It's been 6 years since we had Home with Dignity help our Horus across the rainbow bridge. We had to reach out again, after a rather sudden change in our girl. Dr Audrey was spectacular in such a heartbreaking time. She ensured she stepped us through the process, allowed us time to say our goodbyes & was just all around kind & compassionate. Thanks to Home with Dignity for allowing us to be with our girl as she crossed. read more

Our hearts were breaking as we had to say goodbye to our sweet dog last week. Dr. Washburn took such great care of him and us as we said our final goodbyes to include wrapping him snuggly as he was gently placed in her vehicle afterwards. We spoke to Sara on the phone that morning who was very empathetic and able to have the Dr come out just a few hours later. read more

I usually don't leave reviews, but Home with Dignity was such a blessing to our family that I had to take the time to share. Our sweet Snowcap was terrified of the vet and I didn't want him to go out like that so I asked around and the name of this wonderful company came up time after time. We couldn't have made a better choice. As gut wrenching as this process was, it couldn't have been more beautiful. Dr. Audrey Washburn is an amazing doctor , who was so empathetic and compassionate with us from the moment she walked in the door. She was so kind and gentle. She had only first met us, and you could that she cared deeply for our cat, and our whole family. She answered all my kids' tear filled questions with loving kindness. Snowcap fell asleep happy and purring. I held him in my arms as my daughter held his head, and my son held his paw, and we said goodbye. Even the receptionist the day before was amazing. She called me within 15-20 minutes of requesting the appointment and was very compassionate. I can't recommend them enough. It takes someone super special to do this for people. These guys are special. read more

We had to say goodbye to our 15.5 year old boy, Tanner, on 7/01/2024. He was a long standing member of our family, and Dr. Annette made that a point. Home With Dignity Gave us such wonderful and gentle care over the phone when scheduling the appointment. Dr Annette provided end of life care with dignity and compassion. She was calm, polite, empathetic, and spoke to us and our other dogs with kindness. She allowed us time alone to grieve after the procedure, and made sure to let us know not to rush. My heart aches to those who have to make this decision for their family, but you couldn't make a better choice than Home With Dignity when you do. read more

The Vet was very nice and took great care of our cat. We stayed with her until she passed and the Vet gave us all the time we needed and then took our cat to the crematorium. The entire process was straightforward, easy to understand, and helpful. The staff was very responsive and making the appointment was simple. read more

Dr Dan came to my home to help my pup and I. When facing the overwhelming moment I feared in regards to caring for my pet of 15 years, they luckily had an opening the same day. The intake and scheduling was very convenient and Dr Dan was communicative about his ETA. Having never done this in my home, I was apprehensive about the experience and aftermath. Dr Dan exuded a comfort while meeting and examining Lula, that honestly help put me at ease. Throughout the procedure he let me know what was happening. Afterwards he transported my pup to be cremated. I was oddly at peace after the experience and am thankful for their tender care. read more

I'm very thankful I was referred here. read more

I was absolutely devastated about the sudden condition of my little guy, Marley. I knew that I didn't want him in another sterile clinic and stressed out so I called Home with Dignity. The vet was absolutely wonderful, so warm, and caring! She explained everything step by step and gave me the time and space I needed with my little guy. She took Marley in her arms wrapped in his blanket and laid him in her car in a little bed. Though I was completely heartbroken and a mess, this was the most intimate and peaceful time I've ever had saying goodbye. I recommend Home with Dignity to everyone. Best ever! read more

They took care of our boy Neeko when he stroked out. Hard to deal with, and they were very caring and professional.

I cannot praise Home With Dignity enough. They were very understanding of our situation and handled it with care.

I called Home with Dignity after having a horrible experience over the phone with Peaceful Partings. I had called them for information since my dog was dying and he was the first dog I ever had. The lady at Peaceful Partings was so cold and rude and hung up on me! Patricia, the woman that answered the phone at Home with Dignity, was so kind. I was crying hysterically and she explained the process to me and showed so much empathy and compassion. I told her I was taking my Gizmo in to the emergency vet to see if I could spare his life and then would be calling back. I ended up euthanizing him there because I didn't want him in any more pain. So, while I can't speak to the doctors at Home with Dignity, I can say that their staff cares and shows compassion for a grieving pet parent. Thank you, Patricia! You will never know how much you comforted me. read more

