We’re here to guide you through each step with compassion, clarity, and respect—so you can focus on being with your pet.
Every family and every pet is different. Because of that, our services are designed to be flexible and supportive of your individual needs.
We will walk you through each step ahead of your appointment so you know what to expect, including timing, aftercare options, and any applicable fees.
Our goal is to make this process as peaceful, clear, and stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet.

Not Sure If It’s Time?
It’s completely normal to feel unsure.
Many families struggle with this decision, and there is rarely a perfectly clear moment. If you’re feeling uncertain, you’re not alone.
In some cases, families schedule an appointment and realize they need more time once the veterinarian arrives—and that’s okay.
If euthanasia does not take place, the visit will be treated as a Quality of Life consultation.
Travel & Service Area
Because we serve families throughout a wide geographic area, travel fees are based on the location of your home.
You can review our service area map below to get a general sense of coverage. Our team will confirm your location and any applicable travel fees when your appointment is scheduled.
Appointments Outside Coverage Area
For locations outside of our standard service area, availability is more limited due to extended travel times and the need to accommodate other scheduled visits.
In these cases, a nonrefundable booking fee of $190–$200 is required to secure the appointment. This fee is applied toward the total cost of your visit.
If an appointment is canceled, all other fees will be refunded. The booking fee is not transferable to a future date or time.
Payment
Payment is due at the time of service. All applicable fees will be reviewed with you before your appointment is confirmed.
If anything changes during the visit, your veterinarian will discuss this with you before proceeding.
We accept:
- Cash
- Check
- Credit cards
- ScratchPay
For clients paying by credit card, payment is collected over the phone at the time of scheduling.
ScratchPay
ScratchPay is a payment option that allows you to divide the cost of care into smaller monthly payments rather than paying the full amount at once.
It is not a credit card, and checking your options does not impact your credit score. The application process is quick and completed online.
This option is available to help ease financial stress during an already difficult time.
