Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

My enduring passion for veterinary medicine traces its roots back to my earliest memories of being surrounded by animals. From a young age, it was clear to me that I wanted to dedicate my life to caring for these incredible beings. My career aspirations have taken various forms over the years, from envisioning myself as an animal trainer for movies or captivating audiences at Sea World to picturing a future as a ranch owner tending to a diverse array of animals. However, beneath these varied dreams, the unchanging core has always been the desire to become a veterinarian. What propels my aspiration in the field of veterinary medicine even further is my desire to practice In-Home Euthanasia (IHE). This passion has been amplified by my firsthand experiences of the profound positive effects animals can have on human well-being, some experiences I've gained primarily through my involvement with Aggieland Pets with a Purpose (APWAP). These organizations have shown me the immense power of the human-animal bond, and they've underscored my dedication to preserving and enhancing this bond. I offer in-home euthanasia services as a compassionate way to honor the strong connections people share with their pets during one of life's most challenging transitions. This is a meaningful path that allows me to not only ensure the health of animals but also to support and educate owners about the sensitive and emotional aspects of saying goodbye to their beloved companions.

Getting to spend my baby’s last moments with her at home, on the bed, all cozy, is something I’ll treasure forever. Dr. Pruett was so kind and thoughtful, we are lucky to have this service in town.

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Pruett for her exceptional care and support. From the very beginning, it was clear that Dr. Pruett was not only a highly skilled veterinarian but also deeply compassionate and dedicated to providing the best possible experience for both my cat and I. Understanding my concerns about my cat's anxiety and the importance of a friendly environment, Dr. Pruett went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was as stress-free as possible. Her approach was not just professional but also incredibly warm and empathetic. Thanks to Dr. Pruett my memories are not solely marked by pain and grief they are also filled with the presence of an awesome professional and an incredibly empathetic human being, filled with kindness. In a way, whenever I begin to mourn, I find solace in remembering the extensive care Dr. Pruett provided for both of us. I am truly grateful for the outstanding level of care and attention we received at CodaVet and from Dr. Pruett. Dr. Pruett you are my hero. Thank you for being there, for your kindness, patience, and for making such a positive impact.

We were very pleased how CodaPet was very informational with the whole process. Dr. Pruett was gentle with our beloved Copper and with our family. There are no words that can explain the great experience we had in our time need. Thank you Codapet. We definitely will recommend Codapet to our friends and family for their fur babies.
