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

We would like to thank Dr. Noe for her generous support and kindness helping us take care of our sweet boy Cosmo. Cosmo took a sudden turn for the worse at not quite 18 years old and we were faced with making a decision we knew was best for him, even though our hearts were breaking. Dr. Noe was able to arrange her schedule very quickly and confirmed a time for us. When she arrived, she confirmed Cosmo's condition was as we thought, making it comforting to us we were making the right choice for him. She was so gentle and made sure he was comfortable and gave us time to spend with him before and after he passed. We will be forever grateful to her.

Dr. Noe was caring and gentle with our Frenchie. This was our first time having a pet euthanized at home. She was sensitive and compassionate. I would highly recommend her for your fur baby.

Review by Dr. Laurie Noe

Doctor No was very compassionate and sympathetic to the situation. She talked me through the process and was very gentle and kind. She also sent a note afterwards, expressing her sympathy on the loss of the dog. This was an unusual situation since my nephew and niece was not available during the last moments she was kind enough to take a paw print so that they would have a memory. I relayed all this to them and they were very happy with her service

Thank goodness for Dr. Noe. We weren't aware of all of our options to help us with our suffering dog. We found that in-home euthanasia is the best option, by far. Think about how stressful is would be for a dog, that doesn't even want to be moved, to go to a vet office. CodaPet is who we chose and Dr. Noe was very comforting and made us and our dog feel at ease from start to finish. I should add that she was in no rush and gladly took the time for us to say our goodbyes. I highly recommend CodaPet and Dr. Noe. Thanks again!

Dr. Noe helped put our 20 year old cat to rest. When we put our two other pets to sleep they were awful experiences due to the veterinary offices and their actions. Our cat and dog were mishandled and panicked. She explained the process well, made us feel comfortable during an awful time and made Smokie comfortable until her last breath. She also made some paw prints for us and put her in a blanket in a basket on her way out so we knew our cat was in good hands. Home euthanasia is highly recommended to those parents that don't want to give their babies the added stress of a car ride and a vet office. The price was very reasonable compared to going to the vet the last time we put down our loved one.
