End Of Life Care

At Kiln Creek Animal Care, we understand that pets are cherished members of the family. We offer a variety of end-of-life services to ensure that your pet’s final days are as comfortable and peaceful as possible. Our team of compassionate professionals is here to support you and your furry friend through this difficult time.
End-of-life Pet Services
Our end-of-life services include pain management, euthanasia, and aftercare options such as cremation and memorial services. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your pet’s care while providing comfort and support throughout the process. Prior to making this difficult decision, your veterinarian will perform a quality-of-life exam on your pet.
Kiln Creek Animal Care has partnered with Garden of the Pines Pet Cemetery & Cremation in Virginia Beach as a way to help you memorialize your best friend. If you are interested in learning more about the options available to you, please visit their website here.

Remembering Your Pet
We understand that the loss of a pet is never easy, but we hope to help make the process as comforting and peaceful as possible.
As Helen Keller said, “What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.“
We believe that your pet’s memory will live on through the love and joy they brought into your life.
At Kiln Creek Animal Care, we are here to support you and your pet every step of the way. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns about end-of-life care.
