In Home Pet Euthanasia and Palliative Care for Dogs & Cats
"We do everything to give our beloved pets the best possible life. That should also mean the best possible goodbye."
Dr. Courtney Prue, Founder
End-of-Life Service
We offer palliative care for pets in the comfort of home and compassionate support for loving families. We also provide a gentle and peaceful home euthanasia for pets (including dogs, cats, birds and exotic pets) when it’s time to say goodbye.
Navigating the final stages of your pet’s life can be incredibly difficult and confusing. We are here to support you every step of the way, whether it involves end-of-life care, making the difficult decision of pet euthanasia, or saying goodbye to your cat or dog.
We offer complete in-home palliative care focused on maintaining comfort and quality of life, from first diagnosis or the earliest signs of decline.
