Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest decisions a family can make. At The COVE, we understand how deeply pets are woven into the fabric of our lives — and how important it is to offer respectful, dignified end-of-life care when the time comes. Our compassionate veterinary team is here to help you navigate this emotional journey with empathy, transparency, and unwavering support.

Peaceful, Personalized End-of-Life Care
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is never easy, and we are here to make those final moments as gentle and meaningful as possible. Our team provides personalized end-of-life care designed to keep your companion comfortable, calm, and surrounded by love.
With the guidance of our ER Evening Team Lead, Taylor, LVT- a Certified Peaceful Euthanasia Professional (CPEP) through the Companion Animal Euthanasia Academy (CAETA) – we tailor each euthanasia experience to the unique needs of your pet and your family. From start to finish, we are here to support you with empathy and compassion. Ensuring your pet’s final moments are filled with peace, comfort, and love.
What to Expect from Our End-of-Life Care
- Thoughtful consultation to help you understand your pet’s condition and evaluate their quality of life
- Peaceful pet euthanasia administered by experienced veterinarians using gentle, humane protocols
- A quiet, private space where you and your family can spend final moments with your pet
If your pet has a primary care veterinarian, we recommend reaching out to them first, as your pet may feel more at ease with someone familiar. However, if your regular vet is unavailable, our team is ready to help.
Understanding the Euthanasia Process
Choosing pet euthanasia is a deeply personal decision and one of the most compassionate acts of love you can make when your pet is suffering. At The COVE, we approach this process with the utmost sensitivity and respect, ensuring both your pet’s comfort and your family’s emotional well-being are supported throughout.
The procedure typically takes just a few minutes, and your pet will not feel any discomfort. Our goal is to create a serene, loving environment where your pet’s final moments are peaceful, dignified, and pain-free.
When Is the Right Time?
Deciding when euthanasia is appropriate can be incredibly difficult. Our veterinarians — or your family’s primary care vet — can help assess your pet’s quality of life using physical exams, pain assessments, and conversations about your pet’s daily habits, appetite, mobility, and happiness. If you’re struggling with this decision, we’re here to offer compassionate, honest advice based on medical expertise and genuine care for your pet’s best interest.
