OUR STORY


What was the inspiration behind our name?


When we assist with a pet's passing, we often express to parents that their beloved are receiving their "angel wings". After all, they truly act as our Earth angels for the brief time we get to enjoy their presence; it is only fitting they are bestowed such gifts upon transitioning.


Additionally, in this specialized area of veterinary work clients often remark that we were their "angel" during this difficult time; we truly cherish such touching sentiments and feel honored to be able to help pets peacefully transition.

SPIRITUALLY ALIGNED MYTHOLOGY


...In Norse mythology, valkyries are divine, winged battlemaidens who select slain warriors from the battlefield, choosing those worthy of being honored in the afterlife for their valor. Valkyries guide the heroes on their journey as they transition from the mortal world to the divine realm.


Accordingly, we liken the angelic valkyries - guiding the noble warriors towards the afterlife - to the graceful transition we provide to our heroic pets at the end of their lives; honoring their journey with dignity and love.


The alignment of these elements inspired our name and vision for Angel Wing Vets that is fittingly exclusive to the City of Angels itself.
