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.

This service is a game changer. Dr. Lauren was so kind and compassionate. This process is NEVER easy but the calm and peace I felt being able to offer relief to my beloved, aging pet's suffering in this way alleviates so much of the questioning and guilt. There were still plenty of tears, but we felt comfortable with Dr. Lauren right away. She eased our pain over the loss as well. I will always be grateful and would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. CodeaPet is truly a tender mercy.

Dr. Frary treated my Meg as if she were her beloved kitty. The kindness and compassion she showed both of us made the experience personal and private. Being able to goodbye while Meg was on her favorite blanket in her favorite spot was priceless. Thank you for making that possible!

Dr Lauren was great! This was our fourth pet we’ve had to put down, and Dr Lauren made the experience a calm and peaceful one for our family. She’s very empathetic and gave us plenty of time and space to say our goodbyes.

Our dog seemed to develop a condition where he was becoming paralyzed from his tail to his head. It was over the course of a couple of weeks. We took him to 4 different vets who “treated the symptoms” but nothing worked. It cost us a couple of thousand dollars and we were no closer to a solution. He was suffering and they refused to euthanize him bc he was ‘too young”, being only 5 yrs old. We were so sad watching him diminish daily w no real help in sight. Dr. Lauren Frary came to our home and was the most kind and loving w him and us. She handled the situation very professionally. Of course we didn’t want him to go. We love him dearly. We just didn’t want him to suffer, and he absolutely was, w no real diagnosis or end in sight. We cannot thank Dr. Frary enough for her kindness and help during a time that was super difficult. It had been made so much worse than necessary by others who just wanted to run more tests but w no real solutions. Thank you w all of our hearts for your service!

Review by Dr. Lauren Frary

I was super grateful for Dr Lauren’s kindness during the whole process. Making the decision to put my best bud of 18 years down was so difficult but her kindness, grace and professionalism made it a little easier. I appreciate her texting earlier in the day, and allowing me to ask questions and process it all. I appreciate the space that she held for me, allowing me to take what time I needed and the way she explained the whole process.
