Compassionate and relaxed in-home care for senior or chronically ill pets in the greater Portland, Maine region.
We can help pets with:
Chronic pain, such as arthritis
Acute pain, such as after an operation or accident
Neurologic diseases, such as back/disc problems or degenerative myelopathy
Cancer symptoms (either when in treatment or opting out of treatment)
Cognitive dysfunction (“doggie dementia”)
Heart disease symptoms
Chronic kidney disease
and many other issues
We take the time to listen to your concerns, and focus on pain and symptom management (sometimes called palliative care). We use a combination of medications, acupuncture, physical rehabilitation (PT but for animals), and nutrition to help your pet feel their best for as long as possible. Your in-depth care plan may include the option for eventual in-home euthanasia, but we will guide you through those difficult decisions.
Wondering how we can help your pet and family? Give us a call at (207) 809-9626, or book an initial consultation using the button below.
Testimonials
“Dr. Renee has been instrumental in increasing my elderly dog’s qualify of life. She developed a personalized physical rehabilitation plan targeting Luna’s specific deficits that was doable at home with our family’s busy schedule. We have seen improvement in balance, strength and gait; my old dog has actually learned new tricks and looks forward to her exercises!

When we finally accepted that we had to let go of Chewie our top priority was his comfort. Being able to say goodbye to him at home where he felt most at ease was not only a comfort to him but to us. Dr Renee enabled us to all be together as a family, in his favorite spot, for his final breaths. It meant so much to us to be able to do that for him, to be able to take our time in saying goodbye, and to know that his last moments were as peaceful as they could be because he was in the place he loved best.”
