About Us| In-Home Pet Euthanasia & Hospice Care

At Peaceful Tails, our mission is to provide gentle and compassionate home euthanasia in Charlotte, North Carolina & the surrounding areas (including South Carolina), giving pets and their families the comfort of saying goodbye at home. We are dedicated to supporting you through one of life’s most tender moments with empathy and kindness, always honoring the deep bond between people and their beloved companions.

We believe pets should be surrounded by love and familiarity when it is time to cross the rainbow bridge. That may be by a sunny window, their favorite bed, the couch, the backyard, or even your lap — wherever they feel most at home.

Testimonials

A woman sitting next to a large Labrador retriever dog, both looking at each other in front of a fireplace with a fire burning inside. The woman has short dark hair and is wearing a beige top. The room has light-colored walls, a white fireplace mantel with decorations, and a sign above the mantel that reads 'this is us'.

“We’ll always be thankful to Dr. Ledain for helping us give our dog a dignified, loving farewell. As heartbreaking as it was, the experience was also gentle and filled with love. We left feeling a deep sense of peace, knowing that he passed away surrounded by those who cared for him deeply.”

“I couldn’t have imagined a better person to be there with us through such a difficult time! Dr. Ledain was so gentle, caring and felt like a friend throughout the whole process! Instead of stressing my cat out by taking her to the ER vet & deal with a car ride, peaceful tails was there at our home (in a quick manner) to the rescue! I couldn’t thank her enough!!!”
