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
Dr Noe was extremely helpful and gentle with our pet. She kept in communication prior to our appointment, answering questions we had. She was sensitive throughout the whole process and we deeply appreciated the kindness, caring and complete professionalism.
In a very difficult and heartbreaking situation we were in Dr. Laurie Noe was very understanding and compassionate towards our family and our beloved pet. She gave us the proper time to say our goodbyes to our beautiful Bella. They took good care of her in her last moments. Thank You so much Dr. Noe, our family is grateful for your compassion towards us.
I am incredibly grateful for the compassion and care Dr. Noe showed during one of the hardest moments of my life. They came to my home to help peacefully put my dog to rest, and the kindness they brought with them made an unbearable situation just a little easier. They were gentle, patient, and respectful with both my dog and my family. They explained everything clearly, never rushed us, and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye. My dog was calm and comfortable, surrounded by love, and I’ll always be thankful for that. It takes a special kind of person to do what they do, and they handled it with genuine empathy. I recommend Dr. Noe to everyone!
Very kind and compassionate. She did everything to make sure our Belle and our family were treated with dignity and respect. This is the second time we have used Coda. It is the best possible way to send your beloved pet to Heaven .
Dr Laurie Noe is gentle ,kind and loyal to put Holly to sleep. She held me when i cried 😢. I was so. impressed with the she took Holly with her. I just said goodbye Holly. We will meet in heaven someday soon.
Putting my beloved Avery down was the hardest day of my life. While there is no easy way to do that, Dr. Noe made the experience so much better. From the moment she came to my house, her calm presence put everyone at ease, including my dog. She was professional, yet spoke as if she had known Avery for years. She gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye to our baby without feeling rushed. After Avery passed, Dr. Noe gave a heartfelt speech and hugged us all. I couldn't imagine having to euthanize in any other way.
