I truly feel like the universe placed Dr. Beth in our path to remind me that every life deserves a gentle, dignified goodbye.

    We cannot thank you all and especially Dr Dahlgren for helping us through this dark time when we…read morehad to say goodbye to our Taffy. She fought lymphoma and was in remission for 18 months but couldn't out run kidney failure. We want to say is a special thank you to Dr Dahlgren for: 1. Validating we were doing the right thing - it is so hard to know if you wait to long and decide too early. Dr Dahlgren confirmed our intuition was correct. 2. Giving us a peaceful process in our own home. Dr Dahlgren explained everything that would happen and made it a kind and caring process, never rushing us, giving us the time to say goodbye. 3. Respecting Taffy in how she was comfortably carried out and left our home. We appreciated how Dr Dahlgren came in with respect and kindness of our special girl by bringing a blanket filled basket that Taffy was placed in and carried out with such care. 4. Partnering with Agape Cremation who kept us up to date on each step of Taffy's cremation process. It was amazing and greatly appreciated. 5. Checking on us 4 weeks to the day that we had to say goodbye. We wish we had found LovingKindness when we had to say goodbye to our little boy, Runner, in 2016....I will never ever put my beloved companions through the stress of going to the veterinarian's office to say goodbye now that LovingKindness is here. Again, we cannot thank LovingKindness so much for taking us through this horrible time but giving our baby girl the peace and respect that she 100,000% deserved.

    I'm so incredibly grateful to Lap of Love for supporting us in every way possible during a…read moreheartbreaking time for me and my family. My 12 year old dog had been battling nasal cancer for 10 months, so I knew that the time I had left with him was winding down. I had been researching end of life care since the moment of his diagnosis, so I was familiar with Lap of Love's services through the recommendation of different vets, as well as from the what I researched online. What appealed to me the most about Lap of Love is that their services can take place in your home. If I were to have the option, I always knew that I would want my dog's end of life care and/or euthanasia to take place in the comfort of my home if possible. So as my dog's health continued to decline during that final week, I knew it was time to make the call. Luckily, I was able to book an appointment online in the middle of the night for a vet to come out the following afternoon. At that point, my dog had stopped eating and I could tell that his breathing patterns were starting to change. Although I felt it was time, I booked for a hospice visit just in case I woke up in the morning and he had signs of vitality. With that service, the vet would come out to our home, evaluate my dog and either provide further care or help us make the call that it was time. Either way, it took some pressure off knowing that I would have a professional evaluation or emergency care on deck no matter what. However, as the morning went on, it was clear that my dog's life was coming to an end. I took the day off to spend the rest of the day loving on my dog with my family. When Dr. Karen arrived, it was like we were blessed with an angel in human form. Dr. Karen was so gentle, kind, loving, patient and professional. She took time to read through my dog's lengthy medical history, reflect about my dog's life, looked at old pictures we shared with her and walk us through what to expect. It felt as though in that moment, she was a part of our family. She genuinely took the time to ensure that we felt comforted and supported. Everything went as smoothly and peacefully as possible. I was able to pray over my dog as he passed, pet him and hold his paws throughout the process. She took the care to tuck him into his sweet little basket with bedding after the process was over. He just looked like he was tucked in, peacefully sleeping. She also took a mold of his paws for us to keep and left us with some resources about grief. The next day she also followed up via email to offer additional support and share resources about support groups and grief counseling services that the business offered. I actually joined their free, virtual support group session two nights after my dog passed away and found some of the perspectives shared from the grief counselor to be helpful and comforting. Although, I likely will never have to go through this again if I had to I would do it all the same again with the support of Lap of Love. If you find yourself in this difficult position, I couldn't possibly give a stronger recommendation based on our perfect experience.

She did not rush anything and give us ample time to say good bye to our loving dog Buddy. She followed up with emails and a beautiful sympathy hand written note to let us know that she cared and understands our grief. She also made the cremation arrangements. Everything was done with care and compassion while maintaining our pet's dignity. I would highly recommend their services.
