Dr Janine Cumming (BVSc BSc)

Your Compassionate Home Euthanasia Vet

Hi, I'm Janine,  I live on a life style block in Canterbury with my family, and our various animal friends. During my down time I love to meet with friends and family, ride our horses and go for walks with our dogs.

I am a veterinarian with over 20 years in the industry. Fun fact...  I am also fully qualified in animal chiropractic and divide my professional time seeing dogs, cats and horses for chiropractic care and also being there for people like you, that need support and guidance during this difficult time.

We are here for you and your loved pet with a mobile euthanasia service that allows you to prioritise your pets comfort and well-being, ensuring a peaceful and dignified farewell in the comfort and familiar setting of your own home.

Together, we can ensure that your pet's final moments are filled with love, peace, and dignity. 

Answers to Common Questions

Find answers to commonly asked questions about pet home euthanasia below. 

Why choose Loved Pets At Home Pet Euthanasia over a traditional veterinary clinic?

At-home pet euthanasia offers a more peaceful and familiar environment for both the pet and the owner, allowing for a more personalised and compassionate experience.  It allows a stress-free environment, it is perfect for animals that suffer from anxiety with vet visits, or those that are no longer very mobile. It also means that we have the time to go at your pace unlike a traditional veterinary clinic, we are there for your pet, your family and yourself, and we go at the best pace for you.
