Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I became a Veterinarian because I enjoyed working with people and animals, and thought I could do both as a Veterinarian. I have practiced small animal medicine and surgery for the past 31 years in a clinical setting, and am ready for a change in settings. I have preformed many euthanasias in those years, and my heart still hurts for those folks that have to say good bye to their 4 legged buddies. Euthanasia decisions are never easy, but I feel like it is our responsibility to make the process and painless and as compassionate as possible for both the pet and their family.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Stadler made this difficult situation as good as it could be. She allowed our family to take as much time with our special little guy after he passed. He seemed very comfortable through the process.

Dr. Lisa Stadler was fantastic in a very difficult situation. We wanted to euthanize our baby girl at home to help our grieving kids. She made the situation the best It could possibly be. We really appreciate her.

Review by Dr. Lisa Stadler

Dr. Stadler was absolutely amazing in helping us through this process. She reached out a few days in advance, offering helpful suggestions to manage our dog’s pain while we wait for our date. When she arrived at our house, she was incredibly compassionate, listened to our stories, and never once judged us. I felt horrible about everything because our baby was having a good day and was acting normal, but Dr. Stadler explained that this was likely due to the adrenaline from new people. She made me feel at ease with our decision. She explained every step of the process and gave us time to adjust. It was clear she truly cared about our dog’s comfort and well-being. I’m so grateful that we were able to give our baby the peaceful goodbye she deserved, in the comfort of our home and surrounded by loved ones as she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. 💕🐾

We had to say goodbye to our beloved spoiled fur baby Harley. We wanted to make sure he had a peaceful and comfortable end-of-life experience, so we decided to have him euthanized at home. I found CodaPet online and read great reviews about their services. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Lisa Stadler who came to our house . She was so kind and compassionate, and she took the time to answer all of our questions. She also made sure that Harley was comfortable and relaxed before she gave him the injection. The whole process was very peaceful and dignified. Dr. Stadler stayed with us until Harley passed away. She gave us time to ourselves with him to say our goodbyes. So grateful to her for helping us to say goodbye to our very very spoiled baby, in the best way possible. I would highly recommend CodaPet and Dr. Lisa Stadler to anyone who is considering in-home pet euthanasia. They are compassionate and professional, and they will make sure that your pet has a peaceful and loving end-of-life experience. So thankful for all she did.

We are incredibly grateful for the compassionate care we received during one of the hardest moments of our lives. Dr. ___ came to our home to help us say goodbye to our beloved dog, and her empathy and gentleness were truly remarkable. She explained every step of the process with clarity and kindness, checking in with us often to make sure we were comfortable and prepared. She gave us all the time we needed to say our final goodbyes and treated our pup with such tenderness and respect. It’s clear she has helped many families through this experience—she balances professional skill with a deep understanding of the human emotion involved. We couldn’t have asked for a more supportive presence, and we are so thankful for the care she provided.
