Welcome to Rainbow Veterinary Hospice, a family-owned and operated business!
Our mobile veterinary service provides one of the most needed services in veterinary medicine in Buncombe County, North Carolina: a familiar, at home, stress free place for you and your pet to spend the last moments together. Euthanasia is performed outdoors in what of your pet’s favorite areas. At-home euthanasia for your pet can include their own comfortable bed, under their favorite tree, on their favorite dock or boat, or any other outdoor place they feel safe.
