Services Offered
A Dignified Goodbye for Your Dog
The life you’ve built with your dog in Oakville is full of memories—walks through lakeside parks, cozy evenings at home. When their health declines, the decision to consider dog euthanasia is a difficult but loving choice to end their pain. It is a final act of devotion to a loyal friend.
Our service for putting a dog to sleep at home allows your companion to be in their favourite bed, surrounded by familiar sights and smells, with their family close by. It avoids the anxiety of a clinic visit and allows their last moments to be calm and full of love, a farewell worthy of the joy they’ve brought you.
A Peaceful Passing for Your Cat
Cats cherish the comfort and safety of their own territory. For a cat who is unwell, the journey to a vet’s office can be deeply stressful. Our cat euthanasia service in Oakville is designed to respect your cat’s need for a peaceful, familiar environment.
We conduct our visit with quiet sensitivity, allowing your cat to rest on your lap, in a warm sunbeam, or wherever they feel most content. This gentle approach ensures their final moments are filled with warmth and love, not fear and anxiety. It is a dignified farewell that honours the special place your cat holds in your family.
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.

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.

Our gentle Process: What to expect
A peaceful passing starts with a calm and supportive environment. When our veterinarian arrives at your Oakville 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?
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.
What Pet Parents are Saying
Posted on ashley birnieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hardest thing I have ever had to do say goodbye to my soul dog. My heart it still broken. That being said...the private at home experience that Peaceful passing services provide and the caring staff and compassionate vet that guided me through the process really did make the whole situation the best it could have been.Posted on Tyler Van LieropTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Peaceful Passing was able to arrange next-day, in-home euthanasia services for our good boy of 19 years, Pippin. Dr. Suzanne and Emily provided compassion, kindness and respect throughout the whole service; giving time for goodbyes and walking us through the whole procedure. Thank you for making a hard day a little bit easier.Posted on Ashley R.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Peaceful Passing was a blessing in an emergency. Our eldest cat was in her final days and I couldn't bear to not have her home. They responded quickly and with such compassion. They made things as easy as possible in such an awful moment. Dr. Hooper was empathetic, compassionate, informative and so gentle. She made one of the hardest moments easier and validated our grief. I can't thank them enough for their help, empathy and care, as my cat was able to pass in comfort and with dignity. If you decide to provide in-home guidance to the rainbow bridge, please contact them.Posted on Becca ElligTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot thank Dr. Shanna and the Peaceful Passing team enough for their kindness and compassion through this process. Truly felt from start to finish that my dog was in the best hands possible and they made what seems like an unbearable moment that much more tolerable.Posted on Mike CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Shanna and the whole Peaceful Passings team were terrific to deal with in assisting with end of life for my Mum's cat Copper. I cannot believe this level of professionalism, compassion, and trust can be matched. Still a very sad day, but made that much more peaceful with Copper passing at home with those that love him. Thank you again to Dr. Shanna, and the entire Peaceful Passings staff.Posted on Amber PinkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Peaceful Passings for the second time last night, and I honestly can’t put into words how grateful we are. Saying goodbye to a pet is one of the hardest things you’ll ever do, but they make it as gentle and peaceful as it can possibly be. Dr. Graham was so kind and patient with us and with our cat, never rushed for a second. I especially appreciated how much care she took to make sure he was completely relaxed and comfortable before placing the IV. It’s still heartbreaking, of course, but they create such a quiet, loving atmosphere that feels like the most compassionate goodbye you could give. If you ever have the option to say goodbye at home, I truly can’t recommend them enough. They’ve given us peace on two incredibly difficult days, and that means everything.Posted on meg jenkinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so thankful we had the opportunity to use Peaceful Passing in helping our beloved dog cross over. The kindness, caring and compassion they all shared was truly amazing! Our dog was able to pass in the comfort of her own home, surrounded by the family. It was such a hard decision to make, but this part of her passing was made easy thanks to Peaceful Passing. Thank you for creating this service and for answering all of our questions and walking us through this process. We will be forever grateful for this experience.Posted on Tracey DetoroTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were delighted to be referred to Peaceful Passage. The arrangements were incredibly easy, and they accommodated our preferred date and time. The vet explained everything upon arrival, and afterward, we had some peaceful time alone to say our final goodbyes to Comet. Couldn’t imagine a better experience.Posted on Maureen WeberTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Shanna was very friendly, kind and caring. Having our pet pass at home, surrounded by familiar comfort and love, was the only option we considered.Posted on ALL STUFFTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
