End of Life Appointments
Scheduling a euthanasia appointment can help you feel confident and prepared as you approach your pet’s final moments.
Schedule an Appointment
Families who have scheduled a euthanasia appointment are greeted when they arrive. Emergency euthanasia is available on a walk-in basis, but appointments are highly encouraged so our team can anticipate your arrival for the most peaceful experience possible.
Financial Aid Online Application
DoveLewis' financial aid program, the Velvet Assistance Fund, helps hundreds of qualifying families each month say goodbye to their pet. If you have financial concerns, apply and qualify online for financial aid in advance of scheduling an appointment so that you can focus on your pet at such an important moment.
Aftercare + Memorial Considerations
When you schedule an end of life appointment, you can select your aftercare preferences, including private cremation, along with special keepsakes such as fur clippings and paw prints.
Euthanasia is a medical procedure and the cost depends on factors such as the size of the patient and aftercare services. An end of life appointment is $180 and aftercare services range from $0-$600.
