I’ve gone back and forth on sharing this, but I know how important it is🖤
For Stella, Tito, and Ollie, I chose to have them pass at home, in peace, where they felt safest. And I truly could not have done that without Lap of Love Veterinary Hospice.
Dr. Jess Lisak… I don’t even feel like words fully do her justice. She is one of the kindest souls I have ever met. You can feel instantly that this is exactly what she was meant to do. The way she moves through such a heavy moment with so much care, patience, and genuine compassion is something I will never forget.
The first time we had her, I just knew… if I ever had to go through this again, it would only be with her. And that never changed. I trusted her completely with my dogs, which says everything, because I don’t trust easily when it comes to them.
She doesn’t just do a job. She feels it with you. She honors your dog. She holds space for your grief in a way that makes something so painful feel a little more peaceful.
The entire Lap of Love team has been nothing but compassionate, gentle, and incredibly supportive through the hardest moments of my life.
I’m beyond grateful it was them. And especially her.
If you’re ever in the position of having to make that decision, just know this option exists. And it can be really, really beautiful in its own way🖤
Thank you for being one of the most amazing humans Dr. Jess Lisak🫶🏻
