The Angel’s Paws Experience
When you are facing that difficult transition of the loss or impending loss of your pet…we can help. We take the journey with you from pain to peace. Our approach is different…very different. We offer a multidisciplinary team to support “all” family members through the process. Our team is composed of Veterinarians, Registered Vet Techs, Licensed Human Therapists, Chaplains, and Volunteers. As you face the end of your pet’s life, we work with you and your primary care vet to design a plan that gives you the most comfort during (no doubt) one of the most trying times of your life. We listen intently to what your goals are and design an experience to match. We offer complete end of life services for your pet and your pets family with one phone call. We offer pet hospice, home euthanasia, private cremation, funerals and memorial services, pet loss support groups and grief counseling. Greater detail for each service can be found under the services tab. We will customize our service to you and your pets specific circumstance to give you as much peace as possible.
Our Mission
Our mission is to be a blessing to people by helping them connect to the support and resources they need for the loss or impending loss of a beloved pet.
Philosophy
We believe pets are members of the family. Facing the end of a pet’s life can be a very sobering, and sometimes lonely experience. Angel’s Paws is passionate about providing options to families who hear the words no pet parent wants to hear… “your pet has a terminal illness.”
When faced with an impending death of a beloved pet, a rush of emotions can make decision making difficult. Having a full complement of options and having the time to process the options is one of the most valuable things that could occur, yet that seldom happens. Our goal is to sit with you and allow you time to process the options so that you are able to come to terms with the news and make a decision you can live with. Preparing for the end is an important first step in the healing process. We are great listeners!
Service Areas
Greater Cincinnati — We come to you! OHIO: Our fees are based on travel within the I-275 loop in Cincinnati or within 25 miles of Blue Ash. KENTUCKY: We offer home euthanasia and cremation services in Northern Kentucky. INDIANA: We do not serve in Indiana at this time.
Outside our service area? We are able to offer services in a home-like setting at our building in Blue Ash as an alternative.
May 2024 update: Our service area has changed and we are no longer able to travel beyond 25 miles of Blue Ash. We know that we have served families in the past outside of that area that will no longer be able to receive our services at home … for that we are deeply sorry. We are, however, able to offer services in a home-like setting at our building in Blue Ash as an alternative, to provide the same Angel’s Paws experience for your pet and family.

Our Team
We have assembled a talented team of compassionate professionals to serve you and your pet. Modeled after human hospice, we have a multidisciplinary team to meet your needs on the many levels necessary at this critical time in your pet’s life.
Tammy Wynn, MHA, LISW, RVT, CHPT – Founder & CEO
Fellow animal lover and proud pet parent, Tammy Wynn, gets it!
She is…The Pet Loss Coach!!!
The final illness and death of a pet can be as traumatic as the loss of any loved one–sometimes more so. But, unlike a person, there’s not much of a support network for grieving pet owners. That’s why Tammy Wynn, a licensed social worker, hospice care specialist and Vet Tech, founded Angel’s Paws to give pets the same end of life support that their human owners get–plus help for the pet owners, too. Pet loss is a profound experience.
