About Us
Meet Dr. Sara & Her Team
We are a mobile veterinary practice that specializes in end-of-life care for pets and pet loss services. All of us at Compassion 4 Paws are committed to helping you and your pet through these difficult times.
A Passionate and Dedicated Team
Out of the drive to start her own practice combined with her passion for end-of-life care for pets, Dr. Sara founded Compassion 4 Paws in late 2012. Since then, her devoted team of veterinarians and care coordinators continue to offer you and your beloved companion the support and care you need during this difficult time of navigating your pet’s end-of-life journey.
Dr. Sara’s team of dedicated veterinarians have specialized training in acupuncture and hospice care and are continually advancing their knowledge, allowing them to provide the highest quality care for your pet.
We at Compassion 4 Paws consider it an honor and privilege to support you through this journey.
Does this sound like a team you would like to be part of? Looking for a new opportunity? Go here to learn more about joining our team.

I find nothing more fulfilling than offering pets the care and dignity they deserve in an environment where they’re completely comfortable. Over the years, we have built our team of amazing and compassionate veterinarians and care coordinators to be able to better serve our wonderful community.
