Very caring and compassionate in our sad time. I highly recommend them. They gave us space when we needed it.

It's the hardest call and worst wait, but when Dr. Tiffany arrived, we felt an overwhelming sense of peace. Our precious golden retriever, Dug, told us it was time and we were determined to let him go on his terms...lying in the grass, eating a bowl of meatballs with Dr. Tiffany lovingly caring for him and us. Our sincere gratitude and appreciation for her help on an incredibly difficult day. read more

If you ever find yourself facing one of the hardest moments a pet owner can experience, I cannot recommend Loving Hands Veterinary Services and Dr. Tiffany enough. During an incredibly heartbreaking time for our family, they showed a level of care, compassion, and understanding that went far beyond what we expected. They truly understood that Nala was not just a pet, but a deeply loved member of our family, and they treated her with dignity, gentleness, and genuine respect every step of the way. What stands out most is the extra care they took to make sure we were able to bring our baby girl home for Christmas. That kindness meant more to us than words can fully express, and it's something I will always be grateful for. In one of the most painful moments of our lives, Loving Hands Veterinary Services and Dr. Tiffany provided comfort, compassion, and grace. I'm incredibly thankful for them and the kindness they showed our family when we needed it most. read more

The Most Wonderful, Most Compassionate Service This is our second venture in having to put one of our "fur children" to rest and having experienced Tiffany and her team, could not say enough. From the moment they entered our house until the end, so loving, so gentle, so understanding-- both for us and for our little guy Tiffany and her team helped us say goodbye to our Bailey, slowly and gently in the comfort of his bed and his home. Every step of the process was thoroughly explained and we were allowed whatever time we needed to be with him and say our goodbyes. Tiffany and Loving Hands, thanks so much for being everything we could have hoped for in this most difficult process. read more

They were caring and sensitive through this difficult time. We greatly appreciated their kindness.

Tiffany is an incredibly caring person. My sweet little 14 year old dog had been suffering, so I had to make the hardest decision a pet owner has to make. Peanut hated the Going to the vet, so this was the right choice. Once I spoke to Tiffany I felt like we were in, loving hands. She arrived and explained how each step would go and gave up time with our sweet girl. She died peacefully in my arms. My little love was handled with care even after her passing. I was so so sad and grief stricken. I got a nice card from Tiffany a couple days later. And a cute paw print that I'll frame with my little Peanut's photo. In the most saddest of times, it was a peaceful ending. read more

She had our sweet boy Max's ashes hand delivered along with a paw print and we will get the same for our handsome boy Yo. If you are in need of these services I highly recommend calling her. read more

cancer is a bitch. Luna, our eight-year-old Jindo mix, was diagnosed with mass cell tumors in early December. the cancer was particularly aggressive, and the surgery team (at VCA) could only remove 90% of the tumor so chemo and radiation were not viable treatment options. anybody who's loved a pet half as much as her packmates loved Luna can understand the difficult decision we had to make. Dr. Stephanie Schneider and her nurse might be the kindest, most caring people ever. Loving Hands Vet Services should be called Loving Hearts. thank you for your patience and support. there aren't enough stars in the sky for the life you helped to the kindest, most loving end possible. on Hemmingway's desk in Havana, there's a framed note that says : If you have one true friend, you are wealthy beyond riches. if you have two true friends, you are the luckiest man in the world. if you have three true friends, you don't know what friendship is. Monday evening, the life of one of my two true friends came to an end. eventually, I'll stop crying and remember to treasure the time we had together. I love you, Luna. I always have. I always will. thanks for sharing your much too short life with us. read more

Our cat, Bandit, was very sick and we were bringing her home from the pet hospital for in-home euthanasia. Dr. Tiffany was very responsive. She called me soon after I left a message, and was very communicative throughout our dealings. She was empathetic, kind, compassionate, and also had encouraging words that there was a possibility that Bandit would improve once she was back at home, so if we needed to cancel or re-schedule her in-home services, she gave us a window of time to do that. Bandit did improve to the point that it wasn't time yet, and when I called to cancel, again Dr. Tiffany was so kind and genuinely happy for us. Bandit has continued to improve each day. Dr. Tiffany has our deepest gratitude, and when Bandit's time does come, we would want no one else by her side but her. read more

I would like to thank Dr. Tiffany for her compassion and sense of urgency when it came to my handsome boy, Aspen.

