"Doctor Katie offered kindness, compassion and care during Leaf’s euthanasia appointment. We are grateful to have had her serve as Leaf’s death steward."
About seven months before you left this earth, you started smiling in ways I’d never witnessed before. You even smiled in your dreams — not just when it came time for meals, a piece of cheese, or a morning walk. You smiled when you’d see me. Whenever I’d come home, you’d raise your weary body from the couch and inch towards the front door just in time to tell me: welcome home, mama — where… Read The Rest of This Memorial
Our sweet Benson🩵 Benny came to us as a baby when our first Golden was diagnosed with cancer. He was our joy during the heartache of losing Gunner. Benson did not know how to keep his tongue in, he kissed and kissed everyone he was close to, stranger or family. He was joy and silliness, loyal and a best friend. He loved fruit snacks, swimming in the creek, and cornering small animals under rocks. We… Read The Rest of This Memorial
"I’m so happy we used Heaven at Home to say goodbye. They provided the most professional, comfortable and beautiful experience possible. The price we paid for that experience is priceless as it turned the worst day…"
Coal lived almost 13 years filling our lives with energy, antics and so much love. Everyone loved Coal and he loved everyone. He kept life interesting and kept us on our toes as he loved to grab remotes, shoes, dish towels etc. His favorite things to do were sunbathing, eating and just being around people and the action. He never let you forget he was around. He developed the act of counter surfing in his… Read The Rest of This Memorial
"The staff of Heaven at Home were phenomenal and we cannot sing their praises enough. Kim and Tina provided us with much needed kindness and assistance to ensure we received the proper aftercare to commemorate Oliver's…"
It's taken me several weeks to get a proper write-up for Oliver's life as I feel nothing I commit to this memorial section will sufficiently do him the justice he deserved. Oliver was the best outcome for a bad breakup. He was the end result of a young couple seeking to inject life into an expiring relationship, and little did I know how greatly he'd impact me. I had adopted him with an ex-girlfriend when… Read The Rest of This Memorial
"This is the first time i have used an at home hospice vet and to say it was a wonderful experience is an understatement! The vet was so kind and compassionate from beginning to end and…"
Baby was such an amazing dog. She was so full of life and found moments of spunk even until the very end. We got her at 8 weeks old and she was a part of our life for 15 beautiful years. She had grown and changed with me through the years and we aged together. She got to meet our first grandchild and we are so thankful for that! There is a huge hole in… Read The Rest of This Memorial

"From the very first phone call, Sonya answered with one of the kindest voices I have ever heard. She gently walked us through the entire process, knowing this was our first time experiencing something like this.…"
We searched for a dog for nearly two years before we found Chuck’s picture online. He was born in Irons, Michigan — a perfect 50/50 mix of Golden Retriever and Standard Poodle. From the moment we met him, we knew he was ours. We brought him home at just 8½ weeks old. At only eight pounds, he was small enough to fit in the palm of my hand. Chuck was born on Friday, June 13,… Read The Rest of This Memorial
"We were so blessed to be able to tell Bo goodbye while she laid on her dog bed in our living room, surrounded by all who love her. Dr. Hoss was so compassionate, sympathetic and understanding,…"
We adopted Bo when she was 8 years old from a family friend in Ohio. She had so much energy and would run and pull us through the park on her walks. Her favorite place was Hager Park. At the end of the trail was a big swimming hole. She would run all the way down the trail and jump in, making a big splash! She loved doing this every day and continued doing it… Read The Rest of This Memorial

"Your service was a blessing to our heartbroken family. Kimberly was so professional and comforting. If we didn't have your service his enormous loss would have been even worse. Our precious Odie left us in peace…"
Odie was the best. He was 16 years old and my very best friend. Losing him was heartbreaking. Read The Rest of This Memorial
"From the initial call with Sonya, to the follow up with Paula and the visit with Dr. Smith - the genuineness and compassion was felt and appreciated. Dr. Smith attended to our dear girl with tenderness,…"
Gerbie will always be remembered as a fun loving, alpha female, at 9# :), that was a maternal caregiver to both pups and family members. She could hike a ball between her back legs endlessly and outrun dogs of all sizes. Her favorite "treaty treats" were Krispies and toasty toast. Nearly 16 years of cherished memories! "Gerbie girl", "Wubba" enjoy the sunshine and loving company in heaven. Sweet, loving soul. Read The Rest of This Memorial
"Everyone at Heaven at Home, from the first phone call and consultation with Dr. Hoss to the home visit with Dr. Brush, was incredible. I felt like they walked with me through this journey and difficult…"
Sweet Maisie was a sweet, stubborn, and smart PWD who loved to swim - especially up North in Lake Charlevoix. I loved the way she curled herself into a "C", wagging her tail and grabbing the nearest toy when I got home from school every day. She knew almost everyone in the neighborhood - dogs and people - and always had to stop to say hello. She was in my life for 13.5 years and… Read The Rest of This Memorial
