What to Expect
We will walk you through every step. A team member will gently explain what will happen and when. Nothing will be rushed.
The process is peaceful. Most pets are first given a sedative to help them relax, followed by the euthanasia injection once they’re asleep.
You can stay for as long as you need. We offer time before and after for private moments with your pet. You may choose to stay for all or part of the process if you choose.
Comforting Your Pet
Bring a favorite item. A special blanket or toy can help your pet feel secure.
Offer treats (if allowed). We often encourage you to spoil your pet with favorite foods before sedation begins.
Planning Aftercare
Aftercare options: We offer cremation services, burial guidance, and keepsakes like paw prints or fur clippings.
Decide ahead if possible. Making these decisions in advance can reduce stress during the visit.
After the Visit
Lean on your support system. Grief can come in waves. Reach out to loved ones or pet loss support groups.
Give yourself grace. This is a major loss. Take time to rest, reflect, and heal in your own way.
Honor their memory. Many families create photo albums, plant trees, or hold a small ceremony in their pet’s honor.
