At Home
Pet Euthanasia
We understand how difficult the end of life process can be for you, your family and your pet. We do everything we can to ensure that the process creates as little stress as possible on you and allows your pet to remain in the comfort of their home.
NOTICE: Appointments are limited at this time
We will take the following precautions:
We cannot provide service if anyone in the home has a cough or has traveled within the previous 10 days.
The service has to be provided outdoors. We won’t enter your home, but will instead enter the outdoor space through the gate,etc.
You will stay with your pet until they’re sleeping. We will then ask for a safety zone of at least 6 feet while we give the final medicine. Afterwards we will give you time with your pet for a final goodbye before we transport them.
Phone Consultation
Dr. Veena Alexis, DVM
Dr. Veena Alexis earned her bachelor’s degree in Microbiology from Coloardo State University in 1996. She continued on to earn her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from the College of Veterinary Medicine at CSU in 2001. She has practiced in the Phoenix area since 2002.
Through the years, Dr. Veena like many veterinarians, has had numerous requests from families for in home euthanasia. Oftentimes, there would be a scheduling conflict leaving her unable to leave the clinic due to the appointment schedule. In those instances where she was able to visit the home, she witnessed the amazing difference between putting pets to sleep at home as opposed to putting them to sleep in the clinic setting. There is a certain calm that surrounds the families and the pets, knowing that they are not frightened or anxious because they are at home. Although it is a difficult calling, it is also a privilege to be able to end the pain and suffering that pets endure at the end of life.
Dr. Debra Freiberg, DVM
Dr. Debra Freiberg earned her bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from the Ohio State University. She successfully started and owned practices in Montana and Washington state prior to moving to Arizona in 2007. She has served the greater Phoenix area since 2011.
Every practice that Dr. Debra has owned or been employed by has been either wholly or partly mobile and included in home euthanasia for those clients who requested it. The difference between in clinic and in home euthanasia is profound for the family and their pet. It is a deeply personal time not meant to be experienced in a public setting. The comfort of home surrounded by family creates a peaceful environment. As a veterinarian it is part of the veterinary oath to humanely end suffering but it is a privilege to help owners through this difficult time of saying, “good bye” to their beloved companion.
Dr. Rachel Bart, DVM
Dr Rachel Bart graduated from the University of British Columbia with a BSc in chemistry in 1991 . She then completed her veterinary degree from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1998.
She spent her first 10 years of practice in emergency and critical care and has been in regular practice since 2008. Helping owners navigate being able to say goodbye to a beloved pet in a calm and comfortable setting has become very important to Dr.Bart. It is an extremely difficult time for owners and being able to stay at home is a gift that can be very helpful for both the owner and the pets .
When Is It Time?
When we accept a pet into our lives, we know that one day we will have to decide when the time is right to relieve them from pain or illness. If your pet has been diagnosed with an incurable illness that takes away the quality of life, or if your pet’s day is full of senior moments where they are confused or sad, then it may be time to end their suffering with in home euthanasia. You may see that your pet has more bad days than good days, or you may be seeing the following changes:.
Your Pet has lost interest in food
Your Pet is no longer able to go to the bathroom without accidents or falling down
Your Pet is no longer greeting you when you come home
Your Pet is no longer patrolling the yard or protecting their territory the way they once did
Your Cat has stopped grooming themselves
Your Dog no longer wags it’s tail
