Today we retrieved the remains of our beloved senior pups, Dude and Patti. It was a "joint"…read moreeuthanasia as both pups had various health issues that could not be fixed with another visit to our local vet. Anyone with a pet, faces the inevitable and it's not an easy decision but most of the time, it is the only decision one can make and the most humane and merciful. Such was the case with my pups. Dude was 18 years old and Patti was 15 years old. Both were rescues. I love them dearly and miss them every day. When it came time to let go, we chose Kindred Spirits. I had never used a service in home and always went to the vet's office. This time, I decided that I did not want to subject my pups to a 20 minute drive which was always stressful to them, causing them undue anxiety. I wanted their last moments to be at home, surrounded with their family and in a place that was familiar to them...not antiseptic with other dogs barking and the chatter of strangers. I am so glad we went with Kindred Spirits. From my first contact with Alice, who set-up the appointment to meeting Dr. Kellie Barrett, DVM who handled the pups with warmth, kindness, compassion and gave us as much time as needed to spend the last moments with Dude and Patti. It was the last thing I was able to do for my loving, dear pups and it was the best thing for them. I will never regret the decision. I only regret that I couldn't have them with me longer. My thanks and gratitude to both Dr. Barrett and Alice.

Thank you Dr Barrett for your kindness, patience and offing of your at home service…read more Recommend for anyone looking for a stress free and peaceful end of journey.

All staff treated us with kindness and respect during our visit…read more Upon entering there was another dog at the counter with their owner, therefore, we received quick instructions to wait at the seating area. We were quickly guided to a room where I filled out paper work and were a few questions. Noticing my dog's nervousness around a male staff member, I shared that she does get that way around men. Thankfully, they were able to have a female staff members continue to provide the wellness exam my dog needed. All was done with caution, care and cookies! I was updated in an ongoing manner with information. The team went above and beyond to not make my pup feel uncomfortable.

Her health…read moredeclined quickly at the end and she had a really painful night so I decided to put her down to end her suffering. I definitely went to the wrong place, they took Kitty into the back and assured me they were going to "hook her up" and then I could say goodbye and they would put her down in front of me. They took her into the other room full of barking dogs and she was dead when they brought her back. I have had so many sleepless nights and I am full of regret from bringing her to this place. 21 years of warm memories with a beloved friend and it's all turned into a trauma dump for me because all I can think about is how I let her down, I wasn't there for her at the end. She died in a strangers arms wondering where I was in front of a wall of barking caged up dogs. I never wanted to leave her side but the vet tech assured me she would be right back and would be fine. This is easily the worst experience from any single business in my lifetime. They brought back a lifeless cat and tried to play it off.... If I didn't have a baby and a busy schedule I would be pursuing legal action against these monsters. DO NOT TRUST THEM. I understand I brought my cat there to be put down, but they forced her away from me and did it with me in the other room. when I came back to pick up her ashes they described her as "the really squirmy one" she didn't trust many people and I was by far her favorite, I could've calmed her down and let her end be peaceful but this business ensured that she died terrified. I'll be looking forward to the day this place closes.

The whole process while still incredibly sad and painful was so much more peaceful than sitting in a vet room then having to drive home alone.

I have also been telling my friends about the option for at home and recommending Restful Pets from here on out

My mini schanuzer was fighting Valley Fever since 2024, Christmas day. Over the years, I have had to send many before him, but I have never done it from home. He was so comfortable with Dr Gina it broke my heart. On the outside he didn't look sick. He walked right up to her and allowed her to pet him (he is usually stand off'ish). Just before he closed his eyes I kissed him and told him to go find Dad. It's only been a little over a week and I still find it hard to talk about it.

I've been using Kritter Sitters since 2023, and I honestly don't know what I would do without them!…read moreWhen I first had to leave for over a week to go back east, I went through so many interviews with potential sitters--but my little dog, Tillie, only approved of Katie. That sealed the deal for me, and I couldn't be happier with the choice. Katie is professional, reliable, and incredibly kind. Before each trip, she comes by to re-acquaint herself with my little pack and give Tillie a chance to get comfortable with her again. That thoughtfulness goes a long way in easing both my worries and my pup's. At one point, I also had a dog with a lot of medical issues, and Katie handled everything with such calm confidence and care--it never phased her. I'm beyond grateful to Katie and her team for giving me the peace of mind to travel and visit family without stressing about my fur babies. If you're looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet care, I can't recommend Kritter Sitters enough. They are truly the best!

Although I took their information, I didn't think much about it until my 10-year-old Mastiff, Hagrid, was diagnosed with cancer a couple of weeks ago. When we initially planned to have him put down, I intended to go with the traditional cremation option. However, I remembered Cholla and decided to cancel the cremation to give them a call. I can honestly say I am so grateful I found out about them. They were fantastic and offered the option of a sprinkling ceremony, which allowed us to place flowers and herbs on Hagrid before he began his journey. It was a beautiful experience that meant so much to my family and me. Additionally, Cholla collaborates with a shelter for older animals. When I dropped Hagrid off, I was able to donate some of his items, knowing they would go to a good cause. I miss my old man dearly, but I cannot express enough how thankful I am for Cholla Afterlife.

We came across Desert Hills and they got us in immediately. Our dogs were behind on vaccinations and needed their nails trimmed. We were so impressed with the staff, and Dr. Kaufman is outstanding, and is so passionate about his profession. My husband and I were also really pleased he checked each dog thoroughly and verbalized the exam so we knew exactly what was happening. The space is petite, clean, and comfortable with lovely art hanging all around. The entire visit was easy and both dogs were very happy. Also, their prices are comparable to other clinics and they assisted us with quotes for future health issues, so we know the cost, which was greatly appreciated! We are definitely looking forward to going back again with our dogs in tow.
