Today my cup is full. ❤️

I am so deeply grateful to every family who has trusted me into their homes and hearts during such a sacred time. It is an incredible honor to sit with you, to hold space for your grief and your love, and to help send your companion off with dignity and calm. The kindness, gentleness, and thoughtfulness I witness in these moments renews me again and again.

I also want to say how touched I am by the warmth I encounter in these home visits — it’s a different, softer kind of humanity than what I sometimes see in the bustle of the emergency clinic. I leave feeling quieter, humbled, and reminded of why I do this work.

Thank you for letting me be part of your stories and for trusting me when it matters most. Today — and every day I do this — I am grateful.

🌈 Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 🌈

Today, we take a moment to honor and remember the beloved pets who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. These companions may no longer walk beside us, but they live forever in our hearts, our memories, and the love they gave so freely.

Whether it’s a wagging tail, a gentle purr, or the quiet comfort of their presence, our pets leave pawprints that time can never erase.

If you’d like, please share a photo or a memory of your special companion below. Together, we can celebrate the lives of the pets who brought us so much joy and love. 💜

To all of our friends who are missing a furry family member today—you are not alone.

🐾 A Special Feature in the South Bend Tribune 🐾

We are so honored that the South Bend Tribune recently shared our story. They captured not only what we do through Paws at Peace, but also the heart behind it — helping families say goodbye in the most peaceful, loving way possible.

It was extra special to be featured alongside my sister, Dr. Jessy Harris. This work is truly a family effort, and we’re grateful for the chance to share it with our community.

Paws at Peace founder Dr. Katy Harris said she sees herself as an advocate for pets, allowing them to have peace and comfort in their final moments.

Balancing a full-time ER schedule with at-home euthanasia appointments can be challenging, but when someone reaches out and says I came highly recommended—or thanks me after an appointment—it means the world.

Helping pets say goodbye in the comfort of their own home is something I feel this community truly needs, and I’m so honored each time a family trusts me with that moment. Your gratitude and recommendations mean more to me than you probably realize.

📣 Out of Office Announcement 📣

I wanted to let everyone know that I will be out of town starting today and will not be available to return phone calls, text messages, or emails until Saturday, August 2.

For those who already have appointments scheduled next week, Dr. Jessy will be there to care for you and your beloved pets. If you have any questions related to an upcoming appointment, please send a text and I will get back to you as soon as I can

💛 A quick note from Dr. Katy 💛

I’m so grateful to be trusted by so many families during such a meaningful and emotional time. Right now, every call, text, email, and Facebook message is answered directly by me—and while I truly want to help everyone, it’s becoming difficult to keep up with the volume of messages asking about pricing.

To make things easier, I’ve made all pricing completely transparent on the website. You’ll find detailed costs for house call euthanasia, as well as cremation options and their pricing.

Please check there first if you’re looking for this information.

Thank you for your understanding.

Paws at Peace LLC offers in-home euthanasia services in Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan, providing a tranquil passing for your pet in their familiar surroundings.

“You’ll know when it’s time.”

That’s what so many people are told when facing the decision of euthanasia. But what if that clear moment never comes? What if you don’t get the “aha” feeling that people talks about?

The truth is, it doesn’t usually happen that way. Sometimes the decision feels foggy, complicated, or full of doubt. And that’s okay.

I don’t believe there’s one single “right time” that fits every family or every pet. Some people choose to say goodbye sooner, not wanting their beloved pet to suffer even a moment. Others hold on through every good day, wanting to make sure there truly are no more left.

Both choices come from love. This decision exists on a spectrum—and what feels right for one person may not feel right for someone else. There is no universal formula, just a deeply personal process.

If you’re wrestling with this choice, please know: you are not alone. It’s okay to ask questions, talk it out, and take the time you need to decide what’s best for you and your pet.

No one can make this choice for you, but you don’t have to carry it alone. I’m here to support you—gently, without judgment—every step of the way.

‼️A Note About Scheduling At-Home Euthanasia Appointments‼️

I want to start by saying how deeply honored I am to be part of such an important moment in your pet’s life. Providing a peaceful goodbye at home is something I believe in wholeheartedly, and I wish I could offer this service to every family in need, right when they need it most.

That said, I want to be transparent about what’s possible. I am currently the only provider offering in-home euthanasia in this area, and both Dr. Jessy and I also work full-time jobs outside of these appointments. Because of this, our availability is limited.

I often receive messages from families hoping I can come within a few hours or later the same day. As much as I wish I could say yes to these urgent requests, the reality is that we typically need about a week to schedule an appointment.

This is not an emergency service, but rather something that ideally should be planned in advance—before your pet is in crisis or experiencing significant suffering. I know that can be incredibly difficult to think about, but early planning allows us to ensure your pet’s passing is as gentle and stress-free as possible.

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and trust. It means everything.
