Lap of Love

"At a most difficult time, Laps of Love was caring, gentle and very understanding. No one wants to say good bye to their beloved pet, but Laps of Love was the perfect way to say good bye in our own home. Thank you, Jessica"

Lisa Rodin

"I can't begin to express how grateful my whole family is for everything you have done to help us through this process. Given how hard the situation was and still is, you have made the whole process better than I could have imagined. I have the utmost respect for you and how strong you are to be with us and many others during their last moments with their beloved pets. I will cherish the last moments I was able to spend with Greta and now the memories I have to remember her. Not only have I felt so much pain after losing her but before it happened, I kept thinking I was making the wrong decision. You helped my husband and I ..."

Kali Jimenez

"Dr. Kali was so compassionate. This was the hardest decision I have ever had to make. Diesel was my comfort, my strength and my purpose for me since I lost my beloved husband in 2008 and my beloved boxer, Katie in 2017. To see him struggling every day in pain was too much to bare. Dr. Kali spoke softly, was gentle to both diesel and I. I was able to be with him to the end without him being in no more pain."

Jessica Spitzer

"Thank you to Dr. Jessica Spitzer for coming to us on such short notice to help our beloved Pookie pass peacefully so he was no longer in pain. I'm glad I chose this option to have him pass at home which made it more comfortable and peaceful for him and us then at the vet center. Jessica was very courteous and professional under these difficult circumstances. Thank you very much . Rene and Jennifer"

Nikki Lynch

"Dr. Nikki was an incredible comfort during a very difficult time for our entire family. Her kindness and sensitivity throughout this process is something we will not forget. The gift of being able to say goodbye to a beloved part of our family while being in the comfort of our home (and more importantly Mickey’s home) was extremely special and Lap of Love and Dr. Nikki are to thank for that."

“In loving memory of our Buddy, our baby, our best friend, and the best part of every day.

“Which is worse: being devastated or heartbroken? How about devastatingly heartbroken?

Our boy is gone. Our delightful boy who was so good all the time, is gone. I'm not sure how I'm going to function. He was not just a dog - he was a Force. Not in a Star Wars type of Force - or maybe he was exactly just that. Something not of this world.
I ...”

“When I saw Denali at Mary S Robert’s Pet Adoption, I was instantly in love. I already had a scared little rescue at home, and they warned me not to get my hopes up, as he might be dog aggressive, but this sweet boy proved everyone wrong. When I came into the room with Little, who was shaking and terrified, he got down on his belly and army crawled ...”

“Our beloved Moxie girl earned her wings on February 25, 2021. Ever the Diva, she undoubtedly pranced her way right in to heaven, much like she pranced her way around her home and yard.

Moxie joined our family on March 1, 2009. All 1.5 pounds of her utterly terrified our 100-pound lab, Sojo. He didn’t know what to do with that cotton ball’s ...”
