Customer Reviews
We felt like it was best to let our beloved cat Marshie of 19 years go peacefully in his bed at home. I am very grateful for Dr. Nieto and HomeHeart Vets for providing their services directly to our home. They even reached out afterwards to share their condolences which meant a lot to us. Thank you again - October 2025
- Nick GI am so grateful I found Home Heart Vets when it was time to say goodbye to our Lila after 19 years. They couldn’t have been any more compassionate and comforting. Dr Dana took the time to explain everything, followed my lead and waited for me to be ready for each next step, and lovingly and respectfully cared for Lila before and after she transitioned. They sent a touching card offering condolences a week or two later. The whole process and team provided peace and comfort at such a sad time. We are forever grateful for them. - Hoboken, NJ
- Laurie MHomeHeart Vets made my cat Milo's passing as peaceful as possible for both of us. Being in Brooklyn and seeing the company was based in NJ, when I called, I thought it was a real long shot that I'd get someone to come to us on New Year's Eve. I'd almost given up hope and was getting anxious about whether Milo would last even a couple of more days till after the holiday, and if so, without distress. But Dr. Dana came through and was wonderful. I miss Milo terribly, but I will always be comforted by the peaceful passing provided by HomeHeart Vets. He slept comfortably through the whole thing and barely reacted. Thank you for this gift. Here's a pic of sweet Milo on the day I adopted him. He was already 10. I will treasure the six years I had with him. Thanks to HomeHeart, there are no tainted memories of an unpleasant passing.
