  • "Shantelle was gentle and caring. It's a great service that she provides, it would have been a stressful situation if we would have had to go to the vet's office. She took her time with us and let us move at our own pace. Thank you again Shantelle. "

  • "I cannot say enough good things about Passing Paws. Dr. Shantelle was so gracious, kind, empathic and professional. She explained everything to us in detail so we would know exactly what to expect. She helped our senior guy transition in such a peaceful and graceful way. We also received a clay paw print and lock of hair. She was even kind enough to send us a sympathy card. I thank Dr. Shantelle so much for her service."

  • "Dr. Shantelle was great. She was calm, respectful, and patient. She answered all our questions before starting. She gave us updates beforehand, throughout the process, and after.

    We knew when that time came and we had to make the hardest decision of our life, that we wanted Grey to pass on the couch on his favorite blanket. He was relaxed and comfortable. It was peaceful and it was as pleasant of an experience as it could have been. We would use her again for future pets."

  • "We recently had to say goodbye to our beloved Winnie and was fortunate to have Dr. Shantelle Williams from Passing Paws assist us through this difficult time. Dr. Shantelle was exceptional in every way. Her response was swift, and her calm, professional demeanor made an incredibly challenging situation more bearable. She approached the process with deep compassion and allowed us to take things at our own pace, which meant a great deal to us. Her gentle manner provided a comforting presence during a painful moment.

    -Emily
  • "Our wonderful 9 1/2 year old pup was stricken with Canine Degenerative Myelopathy which progressed very quickly. In six weeks he went from being able to walk to total paralysis in his hind legs and complete incontinence. We wanted to make sure we did what was right for him and the thought of his last ride to a place that’s already stressful for him did not appeal to us. A co-worker suggested in-home euthanasia and after receiving some referrals we are so pleased we reached out to Dr Shantelle and Passing Paws. She was compassionate, caring, and professional all at once. Our other pets were so relaxed around her my wife said she was a “pet Angel”. For anyone who has to make this difficult decision I would highly recommend in-home euthanasia and Passing Paws."

Her presence as my family sat with our cat Cali was warm and understanding, I was glad she was there to help us. I will call her again when it is time to let our other baby let go as well.

    I can't recommend her enough. Thank you!"

  • "I cannot express how grateful we were to have had Passing Paws help us on one of our worst days.

    Dr. Williams made the entire process beautiful and peaceful. She walked us through every step, gave us all the time we needed, and even brought some chocolate kisses for our chocolate girl.

    She is kind, thoughtful, and truly cares about the tranquility of the pets and their people during these difficult moments. She made our experience one that we would be happy to share, full of heartwarming and loving memories, and offered us keepsakes that we can look back on forever!

    Thank you for helping us to send our baby over the rainbow bridge."

    She is kind, caring and patient. Having an in-house call is a service others should consider in the time of need."

    -Liz
  • "Thank you so much, Dr. Shantelle, for your compassion and kindness during the difficult choice of letting my sweet little guy Radar cross the rainbow bridge. You allowed me to correspond by text and email, which made it easier for me with so much going on.

    Your sweet disposition and obvious love for people and animals was comforting. Being able to let my little guy pick his spot to rest at home and not have to be anxious by going to the vet was everything for me. I appreciate that you understood that Radar was family and treated us and him with the upmost respect and care.

    I am forever grateful that my last image of my sweet boy was tucked in a basket with a pillow and blanket. Then, your follow up messages, card, and resources for grieving continued the comfort. You are a blessing and I can't thank you enough."

    -Dawn
  • "My cat Oliver was diagnosed with bone cancer in his skull on 4/19/2024. The vet said he wasn't sure how many good days Oliver would have left. He said we would need to consider euthanasia and very soon at that.

    Shantelle was very professional and helpful. We thought Oliver had more time than he did, and she helped us reschedule at least twice to move it closer up since our boy was clearly suffering. Shantelle is very helpful and she explained the entire process then asked us if we had any questions. She was amazing to my Oliver. She's very gentle and she treated my cat like he was an old friend of hers.

    Thank you for helping my Ollie pass peacefully in my lap surrounded by his family. ❤️🐈‍⬛️"

  • "My experience with Passing Paws was the best I could have asked for. When I was sure it was the end of our beloved Clark’s time I reached out to Passing Paws and they responded quickly and could come the next day.

    Shantelle was knowledgable, professional, could answer our questions and efficiently guided us through the process. I am especially grateful for the first sedation shot because we were able to see our dog (clearly struggling and in pain) shift into a warm, relaxed state and he looked so much at peace as we were able to spend our last moments with him, in our home where he was comfortable. This really meant a lot. I would recommend Passing Paws to anyone in a similar situation. Even though a very sad day Shantelle made this process a lot easier on Clark and the whole family."
