Dr Daigler has put down 2 of my dogs and the experience with her is the best it can be, given the scenario. She even put my dog in the back of her car where she was all laid out in a bed wrapped in a blanket- so peacefully. 10/10 would recommend read more

I've had so many cats and endured their final moments. Some have been horrible in the hands of those who I will never go back to. However, having Dr. Daigler help me with my 18 year old Callie (cat) was honestly the most compassionate and caring passing that I could have hoped for my little one. If you are struggling with a pet in need of final help, please call Dr. Daigler of A Peaceful Passage. She's a Godsend and a wonderful person. She'll help you through a very difficult time. read more

We were very pleasantly surprised by just how smooth and peaceful the process was... when it's time to let your pet go over the rainbow bridge, in home euthanasia is by far the nicest way and this sweet lady vet is an angel read more

Wow, putting my baby girl down was probably one of the hardest decisions to make. Dr. Daigler is truly gifted in helping make a difficult time easier. Her coming to the house saved my Bella from the added stress of yet another vet office visit. She came when she said, helped Bella get comfortable with her, we did paperwork then she gave her treats and a quick shot to help her relax and sleep. I was able to hold her the entire time. Afterward she gave me some time and then provided a blanket to wrap her and I was able to carry her out to the drs waiting car. She had a bed and cushions ready for her. It was so peaceful. I highly recommend A Peaceful Passage and Dr. Daigler to anyone facing this difficult decision. Her fee is reasonable for the comfort and peace of mind she provides. read more

Wow... So sad losing my Bookitty of 15 years. Dr. was on time, and compassionate. She didn't rush things, and gave Boo the dignified ending she deserved. read more

Understanding and kind. Professional and thorough. If you don't want to take your pet to a vet clinic for euthanasia, I highly recommend A Peaceful Passage. read more

Absolutely no!!! First encounter I had to ensure I was actually calling A Peaceful Passage because it just sounded like a random answer....as if I was bothering them. I called to get information on their services. She was unprofessional, not compassionate, or caring. I would never allow this company to spend the moments with my beloved animal. Yes, this is a hard time but be a better person!! Especially working with animals and their humans in their last moments. Unbelievable! read more

I could cry writing this review because we are so thankful. It was a nightmare to have to put my best friend down but A peaceful passage made it just that a peaceful Passage. With gentleness and kindness she set up and spoiled our girl with treats. She gave us space and time and reassurance that we were making the right decision. She was kind and knowledgeable. I honestly couldn't imagine doing this any other way. Thank you for taking care of our family during this difficult time. read more

A Peaceful Passage - Veterinarians Near Me

This service in our home was a wonderful, humane way for us to say good-by to our wonderful 14 year old Lab.

Dr. Chris was kind, professional, and lovely. She has a seamless approach to make everyone comfortable and to help the people in the room feel supported. I highly recommend her for this sad task. Thank you, Dr. Chris. read more

If you ever find yourself in the unfortunate situation of needing in-home euthanasia, Dr Daigler makes the process 100% easier. She's extremely kind and compassionate. Doing this in our home, while he was in his bed, made it easier for all of us. read more

Two of my family members had a peaceful passing thanks to Peaceful Passage. I don't want to get into the details, because I lack the bandwidth to get emotional right now, however, I strongly suggest this service! Do not take your dog to the animal shelter for euthanasia. As someone who worked years in animal shelters and saw many senior pet dogs put to sleep, I can tell you as an insider that the comfort and care from the dog's vantage point is far FAR greater when it is in the comfort of your dog's home...and when the person doing it has the time to be unrushed and fully present. Seriously, if you have come to this decision, do it in your home. It is the best last thing you can do for a beloved pet. read more

What can i say ....the passing of a loved one is hard and sad. Dr Daigler brings compassion, respect and dignity to this process. I am so grateful i found her and her services at a time of need. Thank You Doc for doing what you do during our time of need. God Bless. read more

Making an end of life decision for your fur baby is one of the hardest things to go through. We were fortunate enough to have found Dr. Daigler through other positive Yelp reviews, and we contacted her when we thought it was time to put our German Shepherd to sleep. She was very sensitive to all of our questions and helped us feel reassured in our decision. She arrived in a timely manner, was very gentle and sweet with our dog, as well as compassionate towards us. Once he had passed and we had said our goodbyes (privately, she stepped out for a few minutes) she wrapped him up in her big soft blankets and placed him in her car surrounded by pillows. The crematorium that she works with delivered his ashes in a lovely wood box to our doorstep only a week later. It is apparent that Dr. Daigler cares a great deal about animals and wants them to pass without suffering, I would highly recommend her service to anyone who has to make this difficult choice. read more

