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

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 Elysian vet for over 10 years and when we found out her time with us was coming to an end I asked about home care and she stepped up and did it herself at home. She showed us compassion and grace while we said our goodbyes. She took so much care of Elysian remains. I’m forever grateful to her for giving my family those few precious moments to say goodbye.

Review by Dr. Erin Struble

Dr Struble provides an invaluable service to both out pets and to us their parents. My elderly large dog was in pain from advanced old age and arthiritis. She was able to stay in her familiar home and routine, and passed away peacefully in her favorite place, with our little cat Jack faithfully at her side the entire time. Erin is a patient and compassionate doctor. She took her time and allowed the process to proceed at its natural pace and when I was ready. I have 3 other elderly pets and hope their journey allows them to have the same stress free, comforting transition when the time comes.

Review by Dr. Erin Struble

Dr Struble was amazing. She understood and could empathize with what we were going through at this most difficult time. We are grateful that she was there to assist Ginger and Snickers and she was there for us. Her concern for our girls as we said goodbye made this impossibly difficult process as bearable as it could be. She connected with Ginger and Snickers and explained everything to us. She truly cares For anyone that must go through this experience I would highly recommend Dr Struble

Dr Struble was so compassionate and understanding and explained the process. She gave us time to process and asking us before moving on to the next step. We so appreciate this service and having her come to our home so we could say our goodbyes to our sweet Lexi girl. Thank you Dr Struble and CodaPet.

It’s such a hard decision to make when your best friend has reached the point when he is suffering more than simply struggling. Dr. Struble is extremely compassionate and patient. She made sure my old boy was comfortable and that we could have the time we needed to say goodbye. She explained the process in a kind and quiet way, completely respectful of our feelings in such a solemn moment. Thank you, Dr Struble for helping us make sure Zeus had a peaceful journey over the rainbow bridge.
