    I used Diana for my cat. Sparkle needed a haircut and it's so traumatic to her (and I) to take…read moreher out of the house. Someone recommended traveling tech to me and I called..I liked Diana immediately, I can be a bit neurotic with my animals and she was very understanding. She came out a day later on time and was great with the cat!!! Sparkle got an amazing haircut...(Diana is not a groomer and did better than the groomers i have hired) and I learned there isn't much if anything that Diana can not do. She is dependable, does a great job and is such a nice person. I highly recommend her for any pet necessity you may have!!!!

    We started working with Diana several months ago for dog walking. We have a dog that is…read moreunpredictable towards strangers, so finding a dog walker had been quite difficult. At first, Diana was amazing. She was patient and worked with me to build trust with our dog. Then, out of no where, she just stopped responding to my calls, texts and emails (she was supposed to walk our dog one day and just disappeared). My first instinct was that she was hurt or sick, so I spent several days trying to get in touch with her to make sure she was okay. It was only until I read the other reviews that I realized that this was a theme - Diana would simply just disappear. On top of this, I paid Diana for a number of walks in advance (which I admittedly found a bit odd). Since I wasn't able to contact her, I had to go to Venmo and issue a dispute. They eventually refunded me the money since it was clear she was being paid for services she did not provide. I'm honestly shocked that this woman is running a customer facing business. I feel duped, particularly since I was genuinely worried about her when she first stopped responding. We had great conversation and she was seemingly normal; however, given the fact that she disappears from clients obviously suggests otherwise.

He is flexible and provides a prompt response for requests for his services. Our dog was diagnosed with inoperable cancer. Rather than put her through the trauma of another trip to a veterinary hospital we chose Last Act of Love. Dr. Shields arrived on time and conducted the entire process in the peace of our home, with our dog rested in her Mommy's arms. Dr. Shields never rushed the process and his compassion for the entire was process was fabulous. We would recommend him, without any reservation, for this service to any pet owner who wants to have their pet in the peace and comfort of its home.

Last year, I had to make the heartbreaking decision to euthanize my dog due to a diagnosis of Idiopathic Aggression/Rage Syndrome, a decision that was mandated by a court order. Dr. Shields came to my home for the procedure, making a 45-minute drive to be there. What I want to highlight is his incredible patience and kindness - on three separate occasions, I wasn't able to go through with it, and he came back each time. Despite the challenges, he remained understanding and compassionate. I'm so grateful for his professionalism and the care he showed my pet and me in that moment. Thank you, Dr. Shields, for your kindness and for making a tough moment a little more bearable.

    As I stated in my Facebook review: We would like to express…read moreour thanks and gratitude to Tender Comforts In home Pet Euthanasia for helping us today as our beloved Hamish transitioned from our hands across the bridge to God's hands. Hamish is our beloved almost 16 year old dog who had been increasingly in pain and panting, showing signs of dementia, and losing the ability to get up off the floor without assistance. Making the decision to put him to sleep was so very difficult. We were so relieved to find a vet who could provide a relaxing outdoor setting without the stress of a traditional veterinary hospital. Tender Comforts In home Pet Euthanasia is set on a farm in the country, so, on a plush blanket laid on grass and clover, underneath an oak tree, with a picnic table and benches available, beloved Hamish was able to gently leave behind his pain and anxiety with the help of Dr. Craig Little and Nurse Cindy. They explained everything that was going to take place and chatted with us which helped us relax. And of course they handled Hamish gently and compassionately. I was able to sit on the grass right next to Hamish and pet him constantly throughout the procedure. They explained some things along the way which was helpful. I remember Dr. Little reaching across Hamish with his stethscope to listen to his heartbeat, and gently indicating to me that he was gone. We were not rushed away; I was able to continue petting and talking to Hamish as long as I wanted to. My husband and I, as well as Hamish, were treated with great respect. Before we left, there were hugs all around. I noticed that when we left, Cindy got on the ground with Hamish and continued to pet and care for him. So for Hamish, it was a day that began with a breakfast of brownies, ham and cereal, which was followed by a nice ride in the car to Readington, where he got out onto a grassy field with a cozy blanket waiting for him to rest upon, and friendly people waiting to help him. Yes we are sad, and yes, we miss him, but the quality of care we received from Tender Comforts In home Pet Euthanasia definitely has helped us get through it. I should also mention that Dr. Little's wife Susie was our first contact with Tender Comforts In home Pet Euthanasia. She set up our appointment, and facilitated changing the times when we requested it. She was very compassionate! I also need to mention that we were given a sympathy card with wild flower seeds and a pamphlet on coping on the loss of a companion animal. I would not hesitate to use this service again, and highly recommend them to anyone who needs it for their pet. This is a tremendous resource!

    Susie and Dr. Craig could not have been more caring when my dog Rio stayed with them for a week. Of…read morecourse they sent photos and texts and treated Rio like a prince. Because Rio is an older dog and not always a great eater, Dr. Craig kept Rio in his lap and hand fed him. Susie cut up his meat in tiny pieces and sprinkled treat tidbits on top to tempt my fussy eater. Rio was so in love with Dr. Craig that he followed him non-stop and slept with him. Susie and Dr. Craig go way beyond mere daycare and understand each dog as an individual. They cater to doggy preferences (and they love and board cats, too). If you're lucky enough to get a space at Tender Comforts, you'll find an amazing place for your dog to spend time while you're away.

    Dr. Howard was wonderful. She handled the euthanasia in a humane and professional manner. She…read moreexplained every step and was considerate of how difficult it was for us. She did not rush through and was gentle with our cat and with us. Paws at Peace offers some extras (a paw print and a bit of fur in a little jar) in addition to cremation options. I initially thought these things were silly but I am glad we got them. It was easy to make the arrangements. We called at 8 AM and got a same day appointment. We got a text of the expected time and an update when there was a very slight delay. We got a follow up text the next day, with an offer for grief support. This is a well run organization. They know what they are doing. Best of all, they did not cause any additional grief to what was already a very sad day.

    I am so impressed with and grateful for Paws at Peace. My first encounter was Dr. Fragola's article…read moreon their website, "How Do I Know When It's Time to Say Goodbye?"--which hit me straight to the core. At last, I felt seen. Dr. Fragola so thoroughly and empathetically captured the roller coaster I had been on for the past five weeks, and I finally felt certain that it was the right time to end my cat Claudette's suffering. After submitting an online inquiry at night, I received a phone call less than twenty minutes later. From that first conversation through the thoughtful "how are you doing" follow-ups, Paws at Peace's compassion, understanding, and professionalism were authentic and unmistakable. Dr. Jennifer Lander came to our home the next day and could not have been kinder. She was patient, gentle, and genuinely interested in learning about Claudette and her life with us--later reflecting those details in a heartfelt sympathy card. The process was unrushed and deeply respectful. I will always remember the salmon paste she brought as a final treat; Claudette went crazy for it, and it's a fond last memory with our precious girl. This was the hardest moment my husband and I have faced together so far, but Paws at Peace made an unfathomable experience as peaceful as it could possibly be. I am deeply thankful for their care and cannot recommend them highly enough.
