Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Over many years of providing veterinary patient care, we have witnessed that in-home euthanasia services are one the greatest gifts that animal owners can give to their pets and that veterinarians can provide to their patients. Helping animals pass in the comfort of their homes, surrounded by their loved ones, in a painless and low stress environment is one of the greatest services that we can provide.

What pet parents are saying
Without reservation, we can recommend Dr. Sanchez, DVM as a thoroughly qualified and sincerely, compassionate practitioner. She traveled over 70 miles to reach us, arrived on time, traversed the weather impacted access route in her vehicle, and performed the compassionate resolution that we intentioned. Bisbee, our Siberian husky, was freed from the misery of her final fall from good health, and we had the peace of mind that her best interests were always foremost as our sincere promise to her. We express our profound gratitude for Dr. Sanchez, and confidently recommend her services, especially in a time of great need .
Dr. Sanchez was extremely kind at this terribly difficult moment when my beloved cat was being euthanized. She was wonderful ever step of the way, including taking the body to be cremated and dropping off the cremains at my local vet.
We were grateful to have Ashleigh Sanchez come to our home to help our furry family member continue to his next journey. It was much better than to euthanize at a vets office. We did feel that Ashleigh was in a bit of a rush, maybe it was just us being sensitive. My biggest problem was with the cheap paw print, PawPals, https://hardypaw.com/products/pawpals-paw-print-keepsake-classic-mold-kit?variant=44717152010401 that was used to get a mold of his paws, It is terribly cheap and I am not sure if it will hold up over time. Our other problem was the Urn was very cheap looking as well and Ashleigh dropped it off at the wrong Vets office even though she did ask us where we wanted it to be left when ready. On top of that was a paper note attached to the Urn with our dogs date of death as 8/27/24, he passed away on 4/27/25. This was just a mistake I am sure but still a sloppy one that hurt me deeply when I received his ashes at the wrong location.
Dr. Sanchez was so compassionate at such a difficult time. She made sure our sweet baby girl had a calm and peaceful passing. Thank you Dr. Sanchez.
Dr. Sanchez and her assistant were wonderful. She was gentle with my dog, compassionate, understanding, moved at mine and my dogs pace. She was skilled, prepared and knowledgeable. I was a mess, she walked me through the process. I highly recommend Dr. Sanchez. I am very grateful she was available in my area. It was peaceful and I am content knowing my dogs last minutes were spent in her favorite place.