It's been 35 minutes since our Zoe passed. It's been 10 minutes since Dr Hutchinson so very carefully swaddled our baby girl and placed her carefully into a prearranged warm and inviting space into his vehicle to transfer her remains to the aftercare facility. The funeral home in Hawaii didn't give this much respect and care in transporting my mother in law to the funeral home after she passed. These folks do Gods work. Our Zoe was able to die peacefully at home in her own bed without having to be transported to a clinic and being unnecessarily stressed at her end of life. This experience has provided my 10 year old daughter with as much reassurance that death doesn't have to be that scary. I cannot thank Dr Hutchinson and Home with Dignity enough. I wish I could give more than five stars. read more

I feel compelled to write this, even though I am grieving the loss of my dog. This service was invaluable, and Dr. Annette was so gentle and so immensely kind that it made the awfulness of losing our darling dog so much easier to get through. I would strongly advise any pet parent to take this route. Our dog was able to slip away into peace in the comfort of his own home, with all the people who loved him around him. The whole process was handled with such sensitivity and compassion that it made a terribly painful experience so much more bearable. read more

This has taken along time to write because we were so heartbroken to lose our little guy of 16 years. Jake has been dealing with herniated and leaking fluid in his lower back along with being born with a congenital deformity in both hips and luxating knees. High liver enzymes and chronic pain. We put off this decision for many reasons 1. Jake had become like a kid to us with all our kids moving out and 2. Just selfishly wanted him to be around longer, he was so much a part of our lives that we bought a travel trailer so that he could travel with us. After his 4th acute hernia toon within a 9 month time frame and his falling down and when ,really bad ,legs dragging , we decided that it wasn't fair to him. He had become frustrated not being able to follow us like he used do. He was in so many different meds and kidneys were starting to fail. We decided that every time we took him into the vet office Jake would start shaking and become anxious, so we decided to explore the options of going peacefully at home and being held and loved on by his family. We called Home With Dignity and spoke to Patricia first and had to hang up and call back later that day because of tears. She was super understanding and kind. We made a second call and Dr Humphries came out and I'd am evaluation on Jake and agreed that it was time to let him go. Even though we bawled like babies and we miss him fiercely we would go through these folks again. Not only was the vet patient and kind, he gave us the choice of peace and dignity in sending Jake home in peace. Afterwards we realized how much pain he had been in for a long time and he looked like he fell asleep. We highly recommend these people and would make the same choice again. Thank you. read more

Home With Dignity - Colorado Springs - Jacob Dwayne Colston - Veterinarians Near Me

I was in denial that the longest standing member of my little family, Dante, needed to be let go. At 14.5 years old with high liver values and failing kidneys, my selfishness (as one of the other reviewers also stated) was the only thing keeping me from making the call. I had been away on and off as essential personnel for the military during the COVID-19 year so I didn't get much time with him in the last part of his life so that made it especially difficult making the decision. But Dante's vet recommended Dr. Humphreys services and I couldn't be more thankful. Ms. Patricia was so empathetic and it took me 2 phone calls (also as the other reviewer stated) to finally confirm an appt. The rest of the day felt unreal watching the clock and trying to squeeze the last few hours in with him. When Dr. Humphreys arrived at my sweet Dante's home, he was very tender with our occasion. His calm, soft spoken voice and gentle handling made the last moments with my sweet Dante and our family peaceful and (as advertised) completely dignified. Dr. Humphreys made the experience feel very personal and sacred. I held my dear boy as he slipped away, let out my last howls of sadness over his body, and walked him out to the car in a cozy blanket where I gave my last kiss and words goodbye. Even after driving away, Dr. Humphreys correspondence was nothing but sympathetic and words of comfort. I could not thank them enough... read more

These guys were recommended by a friend. our labs were thirteen and a half and both having difficulties walking. Their quality of life had declined to the point one was just miserable. Sadly, of the two dogs, one was physically worse that her sister. Home with Dignity came in and Dr Hutchison was patient, kind and explained the whole process. He truly made a horrible situation bearable for our dog and the family. It was a very respectful process. I told him when he came for our other dog a month later, that I was happy to see him, but wished he wasn't needed. If you find yourself needing to transition a pet, call these guys. read more

When the difficult time came to say goodbye to our beloved Cookie, we knew we wanted her final moments to be as stress-free as possible. While her vet was amazing, Cookie always had anxiety when we took her into the office so we started looking at in-home services. We searched online and found some vets with good reviews but we knew Dr. Humphries at Home With Dignity would be the best option - the reviews on his website were comforting to us as we appreciated that others had a positive experience with him and when we told our vet who we'd chosen, she spoke highly of him. This was the hardest thing our family has had to do and Dr. Humphries was kind and gentle throughout the whole process. He walked us through the process and he gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye. It was comforting to see her go so peacefully and without any external environmental stress. Being at home also made us feel like we could take our time and carryout our feelings in private without having to be hold anything in. read more

