Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
From the time I could pronounce the word, I wanted to be a veterinarian (around 5 years old) and I never wavered from that goal. I have been a veterinarian for over 35 years and still love every minute of my profession. I never felt being a veterinarian was a career choice, but rather a calling. I have strived to provide the best care possible for my patients, with special attention to reducing their pain and suffering. To this end, I have many years providing home euthanasia for family pets. I have always felt profoundly honored to be chosen by a family to help their beloved pet pass from their suffering to a place where they are free. To do so in the comfort of their own home (or other special place) is so much more dignified and intimate for the patient and their family.

What pet parents are saying
Thank you Dr. Laurie Noe for making Little's last moment with us peaceful. It's our first time losing our fur baby, we weren't sure if we were making the right decision or even what to do for our Little. Dr. Noe made us feel comfortable throughout the process while getting all the necessary steps done. Also gave us extra time saying last goodbye.
Dr. Laurie Noe and her colleague were extremely compassionate, knowledgeable and kind professionals. The entire family was truly impressed with Dr. Noe's bed side manner. She came out the same day I needed her services (weekend). She and her colleague had tremendous compassion for the process and educated themselves on our situation prior to arrival. Dr. Noe listened and gave advice accordingly. She made me feel better about my extremely difficult decision. I highly recommend Codapet and Dr. Laurie Noe during a difficult time like this. I also received a card in the mail afterwards. 5 Stars!
We can't say enough good things about Dr. Noe. She made a very hard experience easier with her kindness and empathy. She explained what was happening in such a beautiful way to our children and helped them create keepsake memories. She was quick to respond to my same day request, kept in communication, and made the whole process seamless which was greatly appreciated.
Dr. Noe made a hard experience much easier with her empathy and professionalism. She helped our children feel included and created a peaceful environment for us to say goodbye to our sweet kitty.
As a vet I understand how difficult and awkward euthanasias can be for the vet and staff, but the Dr. made several off color jokes during the process and failed to read the room. My husband and I were suffering immensely and she was joking/loudly talking with our dogs. She was very kind and I know if she was told about this she would be more cognizant in the future.
Dr. Noe was so kind and supportive to our family when our sweet cat was so ill that he needed to be euthanized. I would highly recommend her compassionate services.
