Services Offered
A Loving Goodbye for Your Dog in Scarborough
Your dog has been your loyal friend, perhaps enjoying walks at Bluffer’s Park or exploring the trails of the Rouge. When their health fades, choosing dog euthanasia at home is a final act of deep love and respect. It spares them the stress of travel and allows them to rest in their favorite spot—whether that’s on the living room rug or in the backyard they loved. We ensure the process is peaceful, private, and filled with love.
A Peaceful Passing for Your Cat
Cats are creatures of habit who find safety in their own territory. A trip to the vet can be frightening, especially when they are unwell. Our in-home service for putting a cat to sleep removes that fear. Dr. Cathy Hooper approaches every visit with gentle sensitivity, allowing your cat to stay where they feel safest—be it on a sunny windowsill, a favorite chair, or curled up in your arms.

Our gentle Process: What to expect
A Peaceful Passing starts with a calm and supportive environment. When our veterinarian arrives at your Scarborough home, she will walk you through the process and answer any questions you have. There is never a rush. We give you all the time you need to say goodbye in a way that feels right for you and your family.
The procedure involves two gentle injections. The first is a sedative to help your pet fall into a deep, peaceful sleep, so they won’t feel any discomfort. Once your pet is fully relaxed and you are ready, the final medication is given, which allows them to pass away gracefully. It is a humane and gentle process, designed to feel like quietly drifting off to sleep.

frequently asked questions
What is included in the cost?
The cost for the visit will vary depending on the size of your pet, the distance driven, and other factors such as the need for additional time or medications. The in-home euthanasia service includes the veterinary visit to your home, a brief assessment, and the sedation & euthanasia procedure. Additionally, based on your aftercare selection, the cost may include, cremation or aquamation, transportation, and keepsakes.
Will you assess my pet upon arrival?
It’s completely natural to question if the time is right. If you need additional clarity, you may find our Quality-of-Life Tool helpful, or you may wish to pursue a Quality-of-life assessment with one of our trusted veterinarians for further guidance.
Should you schedule a euthanasia with us, our veterinarian will briefly assess your companion upon arrival and see if you have any questions. If they feel euthanasia is not the most appropriate path at this time, they will discuss this openly and honestly with you.
How long does the appointment take?
We understand this is a tender time. Your veterinarian will be present in your home for 30-60 minutes, allowing ample space and time for you to say goodbye and be with your companion in a way that feels most comfortable and peaceful.
Will the vet take my pet with them after the appointment?
During your appointment, the vet will confirm your aftercare selection. If you opt for cremation services, the vet will handle your pet’s transportation from your home and will care for your pet’s body until they are respectfully transferred to the appointed aftercare provider.
Are you available for emergencies?
Peaceful Passing’s priority is to accommodate our patients and we can usually have a veterinarian available for same day emergency visits. However, Peaceful Passing is not a 24 hour emergency service. If this is a serious emergency, we recommend contacting your regular veterinary clinic or the nearest veterinary emergency facility.
