Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

From the time I could pronounce the word, I wanted to be a veterinarian (around 5 years old) and I never wavered from that goal. I have been a veterinarian for over 35 years and still love every minute of my profession. I never felt being a veterinarian was a career choice, but rather a calling. I have strived to provide the best care possible for my patients, with special attention to reducing their pain and suffering. To this end, I have many years providing home euthanasia for family pets. I have always felt profoundly honored to be chosen by a family to help their beloved pet pass from their suffering to a place where they are free. To do so in the comfort of their own home (or other special place) is so much more dignified and intimate for the patient and their family.

What pet parents are saying

As a vet I understand how difficult and awkward euthanasias can be for the vet and staff, but the Dr. made several off color jokes during the process and failed to read the room. My husband and I were suffering immensely and she was joking/loudly talking with our dogs. She was very kind and I know if she was told about this she would be more cognizant in the future.

My appointment was on a Wednesday but my pets health was declining fast. Dr Noe reached out to me while on vacation to let me know she would come on Monday instead. Dr Noe is so compassionate and caring. I will never forget what she did for us. Curtis and Wende Gross

Dr. Noe was absolutely a shining light in our families dark moment. She walked us through the process and made it easier to say goodbye to our best boy. Thank you Dr. Noe, you are an angel on earth.

Dr. Noe gave me so much peace about the decision to euthanize my cat. She confirmed what our normal vet told us that our cat's condition was bad and that it was a good time to put her down. She was so comforting and I'm so happy I chose to do an at-home euthanasia.

Review by Dr. Laurie Noe

Dr. Noe was fantastic. It was time for our 15 year old dog to pass on and Dr. Noe had a great bedside manner, especially with our kids who had never lost a pet before. Very kind, thoughtful, and professional. Thanks, Dr. Noe!
