Lap of Love Veterinary Hospice Seattle, Washington

Thank you, The Good Life. Our beloved Maggie's last time was humane and dignified. Dr. David was empathetic and professional, explaining every step in the process. We are mourning today but are so thankful Maggie could spend her last day at home where she felt loved.

Dr. Ashleigh is amazing. She's kind, compassionate and provides the reassurance that the decisions you're making are being made out of love. She's helped us with the passing of two of our pets and both times made super hard days just a little bit easier. I'm so grateful for Dr. Ashleigh and the service she brings, doing this at our home was 100% better for us and our pets.

I needed to make a same-day call to give my buddy a comfortable and dignified end. He would have been terrified at a vets office and deserved more. Dr. Jason helped me and my wife carry the weight of that necessitated call, and we are truly appreciative for a loving ending for a true lion among pets. While our world is darker today we go forward knowing we did the right thing. Thanks

This is the hardest thing to go through but Dr. Ashleigh and Lap of Love is an amazing opportunity to say good bye with less stress on both you and your beloved pet. There was no strain to load my Missy into her crate for the last time, drive to sit in a sterile room and say good bye. I was able to hold my Cat one last time, without her being in pain and give her the love she deserved right to the end. Dr. Ashleigh was so kind and gentle, what a hard job to do. She took my Missy and tucked her in so sweetly into a basket to take her away. It gave me closure that I know I wouldn't have gotten in the office. Thank you so much Lap Of Love and Dr. Ashleigh for being so amazing!!!

Dr. Suzanne came to our home when our beautiful lab Buddy passed. Words can't describe how grateful we were to have her assist us with final preparations for our baby. She was incredibly kind and compassionate and made the process as easy as possible for us. We are so grateful to her for the love and care she gave while we prepared Buddy for his final departure. I highly recommend Lap of Love's services.

This is the second time we have used Lap of Love Seattle - the first about three years ago for my 18 year old Siamese mix, and most recently, for my husband's 20 year old shorthair tortie. I cannot recommend Lap of Love enough to pet owners having to make the heartbreaking decision to provide end of life services to a beloved companion. Both doctors were compassionate and empathetic, and provided the most gentle and loving care to our sweet, elderly kitties. The procedure was explained thoroughly before the process was started, and we were given room to ask lots of questions. Having our pets pass peacefully at home with the help of such professional and caring doctors was worth every penny. We felt supported with the very difficult choice we had to make, which took a weight off our shoulders knowing we were making the right decision in both situations. Saying goodbye to a cherished pet is extremely painful, but we can be sure their passing will be handled with respect and love when we call on Lap of Love for their services.

Eddie, my puppy, was with us for 18 years. My dog's spirit lived with us in true happiness!! I am thankful that he could move on to his new life from his favorite yard on a beautiful sun shining day. Thank you to doctor K for making it a little easier to say good bye.

With the health of our senior dog deteriorating rapidly, we were scrambling to find somebody to help us help him. I left on online web request in the evening and received both and phone call and email response first thing the following morning (by 7am). My interactions with Lap of Love staff was compassionate and caring. They even held an appointment for us while I consulted with the rest of our family. Unfortunately, the first available appointment was not soon enough given our situation, but I would not hesitate to contact Lap of Love the next time we are in this position.

Everyone we spoke with took the time to help us through the process in a very professional and compassionate manner. We love our little paw print memento too ????

Dr. Chrissy from Lap of Love came to our home to help with the transition for our much loved dog. The whole experience was obviously heartbreaking and overwhelming for our family, but Dr. Chrissy was just so special. She explained everything slowly, and treated all of us (including our dog) with such empathy. Being at home was much less stressful for all of us. I highly recommend their services.

I cannot mention enough how loving and professional they were. From the moment my girlfriend called them and Melissa at the call center answered, she was very thoughtful and consoling in prepping us for the worse. Today Dr. Chrissy came over to help us through all this, she was sweet as ever and helped out little boy Bugs to his eternal life. We're forever grateful for Lap Of Love, they truly do care ???????? Best wishes from Chand & Jaime, thank you for taking care of our little Buggy ????

Dr. Ashleigh made a heartbreaking day so much less painful than it could have been. It can be difficult, if not shameful, to even discuss euthanasia for behavioral issues. We never felt judged for making the decision we knew was best for Bear. We felt reassured at every step. Bear was put to rest so peacefully and we will always thank Lap of Love and Dr. Ashleigh for that.

