Compassionate at Home Euthanasia for Dogs & Cats in Cornwall

Dr Nicola Carrier is a home visit vet who is able to provide a compassionate, dignified and peaceful pet euthanasia at home. The home visit removes the stress of travelling to the vets, waiting in a crowded waiting room and your pet becoming distressed. When Nicola comes to your home, it will not be rushed. She will get to know your pet and yourselves. After documentation has been completed, Nicola will give your pet an injection of sedation. This will mean they peacefully fall asleep and will not feel pain. Once they are sedated, the final injection is given. The home visit can take approximately 45 minutes to an hour. You will then have time to spend with your beloved pet afterwards.
