Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I became a veterinarian with a specific mission in mind: to ensure that every animal receives the gift of a peaceful, pain-free passing. While veterinary clinics are places of healing, the clinical environment can often be a source of stress and anxiety for a pet in their final moments. I believe that every pet deserves to spend their last breath in the place they love most, surrounded by familiar scents and the people who cherish them. By bringing end-of-life care into the home, I aim to honor the dignity of each individual and transform a difficult goodbye into a gentle, private, and sacred transition.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Renee was fabulous to work with in this terrible situation. Very kind-hearted, very good communication about arrival time, the process with our dog and gave us all the time we needed with him. Would definitely recommend Dr. Renee and Codapet!
Dr. Renee Schott provides an amazing service. She turns a difficult time into an experience of knowing that your family friend moved on in a calm, painless, and peaceful manner. There’s no good way to go through this, but using Dr. Schott is a decision you will be glad you made. She makes your pet, you, and your family members all feel as ease with the transition.
Renée helped our family when we needed her help the most. She was very patient and understanding with the assistance we needed from her. It’s an unfortunate experience that she made the best she could. She was very accommodating, even after the procedure was done.
Dr. Renee was patient and kind. Making the decision to help your dog through the final stage of their life is very difficult, and filled with sadness and grief. We appreciate her thoughtfulness on this difficult day
First, she arrived 45 min later than appt. Normally I wouldn’t mind but I was holding my pet with the quilt I was ending his life as soon as Doc arrived. She was soft, kind, efficient. She gave me information what was going to occur. It happened so quickly and she was respectful. My next recommendation would be to tell me when I would receive my pets ashes. I called, text, for 10 days before the cremation center called me with reassurance that Toby had been there and cremated but would return to NB Vet. for another 4 days. I picked him up today. ( 2 weeks)
Dr. Renee took the time to answer our questions. She let us know when she was close to the house so we could be ready and she was patient as we said good bye to our sweet boy. Decidedly one of our worst days but we are grateful that she came to our home. Murphy was in his comfortable surroundings with everyone who loved him and we could grieve in privacy.