A Peaceful Passage - Arthur - Veterinarians Near Me

Our beloved dog, Gryffin, was two days shy of his 15th birthday. His health and condition took a major turn for the worst, and we knew that we had to help him cross the Rainbow Bridge so he could be at peace. We called late in the morning, and Dr. Daigler was out to see us in the early afternoon. She was so very comforting and reassuring about everything. Her gentle bedside manner was exactly what I needed as our precious pet breathed his last. I would recommend her and her services to anyone who needs to make the difficult decision to end their pet's suffering. read more

I am not sure on how to rate this place. It might not even be fair to the doctor who is actually the one providing the services. I called on 2.22.2021 to get information. The lady who picked up (sounded like an older women) didn't seem caring at all. The prices that were quoted to me were extremely horrendously high. She seemed more concerned about that than anything else. Once I finally had enough, I told her I will continue my search and she had the audacity to say "well also keep in mind that it's an extra $45 for evenings or weekends" lol at that point I felt like telling her to f*ck off! Is this rating a fair one? Not sure since I never did actually receive the service. But the customer service was awful therefore I feel the 1 start rating could be appropriate. read more

Dr. Daigler visited a few weeks ago to help my 21-year-old cat, Bubu pass. She was professional, compassionate, respectful, and kind. I highly recommend her! read more

Dr. Daigler is a kind, compassionate and thoughtful person. She has a special touch with those pets who are at end of life and their grieving people. I recommend Dr. Daigler to care for your pet and you. read more

Absolutely amazing!! Our dog had a very aggressive form of cancer that within days she could not eat food or drink water anymore. Unfortunately we had to make the hard decision to have her put to sleep. Dr. Daigler was very accommodating and understanding she got us in the very next day. When she arrived she was very compassionate and kind to us and our very sick puppy. She gave us a very nice poem and explained everything she would do. She sat on the floor with us petting our furry baby and talking to her like they were old friends. After we all sat and talked about what was going on and discussed the process she gave her a sedative to help her get to a deep sleep and not have anymore pain. Dr. Daigler sat on the ground with us some more for maybe 20 minutes letting us say our goodbyes, and talked with us about our dog and her personality. After that time she put an IV in, she told us everything she was going to do so we would be prepared. When we were ready she gave our dog the last sedative to help her pass and have no more pain. When our dog passed she went outside to leave us alone to say our goodbyes. She came back in after about 15 minutes and had a very nice blanket that she wrapped our baby. I helped carry our dog out to her car that she had the back opened up ready for us. When we got outside we saw that she had it set up like a bed with a pillow to make our dog look like she was sleeping peacefully on her final trip. Dr. Daigler finished by hugging us both consoling us like we were old friends. She also gave us a satchel with some of our dogs fur and made a beautiful heart shaped paw print keepsake for us with our dogs name on it. She is a very kind hearted professional Veterinarian that I would highly recommend. read more

Dr. Daigler was amazingly responsive, compassionate and excellent in every way. A terrible day made more tolerable by her guidance and care. Strongly recommended. read more

I wanted to put a review up on this page, as odd as it is - but this is where I got Dr. Daigler's information, so I wanted to spread the good word. Yesterday Dr. Daigler came to our house and helped my husband and I say good bye to our 16 year old Golden. It was unbelievably painful, but Dr Daigler was absolutely amazing handling the entire thing. She first came in and handled all the admin stuff first (which I appreciated). She got on the ground with our baby and made her feel at ease. She explained the entire process to us (as we cried - and she maintained the UTMOST professionalism). She gave us time with our girl as things progressed and I just cannot thank her enough for her bedside manner. This was the most peaceful way to leave this world, and I would never do it any other way with any of our other fur babies. Thank you, Dr. Daigler for your help. read more

I couldn't have asked for a more caring person to help us in this extreme sad time. Our husky had cancer and it was time. Dr. Daigler, was so kind and soft spoken and walked us through everything. She provided a sweet clay heart with our pups name engraved in it and put a paw print of our husky on it for ours to keep. She helped our girl pass in the most humane way and comforting way possible, and I'll be forever grateful for her during this sad time. read more

The dreaded day came when it was time to put my sweet Hannah down and when Dr. Daigler arrived I knew instantly that I was in good hands. She walked me through the process with love and kindness and made the experience of losing a pet less devastating. I called around and spoke to two other places and was treated like a number and not a human going through a horrible situation. The heartfelt care and concern that you took from start to finish will never be forgotten. Thank you again for making the process beautiful and loving. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Diegler. read more

It's been a month now since Dr. Daigler was at my home to help me say goodbye to my 17 year old cat who had cancer and went downhill quite quickly. Dr. Daigler was the utmost in professionalism and helped me get through that awful day by making my cat, and me, feel better. From the first phone call to explaining each step of the process, Dr. Daigler was kind, gentle and supportive. It's a terrible day that all pet owners have to face but with Dr. Daigler's help - it's made a little bit easier. read more

