Dr. Heather White
Verified Veterinarian
Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
When I was 5 years old, I believed that I came up with the wonderful new idea of becoming a doctor for animals. My father gently explained that the concept had already been invented, but I could be the best vet there ever was! My role model growing up was James Herriot. I read every book he wrote at least three times, and by the time I got to high school, I was ready to help every animal in the world. Where other kids were getting the titles of Most Likely to Succeed, or Most Likely to Get Rich, I was voted as Most Likely to Become a Veterinarian. In my senior year of high school, I was selected into Mississippi State University's Early Entry Program which allowed me to complete by basic prerequisite courses and enter directly into Vet School. I graduated in 1997 and have been helping pets and their families ever since.

What pet parents are saying
I unfortunately had to have my sweet corgi put to sleep due to sudden, unexpected health issues. She was hospitalized at the vet for 2 days, and I couldn’t bare the thought of her not being able to be home for one last night and day. I was able to make an appointment with Dr. Heather on Friday afternoon when Abby was released from the vet to have her peaceful put to rest at home the next day. It was a true blessing at such a horrible time to have the option to have Abby at home where she was comfortable in a familiar environment. Dr. Heather was kind and thoughtful throughout the entire visit. She spoke to my Abby with love and you could tell you genuinely cared. I would highly recommend Dr Heather and Coda Pet to anyone faced with this decision.
Dr. Heather was very kind, thoughtful and talked us through every step, we are very thankful to have her to help let Loki cross the bridge peacefully.

Dr Heather White is simply amazing, her care and compassion are amazing. She has a heart that speaks for itself in her work. We will always be grateful for her
Dr. White came the same day I contacted her and she was amazing. She was very compassionate, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions. She noticed my daughter wasn’t handling the situation well and offered to put some of our sweet kitty’s fur in a little keepsake bottle. That meant so much to us both. Given the circumstances, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Using CodaPet was the absolute best experience. They got to us so quickly and it was such a peaceful experience. Highly recommend Dr White - we've got another sick dog and will definitely be using her and this service again. I can't say enough good things about it - you won't be disappointed.
