Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

At 16, I started working at an animal rescue and quickly realized that my love of animals was truly a calling, but it wasn’t until later that year when I began as an assistant at the local veterinary practice that I knew where I needed to be. I never looked back! My goal is to make sure that every animal knows they are loved and cherished, and that is especially important in their twilight years. Every pet should have a warm lap, a sunny spot, and a comfortable setting in their final moments, surrounded by love and family, and I am so honored to be able to facilitate that in Hampton Roads.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Erin was patient and understanding. My family felt supported during the difficult time. Dr. Erin provided comforting words and talked us through the process so we knew what was going on with our sweet fur baby.

She explained everything to us and as she would do what she needed to do to make our Shiver comfortable before putting him down. In fact she had to repeat saying things more than once since family members arrived at different times. She was also very patient and empathetic to our needs. She made letting go of our Shiver bearable. Thanks for your support thru this trying time.

Feels weird to rate the worst day of my life 5 stars, but Dr. Struble provided an amazing service for us since our Zuko had severe vet anxiety. Our girl didn't make it easy on her either, she wasn't fooled for one second that Dr. Struble was just a new friend coming to visit. Thank you, Dr. Struble, for helping us make Zuko's last moments as calm and serene as possible.

I do not have appropriate words to express my gratitude and appreciation for Dr. Struble and this precious service. We had to make this impossible decision very quickly, and I am so thankful that Dr. Struble was able to get to us within just a few short hours of scheduling. I am so thankful we didn't have to watch our precious Frankie suffer any longer, and that we didn't have to take him from his safety and comfort to do this. Dr. Struble was so patient and compassionate. She explained everything so well and gave us all the time we needed. She offered help and she even filled the role of therapist for me as I was breaking down and doubting my decision. Dr. Struble and CodaPet made one of the worst moments of our lives a little bit more bearable and we will be forever grateful.

Dr. Struble was so empathetic, calm, and patient with my grieving family. She helped us understand, answered all questions, and was very giving of her time. I am exceptionally thankful with how she handled my six year old daughter, who was losing a family loved one for the first time. She made one of the most agonizing days as peaceful as possible.

She was very professional and explained the process to my child that helped her process things. She gave us ample time with jersey to say our see ya laters.
