Gentle Goodbyes Boise, Idaho

I was so grateful to have found a vet to come to the house so our senior kitty could pass at home with us. We found the doctor and his assistant to be so kind, gentle and respectful to us, as well as to our cat. I am so thankful for their service.

So grateful to Gentle Goodbyes. Such a difficult time for us. Dr. Witt and Raylene were professional, but so very compassionate to our sweet Ella and to us.

The team was kind and very comforting. My wife and I highly recommend Gentle Goodbyes. Thank you.

Saying goodbye to a remarkable companion, a loving and trusting dog, is the hardest thing to endure. Gentle Goodbyes was a Godsend, professional, compassionate and caring, we were able to say goodbye to our Rylee in her own bed with lots of petting and kisses from her people. This is the ONLY way to do this. Thanks for all the special touches, candle, card and options for cremation etc. We appreciate you so much!

The love and compassion from the vet and assistant that came out to our home for our little fur baby was outstanding. They were so comforting to our cat and us made the whole ordeal a bit easier to swallow. After our pet passed they lit a candle, placed an artificial red rose next to it, made her paw prints, (extra but worth it) put the prints inside a frame with the rainbow bridge poem on it and a little purple pouch (sash) with her hair in it. I had posted this experience on our local neighborhood app and was inundated with 99.9% positive feedback about Gentle Goodbyes. There were 15 people out of the hundred that used them. ALL were satisfied. The love we have for our pets is endless. Having them euthanized at home, in their own environment and being held to the very end is the way to do it. To do this in a vet hospital is more traumatic and stress on our babies and us. Thank You Gentle Goodbyes.

This was a very difficult day for us. Gentle goodbyes vet and assistant showed up on time, they we very friendly and very professional. The process was thoroughly explained so we knew what to expect. We were in no way at all rushed, and after everything was done they politely asked if there was anything else they could do for us, and then quietly left us to greive. I would highly recommend this service. Thank you for taking such care with our Bailey.

They were so very kind to help Gracie on her journey and made the terrible day a little bit easier. Thank you so much ❤

Gentle Goodbyes, I really have too many good things I can say about them that it is hard to summarize and really put the feelings into what I want to convey. It was the most difficult decision I have ever had to make to walk my baby over the rainbow bridge, but ultimately I am glad I chose Gentle Goodbyes. This was my first home euthanasia. They were right there next to me the whole time explaining what was happening, and what to expect while I held my boy close. While my heart was shattering they made the environment peaceful and their presence helped calm me and give me further confirmation that I was making the right choice for my baby. They wrapped him up, and held him with the upmost care as they took him from my home. They gave me some of his fur, his paw prints, and told me what to expect next when he returns to me and all of my options. Should I have to make this difficult decision again with my other babies, I know Gentle Goodbyes will be where I go. Thank you all for helping me give the best most peaceful last moments with us. I will forever be grateful for your care.

Dr. Laura and Tanna (vet tech, forgot her name, sorry!!!) helped facilitate the passing of our little Buddy today. They were both professional, warm, understanding, and just good people during a very emotional time for the family. We have nothing but praise for Gentle Goodbyes and the staff they work with. A stark contrast to the cold, unwelcoming environment we experienced during the passing of our last pup. Thank you Gentle Goodbyes.

Care and kindness at a safe place. All at a very sensitive moment.

DR Savanah was wonderful yesterday. She and he assistant were so kind and took such good care of Chubbie Bear. I highly recommend Gentle Goodbyes .

Very kind, they made an awful day easier.

Words can not express the warmth and love we felt from this company. My sister lost her dog/best friend, and was hurting but from the moment they walked into the door, nothing but loved walked into the door. They were truly heartfelt with what they were doing. The pain of losing a beloved pet was a little easier with the heart of this place. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart through my sister.

