Compassionate Care Oregon City: Home Pet Euthanasia & Pet Cremation

I’m not even sure what words to use to describe the experience. I’ve never been so devastated and had people be so kind, considerate and professional. Remi was a special dog. He was supposed to be put down because no one would adopt him. He was a handful to say the least but the most loyal and protective dog I’ve ever known. Having the ability for him to pass at home, comfortable and so well cared for was a blessing. Thank you just doesn’t quite cut it. We were extremely lucky to have stumbled upon this company in our time of need. Dr Josie, thank you for taking care of Remi and (as important) for taking care of all of us. You were exactly what we needed.

Even though we are heartbroken after losing our best friend, it's impossible for me to sing the praises of this organization loudly enough. Just knowing that we could count on Compassionate Care at any time gave us confidence that we could do right by our beloved Manny in his final weeks. Yesterday was exceptionally hard on all of us; we lost a cherished member of our family. But Dr. Casey Choat was a paragon of an empathetic professional. We will be eternally grateful for her support in Manny's last moments. This was never going to be easy, but we feel so lucky that this was the way Manny was able to go: in our lap, at home, with love pouring out from everyone including Casey. Thank you all for doing this most difficult work. It makes a tremendous difference.

This whole experience was mind alteringly life changing. Having to say goodbye your pet is the absolute worst, but Dr. Lori Gibson was able to make the terribly sad situation into something beautiful. I cannot thank Dr. Lori Gibson enough for all the love, care, and compassion she showed us. She really validated our emotions and wants during the whole process, and was very clear about the procedure. We had to put our 17yr old dog, Coco, to sleep. Dr. Gibson was able to diagnose the cause of Coco's passing, ensure she wasn't in pain & was comfortable, which gave us so much closure. She also gave us plenty of time with Coco, and only went into the final step when we (or Coco) were ready. Not only was she compassionate to us humans, but also to our other pets through the process, by ensuring they were also able to say goodbye to Coco. I cannot thank this wonderful service and Dr. Gibson enough. Having Coco comfortably pass away in the comfort of her home, in the arms of her dad (my husband), we couldn't ask for anything more perfect. Then, to make everything even more better, she was tranfered into a cute basket with a brand new blanket provided by them. That's how she was transported to the crematory. I'd like to add that they own their crematory, so they guarantee the ashes you receive truly is your beloved pet. Not having to worry about that is great. 1000/10 would recommend. Thank you so much ❤️

It feels odd leaving a review about something so sad.... but, Carrie felt like family. She was incredibly caring, compassionate and seemed almost equally effected by our loss. She explained every step and gave us all the time and privacy to experience and process everything that was happening. She handled our guy with all the care and love that we would have. The entire experience felt right. I felt ok, letting him go to her, having her drive away with him. I trusted her with our most precious family member. The whole experience ended with a much needed hug, before she left.

Despite how horrible it was to have to say goodbye, Josie made things easier for us and for our buddy. She even suggested a way to help our other dog accept his loss and grieve in his own way. I don't know if it's anything other than dog psychology or if it's even remotely accurate but it felt right. She was amazing. And while I'm not looking forward to our next meeting I hope that she's the one that helps us when it does happen again.
