About Vet

I am a licensed veterinarian certified in pet hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life support (CHPV) through the International Association of Animal Hospice & Palliative Care (IAAHPC). I help pet parents navigate difficult moments by offering calm, compassionate guidance when their pet is aging, seriously ill, or experiencing changes in comfort or quality of life.

During virtual consultations, we’ll talk through what you’re seeing at home, discuss comfort-focused care options, and address your questions with honesty and empathy. These visits are designed to help you feel more informed, supported, and confident in the decisions you’re making for your pet.

While telemedicine cannot replace an in-person exam, it can provide reassurance, education, and perspective—especially during emotionally challenging times. My goal is to support you with clarity and kindness, so you never feel alone in caring for your pet.

I Can Help With: Quality-of-life and comfort assessments Guidance for aging or terminally ill pets Understanding symptoms and changes at home Preparing for next steps in care or in-person visits Emotional support for pet parents facing difficult decisions
