Dr. Taro and Dr. Krissy are here, along with your primary care veterinarian, to help you with one of the toughest decisions in your pet's life. We understand that making this decision is painful, heartbreaking, and extremely difficult. Through our combined 40 plus years in the veterinary medical field, we have helped countless families through this decision-making process. There is no "perfect" time, but it is dependent on your pet's specific lifestyle, joys, and needs, and their current quality of life.
If you are still unsure about your decision, please follow this link for useful Quality of Life Assessment aids provided by the Ohio State Veterinary School. And if you need additional guidance, please reach out to Dr. Taro or Dr. Krissy.

"I am so incredibly grateful for this angel of a man who does such meaningful and emotional work with dignity, heart, and respect." Heather, Roseville, July 2025.
"What a joy to see my cat display no discomfort when passing over the Rainbow Bridge. Dr. Taro even helped me bury Hopper, as I have medical issues and no family members nearby to help." Arlene, Folsom, July 2025.
"Dr. Taro was, in short, amazing. Comforting without being obsequious, professional while caring, gentle and respectful for our old girl. His words were consoling and genuine. He was the rock for our family." Patrick, Sacramento, April 2025.
“Our adult son is autistic and he doesn’t handle emotions or strangers well. Dr. Taro was so caring, compassionate, and peaceful with his presence, that my son and I were able to be fully comfortable saying our goodbyes to our beloved Justice. Thank you Dr. Taro for being exactly what we needed today.” Jessica, Carmichael, June 2023.
