Then to top it off THEY have tears in their eyes when you are leaving, and make sure to assure you and your children your pet is in good hands. 10/5 would recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Corinna Hanson08/01/2024Resting Pawz was wonderful to work with while dealing with the heartbreak of putting my dog to sleep. Highly recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Carmel Lee08/01/2024Saying goodbye to our beloved Suzi was devastating but having Chandra and David care for her with such kindness made the whole process manageable and in the end beautiful. They are wonderful humans who care for our fur babies as they do their own. They should be blessed a million times over for doing this difficult work with such Grace. Thank you for being there for me and my husband and for sweet Suzi.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Spenser Sanders23/12/2023The Resting Pawz crew was amazing. I couldn't imagine saying goodbye to my best girl in any other fashion. They were compassionate beyond words, and made one of the toughest days I've experienced a little bit easier. It was worth every penny to get to say goodbye in our own home where she felt comfortable and calm. I would absolutely recommend them to any pet owner faced with the decision of end of life care for a pet. I can't thank them enough.

They were so kind, caring and made this whole process so much easier. We're still not over losing our sweet-sweet Libby. i don't think we ever will be. However, I would highly recommend Resting Pawz, if the time comes when your pet needs some help getting to that Rainbow Bridge.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.rachael raftery17/12/2023One of the hardest things we’ve had to do, that being said we definitely made the right decision with resting paws.

Resting Pawz really made it easier for me. They were so kind and compassionate throughout the process. They gave me the time I needed to be alone with my old boy and let my other pets see what was going on. I have some beautiful items to honor my dog. Thank you for being so great through such a hard time.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Kristy Wake14/12/2023I called Chandra in tears after calling many other vets in the area where they said they could not see our dog until many hours later. Our dog had already been suffering for hours as her symptoms started at 2:30am. The situation was dire. Chandra was kind and empathetic, she was able to get us into a vet immediately and met us there to take our Dixie girl with her to be cremated. We now have a beautiful wooden urn and paw print to remember our sweet girl. Our family is so thankful to have found Resting Pawz. They know how to be kind, supportive, and professional during this extremely difficult time.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.JOE13/12/2023We had to put down our beloved Cooper on 12/8 23.
