When it’s time to say goodbye, the last thing a family in Bayside should be doing is coaxing a sick or elderly pet into the car and through Queens traffic to reach a clinic. Zen Dog Vet brings that care to you instead — the same gentle, patient send-off that families across the city and Westchester have leaned on, delivered at home.

Dr. Ray Spragley, a Certified Peaceful Euthanasia Veterinarian, comes directly to your door in Bayside. Your pet stays where they know best, close to the people they love, for every moment of their goodbye.
When Dr. Ray arrives in Bayside, he introduces himself and lets your pet grow comfortable before anything starts. He then explains each step to your family, and he doesn’t begin until you’re ready for him to.The sedative goes first, easing your pet into a deep and comfortable sleep. Once they’re fully relaxed and feeling nothing, Dr. Ray gives the final medication. The process holds no pain at any stage. Families in Bayside are often struck by how calm it all feels — many say their pet hadn’t looked that at ease in
months.
The appointment tends to take 45 minutes to an hour, though Dr. Ray never watches the clock. If your family needs more time, you have it.