We are so thankful that there are people like you out there -- and who do this difficult service. Thank you, as well, for the lovely greeting card. read more

An early kind phone call consultation with Dr. Tiffany Palozzi and I knew we found the right practice. Her partner Dr. Stephanie Schneider and nurse Kim came to us. Our 16yr old schnoodle Gaby had been living with congestive heart failure for 23 months. Then a cardiac event overnight left her panting, hunching, she was in pain. Early next morning she looked into our eyes. She could barely walk. We knew she was ready to leave. And we promised no more scary trips to the vet. Dr. Schneider and nurse Kim were so kind, compassionate, caring, loving, and considerate. We are so grateful our girl was home, on her favorite blankee with her fav toys and us by her side. We gave her a million kisses. Goodbye sweet girl. You had a big life. Thank you so much to truly Loving Hands. We will be forever grateful to you. Gabrielle, December 3, 2005 - March 3, 2022 read more

I had what I think is a unique situation with my dog. He wasn't in any pain, and was eating and drinking normally, but blood results showed low red blood cell levels. I called Loving hands as my pup's lethargy increased and his breathing changed that morning. Loving Hands was very honest and told me to call my vet to confirm that my pup was in danger and needed euthanasia sooner than I thought. It was such honest and compassionate advice that you don't expect from people anymore. I opted to say goodbye to my pup soon after the call. Any business that's willing to lose business in order to help a pet and family in need to do the right thing deserves more than five stars. Thank you Loving Hands! read more

We just lost our precious doxie Honey yesterday 11/19/2020. Loving Hands does an amazing job, I would never euthanize any other way but at home. Tiffany and Dr. Schneider are two wonderful women that care about your pet and you. Once Honey passed they asked us to let our other two Dachshunds out. They placed Honey in her blanket on her bed on the patio for them to sniff and they did. Penny was Honey's begging buddy, Penny spent the most time sniffing and checking Honey out. Both Penny and Megan feel somethings just not right today. I know they both miss Honey. Thank you Dr. Schneider and Tiffany for loving pets so much that you provide this service. We will have Honey back in a couple of weeks with her paw print. read more

Dr. Tiffany Palozzi and her team are incredibly compassionate during a time of great difficulty for their clients. She and her assistant helped our sweet old Eskimo cross over the rainbow last week. Their incredible kindness and care during the process far exceeded our expectations. They treated our precious little guy as if he were their own. We are so grateful for them. They even sent a hand written, personalized card that arrived a couple days later that contained the sweetest poem. Loving Hands is the perfect name for this amazing service. Thank you, Dr. Tiffany. read more

I am fortunate to have known Dr Stephanie Schneider for over 15 years. First as a vet tech, then a veterinarian. I was impressed when she made the decision to open a mobile practice dedicated to in-home euthanasia services. Dr Schneider is one of the kindest, most loving people I know. When it was time for my beloved cat to cross the Rainbow Bridge, there was no question that it would be at home so her fur brother could be present to understand what was happening and say goodbye. Dr Schneider and Nurse Jenny were gracious about fitting us in quickly, explained the process and were considerate about giving us time to say goodbye throughout the process. They service a great deal of San Diego. I cannot think of a more humane way to celebrate and honor the life of a beloved fur baby. I am so grateful to Dr Schneider, Nurse Jenny and Loving Hands Vets. read more

This was our second time having to say goodbye to a pet, and this went so much better than our last experience. We were able to make a same day appointment, which was what we really needed for the circumstances at the time. The options for what to do and how to handle after were clear and not overwhelming - they simplified the process versus how we saw some others handle it.. When they came over, they explained the process very clearly. We didn't feel surprised by anything along the way. They were very kind, loving and respectful. They gave us plenty of time within the process to spend time with our little gal. The entire process was very peaceful. Afterwards they delivered the ashes, which was a touch that not everyone gives. They also sent a card and gave to charity in our pup's name. This is still hard to write about months later, just because overall it is a very hard thing to go through. But Loving Hands was a huge help along the way and we were really grateful for them. read more

