Pet Loss at Home - Dr. Lynn Britton - Pet Euthanasia - Lafayette, LA
Dr. Lynn Britton and her Team serve the Lafayette & Baton Rouge Louisiana metro areas. We offer end-of-life care for your pet using a network of professional, compassionate, and caring veterinarians. We'll help guide you through this difficult time because we care. If you use the contact form, we’ll contact you right away to help guide you. Above all, we want you to be treated with dignity and respect as we guide you through the process of saying goodbye. We know this is a very difficult time during your pet’s end-of-life because of illness or old age. Signs of suffering, quality of life, and many more topics are questions that our veterinarians have answers for so you can prepare. Surround yourself with family and friends and give your other pets time to say goodbye. Every pet-loss journey is unique, but as pet parents, we all share the desire to extend the lives of our beloved companions for as long as possible in a humane way.
When your pet’s quality of life declines to the point where recovery from constant pain, discomfort, or anxiety is no longer possible, or they can’t meet their basic needs, most veterinarians will recommend euthanasia as a compassionate option to ease their suffering. When a good life is no longer viable, a peaceful death becomes the kindest choice.
To help make this difficult decision, we suggest these six steps:
Hang in there. It’s an incredibly tough choice, but as their caregiver, you know best when your pet's suffering outweighs their quality of life.
We can help. If your situation is urgent or an emergency, please call us for help at 877-219-4811. Thank You.

Dr. Tracey Decter and Pet Loss At Home was the perfect selection for our family to say goodbye to our beloved Kodi. She was so empathetic and patient. She kept checking in with us making sure all our questions up to the day of were answered. She explained everything and told us what we could expect which made it easier for us to prepare. She helped us say goodbye to our pet with love and dignity and he was able to be comfortable at home and not scared in a clinic or somewhere unfamiliar. If you are in the unfortunate spot where you have to make this decision just know she will make the decision that much better. I can't say enough about how happy and at peace I am with how we were able to say goodbye to our boy. - West Palm Beach, Florida - February 2025
- Elizabeth AMy beloved pooch was a shelter rescue who had been adopted and returned multiple times before we found each other. The vet's office reminded him of being dropped off and left behind, so when it was clear his time had come I really didn't want his last moments to be in the vet's office. We had several good years together and I felt so grateful for all of the love he had given me. I really wanted to do well by him at the end. At 10 p.m. on a Monday night, I called the number for Pet Loss at Home and listened to the pre-recorded greeting. It instructed me to call or text the number in the greeting. I texted and was relieved when Dr. Rachel wrote back quickly. She agreed to come at 8:00 a.m. the next day. I felt fortunate that she was able to come to my home on such short notice. She arrived on time at 8 a.m. and could not have been kinder or more professional. She was wonderful to my sweet boy and very soothing. This was probably one of the hardest things I've ever had to do and it felt comforting to be able to say goodbye in our home, sitting in his favorite spot together. Dr. Rachel gave hugs before she left and a couple of days later I received a touching card in the mail. I didn't really do much research into this service as my dog declined very quickly and I was concerned about whether or not the person who arrived would be compassionate and professional. Dr. Rachel was all of that and more. My heart goes out to you if you're in need of this service, but if you do, you're in good hands.
- Josette CI had to have my cat Jackson put to sleep this evening. Dr. Allegra Liu was very professional and compassionate. She came to my home on very short notice. I would recommend this vet for all of your pet needs. I am very grateful to her and her genuine love for our fur babies! Thank you Dr. - San Francisco, CA
