I am not someone who leaves reviews but I felt it was very important to share my story here. Likely if you are reading these reviews you’ve gotten to the point where you’ve had to make the horrible decision of planning to put down your best friend. I’ll keep it short for you, call Compassionate Care and I promise they will provide your pet with the best option available. If you’d like to continue reading about my experience then here you go:I was 14 years old when I was gifted a little 8 week old puppy I named Mavrick (yes I know it’s spelled wrong). I had begged for this specific puppy after coming across his sweet face on the OHS website. Mavrick and I did everything together. It got to the point where people became accustomed to seeing us together and therefore it was never just “hey Diana!” It was “hey Diana and Mavrick!” When I learned how to drive Mavrick was sitting the the back seat peering out the window with terror in his eyes. . . he was very dramatic but always insisted on coming along. After I became a legal driver and embarked on my first journey without a parent present Mavrick was there. When I embarked on my fitness journey he happily / reluctantly allowed me to drag him along on my runs (We were both out of shape and slow). When I graduated high school, I celebrated with him. When I started local college, I studied with him. When I met a cute guy, I told Mavrick. When that cute guy ended up being terrible, I hugged Mavrick. When I interviewed for my dream job, Mavrick was in the car during the interview. When I got the job and got promotions, I celebrated with Mavrick. Through all the things Mavrick was there. He was my best friend and he was my sidekick. But as he aged the writing was on the wall. What could I do to send my best friend off in a way that reflected and preserved all the time and memories we shared together in a way that was best for him. So I opted for an at home euthanasia where he could rest easy in his favorite spot in the front yard as he took his final breath. On the overcast misty morning of May, 25th 2019 A wonderfully warm woman named Trish arrived to help Mavrick on his way. I had a lot of anxiety about him leaving me both physically and emotionally and when I saw her arrive in a little Subaru and not a doggie coroner van, which is what my mind had pictured, I felt so much relief. After he passed I was able to place his body in the car myself, tuck him in with a blanket and tell him goodbye. Trisha was amazing and so kind that I instantly felt comfortable handing over my very best to this woman knowing that every peace of him was safe and respected. The service compassionate care provides is phenomenal and I couldn’t fathom doing it any other way. Mavrick was blissfully unaware and happy the entire time and that was all I ever wanted for him.
