What Our Clients Are Saying
We know you have a lot of options when it comes to selecting a vet, and we thank you for making us one of the highest-rated hospice and senior care veterinarians in the Southern Maine area.
I wanted to share widely the incredible experience we recently had with Dr. Kelly Hill, owner of Haven Veterinary Housecall. Sadly, we had to make the decision to say goodbye to our beloved 16 year-old Himalayan kitty this past weekend. His health had declined very rapidly over the last week, and we had to have him put down unexpectedly over the weekend. We contacted Dr. Hill who could not have been more professional, responsive, and compassionate. She came to our home, explained the process to us, made us feel comfortable and respected, and was amazing with our 7 year old son, who of course had many hard questions. The process was calm, peaceful, and I genuinely cannot imagine having done it any other way. Dr. Hill helped turn a heart-breaking goodbye in to a heart-warming experience. If you are in need of any senior pet care/therapy, hospice, or end-of-life services, I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you, Dr. Hill – we will be forever grateful ❤️
When my wife and I thought we were prepared to say goodbye to our beloved 14-year old dog, Dr. Hill performed the most thorough exam he ever had. She conducted laser therapy on the hot spots he had been licking, prescribed pain meds for his arthritis and recommended a novel protein diet (bison, who knew?) that provided him with an extra 2 months of high quality life that we cherished every moment of.
I’d never heard of a hospice vet before and was amazed by the amount of time she spent with Brewski and how she assessed his entire body, not just our areas of concern. If you have a senior pet and want to be sure you exhaust every possible action before saying goodbye, Dr. Hill should be your next call.
When Brewski let us know he was ready, Dr. Hill came to our house within 24 hours of me contacting her. She made the process no pet parent wants to do as peaceful and gentle as possible for Brewski and as bearable as possible for us. We’re forever grateful to Dr. Hill and recommend her to anyone whose pet needs extra care.