We had to put our sweet old girl down, and after all the stressful visits she's had to the vet recently, I didn't want to do it there. I didn't want her upset before she left us. I contacted Home with Dignity and they had appointments that same day, or the next. We scheduled next day so we had more time for extended family to say goodbye. They were so kind on the phone and explained everything. I also liked that their website had a lot of information with all the options, fees and the process laid out clearly, because I was so distracted and emotional that stuff wasn't sticking in my brain. The vet was wonderful with our dog. She explained everything to us before she did it, making sure we were emotionally ready for what was next. Everything was handled exactly as they said it would be done on their website. I miss my girl so much but I was very glad that I could do this last thing for her, making sure she passed in peace with us holding her, surrounded with our love. read more

This is an amazing company with great compassion for you and more importantly your special furry friend. Dr. Hutchison came out on short notice and was unbelievably kind and compassionate. My wife and I are in the best place possible because we know we did right by our Aussie Dorian. The most peaceful process well explained and executed. You will only regret not letting them help you. Thank you to Dr. Hutchison, you made a world of difference to us and Dorian. Peace 2020. read more

Three words about Dr. Jim Humphries: Professional, Experienced and Compassionate. Okay, one more word: Punctual. I could go on but these reviews are meant to be succinct. You will not regret having him helping you through a difficult time. read more

Dr. Humphries is one of the most compassionate, sensitive humans I've ever met. My lionhearted boy was suffering. Dr. Humphries came to meet Tank & I under the promise of accessing Tank's condition without a foregone conclusion. He offered me an alternative plan for Tank's possible healing which gave Tank & I eight more weeks together. Though Tank didn't heal completely, he did improve for awhile. I am eternally grateful for that time. Tank's injuries multiplied. He was never going to enjoy the things he so loved doing. Dr. Humphries met with us again and eased Tank out of his suffering. I miss Tank ever so much though I am grateful to Dr. Humphries for his wisdom, kindness, empathy and compassion. The service he provides is so humane and so needed by those of us who love our non-human Beings enough to let them go. read more

At a time that we were facing one of the most difficult decisions- to say goodbye to our beloved 14 1/2 yo Weim, Dr Crane was a Godsend. His hushed voice, care and compassion was so calming. He didn't rush us. He helped us understand that our decision was the right one for our sweet old boy. He shared that it's natural to second guess the choice. We love our furrbabies so much- it's gut wrenching to have to make the choice but Home with Dignity helped us make it. read more

Making the decision to put down my 19 year old beloved kitty, Basia, was the most difficult choice I've ever had to make. At my wife's behest, I searched online for an in home euthanasia as I couldn't even consider taking her to the vet, which she hated, to die on a cold metal table. In my search, i ran across Home With Dignity. Their reviews almost seemed to good to be true - how could a business do this day in and day out without becoming jaded? I work in insurance injury claims - trust me when I say people can become calloused when they see the same thing every day. As I struggled with making a decision on whether or not I should go through with this, I found and read on Home with Dignity's website, The Covenant of Compassion. While it made me cry more than I thought I could, I KNEW that it was time for me to fulfill my vow to Basia - to not allow her to suffer. I wrote a lengthy email to them explaining my predicament - I just needed to make sure they knew how hard and also how important this moment was for me. My wife called them the next morning and scheduled an appointment that day with Dr. Hutchison. I appreciated that he communicated with us when he was on the way - after all, I was dreading his arrival more than anything. From the moment Dr. Hutchison arrived, he was understanding, kind and sympathetic. We sat down to talk before going to see Basia. I was surprised when Dr. Hutchison referenced my lengthy email and my comments in it as I didn't expect that he, as the vet, would take the time to read it (like I said, I'm jaded). We talked at length about where my kitty's health was and where things were headed with her chronic kidney failure. I was so scared that I was putting my baby down too soon - or too late. Dr. Hutchison put in easy terms for me to not only understand, but to appreciate as well. He took the time to review Basia's last blood work results and gave her a physical exam in the bedroom, where Basia was the most comfortable. Dr. Hutchison told me it was absolutely my decision but he felt strongly that the time was now as she would only suffer if we didn't. He also assured me that I hadn't waited too long and that it was clear to him that I had taken excellent care of her for the past 19 years. Those were words that I needed to hear at the time and I was thankful for his empathy. When I was ready, Dr. Hutchison explained each step and then proceeded, with the most compassionate and caring attitude. I'll leave out the details of the final moments, but I will say Dr. Hutchison was soft, caring and attentive. I so very much appreciated not being rushed or pushed into a decision during such an emotional time. My final act was to carry Basia out to his car so she could be cremated. Dr. Hutchison gave me the opportunity to treat Basia with dignity and as my family as we said our final goodbye. Making this decision to proceed is incredibly hard. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Hutchison and Home With Dignity for making this experience a tiny bit easier. Thank you for caring and helping my little furry friend, Basia. If you need them, you will never regret spending the money for this - or choosing Home With Dignity. read more

