The last day of service will be Wednesday, February 11th or when the drug supply is exhausted, whichever occurs sooner. At this time, I can still provide in-home euthanasia for small dogs and cats only.

For the past four years, it has been a privilege to support pets and their families throughout the Cowichan Valley through mobile veterinary services. From the critical patients who made it to the ER through transport, the sick pets who received care and recovered at home, or the final goodbyes to beloved family members. I am deeply grateful for the trust you have placed in me during some of life’s most difficult moments.

I've arrived at a very difficult decision to relocate out of the area later this winter. As part of this transition, I need to begin winding down mobile urgent care and medical transport services, effective immediately, as I am no longer restocking or replacing expiring medical supplies required to safely provide those services.

In-home euthanasia services will continue to be offered through mid February and I remain fully committed to supporting families during this time with the same care, compassion, and availability you have come to expect.

I recognize that these changes will be difficult, particularly as some of these services have been unique within the region. This decision was not made lightly and all other options were exhausted. Unfortunately, plans to transition the practice to a new owner who could continue services locally did not come together and the timeline no longer allows for further pursuit of that option.

My hope is to continue supporting families with pets who need end-of-life care until my move and I sincerely appreciate your understanding. I hope to leave the door open to the possibility of returning to the area or resuming services in the future, should circumstances allow.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and for the opportunity to care for your pets over the past several years. It has truly been an honor.

With gratitude,
Dr. Kari Christianson, DVM, BSc, CPEV

I’ve received some reports that text messages have not been going through. There doesn’t seem to be an issue with replying to any of my texts, but if an owner initiates a text message conversation, it may not be received. If you are trying to reach me and have sent a text, but didn’t receive a reply, please try an alternate method and either call and leave a voicemail or send an email to [email protected] until I can confirm the issue has been resolved with customer service.
