Dr Dale Krier was extremely accommodating, compassionate and respectful during this stressful time…read more She gave my 15.5 year old best friend the dignity that she deserved on her final day. Her wisdom and forethought went above and beyond my expectations, and believe me, I had rehearsed this terrible day many times in my head. My call was promptly returned, a convenient time scheduled, and the process discussed. During this time of social distancing, some special accommodations needed to be made, but they in no way interfered with the love my dog received that day. Dr Dale played music made for dogs ears only and was extremely comforting to me as well. She made a clay print of my dogs paw, which I will cherish forever. The support Dr Dale gave that day extends far beyond as she checked in on me and provided access to support groups. When I picked up my dogs remains, they where surrounded by meditation gardens and considering the circumstances (pandemic restrictions) I couldn't have asked for anything more comforting and reassuring that my dog was truly loved and that I had made the right decision. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Kathy Bremer at XTerra Dalmatians

Making the decison to say goodby to Origami was one of the most painful and confusing times in my life. Alexis gave me so much of her time and showed so much compassion and kindness at a time when breathing felt hard. If you are struggling to help your pet transition in a pain free way and would like to do it in your home with the most gentle and kind person, please choose Alexis. I will miss my sweet sweet Angel for the rest of my life but I feel grateful knowing she wasnt afraid and felt safe and loved in her last moments. Thank you Alexis

Dr. Alexis is not only a true professional but one of the most caring and compassionate doctors…read morethat I have ever met. This was an extremely difficult decision to make for our baby, Bosco, who was 13 when we had to say goodbye. We had been in communication more than once with Dr. Alexis before we had made the final decision. She was extremely patient and understanding with us as well as guided us through the process and explained everything thoroughly . It felt sad as anything to say goodbye but she made it a peaceful process while celebrating his life. Cannot thank Dr. Alexis enough and if anyone ever needs end of life care, I would highly recommend her.

I wanted to take a moment to write a review, because we are so very grateful for the incredible…read morecare we and our sweet boy received from Dr. Matheson today. Saying goodbye to a beloved family member is never easy, but Peaceful Transitions made it as positive an experience as it could be. Our sweet senior dog had been dealing with some health problems, but when we woke up this morning he was unable to walk and was showing signs of neurological issues. When he didn't improve throughout the morning we were about to take him to the emergency vet as his usual vet is closed on Sunday, but then I saw a listing for Peaceful Transitions and we decided to give them a call. They were so incredibly kind on the phone and even though it was a Sunday and they had a full schedule today, they were able to fit us in only a few hours later. They explained the entire process to us over the phone and answered all of our questions, helped us with planning arrangements for after he passed and we were able to pay our invoice easily online before our appointment . Our little guy always got very nervous at the vet, so having someone come out to the house where he could be comfortable and peaceful in his own environment was a blessing. Dr. Matheson was so kind and extremely patient, he examined our little guy, went over our options with us and reviewed the entire process once we were sure we wanted to move forward. They encouraged us to have a special treat for him and a favorite toy, to help distract him while the doctor got him ready. He never could eat bacon normally as it upset his tummy, but he loved it and was so happy to munch on pieces of it while the doctor got prepped for the procedure. We were able to say goodbye to him as he rested peacefully in his own bed surrounded by his favorite toys and blankets and the people who loved him. After the procedure was completed Dr. Matheson stepped out to allow us some time alone to say goodbye, and then made us a nose and paw print and framed them for us. He transferred him into a basket lined with blankets and let us carry him out to the car, to be with him for his final journey. He was so kind and supportive every step of the way, and we are forever grateful to have had this experience. Our hearts are broken over losing our baby, but this is the only way I would ever want to do this again in the future. No rushing to the vet, no fear for our dog in a strange environment, just love and respectful care as we said goodbye. We were also concerned that the price for in-home euthanasia would be too expensive for us, but it actually was in line with what our vet would have charged, and cheaper than the emergency vet. Thank you again to Dr. Matheson and Peaceful Transitions for making what is a stressful and difficult experience as positive as it could be, and for taking such wonderful care of our little guy and us.

I'm not sure whether I was speaking with the doctor or a staff member, but either way, there is no excuse for speaking to someone in that manner.

I had read about Royal Farewell and had them saved because I knew someday, THIS day would come. We texted Dr Fasano 1st thing in this morning. He responded quickly via text, then a call a little while later. We explained that we came to the decision to put our almost 20 year old best Buddy to peace. We couldn't wait all day for the inevitable, it was tearing our hearts apart. He was able to rearrange a few things and got to us sooner than later. He was so professional and caring from the moment he walked in our door. We were able to hold our Buddy while Dr Fasano respectively did what needed to be done. He listened to our stories, as we cried through our last moments....and then that was it. Buddy got his wings. I cannot recommend Royal Farewell enough. We are so glad we didn't have to bring Buddy to a cold, scarey, sterile vet room. He got to cross the bridge, in my arms, in his house, with Dr Fasano caring and consoling us the entire time. Thank you so much, Dr Fasano. You made this heartbreaking time for us so much easier, and even less painful.

Any pet lover knows when that awful day comes, it's time and NOW! My dog was a 160lbs St Bernard who I couldn't just "take somewhere." Hence why I have an in-home vet. Don't trust this company in an emergency like I went through. Just want you to know from my experience.
