dr. Neri helping you, it certainly brought us some peace and comfort. We could not have asked for a more calm and loving farewell to our beloved kitty.

I had to make the very difficult decision to put my sweet pup dog Ava to rest. She was diagnosed with a mammary tumor back in July 2024. I searched around for a local in home euthanasia and scheduled with Dr. Kelly Neri. I then canceled early that morning hoping I could have one last weekend. Unfortunately she wasn't able to keep any food or water down and I contacted Dr. Kelly late Friday near midnight. I'll forever be grateful to you for going out of your way late on a cold night to help Ava finally be at piece without suffering. Thank you again for you and your son being so kind and compassionate during one of my hardest days having to say goodbye.

Dr. Neri was wonderful. My Hugo was the center of my life for so long, and deciding to let him go was very hard. But Dr. Neri was comforting and Hugo's passing was peaceful. Thank you Dr. Neri.

Dr. Neri was absolutely wonderful! From the moment she entered our home, we felt completely at ease. She was calm, quiet and very respectful of the situation. She answered our questions and concerns with compassion and kindness. It was a very emotional experience for us and she was very supportive. Making the decision concerning our sweet Gracie girl was very difficult, but I am confident it was the best decision. We appreciate Dr. Neri and would definitely recommend her!

Our connection with Dr Neir was one of compassion and empty. Our initial contact was to address any questions we had as a family . When arriving to the house her first thoughts were for Naboo to make sure we kept her as come, relaxed reducing any anxiety knowing that there would be someone new in the house. Dr Neir first engaged with Naboo and said we could take a much time as needed for us and Naboo. This was very comforting for our family and wants to thank Dr Neri for keep such good care of Naboo in this time. Thank you for being kind and thinking of our family with the steps you took to make this a peaceful transfer. The Pecks

Thank you for driving out to us so our sweet Iris could be at home with us when she passed. She hated going to the vet so being at home allowed her to be comfortable and where she belonged.
