One phone call to Loving Paws, was met with a kind and caring response from Craig who responded that he would be there to pick up our beloved 12 year old Bulldog. Craig picked up our boy the next morning and brought him to us to say our final goodbyes, also suggesting that our last boy be taken out to his vehicle, to say goodbye too. I was so touched by this calm and professional man who shows his caring heart along with his soft spoken wife. They are so caring and I'm so thankful they were there in our time of need.

I've used this company three times in the past 18 months for private pet cremations, each time…read morearranged through the in-home euthanasia service I trust and deeply appreciate. Until now, the convenience and care they offered made the difficult process a little easier, despite the cost. Unfortunately, my most recent experience with picking up my beloved 12 1/2-year-old dog, Koa, was very disappointing, and I will sadly be looking elsewhere in the future. When the driver arrived to transport her, he unrolled a transfer mat onto my clean bedding that was visibly soiled from the previous pickup. He quickly apologized and replaced it with a clean one from his vehicle, so I let that slide--mistakes happen. The bigger issue came at pickup. I was unexpectedly charged an additional $21 for the mahogany urn because, according to the receptionist, the company had recently changed (suppliers?) and now charges extra for that option. She showed this was noted on the form I signed at the time of service. While it may have been in the fine print, I was not verbally told about the change or the upcharge, when I paid him for everything else (at the time of service)--something that had never happened during my two previous experiences with the exact same urn selection. During that moment, I was crying, didn't have my glasses, and was in no state to scrutinize paperwork. I trusted the process would be the same as before. Had the driver simply explained that the included urn was now different and that mahogany carried an extra fee, I would have happily chosen the standard one (which I actually prefer and think is prettier). Instead, the new "mahogany" finish is noticeably different and no longer matches the three previous mahogany urns I have from this same company. I ended up paying the unexpected fee because I just wanted to bring my girl home and they are almost an hours drive from my house-I didn't want to come back. However, I am very disappointed in the result. The woman working the front desk that day was new, incredibly kind, and clearly wanted to help, but she wasn't able to waive or resolve the charge on the spot. I'm truly saddened that after 4 services (in total), this is how my relationship with this company ends--over a $21 surprise charge that could have been avoided with a 30-second conversation during an already devastating moment. The convenience was meaningful to me, but trust and clear communication matter more.

My recent experience with Dr. Valerie and her assistant was better than I could have hoped for. My previous experiences were with two different vets in Los Angeles, both in bright, uncomfortable clinic rooms with panicked cats. I vowed to find someone this time who could come to our home and assist our cat with making a seamless transition across the rainbow bridge. Dr. Valerie made that happen. She was flexible and genuinely empathetic. My cat was comfortable and she had a peaceful death. In-home euthanasia was the way to go, no regrets.

Actually, the porcupine may have enjoyed it... I'm not sure. In any case, we needed some serious quill removal. We took him in around 10pm on Saturday night and they were pretty slammed. From start to finish it took a good 3-4 hours to get him treated and released. This isn't ideal, but totally understandable given the business they're in and again, the ONLY emergency vet clinic in town. Whatchagunnado? Total cost was around $700 which seems obscene on the face of it, but my wife (in whose opinion I trust like the stone-etched tablets of Moses himself) considered it quite reasonable given their service, skill and professionalism. They gave our dumb beast total wrap-around care, medicating him for pain and removing 50+ quills. My wife is in the medical field and is a pretty harsh judge of vets. She loved the docs here and found them both highly skilled, knowledgeable and efficient. This reaffirmed my own lay impressions. Bottom line? They did a great job and the service is invaluable in emergency cases. Cost is high, but not outlandish for the service.
