Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Ive always been an animal lover growing up, and though I have worked a variety of careers, I always ended up back with animals. I worked in clinical practice and enjoyed spending time with my clients, holding their hands as we talked through different disease outcomes and treatment plans, and, eventually crying with them during their last visit as they said goodbye to their pet. I wanted to provide in-home euthanasia so that people could spend the time saying goodbye at their own pace.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Frary was incredibly compassionate and gave us plenty of time to say goodbye to our cat Monkey. I can't believe the difference between in clinic and at home. Our good boy wasn't scared and I held him the whole time. For the circumstances it was a really good experience. I would credit that to Dr Frary helping us as much as Monkey through it.

Choosing to have your pet euthanized is a difficult experience, but we knew it was time for our cat as he had been struggling with the effects of HCM for weeks. We chose in-home pet euthanasia because Scout always hated being taken to the vet and we didn't want to cause further stress in his final hours. Fortunately Dr. Lauren Frary was near where we live and I had read great reviews about her work. I just want to add that they were all warranted. Dr. Frary was kind and engaged both with us and Scout. The process was explained in detail and we had plenty of time to say our goodbyes. The procedure went smoothly and peacefully. We're so glad we chose Dr. Frary for this difficult choice--she made it a much more pleasant experience.

Dr. Frary had the calmest, gentlest demeanor during the procedure. She was so good at putting me at ease. I appreciated that she recognized this was the best option for my elderly pet when other vets had ignored my concerns about my pet's comfort and mental state. Her compassion for the animals really shows. Thank you for making a hard thing easier.

Review by Dr. Lauren Frary

Dr. Frary was outstanding. She was very compassionate throughout the while process and very kind. She explained everything very well and let us take our time. We have never done an in home euthanasia but after doing this, it will be the only way I so it from now on. Loosing a pet is always the hardest thing ever and to make it a little better for them on the last day was the best thing I could have ever done. Thank you for taking the time to let us do this peacefully at home.

These experiences are incredibly difficult for everyone, but Dr. Frary made the situation aa comforting as possible. She was extremely sensitive to what was happening, and I strongly recommend her to others.

The decision to have to put an beloved pet down is a hard one. CodaPet made scheduling an at home service so simple that you could navigate it even when crying. The rates were less then we were expecting, and they had availability the next day. Lauren is a god send to grieving pet parents, and pets alike. She was calming, thoughtful, and very considerate. She explained the whole procedure, and somethings that we could expect so that there was no surprises. She was so sweet to Amber Blue, assessing her needs and giving her a calm presence. Our precious pup went quietly and comfortably after fighting lymphoma. We are very grateful to Lauren, and to CodaPet for offering this experience. We are also grateful for the option to cremate and get an urn and some keepsake ceramic paw prints. Thank you so much for everything.
