My husband and I are in our seventies and have had to euthanize many pets, but we have never been able to have a vet come to our home to do it. Dr. Renee Butler was not only the most compassionate vet, but she told us everything she knew about how the animals have different reactions and things no other vet ever explained to us! Donna the contact person was also very loving and compassionate . Plus the cremation team were very courteous, helpful and sympathetic. We can't recommend them highly enough. Max our English Cream golden retriever had the best trip over the Rainbow Bridge. Sincerely, Jack and Jan Derry

There are no words that can fully express our gratitude for the kindness and compassion Dr. Amanda showed us as we said goodbye to our beloved Sonny. For fourteen and a half years, he was our faithful companion, our hiking partner, our source of laughter, and a cherished member of our family. Making the decision to let him go was the hardest act of love we have ever faced, but Dr. Amanda's gentleness gave us the strength to do what was best for him. She treated Sonny with such dignity and tenderness, and she treated us with the same compassion. In the midst of our heartbreak, her calm voice, caring hands, and genuine empathy brought us comfort we will never forget. Although our home feels unbearably empty, we find peace in knowing that Sonny's final moments were filled with love, surrounded by the people who adored him and cared for him so deeply. Thank you for the work you do every day. It takes extraordinary hearts to help families through such profound loss, and we will always be grateful that you were there for ours.

I recently used Lap of Love when it was time to put my 11 year-old labrador down. I was of course, a wreck about it, but Dr. Morina helped to guide me through the process, gave me space to be with my girl and make sure she was comfortable during her last few moments, and just made a very difficult day/decision, much more peaceful for me and Bella. While it is not a service I want to use frequently, I’m so grateful to know that Lap of Love is out there because giving your dog the ability to go peacefully at home instead of being in the vets office and being nervous is just a complete game changer. Thank you, Dr. Morina, you are an angel and I will forever be grateful that our paths crossed.

I tested them out once a couple years before my dogs death. No one answered so I left a voice mail and no one called me back. When my dog was terminal I called on Saturday morning and the earliest available to come to my house was Monday. They aren’t as advertised,, at least not in the Tampa area.

Dr. Lexi provided exceptional compassion, kindness, and dignity, allowing Lizzy to pass peacefully in the comfort of her own home, surrounded by the people who loved her. On one of the hardest days of our lives, her gentle care brought us comfort and peace, and we will always be grateful for the gift she gave both Lizzy and our family.

We used this service last weekend and was very pleased. We've now had to put 3 dogs down, two at the vet and our Buddy with Lap of Love. This experience was by far more gentle and humane on both our puppy and us.

My dog was KILLED by them when might’ve had a chance to live- 18 - my vet Dr. Browning at TLC to do very low surgery- remove 1 small growth w local-had concern. Seeing 15 yrs -fab reputation. Changed-- gave general to remove unnecessary growths-no consent. Never give 18 general! -Something fishy- last minute change. No consent- no preop blood.. After 4th day call LOL for just assessment -as couldn’t reach vet- Seemed wanted to avoid me. Dr. Sylvia comes -so fast -he’s passed out from anesthesia-on couch But alive. Euthanized him. So fast. Trusted her expertise. Learn after my vet failed to tell-take to ER -bloodwork needed to check organs-his kidneys, already compromised. Out of character for her so fishy reason changed. He’s layey out on couch- still alive. Had dogs all life thought it was a matter of time for anesthesia to wear off. Learned after are things that you do - my own Vet didn’t tell me- making sure covered w blanket so don’t get hyperthermia - until out of anesthesia should’ve been told to go to an ER for critical care - to do bloodwork to see what’s going on with kidneys, etc. to see if has chance. Dr. S in a hurry. She doesn’t really examine him much. She doesn’t ask about him much. He walked an hour night before surgery. . She was so fast she kill him- Emails states SHE DECIDED - not me. Not how should be. Should have before I euthanize take measures your Vet didnt say -then if I’m possible to come back then call me . Perhaps a different LAPDVM would’ve said but got her 1 . In a hurry. Man in car- maybe on way to dinner- in email next day like talking about different dog - says incontitent- couldn’t get up on own. NOT true. Suspect made up to justify. Lies-Called my my vet. Says she said very sick dog really that operate on on dog? She told her underselling issues! Speculate told me to justify what did. But LIED. Career in experimenting on animals.ugh Suspect limited experience with cats & dogs.After her email flipped-left VM w corporate- was beyond upset when realized reality. upset, but not threatening just saying she killed my dog based on wrong reasons didn’t know the facts - didnt rec what may have saved him. . They blocked me nationwide. A company about compassion- people died by suicide after losing pet someone from corporate should’ve called me to make sure I was OK and listen to situation. Via google- found owner- advocate for extending senior dogs life’s yet look what happened to my senior dog. He was KILLED when might have chance. Maybe small owner should’ve fired her that she killed a dog that had a chance of living even if small - deserved that. Sure some of their vets are good. If only I got a different one it was a longshot at that point based on his age, but still she should have instructed to do what could maybe help. Rather quickly kills. Speculate knew when walked in door. You Think euthanizing bring more money than assessment? Will never be same. I thought he was suffering. Screamed out in early am- thought in pain gave gabapentin which did set him back since that can cause lethargy. I told her an email she wrote that drug would not cause lethargy and that is so wrong. She doesn’t have the knowledge to be doing what she’s doing.!! Taking a life! A company that has special lever they pull block someone nationwide there’s gotta be a reason.

Dr. Jen is so compassionate, caring, patient. There’s not enough to describe how amazing she is. We are truly grateful to Dr. Jen and Lap of Love for being there for us in our time of need.