My sons 16 yr old cat let him know that it was time to go.... A Peaceful Passage showed up and gently eased his pain and suffering. All pets should receive this kind of easy and gentle passage... very professional and calming. Highly recommended. read more

While I would never wish this experience on anyone, if you have to help your pet across the Rainbow Bridge, I recommend Dr. Daigler. She was kind, compassionate with our Gracie Jane as well as with us, loving towards my best girl through the process. She was discreet with the family during the business-portion of the visit, and kind when she performed the process. Scheduling was easy, and in spite of our sweet girl being a large breed dog, Dr. Daigler was gentle with her even after she had passed. If you need a service like this one, do both you and your pet a favor and call Dr. Daigler. She will help all of you through the process. read more

My beloved Maggie was handled with love during her trip over the Rainbow Bridge. I highly reccommend Peaceful Passage. My beloved dog was treated with the utmost care and love during her passing. read more

Dr. Daigler was recommended by friends who have also used her services. Her assistant was kind on the phone. She asked questions regarding my cat's age, past health issues and current condition. I was able to get an appointment for the next day. It was clear when Dr. Daigler arrived that she has a great bedside manner with pets. My cat was clearly in pain and I was worried that he would be scared or frightened but he was very calm with her. Given Willie's age, we had chosen to make him comfortable after a bad medical diagnosis last spring rather than pursue treatment. Dr. Daigler was non-judgmental and very understanding. I was able to hold Willie while the doctor administered medications. Willie passed peacefully and afterwards, Dr. Daigler took great care of him. The back of her car is full of blankets and pillows so when she drove off, Willie looked like he was fast asleep. As part of the service, the doctor made a paw print in a clay heart for us to keep and followed up with a sympathy card later in the week. I would whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Daigler. Willie was in great hands and our last moments together were restful and serene. read more

A Peaceful Passage - Our little Willie. - Veterinarians Near Me

Dr. Daigler made letting go of my best friend a little easier. I can't say enough good things about her or the services she provides. It was an enormous blessing to be at home for this. Dr. Daigler was so compassionate and told me what to expect, and gave me time to say goodbye. I am so grateful for the peace she gave us. read more

Dr. Daigler helped us through the difficult but necessary process of letting go of our 11 year old dog who was suffering with cancer. His health went downhill quite suddenly and on a weekend, and she was able to come to our home almost immediately. It gave our family great comfort to be able to have our dog pass at home surrounded by family, and to have her take care of his cremation for us. I would highly recommend Dr. Daigler. read more

Putting your dog down is never an easy decision, especially with the COVID isolation. It was pretty rough because I really needed her during this, but she needed me to do the right thing. Although old with cushings disease, I was absolutely destroyed. Dr. Daigler (whom I had never met before this day), came over like we had been friends forever. I hope that she knows that by treating my dog like it was her own, with care and respect and love and took her time, when I was ready, it meant so much to me and did bring me complete peace. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Dr. Daigler. Thank you. read more

A Peaceful Passage - Sophie looking for her morning time squirrels. - Veterinarians Near Me

Christine is a truly gentle human being who provides a lovely, peaceful service at what is a difficult and sad time for families. She made our seemingly unbearable decision feel bearable. Gatsby - our 14-year-old kitty sidekick - got terribly ill, and tests showed only difficult ways to keep him with us. We brought him home to have a final, loving day and found Christine. Her ease and kindness with us and Gatsby in our home not only saved him from one last anxiety-filled trip, but also made his leaving us for his next adventure serene. Though doing this at home may not be for every pet-loving family, we could not recommend anyone more highly. Thank you again, Christine. read more

We love our vet and have had other dogs euthanized by her, but with Covid we could not just pass Bailey out of the car window and never see him again. Dr Daigler was was wonderful, kind, caring and compassionate; and made the process easier. The person answering the phones was also very kind. We really appreciate the response from Peaceful Passage. read more

When it was time for us to say goodbye to our chocolate lab after our 14 years together, we knew we wanted to do it in our home, but didn't know where to go for help, as we were clearly in COVID times. We were happy to find Dr. Daigler and the online reviews were very helpful, so thank you to those who took time to leave reviews. She called us back quickly, was able to offer several appointment options, and was reasonably priced. She explained everything in advance and continued to do so on the day of our goodbye, and even helped us explain it to our children. Dr. Daigler also transported our dog to cremation and took care of those details for us. We got her ashes back from the crematory in a lovely wooden box. It's been almost 5 months now, and reflecting back we are just as pleased as ever. read more

