Pet hospice care is supportive end-of-life care for dogs and cats. The goal is not to cure a terminal or age-related condition. The goal is to help your pet stay as comfortable, calm and supported as possible while helping your family understand what to expect.
Humane Pet Euthanasia provides private mobile veterinary hospice guidance for families caring for senior pets, seriously ill pets, pets with declining mobility or pets whose quality of life is changing. Dr. Scherrer can help you review comfort, pain signs, appetite, mobility, anxiety, dignity and end-of-life planning.
This is a private mobile veterinary service at your home. Pricing depends on your location, appointment timing, your pet’s condition and the level of guidance needed. If your pet is in immediate crisis, contact an emergency veterinary hospital right away.
Request Hospice Guidance“Hospice care can truly benefit not only the patient involved but also provide time for each owner to be comfortable in their decision of euthanasia. Although I cannot make the decision for you, I can provide my medical knowledge so that you and your family have all the information needed during this time.”
- Dr. ScherrerHospice care is centered on comfort, quality of life and family support. It can help you understand what changes are normal, what signs may mean your pet is uncomfortable, and when additional veterinary care or humane euthanasia may need to be considered.
Hospice care is designed for comfort-based support and end-of-life planning. It does not replace emergency veterinary care, surgery, hospitalization or a full diagnostic workup. Blood work, x-rays and advanced testing are usually handled by your primary veterinarian or a veterinary hospital.
If your pet is struggling to breathe, actively bleeding, having uncontrolled seizures, collapsing or experiencing sudden severe distress, contact an emergency veterinary hospital immediately.
