Verified Veterinarian
I decided I wanted to become a veterinarian after watching one carefully and methodically remove two dozen porcupine quills from the face of my family's Labrador when I was 8 years old. Early in general practice, I concluded that one of the greatest gifts we can offer our patients is peace in their passing. As the years went on, I realized doing so in the comfort and familiarity of the pet's home is yet another gift we can provide. And thus the desire to provide in-home euthanasia arose.

Dr. Houck was wonderful from our first interaction just after scheduling the appointment, throughout care and follow up. Her care and compassion for both my family and our pet helped to ease the pain of a very difficult situation. I can’t recommend her enough.
We recently used in-home pet euthanasia through CodaPet and was very pleased with how Rebecca Houck handled our dog Ozzy. She was so kind and thoughtful in handling Ozzy. It was helpful having him here at home during this time.
Using at home pet euthanasia, was the best decision I made. To have a pet pass in a home that he had so many memories and where so much love given made the experience peaceful for not only him but myself. I will recommend Dr Rebecca and this way to anyone who ask. I encourage anyone to use this service to help it be private and special moment between an owner and a pet. Travis and I will always have that moment and it’s all thanks to Dr Rebecca and this service.
I can't say enough good about Dr. Rebecca Houck. We chose at home euthanasia for our 2 dogs, 16 1/2 and 14 1/2. She was kind, compassionate, gentle, patient, and caring. It was a very difficult time for us, and she gave us the time we needed to say goodbye and to let our other animals say goodbye, and she never made us feel rushed. I highly recommend having in home euthanasia and Dr. Rebecca Houck. She made a heartbreaking experience easier. Thank you Dr. Houck!!
We highly recommend Dr Rebecca Houck. You can tell she's an experienced vet and knows what she's doing. My family was grateful we found her for this very difficult decision. The process went very smooth. Lil Man 9/2007 - 01/2025 ❤️
Dr Houck was knowledgeable and compassionate. Provided a comfortable end of life care for my beautiful dog. She was considering with her body after her death as well and made that experience bearable for me.
