For obvious reasons, if you are reading this, I offer you my sympathy. It is not easy to bid…read morefarewell to a loved one. After 16 years, it was time for us to say goodbye to our beloved Biscuit. He had a malignant tumor and, after trying every available therapy, it was clear that his condition was terminal. We called Lap of Love and they were responsive, kind, understanding and thoughtful. They made the process of saying goodbye about saying goodbye and about doing what was best for our canine friend. Communication was excellent and the hospice veterinarian who came to our home was loving and empathetic. Most importantly, she reinforced that we were doing the right thing at the right time, in Biscuit's best interests. Lap of Love made it possible for us to focus on our dog's happiness and comfort during the final weeks of his life, and for us to focus on our own grief now that he has left us.

And we seek the thoughts of those we love and trust and who also love our (in this case) kitty. But even then, on the day, you need the added comfort of someone like Dr. Mike to provide that last bit of compassion and assurance to allow you to let go and do the right thing by that little (or big) animal that you love so much. This was my first experience with Lap of Love, but I know, not my last. Truly, thank you from me and Louie, for helping me do what had to be done.

I absolutely cannot tell you how thankful I am for Dr. Anika and the team at Lap of Love for giving…read moreour girl a peaceful send off with dignity as she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Our baby girl who was 12, suffered a terrible aspiration pneumonia and subsequent Megaesophagus a little over a week ago. After 6 nights in the ICU at UF Vet school and us trying everything from oxygen to NG tube with tube feeds to IV fluids & IV antibiotics, our baby couldn't overcome the odds. I contacted Lap of Love this past Wednesday when we decided to withdraw care and take her home for the best few days we could offer her. Every hour we had her home was spent loving her. I had made an appointment for this morning so my husband, myself, & her nanny could be here holding her together. Dr. Anika came to our home & was so kind and gave us time & answering our questions.I set up everything for billing on the first call to them so this morning thankfully was just a signature. We opted for private cremation and they handled the rest. We were allowed to have our sweet girl outside on our back porch with the fan on her just as she loved most. After some pain meds with muscle relaxer & sedative, she made us a beautiful paw cast that she left us. Our baby girl felt no pain and was so peaceful. The heartbreak of losing a fur baby is so incredibly hard but knowing this company exists to do it peacefully in our home, surrounded by our pack, gave us peace. We are so grateful for what the staff and doctors do for those who have chosen to let their fur babies go with dignity and in their own environment. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts to everyone whom we interacted with for calls and at home.