If I could give ten stars I would. My Maggie took a really bad turn over the weekend after being diagnosed with lymphoma. Our vet said, we would have another three months to a year with her but it was only two weeks. We had rescued her as a senior and we only got to have her for a year and a half. Not long enough at all. She was the sweetest little lovey. I called and left a message with Loving Hands on Sunday and Dr. Tiffany called first thing on Monday morning when they were back in the office. I just started to cry and asked if she could come right now and she said she was on her way. She was so kind and so compassionate and understanding. She spoke gently and shared everything that she was doing. She gave us time to say goodbye and just was completely respectful and tenderhearted throughout the whole process. This is the second time in as many years that I have had to unfortunately had to say goodbye to my fur-baby and have used Loving Hands. I would highly recommend them. They are absolutely wonderful at what they do. read more

We were met with genuine concern and warm hugs. The communication on what to expect was excellent.

There was so much honor in how this was handled, both on the human and dog side. read more

Used Dr. Tiffany last December. She and her nurse were calm, supportive and loving. Couldn't have asked for more. She was also less expensive and more flexible on timing than the other two at-home pet euthanasia services I spoke to. And, in a phone consultation a few days prior to the at-home visit, she provided a lot of helpful and detailed information about the process. read more

If you're reading this, I'm sorry. Saying goodbye to a loved one is never easy. But know you are doing to right thing relieving your pet of any pain they may be experiencing. Having said that, we are so grateful and thankful for Tiffany, Mariah, and the whole team at Loving Hands who provided caring and compassionate help getting our dog to peacefully pass over to the great beyond. Our dearest puggle, Pika, had developed a nasty mast cell tumor that had metastasized rapidly, and was finally negatively impacting her quality of life. We knew it was time and called Loving Hands where we found a sweet voice to talk to. They gave us a run down of the process and quickly booked us an at home visit for that afternoon. Upon arrival, Tiffany and Mariah were as understanding and loving as possible, and gave us an overview of what they were about to do again. Throughout the process they gave us plenty of alone time to cherish with Pika, and were gentle every step of the way. They made sure she was comfortable throughout, as she got to stay in her bed with her favorite toy and blanket the whole time. They were kind, nurturing and supportive of us grieving parents and gently walked us through the whole way. They hand delivered her paw print a few days later which we now lovingly display next to pictures of her. We can't thank them enough for helping us say our final goodbye in a humane way, and hope you find solace with your pet soon. read more

I can't possibly express my gratitude to Dr. Tiffany Palozzi. My four year old boxer was diagnosed six weeks ago with Stage V T-cell lymphoma. I felt the difference in her yesterday morning and didn't think she'd make it another day. I called the place I had used before and they were booked. I called Loving Hands and Dr. Palozzi was able to come to our home and give my baby a beautiful and compassionate passing. I am so grateful to Dr. Palozzi. read more

I cannot say enough about Loving Hands veterinary services. Our 17 year old dachshund Molly unfortunately had a seizure on Friday night that she was an unable to recover from. We took her to our vet on Saturday morning and he confirmed that we needed to put her down. I called Stephanie at Loving Hands and she came the same day at 2 o'clock. At home with our children and my husband we peacefully put Molly to rest. The professionalism from Stephanie and her assistant was superb. The experience was so thoughtful and peaceful and respectful. I will never go through this process with another pet any other way. read more

The lovely team that came out to our home for our euthanasia was truly amazing. They made an incredibly hard death as easy, peaceful and caring as possible. Putting down a young dog that's dying is never, ever easy and they made it somewhat feasible. The card they send afterwards, and the special commemorative items really made a big impact on my closure of losing Jackson. Thank you loving hands for your heartfelt condolences. read more

There are not enough stars for Dr. Tiffany. Saying goodbye to our furry family member was so very difficult, but Dr. Tiffany was more than gentle, comforting and truly accommodating. She was genuinely interested in our history with our husky. She explained every step and helped us to feel at ease. We felt she was there to comfort and bring peace to our pet. Letting our husky go at home was the best decision. This is not what any pet owner wants to go through, but it is so heartwarming to know that someone with such a big heart such as Dr. Tiffany is available when this hard decision must be made. There really are not enough words to express our gratitude and awe of Dr. Tiffany. read more
