Pet Loss at Home - Dr. Lou - In Home Pet Euthanasia - Baltimore, MD
Losing a pet is one of life’s hardest events. Dr. John and Dr. Lou service most of Maryland with a focus on the Baltimore metro area and the Frederick, MD area. We help with planning stages, coping, supporting, educating on the disease, comforting, memorializing with lighting candles, play relaxing music, lay out blankets & pillows, or flower petals in a heart shape in the yard.
In-home pet euthanasia offers a peaceful and compassionate alternative to the stress of transporting a beloved pet to a veterinary clinic. It allows pets to pass away in a familiar and comforting environment surrounded by their loved ones. This can be particularly beneficial for elderly or anxious pets, providing a less traumatic experience during their final moments.
A home visit involves a simple sedation, euthanasia, and services of home burial or cremation - ashes or no ashes. Surround yourself with family and friends and give your other pets time to say goodbye. Hang in there. We're here to help. If your situation is urgent or an emergency, please call us for help at 877-219-4811. Thank You.

Customer Reviews
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.
