Losing a pet is a deep, personal heartbreak—and when that grief meets autumn, a season already full of change and letting go, it can feel even heavier.

If you're hurting, try taking a quiet walk in nature. Let the crunch of fallen leaves and the cool, steady air hold space for your sorrow. Pause somewhere peaceful to write a note to your pet—what you miss, what you wish you could say, or simply a thank you.

Let the stillness of the season remind you: grief is love in another form, and it’s okay to take your time.

You’re not alone. We’re here to walk with you through the grief. ❤️

❤️Kindness to Animals Day, recognized on October 4❤️
Today, we honor the unconditional love animals give us—and the deep kindness it takes to care for them, especially at life’s end.
Kindness to animals isn’t just about how we treat them in life, but how we support them with love, dignity, and peace in their final moments. It’s one of the most compassionate gifts we can give.

Grief is something that we all experience in our lives. We sometimes are asked the question if pets feel sadness at the loss of their companions. There are some studies that show that dogs, just like humans, can show signs of grief and loss when a beloved friend is no longer present. We absolutely welcome your other pets to be present during the visit, and we have found this helps them have an immediate understanding that their friend has gone, and helps shorten the period of depression some pets experience after a loss.

National Pet Memorial Day -observed on the second Sunday in September- is a time to remember and celebrate the life of a beloved pet.
Grief has no timeline - it's okay to feel the weight of loss and process those feelings in your own time. Today, honor your pet in a way that feels right for you: create a small memorial, share their story, or simply hold their memory close.
The love you shared lives on, always.❤️

Losing a pet is incredibly heartbreaking, and your support can mean the world to a grieving friend or family member. Simply being there—listening without judgment, acknowledging their pain, and offering comfort—makes a huge difference. Share kind memories of their pet, check in often, and offer help with daily tasks if needed. Small gestures of empathy can bring big comfort during such a tough time. ❤️

Loving others is the bravest, hardest, and most rewarding thing we can do in life. It opens our hearts to grief at their loss, but without love, life wouldn’t be worth living at all.

“Sunsets are loved because they vanish. Flowers are loved because they go. The dogs of the field and the cats of the kitchen are loved because soon they must depart. These are not the sole reasons, but at the heart of morning welcomes and afternoon laughters is the promise of farewell. In the gray muzzle of an old dog we see goodbye. In the tired face of an old friend we read long journeys beyond returns.” —Ray Bradbury

Our Story

The decision to euthanize a companion is always difficult. The option to be at home in a quiet, loving environment can make a big difference for families who are uncomfortable with bringing their loved one to a veterinary hospital. From knowing their companion suffers extreme stress and fear at the vet, having a large dog that is incapacitated and cannot make the trip, or simply because being at home is the only way families can imagine making this transition, we know and understand your needs.

Dr. Kristen Klie graduated veterinary school from Colorado State University in 1996. She has worked as a relief veterinarian in over 30 hospitals throughout Connecticut and has earned the respect and trust throughout the veterinary community that allows other doctors to feel comfortable referring their beloved clients to her service, knowing they are in good hands. Devoted to expanding her work of service, compassion and diversity, Dr. Klie attended Hartford Seminary’s interfaith chaplaincy program. It was a natural progression that her passion for veterinary medicine turned into a calling for “Final Journey”. This unique perspective allows for deeper connection and care for all her clients.
