❤️  Thanks to Janine, the sad process of having to put my two precious Goldies to sleep was beautiful for them and me. They went gently and peacefully with lots of love and cuddles from Janine and me. I could not have wished for a better end of life for them. Bless you Janine. I hope others will ask you to assist them when their pet's time comes.

❤️  You are in great hands with Janine. She is patient, caring and will listen to you. She will explain everything so you know what is going on. Please don’t take your pets to the vet.  Being at home in their environment with the smells they know and your love and voice is the best way to farewell your loved ones.

❤️  I can't recommend Janine enough. From the first contact, right through to collecting Zoe's ashes Janine was so kind, compassionate, patient and caring. Her communication was incredible, and she was so thoughtful and considerate. Janine answered all our questions with so much kindness and knowledge. She was so incredibly patient as we changed dates and times. Nothing was a problem. The small and sincere touches Janine offers speaks of nothing but love and sincerity. We feel blessed Janine was a part of our journey and helped us at such an incredibly difficult and sad time. She made the whole process so much more relaxing and personal. Thank you for allowing us to have the space and time to say goodbye in our own time and way, at home where Zoe felt safe and loved x

❤️  I can not express just how highly I would rate Dr. Janine for helping your beloved pets to cross over the rainbow bridge. From the first point of contact, she was kind, caring and helpful. She was fantastic with communication, and came into my home to do what I believe must be such a hard job with emotions running high. She was so easy to talk to, and so reassuring through the whole process. The care and respect she showed throughout the whole process was absolutely incredible. Tux left this world so peacefully and with so much dignity. The care and respect continued all the way through the process of taking him away for cremation as well as returning his ashes. Janine - you really go above and beyond what I ever expected, and I'm so so grateful that you were able to do this for us. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

❤️  I came across Dr Janine on FB and got in touch because it hasn’t crossed my mind that I could have my dear old dog pts at home. I had a chat and explained he was a big dog and could be a bit tricky. Janine explained there were some things we could do to help him chill beforehand so that he could be laid to rest at home.Once I decided the day she talked me through everything and came over the night before. Worthy really liked her.On the evening of the procedure she was kind, compassionate and we were not rushed or hurried along. Nothing was done without us being ready.Knowing Worthy crossed the rainbow bridge at home in my daughter’s arms surrounded by love makes me really happy. I had 11.5 years with him and letting him go with the dignity and respect he deserved was everything to me.I would recommend Janine to anyone without hesitation.

❤️  I contacted initially last year when our girl was diagnosed with two types of cancer for quotes and then last month, when our girl deteriorated she gave me a call, and we made a plan. From the moment she entered our home to when I picked up the ashes, Janine was comforting & made this experience for us and our Zena a pleasant memory.. for anyone considering an at home option, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend, and if we have too, I would definitely use again �� thank you so much - the Knox whānau x

❤️  We can not thank Janine enough for her kindness and empathy during an emotionally tough time. Having our wee dog Acre snuggling up to her and seeing how compassionate she was throughout the whole process means a lot to my family. We are glad that we chose to do right by Acre within her home setting with someone who genuinely cares ❤️

Thank you.

❤️  Janine has a natural instinct for reading the situation without a word spoken and the perfect mix of a beautiful insight , pragmatism, humour and a true caring touch for your beloved whanau member. I have three other babies and I will not hesitate to contact Janine when the time comes. Just simply, a good sort who sees what’s going on and adapts with so much love for your baby.

❤️  Janine was amazing, kind and very professional during a really difficult time, she took time to explain the process and answer any questions and even talked through the process with our young girls meeting then at their level to help them understand, I can not recommend Janine enough.
