Journey Home Vet - In Home Pet Euthanasia - Dacono, CO
As a licensed veterinarian with extensive certifications in veterinary hospice, palliative care, and acupuncture, I am dedicated to providing compassionate end-of-life services for your beloved pets right in the comfort of your own home. With a focus on dogs, cats, and small animals like chinchillas, ferrets, guinea pigs, and rabbits, I have been serving the North Denver Metro area—including Longmont, Loveland, Boulder, and Brighton—since November 2019. My approach is designed to ease the emotional burden on both pets and their families during this sensitive time.
I understand that every pet deserves the utmost care and comfort, which is why I incorporate my expertise as a Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian (CHPV) and Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist (CVA) to offer tailored services such as mobile acupuncture and therapeutic laser treatments. Whether you have a furry friend weighing under 20 lbs or one over 80 lbs, I am fully equipped to provide the specialized support they need. My affiliation with the International Association for Animal Hospice and Palliative Care (IAAHPC) and the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) ensures that I stay updated on the latest practices in pet care.
I offer flexible scheduling and am here to support you through every step of this journey. If you're looking for a caring and experienced pet professional to help your pet in their final days or to provide ongoing pain management, I invite you to reach out. Ready to get started?

🦔 Compassionate In-Home Pet Euthanasia by Stephanie Kotas, DVM
When the time comes to say goodbye, where it happens matters. Stephanie comes to your home so your dog or cat can pass peacefully in a familiar, loving environment — surrounded by the sights, smells, and people they know.
Stephanie provides gentle, respectful in-home pet euthanasia in Dacono, CO, serving pet parents throughout Weld County and surrounding areas including Longmont, Boulder, Thornton, Broomfield, Loveland, Westminster, Arvada, Northglenn, Brighton, Lafayette. Each visit is paced entirely around you and your pet — there is no rush, no cold clinic setting, and no moment spent away from home.
What should I expect during Stephanie's visit?
When Stephanie arrives, they will take time to meet you and your pet, answer any questions you have, and ensure you feel comfortable before anything begins. There is no rush.
The visit typically has three stages. First, a sedative is administered to help your pet relax completely — most pets become calm and drowsy within a few minutes. Second, once your pet is fully at ease, the final medication is given. The process is gentle and painless, and your pet will simply drift off to sleep. Third, Stephanie will confirm the passing and give you as much time as you need to say goodbye. You are welcome to hold your pet, have family members present, or simply sit quietly together. The entire visit is guided entirely by you.
