I had Patrick out to have a peaceful farewell for my beautiful Gem girl. I have used him previously so has my family and he has always been so respectful and understanding to your needs. Highly recommend using him. Thank you again
My mum's dog was helped over the rainbow bridge by Dr Patrick today. I have had three dogs pts over the last 30 years. Dr Patrick was absolutely the loveliest and his process was a whole new experience. So peaceful.
Our girl Lady made such a massive impact on our lives, home and family. It was the hardest thing deciding to let her pass on. We wanted her passing to be as peaceful as possible. We are so thankful for Dr Patrick helping us through this. He showed so much respect, kindness and compassion. Lady passed surrounded by loved ones in comfort. Dr Patrick presence during and after the procedure really helped us too. We have a little boy and he even gave advice on how to help children understand what happened to our girl as well as reaching out afterward to see how we were doing. Definitely reach out to Dr Patrick if you want the best passing for your pet.
Dr Patrick was the most authentic amazing person when it came to say goodbye to our baby boy. Thank you so much for being so kind and supportive.
Heartfelt thanks to Dr Patrick who provided compassionate end of life care to our beloved Banjo. My beautiful boy fell into his final sleep peacefully in my arms as he crossed the rainbow bridge. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr Patricks Ark Angel Vet Service when the only decision is to end your pets suffering.
In what was a very dark day for our family Dr Patrick immediately made us all at ease, his calm presence and professionalism was amazing, even the follow up txt’s hours later lifted our spirits. Thank you Dr Patrick 💕
Choosing to say goodbye to our beloved dog, Sunny, was the hardest decision we've ever made. However, we are eternally grateful to Dr. Patrick for making it a peaceful, gentle, and respectful experience. From the moment he arrived at our home, Dr. Patrick was a calming and compassionate presence. He took the time to explain the entire process to us, answering all of our questions with patience and empathy. He treated Sunny with such love and respect, making sure he was comfortable and at ease. The personal touches he provided were truly remarkable. Gifting us with flowers and sunflower seeds was such a thoughtful gesture that gave us a little bit of light during an incredibly dark time. He also handled Sunny's transport to the crematorium with dignity and care, which meant the world to us. Dr. Patrick is not just a vet; he is a truly compassionate human being who understands the profound bond between a person and their pet. We cannot recommend him highly enough. He made a heartbreaking day manageable and gave our sweet Sunny the send-off he deserved.
My beloved little man has gone home to be with his brother. Dr Patrick was the gentle friend we needed to help say goodbye until we meet our beloved again. Patient, tender, focused on the least distress for all of us, but most importantly for Mooshi. Thank you Dr Patrick for helping us is in our temporary parting.
It has taken me a very long time to write this review. We contacted Dr. Patrick back in April 2024 to help us give our precious Millie a beautiful, peaceful send off and that is exactly what he did and more. Dr Patrick was so kind, compassionate, understanding and above all patient while we said our goodbyes. Anyone who has lost a beloved pet knows how devastating it is. It was absolutely gut wrenching but Dr. Patrick made it so beautiful that I can actually look back on it now and smile. Our Millie was so at peace in her safe place at home surrounded by her loved ones as she passed on. Dr. Patrick gave us Sunflower seeds to plant in remembrance and we did that and then harvested the seeds to keep replanting and expanding the sunflower garden. It’s something I wouldn’t have thought of at the time but I’m so so glad he did. Now every time I see a sunflower I think of my Millie 🌻 thank you so so much from the bottom of bottom of my heart Dr. Patrick. You were a shining light in a very dark time. I just apologise it has taken me this long to write a review.
Dr Patrick was our angel on one of the hardest days of our lives. Saying goodbye to our 12 year old Labrador Polly was made just that bit more bearable with Dr Patrick by our side. So compassionate and tuned in to our feelings and needs. I have been recommending Dr Patrick to all my friends and family with fur babies as I could not think of anyone else I would rather have by our side in that heartbreaking moment. I will be forever grateful for his care and love on that hard day-it’ll never be forgotten. The Verlinden family xx
Dr Patrick was a beacon of light on a dark day. My 15yo cat Natasha deteriorated quickly overnight and Dr Patrick answered the call in the early morning. He handled my baby girl with dignity and respect, giving me as much time as I needed to say goodbye. The extra touches were so comforting, including a card, sunflower seeds, herbal teas and a tuft of her hair. Thank you Dr Patrick, you truly are an angel.
I am so so thankful that in my panic to try and find someone on a Saturday morning, without putting my poor boy through the stress of an emergency car ride, that I found Dr Patrick who took us on straight away. I could not believe how much further he went to make such a heartbreaking situation, feel so much better and be so beautiful. Our Simba drifted away so peacefully with his own little memorial, which he deserved to be honoured with in his 19 wonderful years. Dr Patrick brought flowers from his garden for Simba to hug between his paws, with petals sprinkled over him after he passed. I've never come across someone who truly treats your kitty as your beloved family member. Don't think twice, you definitely want this wonderful vet to make your final moments with your best buddy kind and peaceful and loving.
I cannot express how grateful I am for Dr. Patrick's extraordinary care during a very difficult time. His kindness, deep knowledge, and extraordinary method made a heartbreaking situation feel not so unbearable. Dr. Patrick's compassion and professionalism reassured us every step of the way. He treated our beloved Benji with utmost respect and honor, and the memorial he organized was incredible, reassuring us that our Benji would be going to a better place. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of such compassionate care.
We recently had to say goodbye to our beloved boy Rudy after 14 wonderful years, and we were fortunate to have Dr. Patrick by our side during this incredibly difficult moment. His service was beyond incredible—he brought a deep sense of peace and compassion into our home. The care and genuine empathy he showed to both Rudy and our family were truly remarkable. Dr. Patrick’s kindness, gentleness, and calm presence made an unbearable experience feel dignified and full of love. He is truly meant for this profession, and we are endlessly grateful for the way he helped us through such a heartbreaking time. Thank you, Dr. Patrick.
Making the decision for my 21 year old boy Shah; was the most difficult and distressing part of this process. Dr Patrick was incredibly comforting with his holistic, compassionate and patient approach. My heart is broken for the loss of my boy; but I am solaced knowing that his ending was very dignified and peaceful. Dr Patrick, you are truly an Ark ANGEL. Thank you for being part of this final chapter for us ❤️
