Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I saw Veterinary Medicine as the perfect field for combining my love of medicine with agriculture. While in private practice, I realized I had great compassion and empathy for those facing end-of-life decisions with their beloved pets. Privileged to perform a handful of in-home euthanasias while in practice, I was excited to learn of CodaPet’s mission to provide a peaceful, dignified passing for pets in the comfort of their own homes. I see euthanasia as the final gift an owner can give their pet, and having experienced having to put her own animals down, I know that being able to do so in a calm, peaceful setting is of paramount importance. I am excited to be able to offer this service to those in the Clarksville and surrounding areas.

What pet parents are saying

I can’t say enough good things about Dr Kristi Thompson’s kindness and compassion both before, during, and after this process. 10/10 would recommend. She thoroughly and professionally explained the process. She listened carefully to the long list of ailments our senior dog was experiencing. She then examined our dog and explained what was potentially treatable, and what the prognosis was. This allowed us the chance to make a fully informed decision before proceeding. I appreciated that, especially since it was a lethal one for a very loved family member. We never felt rushed or pressured one way or the other. I just wish there were people doctors who were as attentive, kind, compassionate, and laid out the various options to their patients.

Dr. Thompson helped us say goodbye to our sweet boy. A difficult moment made easier because he could be in his home, with his humans, and because she took the time to allow him to get to know and be comfortable around her. We sincerely appreciate her professionalism and kindness, and ensuring our beloved Sammy felt comfortable, safe, and loved.

Dr Kristi Thompson is a very caring and skilled veterinarian. She petted and soothed our sweet Dixie, and explained everything she was going to do. She gave us time and space to be with Dixie, and love on her so she could pass in peace. It’s so hard to say goodbye to our sweet girl, but Dr Thompson really made it as gentle and easy as it could be for Dixie. I highly recommend her for IN-HOME Pet Euthanasia. I would definitely use her again, to give my pet a peaceful, comfortable in-home passing. Diane Kolaski -Clarksville, TN

I cannot describe how grateful I am to Dr. Thompson. Choosing to say goodbye to my most cherished friend was a choice I had hoped I'd never have to make, but she walked us through the process and kept our spirits up. When it came time, her words allowed me to proceed with no doubts. Mittens, my cat of 18 years was calm through it all, and was treated with such dignity and warmth. A peaceful release was the final gift I hoped to give to her, and Dr. Thompson made that possible.
