Errand of Mercy is a family owned business that emphasizes compassionate end of life care for companion animals including cats, dogs, birds and exotic small mammals. Our goal is to help make your companion’s final moments comfortable and peaceful. Home visits are by appointment only.
Drs. Layle and Scott Echols have combined experience of over 40 years as veterinarians.

As veterinarians, we understand that euthanasia is a privilege meant to end the suffering of terminal illness or severe chronic pain in animals. If you would like, we will contact your veterinarian after the euthanasia process to inform them of your pet's passing.
