Services Offered

A Respectful Goodbye for Your Dog

Your dog has been a constant in your life, a source of joy and companionship. When their health fails, the decision to choose dog euthanasia is a final, selfless act of mercy to end their pain. It is a decision made from a place of profound love.

Our service for putting a dog to sleep at home allows your companion to remain in the place they know and love best. They can rest in their own bed or a favourite spot in the yard, surrounded by family, avoiding the stress of a clinic. We are committed to providing a farewell that is as peaceful and loving as the life you have shared.

A Gentle Farewell for Your Cat

Cats are creatures of comfort who find immense security in their home. For a cat in declining health, leaving home for a vet visit can be incredibly stressful. Our cat euthanasia service in Cambridge is designed to honour their need for a calm, familiar, and peaceful setting.

Our veterinarian will conduct the visit with quiet sensitivity, allowing your cat to stay wherever they are most comfortable—be it your lap, a soft blanket, or a sunlit windowsill. This gentle approach ensures their final moments are filled with love and serenity, not fear. It is a dignified passing that respects the special bond you share.

Pet Transportation and Cremation or Aquamation Service

Sometimes, our pets pass away suddenly and without warning. Peaceful Passing can help ease this difficult time by arranging aftercare and transporting your pet to our cremation or aquamation partner. For Assistance, please fill out this form.

Aftercare, Paw Prints, Urns and Memorial Items

Choosing your aftercare is a personal choice. We offer cremation and aquamation as well as memorial items such as paw prints, urns, jewelry, and other keepsakes.

Virtual and In-Home Quality-of-Life Assessments

Not sure if it’s time yet? Understanding your pet’s medical condition is crucial, but it’s also important to consider how you and your loved ones want to spend your pet’s last days together. We can help by assessing your pet’s quality-of-life and providing guidance during this difficult process.

Start The Quality-of-life assessment tool

Our Pet Quality-of-Life Scale offers a gentle guide to help you assess your beloved companion’s well-being. It provides a compassionate and objective perspective of their quality-of-life, complementing the advice of your trusted veterinarian. Together, these resources ensure that your decisions are rooted in your pet’s best interest and comfort.

Cremation and Aftercare Services in Cambridge

After your pet has passed, we continue to support you by handling all aftercare arrangements with care and respect. We work with trusted local partners to provide professional creation services that honour your pet and your family’s wishes.

You may choose from several options:

Communal Cremation: Your pet is cremated with other beloved pets, and their ashes are scattered respectfully in a dedicated place.
Private Cremation: Your pet is cremated individually, and their ashes are returned to you in a memorial urn as a lasting tribute to the life you shared.

We will manage the transportation of your pet with the utmost dignity, allowing you to focus on your memories. For families in Cambridge seeking compassionate pet euthanasia, our team is here to help.

Our Gentle Process: What to expect

Our mission is to create a supportive and peaceful experience. When our veterinarian arrives at your Cambridge home, she will take the time to explain the process clearly and answer all your questions. We move at your pace, giving you the private, unhurried time you need to say goodbye.

The procedure itself involves two gentle injections. The first is a sedative that allows your pet to drift into a deep, peaceful sleep, free from any discomfort or anxiety. Once your pet is fully relaxed and you are ready, the final medication is administered, allowing them to pass away quickly and gracefully. The entire process is humane and designed to feel like a quiet, gentle transition.

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 compassionately assess your companion upon arrival. 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 20-60 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 or aquamation 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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It’s been a month and a half now since having to contact Peaceful Passing Home Mobility Services to help my beloved cat, Sasha over the rainbow bridge. She was exactly two months shy before her 17th birthday. It was an unfortunate but very sudden decision as my cat was declining rapidly and I could not bare to see her suffer any longer. Since it was already evening hours, I contacted Peaceful Passing with uncertainty as I’ve never done this sort of thing before and wasn’t sure it was even legit, but when they responded back quickly with very detailed information about their services, costs, etc and so on, gave me that realization that it was legit. It was fairly prompt than I expected and even though there was a cost for after hours services , it was worth it more so as Dr. Brooke had to adjust her time for an on call appointment to come to my place. The staff are very compassionate and understanding. I recommend Peaceful Passing to anyone having to make that sudden decision as I did.  I cannot say whether it’s pricey or not as it’s very close to the same price as going to an in person veterinarian. I was and am satisfied with their services 100%. Thank you to the Peaceful Passing team for all of your support during my difficult time. Sasha: Oct. 10, 2009- Aug. 10, 2026.

It’s taken me a while to do this review … it’s a bit strange to review one of the worst days of my life but I know looking at the reviews helped me when the decision had to be made. I lost my soul cat and it was a devastating experience but Dr. Graham was patient, compassionate and empathetic. She gave us the time and space to say to goodbye and showed us nothing but kindness. She communicated with me before her arrival and helped reduce as much of the anxiety surrounding what was to come as possible. She let me hold him, and reassured me it was the right decision to make. Afterward, communication around his remains was also very good and we had his ashes within a week. I’m sorry for anyone reading this review, who’s facing such a difficult choice but peaceful passing was there for us and I’m so glad for it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you for your compassion and empathy at such a devastating time. Dr Hooper was wonderful, explained the process well, and was gentle with my girl. Being able to send her in peace in a place of comfort for her was incredibly important, and I appreciate the care given at every step of the way. I was given as much time as I needed to say goodbye. Thank you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so grateful to Peaceful Passing and Dr. Suzanne Gallant for the compassion and kindness shown to our family when it was time to say goodbye to our beloved 20-year-old cat, Tibby. Making that decision was incredibly difficult, but being able to have Tibby at home, in the place where she felt safe and comfortable, made an unbearably sad day a little easier. Dr. Suzanne was incredibly gentle, patient and compassionate. She took the time to explain the entire process to us and never made us feel rushed. We all sat together on my bed with Tibby, and everything was handled with such calmness, dignity and care. It was so peaceful, and we were able to surround Tibby with love in her own home as we said goodbye. We will always be grateful to Dr. Suzanne for making Tibby’s final moments as peaceful and loving as we could have hoped for. I would wholeheartedly recommend Peaceful Passing to anyone facing the difficult decision of saying goodbye to a beloved pet.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Kirsten Graham was professional, compassionate and so kind when she came to our home. My son says she should be paid a million dollars for what she does and how wonderfully she does it. Thank you so much. Highly sensitive, kind and I so recommend this service. A dignified death for our wonderful Sadie.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service was a true blessing given the condition of our beloved kitty. Not having to put him to another drive to the vet was a relief. We weren't sure of the date because the condition was evolving in his last few days, and the people at Peaceful Passing were very understanding. We managed to get an appointment the morning we decided it was time. Dr. Shanna was very gentle and compassionate through one of our worst times. Thank you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Peaceful Passing and Dr. Shanna made saying goodbye to our baby boy, Banx (a 12-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback with cancer) as peaceful as it could be. It was a devastating loss for us, but they made the process easy and smooth. They were very responsive prior to and flexible. The doctor herself was patient and kind and empathetic. We are still so sad, but at least he passed at home, in his favourite spot, with his loved ones with him, with his head cradled in my arms. Thank you so much Dr. Shanna and team. <3
