Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the most emotional decisions a family can face. At Countryside Veterinary Services, we approach this moment with the deepest compassion, respect, and dignity. Our goal is to help your pet pass peacefully, free of fear or discomfort, while supporting you through every step of the process.

A Peaceful and Gentle Experience

We prioritize creating a calm environment where your pet feels safe and loved. Our dedicated team ensures:

  • A quiet, private space for families who wish to be present
  • Clear guidance on what to expect before, during, and after the procedure
  • Emotional support throughout the entire process

Your pet’s comfort is our top priority, and we use gentle sedation before the final medication so they pass quietly and without distress.

How to Know When It’s Time

Making this decision can feel overwhelming. We offer compassionate guidance to help you determine your pet’s quality of life, considering:

  • Pain levels
  • Mobility challenges
  • Appetite and hydration
  • Ability to enjoy daily activities
  • Overall comfort and wellbeing

You never have to make this decision alone—our team is here to help you evaluate what’s best for your pet with empathy and honesty.

Aftercare Options

We understand that every family honors their pet differently. Countryside Veterinary Services provides several aftercare choices:

  • Private cremation (ashes returned in a memorial urn)
  • Communal cremation
  • Personal keepsakes such as paw prints or fur clippings

We will walk you through each option so you can choose what feels right for your family.

Support for You and Your Family

Grieving a pet is deeply personal. We can help connect you with local and national resources for grief support, children’s pet-loss materials, and memorial ideas to honor your companion.
