Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Early on, I had a tremendous fascination with animals of all kinds, I found comfort and compassion from them in times of need as a child and on into adulthood. In elementary school, I would be the first to take care of the class pet. There were many: anoles (lizards), hamsters, and guinea pigs to name a few. Science classes intrigued me and were where I excelled. My anatomy class in high school sealed the deal. Ultimately, I wanted to care for animals and challenge myself to solve medical problems. Over time, it progressed to caring for not only the animal but also for their human owners. I have always offered at-home euthanasia services, having performed them for my own personal pets, and I realized the more peaceful experience for all involved. The last several years I've provided oncology (cancer) services to clients and their pets. With this comes the knowledge that even with treatment, most cancers will be terminal, and providing in-home end-of-life service to the numerous pets I treated in this capacity reinforced firsthand how beneficial in-home euthanasia is to the pet and their family when it comes time, allowing for the most gentle and tranquil passing.

We had to make a very difficult decision regarding our long-time pet of 18 years. He was a special part of our family and Dr. Krueger assisted us through this heartbreaking process. She was professional and compassionate and I highly recommend her if anyone finds themselves in this sad situation. She absolutely made made a positive impact on this extremely unbearable situation.

Dr. Jenny Krueger works with compassion, care, and patience. She is there both for the pet (in my case a very beloved Corgi) and the human. Having needed to euthanize pets both at the vet and at home, being able to do this at home makes a terrible experience so much calmer. Setting everything up through the CodaPet interface was very easy and the fact that the portal gives you options about what kind of follow up you do or do not want was very respectful. I could not recommend Dr. Krueger more highly; her gentle care at such a wrenching time helped to confirm that we were making absolutely the right choice.
