End of Life Care

Planning for comfort and a peaceful goodbye when the time comes

It’s never an easy decision to make when our pets’ time to leave us approaches. If you’re unsure as to whether it’s the right time or whether there are more options to keep your pet comfortable, we can set up a consultation to evaluate further to determine the best plan for your pet.

Consult

This visit will include a thorough history, including reviewing your pet’s previous medical records, current concerns, and a physical exam. From there, goals of additional therapy will be determined – options to optimize your pet’s quality of life and comfort will be reviewed and discussed. Each pet is an individual so these recommendations will vary based on your pet’s personality, lifestyle, and health conditions, while keeping in mind the feasibility of implementing treatment plan options.

In Home Euthanasia

We do offer in home euthanasia appointments. We try to prioritize these patients as we understand that sometimes their condition can change quickly. Please reach out via text, email, or by completing the new patient form to set up an appointment. Once your appointment is scheduled, we will send over an email with additional information about the visit and aftercare options.
