We arrive and sit with you.
We usually come within one or two days, and often the same day. Dr. Quenby and Natalie arrive together and begin by listening. Your pet can be on their bed, the couch, or outside under a favorite tree.
A gentle goodbye, at home
When love means letting go.
When the bad days start to outnumber the good, or when your pet has stopped doing the things that made them themselves, you do not have to carry the question alone. We can come to you, sit with you, and give your pet a peaceful goodbye in a familiar place.
A quality-of-life visit can come first
You do not have to decide during the visit.
For $140, a quality-of-life visit is an exam and a conversation. We can talk honestly about comfort, changes you are seeing, and what care could look like next. There is no decision expected.
Weekday evenings, along with the first and third Saturday mornings, can help your family find a time that fits.
Talk with usWhat happens
Nothing is rushed.
Your pet drifts into sleep.
First comes a sedative injection. Over 5 to 10 minutes, your pet drifts into a deep sleep while you hold them. Children and other pets are welcome to be there if that feels right for your family.
You choose the moment.
When you are ready, the final injection is quiet and takes a minute or two. Dr. Quenby listens and tells you when their heart has stopped.
Aftercare
We will take the next step with care.
You may choose home burial where your township allows it, or we can arrange cremation. We carry your pet to the van on a soft stretcher, wrapped in a blanket. Private cremation ashes return in 7 to 14 days in a cedar box, with a clay paw print.
Gail settles payment by phone beforehand, so no one has to think about it on the day. She calls each family a week later, just to check in.
