who we are

Comforting Creatures is an independently owned veterinary home care practice on the westside of Los Angeles.  We specialize in helping families with elderly or terminally ill pets.  

We provide at-home euthanasia, assistance with aftercare, quality of life consultations for families wrestling with the decision to euthanize a beloved family member, and hospice consultations.

We know that pets are four-legged family members, and we love your pets as our own.  

Dr. Shana developed a passion for elderly pets and pets with chronic and terminal illnesses during her years as an emergency veterinarian.  After settling in Los Angeles, she founded Comforting Creatures in order to help families give their four-legged family members loving care in all stages of their life.  

Dr. Shana is certified in animal hospice and palliative care and was honored as the Veterinarian of the Year by the University of Georgia.
