Questions
Most of the time, this is not a problem. We feel it is important that companions have an opportunity to be part of the final journey. If the other pet (typically dog(s)) is a bit bouncy and hyper, we usually suggest they wait in another room until after the euthanasia has occurred - do not take away from the sense of calm. Please talk to us if you have another pet(s).
Typically, after passing, there is anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes in the appointment to spend with your pet. For those who feel they will need more time, just speak to us and we can make a plan.
At the time of the service, we can accept debit, Visa, Mastercard, American Express on a payment terminal. For those wishing to pay prior to the appointment, we can accept credit card over the phone or EMT.
We truly feel privileged to provide the services we provide. We get to meet amazing pet parents who understand that a good death is as important as a good life.

We have supplies to make ink paw and/or nose prints during the visit, upon request. There is no additional charge for the ink prints our team makes during the service.