After having to make the difficult decision, my first call was to Home with Dignity. Dr. Crane came in a Sunday, he was very emphatic and patient. It was as peaceful as I could have hoped for. The entire process was professional and courteous. I would recommend anyone to them when that time comes. read more

We recently made the difficult decision to put our best friend Ella to sleep because she had aggressive cancer. It was very traumatic for us to do this because Ella was a member of our family - she grew up with our kids. We didn't want to have the procedure at the vet's office because Ella was terribly fearful in the vet's office on the best of days. We called Dr. Humphries. Dr. Humpries enabled us to get through this difficult time by coming to our home. In addition to all the things that you would want from someone providing a service (he is prompt, returned phone calls quickly, is very professional, etc.), he deeply cares for animals and cares for the people who take their pet "over the rainbow bridge". Ella passed quietly and contently with all of us petting her. I am glad Jim was there for us. read more

I wish I could give Dr. Humphries 100 stars. My husband and I made the decision to send my cat over the rainbow bridge. He took the time to talk to me on the phone and listen to all I said. To do something like this privately in my home was something I will cherish forever. It was quiet, my cat was not scared, he had his own blanket. My cat was so comfortable and Dr. Humphries was very professional and calming. He was so compassionate. I like how he came out himself and didn't send a worker. Feel free to message me on yelp if you would like more details about my experience. I can't say enough about the experience for both my family and pet. My favorite thing about Dr. Humphries is that it didn't seem like he was just doing his job coming to my house, he really wanted to be here and help us through the process. read more

Putting a pet to sleep is never easy, but if you ever have to, being at home is the best. Dr. Jim did an excellent job assessing my dog's situation and reassuring me that I had made the right decision. He was empathetic and professional. Thank you so much for letting me say goodbye this way. read more

Having to put our pet down is what we all dread, but we would like to give a great review for Home With Dignity. They were helpful on the phone as we were trying to work through our options and what was best for our cat Rain. We were losing our precious Rain and she needed help passing in the end. Dr. Crane was absolutely amazing with his level of care for Rain and understanding of losing a pet that is part of the family. He treated her like his own and that is the best you can ask for in this situation. Thank you Dr. Crane for helping us through this and making it as comfortable as possible for Rain. I am so glad we chose this at home service with such a great Veterinarian. Thank you. read more

We got up on a Saturday morning & our family made the painful decision to let our little Murray pass. But I had no idea where to take him on the weekend. My husband had to go to work that morning and we were concerned about me trying to drag three heartbroken children & a scared sick dog to the veterinarian..that we had only met twice. I did a Google search and found the most amazing and compassionate people to help me. Within maybe an hour, the doctor came into my living room & sat with myself and the children and explained the process so that we could all understand. I've been beside two other beloved pets as their owner let them pass. Those two experiances were in no way as peaceful as what I experianced with Mur. It was a tearfilled moment for all of us, but the most peaceful passing possible..curled up on our couch, holding him in his blankie & kissing him goodbye. Thank you for being the heartfelt compassionate people you are! Murray would have loved you :-) read more

called for services with my baby. paid for everything and when I went to pick up my baby they hadn't completed the paw print. which I had called and called again about to insure I was getting what I paid for. when Dr. H found out about the problem, I received an EMAIL. not even a phone call. they took a tragedy and made it worse. honestly it was a terrible mistake using this company. our hearts ache and the lack of compassion is appalling. luckily the 36$ they refunded me fixed everything!!! NOT! I hate this company, and all employees should be retrained to insure that they are not causing more pain then what a family is already going through if I could offer no stars I would. read more
