Description On your pet's final day, our peaceful in-home euthanasia experiences leave our families with more resolve than worry. Our focus is one family at a time. What is important to you is important to us. A time of togetherness, patience, remembrance, and often storytelling help us honor the bond we have shared with our furry family members. Thank you for inviting us to help with this very difficult time.

I feel that any words I write here do not come close to expressing my wife's and my gratitude toward Denice and Josh for their care, compassion, and respect for my best friend, but I will try anyways. Buddy was my first dog, brought home at eight weeks, rarely not at my side throughout the next 11 years of his life. Thanks to River Valley Gateway, he enjoyed his final morning under the shade in his backyard, being held, petted, and reassured that he was the best boy. Denice was immensely patient and understanding as she helped my wife and I through the process, made sure we knew what was coming next, ensuring we knew he could still hear us, and just allowing us to take our time through one of the most difficult experiences of my life so far. When we came to see his cremation and say one final goodbye, Josh ensured that we were prepared for what we would experience. He walked us through each step in the process, while consistently checking to ensure we were prepared for, and wanted to participate in, as much or as little as we needed. It has been a blessing to have this experience, and worth so much more than what they generously charge for their services. I was so grateful to have his sister, Sasha, get to see and smell him so that she could process his absence alongside my wife and I. It was never even a concern that she was present throughout it all. I honestly feel that I was treated as family with the amount of care and concern everyone at River Valley Gateway shared with my wife, myself, and Sasha. It was a blessing to have this be part of his end of life story. I am forever grateful to Denice, Josh, and their entire team for what they gave to us. Thank you.

We took our beloved Pandora and Romeow here. Josh helped us through the process and was so kind and compassionate and supportive. It’s such a hard thing to go through but Josh made it a little easier. The care and kindness he used when helping Pando through the process is so appreciated. Thank you.

I had to make the decision to put my sweet senior dog to sleep quicker than I planned due to his health taking a quick turn. The professionalism and kindness they offered is something every pet and pet lover should experience. Dr. Norton was so empathetic and communicative during the whole process. It was a gift to allow my sweet boy to pass lovingly in my and my family's embrace.

Today we put our handsome boy to rest. Definitely not a easy decision for anyone to make. Denice was amazing, she came to our house and she helped make the process easier for us all. She helped us understand everything she was doing, and helped our boy feel as comfortable as possible. He has always been in good hands, from his beginning to his end. Thank you so very much, I will recommend y'all to anyone in need!

River Valley Gateway was so wonderful to deal with. All the staff we came in contact with were empathetic, kind, and gentle. They helped us navigate the hard choices and gave us a sense of safety. Josh was patient with our two little girls, and allowed us all to individually say our good byes. My family and I are so grateful for the care they gave to our sweet Bayn boy. The whole process made me feel like Bayn was treated with compassion and dignity. It rained the day we picked Bayn's ashes up and a big rainbow showed up when we got home 🌈 ❤️ Thank you River Valley for all your care!

If I could give 100 stars I would. I had to have my almost 20 year old cat put to sleep on January 17th and she was taken from the ER Vet to river valley. I was amazed when I picked up her ashes and not only was it in a gorgeous container but they also gave me her paw prints impressions, which I was not expecting. It caused the river of tears to start again. You guys are amazing.
