How We Work

After discussing your needs, a doctor will arrive at your home at an agreed upon time.
When you are ready, a small amount of a sedative will be administered to your pet in order to eliminate anxiety and need for restraint. This is an excellent time to say your last goodbyes as your pet will gently fall asleep over a period of about 2 to 10 minutes.
When you are ready, a small amount of hair will be shaved from the leg, and the euthanasia solution will be given. In a matter of minutes, the doctor will listen to the heart to ensure that your pet has gently passed on.
When you are ready, your pet will be placed on a blanket in order to care for the body, unless you elect to care for your pet afterward.
If you have selected individual cremation, your pets’ ashes will be ready in approximately 7-10 days and can be shipped to you via USPS or hand delivered. Alternatively, we may be able to deliver to your regular veterinary office if they are a clinic serviced by our crematorium.
