compassion at home
“To provide compassionate and humane euthanasia for companion pets of clients who would like to avail of this service within the comfort of their own home”. We provide services to those residing in the St. John’s area of Newfoundland and Labrador.
If you think that the time has come to say good-bye to your faithful, “furry” friend, the option of how to proceed may feel daunting. The thought of bringing your beloved family member to a veterinary hospital for his/her last moments may be causing undue stress. Typically, the clinic environment can be noisy, busy and crowded. You also know that this setting can be quite stressful for your companion.
Compassion at Home provides an alternative to the hospital setting for euthanasia. We feel that saying good-bye to your companion should be a peaceful and comfortable experience for all those involved and that this can best be accomplished in the familiar and calm surroundings of your home.
Please browse through this website to learn more about our services or feel free to call us for additional information.
