Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
My lifelong passion for and commitment to family, animals, and humane treatment of all beings led to my career in veterinary medicine, which I am incredibly grateful for. Veterinary medicine is my calling. Upon proudly and humbly obtaining a veterinary medical degree, I served primarily in agricultural animal practice, specifically moving into advanced progressive equine podiatry practice. In addition but separate to this specialized practice, over the years, countless clients have sought my assistance with end-of-life care for both companion and agricultural animals, which allowed me to realize one of the greatest gifts veterinarians can give is to help animals experience as stress-free, compassionate and pain-free death as possible, and help people be at ease with their decision. In doing so, I have developed a profound appreciation for the honor of serving clients and patients in this capacity and I am now also offering this end-of-life focused care.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Alicia was like an angel who helped our family and our fur baby transition from this world. I have never met a vet who cared as much as Dr. Alicia, her communication was on point, she checked in with us before arriving, checked in afterwards to see how our broken hearts were holding up and then sent us a heartfelt note a few weeks later. She was professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, kind, caring, compassionate, tender and helped us through a challenging time in a way I've never experienced from a vet. To lose a pet who's been part of your family is heart wrenching, but to have someone as kind and caring as Dr. Alicia makes it that much easier. I would highly recommend her, she's a gift to our community.
Dr Nolfi is quite possibly rhe most amazing person I have encountered in my life. On what was one of the hardest days of my life, she came to me and my best buddy in the whole world and helped us both with his transition to the next life in the comfort of familiar surroundings while I held him and told him how much I loved him. Her compassion and obvious love for people and animals during this time and with follow up after the goodbye was more than I ever could have asked for. While I wish nobody ever had to do this, it is unfortunately a part of life, and the most loving thing you can ever do for your 4 legged friends. When the time comes, there is nobody else I could ever recommend more than Alicia Nolfi. She is quite possibly an angel in disguise
Dr Alicia Nolfi was sent by angels to help me through saying goodbye to my fur baby. My little girl had cancer and Dr Nolfi guided me through thinking clearly on what to do and then when it came time to say goodbye was so kind and thoughtful. She was so patient and thoughtful-I will never forget her kindness.
Dr. Alicia Nolfi from CodaPet made home euthanasia a beautiful experience. Dr. Alicia's preparation, euthanasia, and follow-up were treated with the utmost compassion and delicate care. She was flexible and accommodating with the timing. I highly recommend her.

She was a gift to us through a very sudden decline in health for our dog. She was tender and handled our sadness with great respect. She talked us through the process, so there was nothing that happened that we didn't understand. She had just helped us euthanize our horse a week and half earlier. It was a difficult few weeks and she was perfect during this very painful time in our lives. I highly recommend her.
