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

When our cat came into our lives, as an adult, he was a promise to keep. When he left us, Kit-Kit had become a beloved member of our small family, and a person, at least, to us. He was already struggling with old age, vision and renal failure when his stroke happened at 16-17 yrs old. On short notice, on a Saturday, we able to find a recommendation for CodaPet, who connected us to Dr. Nolfi. When she arrived, on Monday morning, and met Kit-Kit we knew immediately we had made the best decision available to us. Our friend passed peacefully, painlessly, in his favorite spot, with my wife and I on either side of him. At all times Dr. Nolfi expressed care for our friend and acknowledged the personhood we saw in our pet. We felt her concern for us going through this process as well. Both my wife and I are deeply thankful to Dr. Alicia Nolfi, for her compassion, professionalism and willingness to come to our out of the way rural neighborhood. I would refer her service to anyone who has a pet in need, especially when that furry friend can't travel. We are thankful to the local vets who recommended that we reach out to CodaPet.

Alicia was amazing. She is kind and patient. Informed us of each step in the process. We told stories and laughed and cried. It was a beautiful and fitting passing for our dog and Alicia was just wonderful. This is a very hard thing to do and having someone as caring as Alicia makes it just a little easier.

Review by Dr. Alicia Nolfi

I don't know that there are adequate words to describe how much I appreciate Dr. Alicia. She helped us with a difficult transition in sending our beloved fur baby over that rainbow bridge. Her compassion, caring, and attention to the heaviness of the moment for us was something I will always remember and be thankful for. Thank you so very much for being there for us and our Freddie girl when it was the most difficult.
