Losing a pet is never easy, and having to say goodbye to my daughter's beloved bird--especially on…read moremy birthday--was incredibly difficult. From the moment I walked into Heavenly Paws Cremations, Donnia made an emotional time so much more bearable. She welcomed me with warmth and compassion, sitting me down to explain all my options with patience and care. They have a beautiful selection of urns displayed in a separate room, allowing me to choose something special. The entire process was handled with professionalism, promptness, and clear communication, which I truly appreciated during such a tough moment. I was even able to get a footprint, a handprint, and some feathers, which meant so much to me and my daughter as a way to remember our sweet bird. When I received the remains, they were placed in a lovely velvet bag, showing the attention to detail and respect they have for both pets and their owners. I cannot recommend Heavenly Paws Cremations enough for anyone going through the loss of a pet. They made the process seamless and dignified, and their quality products and compassionate service made all the difference. Thank you, Donnia, for your kindness--you truly helped make a heartbreaking experience a little easier.

Furthermore their adoption process is not what it used to be: now very racist, prejudiced, elitist, jaded and unfair. And this doesn't sit well, to those that have supported, adopted, volunteered w/ them. I personally have supported & my family donated SUBSTANTIALLY to the shelter in the past. But NO MORE! Insult to injury is they don't even have a working A/C in the shelter at present in this brutal heat- ALL SUMMER; so what kind of care is that!?!? (Where is the money going!?!?! Seems like an audit is in order.) Beyond disappointed at how they 'run' this shelter-into the ground. This is why they won't allow visits anymore. Just read some of the other less than stellar reviews- hidden. Fix the A/C with the donations and miss me with the demigod nonsense you're using to discriminate against great homes while the dogs lie in wait- in unbearable heat unnecessarily- for an epiphany (from idiot savants) when there are great families ready willing and able to adopt so you don't have to Euthanize. Never again will we support And we've donated thousands.

We were concerned that she was suffering and convinced ourselves that a trip to the vet would end up with euthanasia. For this reason, we decided a home passing was best. Dr. Zakai evaluated our darling Bonnie and determined she still had quality of life. The weight lifted off our shoulders and we immediately made an appointment with our local vet. I am extremely grateful to Home with Dignity and Dr. Zakai. He was so kind and caring, answered all of our questions and put our minds at ease. Our girl is 21 years old, and her time will eventually come. When that time is upon us, we will definitely call Home with Dignity. The compassion shown to us today was beyond anything we could have imagined.

It's been about a month since our experience with Anne Arundel Veterinary Emergency Hospital, and…read moreI've been wanting to share this. Our anxious 9-year-old dog, Bubba, had been sick for about a day and a half--vomiting, not eating, and not drinking water. At one point, he seemed to be improving, but around 5 a.m. on Easter morning, he was panting and pacing. We knew we had to take him to the ER. We were especially anxious because of our past traumatic vet visits, but we called ahead and were told they were still working through overnight patients and to bring him in so they could monitor him. Despite how weak he was--we had been carrying him up and down three flights of stairs--he insisted on walking into the ER himself. They took him to triage right away, and after a few hours (less than we expected), we were brought back to a room. Dr. Fleury came in, asked thoughtful questions, and recommended additional testing. We shared our past experiences and anxiety, and she was incredibly empathetic and reassuring. She made it clear that she wanted this experience to be different from the negative ones we had before--and she truly followed through on that. She suggested we go home while tests were being run. A couple of hours later, she called with an update: while most results looked normal, they found fluid in his abdomen and a mass near his trachea. She explained that an ultrasound could provide more clarity, but it wouldn't be available until the next day. We could either bring him home or admit him overnight. Although we had never left him before, we chose to admit him so he could be monitored and asked if we could see him again first. She immediately said yes. When we returned, the hospital was much busier, but we were brought fairly quickly to a quiet, private room that seemed away from the noise of other dogs. Dr. Fleury reviewed the X-rays with us, and it was clear things were serious. When she brought Bubba in, we could see he had declined--his belly was distended, his eyes were glazed, and he seemed uncomfortable and restless. Dr. Fleury stayed with us, explaining that even after consulting with colleagues, they couldn't determine the exact cause without more testing. She also understood our concern about leaving him overnight, especially if his condition worsened. We were both overwhelmed, and she handled the situation with incredible compassion. After spending time with Bubba, we came to the heartbreaking realization that he was suffering, and the dog we knew wasn't really there anymore. It was the hardest decision we've ever had to make, but we knew it was time. We spoke with Dr. Fleury again and asked her to be honest about his chances. She explained that while more testing was possible, there were no guarantees, and he could continue to decline. Through tears, we told her we didn't want him to suffer any longer. She gently agreed it was likely the best decision and supported us fully. From there, everything was handled with such care. The staff gave us time, space, blankets, and quiet guidance through the process. When the time came, Dr. Fleury and a vet tech sat with us on the floor. My wife held Bubba, and we were both there with him in his final moments. It was peaceful, and we were able to say goodbye with dignity and love. Afterward, we were given as much time as we needed and were able to leave quietly through a side door. Later, we received a handwritten condolence card from Dr. Fleury, which meant so much to us. Losing Bubba was devastating, but the compassion, patience, and humanity shown by Dr. Fleury and the entire team made an unbearable experience feel as gentle as it possibly could have been. She set out to ensure this would not be another traumatic vet experience for us--and despite the heartbreaking outcome, she did exactly that. Our experience was nothing short of exceptional. We are deeply grateful we ended up here. While we hope we don't need emergency care again anytime soon, we know exactly where we would go and who we would trust.

She did tell us it was a busy night (when we got there--it was overwhelming to see the various cases they were dealing with), and said even if we don't decide to wait at their facility we should take her to be seen. We decided to visit this emergency clinic anyway, and I'm very glad they handled her with so much caution and care. The vet assistant who triaged us came back multiple times with updates after our puppy was taken back (~1hr) and thanked us for our patience. It's important to note that while we were waiting with (and for) our puppy, multiple dogs came in on stretchers. Dr. McCullen was incredibly thorough and reassuring, while also being practical and rational.. we appreciated the extra step in providing an estimate for our services to that point. Albeit our case was not as severe or life-threatening as the others we saw, we still feel like we made the right decision coming in that night and I'm thankful our puppy was in the care of the right members of staff. I know they did their best with what they were dealt with and I'm very appreciative for their kindness and compassion. Our puppy is doing just great now.
