Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

My motivation to offer in-home pet euthanasia comes from a deeply personal experience and a profound understanding of the bond between pets and their families. When I was a child, my family dog, Missy, was diagnosed with diabetes. Helping care for her during her illness was a pivotal moment for me, shaping my passion for veterinary medicine and deepening my empathy for both pets and their owners. Providing in-home euthanasia allows me to support families in a setting that is both intimate and comforting. From my experience, I’ve seen how much more peaceful and dignified it can be for pets to pass away at home, surrounded by their loved ones and in a familiar environment. This approach honors the special bond between pets and their families, offering a compassionate farewell in a way that truly respects their journey together.

Booking the appt was easy through the website. I had been thinking about at home euthanasia for months. I am so glad we decided to use Codapet. Dr Lisa Fieg was calm, caring and knowledgeable about the whole occasion and procedure. You really feel her empathy and respect for your situation and our Kingston. He was the best boy anyone could ever have. Thank you Dr Lisa for making Kingston’s transition so peaceful and dignified.

Dr. Lisa was fantastic! This was the first time for us to put a pet to sleep so it was difficult. Dr. Lisa explained every step and what to expect. She even gave us time after our cat passed to be quiet with her. Zoey our kitty was treated so well and we feel so blessed to be able to help release her from her pain. Thank you Coda Pet for a wonderful experience.

A few sentences of the experiences of the CodaPet services would be completely out of context and not give a true representation of what we were feeling. Our dog loved to give boops, steal shoes when he cam inside, take walks, protect and defend us from attacking dogs, and suck his dinner down faster than a speeding SR-71 Blackbird. Then he got cancer that metastasized to his lungs , and we tried to keep him happy to enjoy all those things. We did radiation, chemo, and drug cocktails to kept him alive and happy for months after the diagnosis, months longer than he had originally been expected to live. The pain got worse, we tried another round of radiation, which worked for a few weeks, but then he got fussy over food. We would change to other tasty things for him to eat, which worked at first for a few days, then would work only for one meal, then he wouldn't eat. Because the cancer was in his leg he would hobble outside, clearly in pain, but kept his head up, laying on the grass, watching the world go by, still being a dog. He got so thin. One never knows the best time to do the euthanasia. If too soon, one feels they're depriving the dog of being a dog and enjoying life. Too late and the dog is just miserable and can't really be a dog any more. We may have had one or two more days before our boopy-boy couldn't be a dog any more, but there was no point in dragging out his agony any more. This was no longer about what we wanted, it had to be about what was best for him. Dr. Lisa from CodaPet was empathetic, caring, and knew how to make everyone comfortable, including the dog. He barked at the stranger in the house, always wanting to protect us, even if he couldn't even stand up. She showed us how to keep him calm and rest and not be aware when she gave him the sedative. He finally relaxed, the pain washing away, finally at peace at home on his own bed before she gave him the final injections. Dr. Lisa wrapped him in a blanket and we carried him to her car and we put him in the back, with some nice flowers arranged almost like it was in a funeral home. She gave us each a hug, acknowledging her job was not easy, and we pushed the button to close the tailgate, giving us our last view of our Boopy-boy, asleep, finally out of pain, leaving us with memories of a great doggie life and finally the end of a long struggle to keep him as happy as we could.

Dr. Lisa Fieg took the time to immediately call me and discuss my pet's case when I made an urgent request online. She was willing to quickly drive to see us, but ultimately I needed to wait for my wife to come home from work, and we used another service who could come in the evening. I appreciated her informative and compassionate consultation, and it helped me get through a very hard day.

Honestly, I don’t normally leave reviews but the experience we had with Dr. Lisa and an at home euthanasia was truly phenomenal. Whilst it was such a sad and heartbreaking time for us, being in the comfort of our own home and having our sweet dog Freud’s last moments be in his familiar surroundings with a vet that truly cared and was so kind, was extremely special. Like most pet owners we were battling with whether we had made the right decision, but Dr. Lisa took one look at Freud and said it definitely was the right time. He immediately went up to her and seemed extremely comfortable in her presence. It also seemed as though he knew what she was there for. We went with Freud out to our back garden. It was a beautiful sunny day and the sun was shining down on all of us. Freud was so calm and at ease. He rested his head on my husband’s lap we said our goodbyes and he gently drifted off for the last time. I feel so grateful for Dr. Lisa and the wonderful service Codapet gives for families going through this upsetting time. If you are wondering whether it is worth it or it makes a difference, I wholeheartedly say it does. My father was a vet, and I grew up taking my pets to the clinics and hospitals- but this experience was different. Thank you to Dr Lisa for making this a unique transition. We miss our boy, but feel grateful we got to say goodbye in this way.