It all happened so fast. One morning we are at the vet, that afternoon, we are planning to put our beloved family dog down in the best way possible. One call to Peaceful Passage, and Dr. Daigler was at our home less than 24 hours later. The reviews I read were so helpful. It happened just like the reviews said. Everything was explained. No surprises. No shock. Just calm, respectful, and appropriate for such an important member of our family. I've taken dogs to the Animal Shelter for euthanasia before, and I'm so glad I found A Peaceful Passage. It was still incredibly emotional for us, but Dr. Daigler got us all through it. Many Thanks! read more

Dr. Christine Daigler is a wonderful human being. Our beloved cat Buttercup sadly came down with lymphoma at age fourteen, and when we knew we couldn't help her get better, we called Dr. Daigler. Her assistant Genevieve was super helpful in finding an appointment time that worked for everybody, and we were fortunate to get one on the same day that we called. Dr. Daigler came to our home at the promised time, and she was the very model of compassion right from the start. We took care of the paperwork first, deciding about cremation and handling payment. Then we took Buttercup to her most comfortable spot in the house and Dr. Daigler explained exactly how the euthanasia process would work. I held Buttercup in my lap through the whole process. There was a small subcutaneous injection of a sedative to help Buttercup fall asleep, which took a few minutes. Then came the actual euthanasia injection in the belly, which caused no pain. It took some time to take effect, during which time we cried and shared stories about our cat. When it was over, Dr. Daigler prepared a cat bed in the back of her car, and we put Buttercup inside, wrapped in a blanket. Soon, we will get her ashes from our regular vet's office. The death of a beloved pet is horrible, but working with Dr. Daigler made it right. Buttercup isn't suffering any more, and while we are grieving we are happy that she had the best possible death. Thank you, Christine. read more

I know it may seem odd to find a service like this on Yelp, and then to leave a review but Dr. Daigler was really amazing. My elderly dog had a really rough couple days and we knew it was time, but due to the COVID situation we could not find a local vet that would allow us to be in the room for the euthanasia or even take her body to a crematory. I was SO relieved that she was still willing to do a house call (after discussing that my husband and I both work from home, and would respect social distancing guidelines). She was calm, respectful, and professional. I was a total wreck, but she managed to say all of the right things. She made a difficult situation during a difficult time, as peaceful as it could possibly be. She provided an accurate description of what to expect and what it would cost. I received the ashes back in less then a week and they were delivered to my doorstep in a beautiful wooden box. I can't say enough wonderful things about her service, and if anyone finds themselves making the most difficult of decision, I would not hesitate to recommend her. read more

Please show me a way to give more than 5 stars!! My 20 year old cat Katrina was in end stage kidney failure and had decided she needed to cross the Bridge with a little help. This is such a difficult decision and made so much harder when you have to pack up your kids in a carrier, take a ride in the car, sit in a vet clinic waiting room with strange sights, smells and sounds and then cross in a sterile environment. Dr. Daigler eliminated all of the stress of this and more. She came to my home, met Katrina and was so incredibly kind while I cried my eyes out holding my baby. She went very peacefully, with none of the anxiety she would have had at a clinic. It was her bed, her blanket and me. I got to hold her for as long as I wanted before Dr. Daigler said she would take her to the crematorium. My stomach lurched at the thought of putting my kid in a cooler for the journey. Imagine my surprise when she opened up her Highlander and there was a cat bed surrounded by throw pillows! My beautiful Katrina was escorted away in a chariot! Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and compassion. You are a wonderful human being, Dr. Daigler. read more

Selected after finding on yelp. I was pleased with the process. It went as well as could be expected considering the circumstance of losing my cat. My cat has been through trauma at the vet and it was wonderful to keep her at home on my lap till her final moments. The cost was $330 which included the mobile vet taking her in a wrapped blanket to the funeral home - cremation, small tin urn and ceramic paw print included. The vet was caring and kind. The scheduling receptionist was also a pleasure to work with. read more

I just wanted to take a moment to share our experience with Dr. Daigler this past weekend...my husband and I recently had to make the tough decision to say goodbye to our 14 year old kitty Mary Jane, who was diagnosed with kidney failure in March. We decided on the in home service as to not cause her any more stress or fear ( she was not the biggest fan of visits to the vet!). She got to spend the whole morning lounging outside in the sunshine, and watching the birds which she always loved to do. We were so sad that our baby would be leaving us that day, but Dr. Daigler explained the whole process and helped Mary Jane pass in the most peaceful and compassionate way. We are still coping with her huge absence everyday, but are so relieved that she is no longer in pain and was able to go on her journey peacefully. I will always recommend Dr. Daigler and are so glad we found this service when we needed it. read more
