In April I had to put to sleep my lovely old kitty who had hyperthyroidism and kidney disease. Unfortunately it was about 9 P.M. when I returned home from school to find she had crashed and the other option besides at home euthanasia would have been to rush kitty to the vet E.R. for euthanasia with two small children in tow. I tearfully called Compassionate Care and they sent out a very nice vet to put her to sleep. They gave me an accurate quote and accurate arrival ETA on the phone. The vet who came out was extraordinarily professional and compassionate. She explained at every step of the way what she was doing. She expressed care and concern for my family and for my kitty. And she allowed this very, very sad time to at least be peaceful and comfortable for my kitty and for my family. She even gave us a clipping of our kittys fur. She handled the process of transporting kitty to the crematorium, taking her out in a little lovely basket which was such a thoughtful, humane touch. The vet even left a packet with information on the crematorium where my kitty was being brought, my receipt, and pet loss resources in the community. It was not much more expensive that what I was quoted by the emergency vet for an emergency euthanasia at the animal hospital. What difference in price there was, was more than worth it. These people are doing wonderful work and I thank them from the bottom of my heart.

I could not recommend this company more. They were able to come out on short notice when we decided it was time to put our fatally sick cat down, which is not an easy decision. The timeliness really meant a lot as when you know its time, its time. Our vet was so compassionate. She accommodated our wishes to have the procedure done in our dark room with our kitty snuggled comfortably on me. The sedatives they give before helps you feel at ease about the likelihood your pet feels any pain upon passing. Our vet asked questions every step of the way to be sure we were comfortable with the timing of the procedure and when we were ready to pass him off. She took him for cremation wrapped in a blanket and placed him in a cat bed in the back of her car. She was so mindful of our needs and even offered a hug before leaving. <3

We had to make a very hard decision, which we all dont want to do, but have no choice, to put our dearly loved kitty, Scamper to sleep last Sunday. I have heard so many good things about Compassionate Care in the newspaper last year and recommendation from my Vet to use this service and we did not regret this at all. Our Scamper had a very peaceful going over the rainbow bridge and we want to thank you for this from the bottom of our hearts. You made this a good experience without stress. He was a good boy and made it to 19 years young. What an age. We adopted him while stationed in Idaho from Pet Smart at the age of 7 months. What a handsome boy he was. We loved you so much and miss you dearly, its not the same any more in the house without you, your brother and sister are missing you. Love always!

My dog Queenie was a large breed mix. She re gently became paralyzed loosing complete use of her hind legs. She was 11 yrs old. I could not bear to let her go on in suffering. I knew I needed to make the call, I needed a Doc. to come as soon as possible.They came in less than 60 min. I made sure my dog was comfortable ,the operator on the phone told me what to expect. I cant say enough about Dr. Meg she was so kind professional even double checking vitals. Im so sad, but I would hate to be in a clinic to do this. This was personal & kind. I cried and the doctor gave me a hug. I hope you consider calling them if you have determined to give your pet some peace and freedom from pain. If you love your pet and want kind care and compassion dont hesitate to call.

I just put my cat and best friend to sleep...Tenacious !I had him for 15 years and it was the best years ever. But as in all things there is one final road you must take with your friend and that is the end of life. Who wants to do this in a cold vet room spilling your emotions out with no privacy ? I had to this one other time and having to wait in the lobby knowing what I was about to do and then finally doing it only to turn around and walk out with tears streaming down your face isnt very comfortable. Enter Compassionate care and this can now be done at home. Your friend is comfortable,your less stressed, and they really do pull out all the stops to make this end experience better. Thank you!

Yesterday was a sad day. Our cat Wilbur left us after 14 years being a part of this family with his love, personality and silliness. However as emotional this all is, the patience, care and support of Doctor Jennifer from Compassionate Care Home Pet Euthanasia Service and their well thought through process, made this a very nice and dignified experience for my wife my two kids and I at our own home. Both their process and the care of Doctor Jennifer created the best circumstance to say goodbye and let Wilbur start his next adventure. Yes there is an emptiness in our home and our hearts, but we have beautiful memories including the last moments – thanks!!!

Compassionate Care lives up to their name. Arrived within hours, explained everything. Never felt rushed. Dr Willey is truely an angel who led us through an excruciating experience with professionalism, patience compassion, and grace. Our dieing, deceased cat was treated with immense respect. Euthanized another animal several years ago at a vet office, never again. My sick animal passed peacefully at home without fear and my healthy animals were surpisingly accepting of her. Highly recommend and will use again without hesitation if/when that difficult choice presents again.

I had to say goodbye to my fuzzy buddy last week. I cannot recommend Compassionate Care enough - while I hope that my friends pets wont need their services for a long time, I will absolutely recommend them when the time comes. Dr. Jessika treated me, my husband, my home, and, of course, my kitty, with such gentleness and respect. Im glad that my fuzzy buddy was able to go with painless dignity. She was reassuring of my decision, patient, and has a lovely, empathetic demeanor. Thank you for your time, kindness, and services. Truly, it made all the difference

We had our sierra put down after having her in our lives for 14yrs. The best thing we every did was to have it done at home she was so peaceful and happy on her own blanket not feeling stressed( which is how she felt every time we took her to a vet)we will never go any other way than with compassionate care at home euthanasia. They are such warm and caring vets that we just wanted to say > Thank you with all our hearts for making our baby girls journey to heaven so peaceful. Sincerely ,The Lockabys

I cannot say enough about my exceptional experience with Comapssionate Care. I called in the middle of the night having made the heartwrenching decision to say good bye to my beloved dog. Early the next morning Dr. Meg McNabb arrived. Dr. McNabb had such a gentle manner, respectful and skilled. I am forever appreciative that at no point did my dog appear to be in any discomfort and for her genuine, kind support on that very sad day. This is an exceptional service and highly recommended.
