Heart of Vermont Vet: At-Home End-of-Life Care for Pets

"We can not thank Dr. Erika Bruner enough for making an absolutely heart crushing decision, that had to be made for my son's best friend of 13 years, as peaceful, passionate and comforting as it could possibly be. Your tenderness and making sure that Diesel, Tim Sprague, Jasmyn Sprague my husband and myself were well informed and able to process in our own time without being rushed or judged is appreciated more than you know. Thank you so much for all you do for the furbaby family member as well as the humans!!! 💞"

"Erika came to our house and helped us with the very difficult task of saying goodbye to our best friend. She was very patient and explained everything to us and made tge process as easy as possible. I was a complete wreck and it was obvious I wasn't doing good, a couple days after she was here I received a sympathy card in the mail. It's not just a job to her, she cares about the animals and the praople and makes the worse day of your life a little bit easier with her actions."

"The kindness and guidance we received from Erika during our 15-year-old husky Desmond's end of life was truly outstanding. Erika did a 2-hour consultation with us and helped us understand the full scope of our options, letting us guide the process and supporting us in feeling confident during what was one of the most difficult periods of decision-making of our lives. She ultimately helped Desmond pass peacefully, outside and at home while we were with him. She treated him with the respect and dignity he deserved, and honored our bond with him to the very last moment. Thank you, Dr. Bruner, for helping him - and us. We whole-heartedly recommend her services to any pet owners in Central Vermont. Saying goodbye is impossibly difficult, but having the option to do so at home and ensure the pet's comfort is the ultimate gift."