We said goodbye to our sweet pug yesterday. Lap of Love was a godsend and Dr. Jason was wonderful. Losing our dog was always going to be awful, but it was made more manageable through the care, compassion, and warmth that Dr. Jason and Lap of Love showed our family. We understood exactly what was going to happen to our dog, and never felt rushed or that it was some kind of business transaction. It felt sacred. We could take our time saying our goodbyes and loving on her one last time, in our home, where she felt safe and loved. I am so grateful to Lap of Love for their service. Truly, from the bottom of our hearts, our family wants to thank you for helping us say goodbye to our pet in the most comfortable, humane, and loving way possible. If anyone reading this is having to make the heartbreaking choice to say goodbye to a loved pet, I am sorry for your grief. Lap of Love will help make the act of losing a pet more full of love and compassion for you and your loved ones.

Lap of Love and specifically Dr Jason Laramore we’re amazing. Dr Laramore was kind and patient with us and our beloved Great Dane Walter. He gave us space when we needed it and gently guided us through the whole process. There was no sense of rush at all and he was so very sweet with our pup. Walter had an amazing life and they helped us send him off in a beautiful and peaceful way. I could not recommend them enough to help your family and your beloved companions through their last moments. Thank you so very much from all of the MacLaren family!

We had to put our 16-1/2 year old dog down the other day. Dr. Jen was great and very caring to our dog. She explained everything very well. It was peaceful and quick. So glad we used Lap of Love to help us send our dog up to heaven!

Compassionate & professional. So glad we didn't have to scare our kitty in her final moments by taking her to a vet's office. Thank you Dr. Evin

Choose their services if you can; I would have! In the end, we needed emergency services. Had I been able to schedule, I would have. When I called Lap of Love the receptionist (or person taking my phone call) utterly radiated compassion that touched me through the phone. The heart-felt, caring nature of this place is off the charts.

We have used Lap of Love twice now, for good reason; they truly are THE best. As a certified Vet Tech, the owner of a pet sitting business, and the mother to 4 cats and 1 dog, animals (and their care) are my entire life, and I will always use Lap of Love to help cross my babies over. Photo shown is of our beautiful girl, Faith, whom crossed The Rainbow Bridge December 22, 2020 (she was 20.5 years old). Lap of Love gave me the peace of mind only they can give. I'm eternally grateful to their lovely team. ????

Unfortunately, we found ourselves having to reach out to Lap of Love at the very last moment. Our 19 year old cat took a turn for the worse very quickly. Lap of Love was able to get someone out within hours of our call. Dr. Evin was very gentle, professional and had a wonderful bedside manner while helping us through the process. We will definitely be using Lap of Love in the future with our other animals when it's their time to cross the rainbow bridge.

With sadness in our hearts, our family had to make the heartbreaking decision to release our beloved golden girl, Sarah Elizabeth, from her suffering today. She was a cherished part of our family for 13 years. Sarah was a sweet and gentle soul who enriched our lives with her love and loyal spirit. She will forever be missed. The process of letting go was immeasurably eased by the compassionate and empathetic staff at Lap of Love. Kristen was the one who scheduled our appointment. She explained the procedure with great care and sincerity. Kristen understood our grief and provided much needed comfort during this difficult time. Dr. Jason Laramore was assigned to our case. We are incredibly thankful for his prompt care. He was able to arrive at our home within hours of initial contact. Dr. Jason established an immediate rapport with our sweet girl. He treated her as if she was his own. He didn’t rush through the procedure. He answered all of our questions, consoled & reassured us that we were making the most loving and humane decision possible. He made Sarah feel incredibly special & loved. His presence was akin to having another family member in the room. There aren’t words to express our gratitude for the comforting and dignified environment Dr. Jason provided Sarah in her final hour. There was no fear. He made sure she fell into a slow, deep sleep while we gathered around, gave her love, and said our goodbyes. I can’t think of a more peaceful way to pass. I would highly recommend Lap of Love to anyone looking for hospice services for their furry loved ones. In addition to the exemplary care received, they also provide a commemorative paw print, memorial book, and lock of fur. ???? Lap of Love brought a bit of light to a very dark day. Our eternal thanks to you, Dr. Jason & Kristen. People like you restore my faith in humanity. Grace and Light to you all, The Sargent Family

Compassionate and kind in-home euthanasia. The very best way we could have possibly said goodbye to our Great Dane, saving him from the anxiety of going to a vet's office. A wonderful service.