To be completely honest I was scared. We are new to the area. I was scared of how my BFF would be treated by people we didn't know. After talking with Terra at Gentle Goodbyes and she kindly answered my questions and concerns we made the dreaded appointment. Laura and Terra were so very thoughtful, kind, compassionate and gentle with our boy and us. They made this horribly tough day as easy as it possibly could be . RIP RYLEE

Last week, on a Sunday, Dr. Huter and Brandy helped us guide Paddy to her final day. She had been fighting Pituitary Cushings and Arthritis for close to two years and was almost 14 years old. There was nothing harder than to say goodbye to her but the service that Gentle Goodbyes gives with care and compassion is invaluable.

We made the decision and needed support on a Saturday. They graciously worked to take care of everything. Our broken hearts were eased a bit knowing that she was being genuinely cared for at her last moments.

My service dog had been ill and though responding to treatment initially he suddenly went downhill and I already knew there was nothing more that could be done. I had to make a quick decision as he started to suffer badly. I called Gentle Goodbyes and they came within a few hours. They are kind and compassionate and made the experience of saying goodbye at home as positive as possible. I highly recommend them. Thank you all so much. Karen and Walla.

They showed such compassion, from the moment the vet and her assistant said hello to them saying goodbye. Having to make the decision to call is hard enough, but if I ever have to reach this decision again, I will call here. Crossing the rainbow bridge surrounded by his family, on his own bed, was priceless to us.

Gentle Goodbyes has helped me say goodbye to two senior rescues, and they are a godsend. Being able to send my fur babies off to Dog Heaven in familiar surroundings and with such great love is priceless.

What an amazing service. Losing my main man was one of the most difficult things I have gone through in my life and gentle goodbyes made it so much easier. They come to your home and walk you through the process. I will say though, be prepared for questions when the vets arrive to your house. This was difficult for me as I was so emotional about losing my best boy. They will ask all the same questions the lady asks when you make your appointment, do you want a foot print, do you want the ashes sent back to you, etc.

Wouldn't come into house, only in cold garage or outside ????

They were so kind and gentle.

Such an amazing company with caring and loving staff. I'm so glad I used this service and could be in the comfort of my home when I had to say goodbye to my pup.

I can not recommend Dr Cheryl highly enough. With the greatest kindness and competence she helped my beloved dog pass with dignity, lying on her bed and surrounded by the people that loved her. Dr Cheryl understood how heavy it was for us and held that space while she deftly performed the procedure. She came to our rescue. Thank you again Dr Cheryl!

Our family would like to personally thank Gentle Goodbyes; especially Dr. Alayna Huter & her assistant Erica for their professionalism and compassion during our time of sadness. They came to our house and we were able to hold a very private and personal service for our dog Howie of 18 years. He was suffering & they allowed us to grieve and give our last loves & goodbyes to him. We cannot thank them enough for their caring & thoughtfulness. Dr. Huter delivered his ashes to our home today. RIP Howie!!! You are missed & loved by all!

Everything happened real fast and they were able to come when we needed them and they were sensitive and compassionate.

I am so grateful to Gentle Goodbyes. They helped our beloved Ivy cross over the rainbow Bridge. They know what they are doing and the transition was smooth. They took care of everything.

Everything was right upfront and handlled in a sensitive manner. Everyone seemed very professional

We called Gentle Goodbyes when we realized our sweet Maggie was struggling. She was nearly 14 years old and had some health issues. Gentle Goodbyes are true to their name. We were able to allow Maggie to pass peacefully in the presence of familiar surroundings. We would highly recommend them. It's certainly a difficult time making the decision that it was time, but thier gentleness helped ease our heavy hearts. Very grateful for this service.

The hardest thing we have to do is say goodbye to our fur babies. Zoey was a different kind of dog from the beginning. The runt of a litter of 8 and the only survivor. She was quirky and needed special medical attention her whole life. But she was a wonderful dog, who lost the use of her hind legs. Because of Covid, no vet in town would allow us to be with her as she passed. "Gentle Goodbyes" came to the rescue. Zoey wasn't afraid and she gently crossed over into the next life. Dr Pearson and her assistant Brandy were delightful. I can't say thank you enough.
