About this user
Lap of Love provides compassionate, in-home end-of-life care for pets. Lap of Love's goal is to empower every owner to care for their geriatric pets. Dr. Dani McVety had experience in human hospice before veterinary school and wanted to use that knowledge for pets and started Lap of Love Veterinary Hospice and In Home Euthanasia in 2009.
After providing hospice for her own dog (who had terminal cancer) and then finally having to say goodbye to him at home, Dr. Mary Gardner knew first hand the importance of veterinary hospice and joined Dr. Dani (friends from veterinary school) in this wonderful specialty.
The communities' desire for compassionate end of life veterinary care was obvious and they began receiving calls from all over the United States.
In just a few short years, Drs. McVety and Gardner have spoken at national veterinary conferences as well as to local veterinarians and universities about veterinary hospice, palliative care, and euthanasia. Lap of Love has been featured in numerous newspapers, magazines, television news stations, radio shows, and veterinary related publications.
Our philosophy centers around the human-animal bond and the need for that bond to be as undisturbed as possible during this most difficult time. The desire to bring this important service to families across the United States is slowly being realized as additional veterinarians begin working under the same philosophy. Lap of Love is honored to have some of the most compassionate and empathetic vets working with us.