They were able to come out and treated us with such compassion when our lab died of cancer. They took the horrible and made it bearable. They even handled the cremation.

Dr. Jen was very skilled at handling our feisty cat. She was creative in how she gave the medicine and she gave us time and space alone with our girl before she put her to sleep. She also sent a sympathy card and lit a candle on Callie's memorial, which meant so much to us. It was truly devastating to make this decision, but Dr. Jen made the process as easy as possible. We can't thank her enough for helping us put our girl to rest.

They were extremely kind throughout setting up the appointment. I was very grateful to the vet who came out, she was compassionate and helpful. It was the gentlest experience possible.

I had to put my beloved precious friend Boinky to rest on July 23rd 2020.This was not planned,I had hoped he had used the bathroom previous night.He was going through kidney failure and had not urinated in 2 days..Woke up on the 23rd to see he had not went,his bladder was so full and I could tell Boinky was in pain. He had gone through a horrific time 5 months ago at the South Vetranary Hospital ..I called his vet and they said they could not take him in . Were to booked to take him.I should take to ER . Was not gonna put him through that again. His vet told me about Lap of Love if I thought needed......I called them up they were so kind and Dr Evin could be out to my place in a few hours..Dr Evin was so kind and did not rush me at all. I think i took up about an hour to say my goodbye to Boinky.From beginning to end Dr Evin was so gentle with my boy,I cried so hard from loosing him and how empathetic Dr Evin was.After Dr Evin So gently put Boinky to rest ,he put him in his basket bed and covered and tucked him in securely. I had never been with one of my kids when had to put them down. This was the most hardest thing I have ever had to do.But I would do it again and have Dr Evin come to my home to do...Thank you Dr Evin ,for your professional and comforting ❤ service.And his ashes in the beautiful box and engravings on it along with his fur and paw print...And the card you sent was so nicely put.This service has to be one of the hardest things to do. Your service will be remembered and I am so grateful my baby was in such good hands ..Thank You Again. Jeanette Cummings and Boinky

I cannot begin to thank Lap of Love for making such a difficult time a whole lot easier, calm, peaceful, and comforting especially during this time in the world. The response was faster than I had anticipated (I messaged them online on Sunday and received a call Monday morning). The reps I had spoken with were just amazing and made things a lot easier and made me feel that I could express myself without being judged. They were able to set my appointment for the following day. Dr. Christina Howard was amazing she was nothing but patient, caring, and comforting. I had received my baby boy yesterday via delivery (I had chosen the private cremation option). Everything with this hasn't been easy but Lap of Love made it such a smooth transition in my life. I really can't thank them enough and I will be eternally grateful knowing my baby is resting in love and peace.

Dr Christina came to our home and could not have been kinder or gentler. She very thoughtfully spoke with us about our dog Bo’s situation and what the process would be like. We were able to feel comfortable that Bo was in competent hands which allowed us to focus all of our love and attention on him. We are left feeling heartbroken for our loss but very thankful that he was able to pass on so peacefully with Dr Christina’s help. Thank you Dr.

So professional and caring. Honestly such a beautiful opportunity, we are very grateful. Thank you so much for helping us help our Sparky boy pass on peacefully and surrounded by love.

Dr. Evin visited us yesterday to help us say goodbye to our sweet Ladybug. He is kind, caring and thoughtful. He handled our girl with the utmost respect and dignity. He explained everything. We could not have had a better experience with anyone. Lindsey was caring and sensitive when she set up our visit, and provided great resources for coping with the loss of a furry family member. We will be forever grateful to Lap of Love, Dr.Evin and his team.

Dr Evjn came to us on memorial day without hesitation and helped us care for our beloved 15 year old Bella in her final moments. She was at the end of her life and needed help to end her suffering. Lap of Love was responsive when other firms didn't even answer their phone or bother to call back on a holiday weekend. Dr. Evin could not have been any more loving and caring as we said goodbye to our Bella. I highly recommend Lap of Love to anyone having to say goodbye to their pet. Really amazing company.
