Dr. Lisa Fieg

Honestly, I don’t normally leave reviews but the experience we had with Dr. Lisa and an at home euthanasia was truly phenomenal. Whilst it was such a sad and heartbreaking time for us, being in the comfort of our own home and having our sweet dog Freud’s last moments be in his familiar surroundings with a vet that truly cared and was so kind, was extremely special. Like most pet owners we were battling with whether we had made the right decision, but Dr. Lisa took one look at Freud and said it definitely was the right time. He immediately went up to her and seemed extremely comfortable in her presence. It also seemed as though he knew what she was there for. We went with Freud out to our back garden. It was a beautiful sunny day and the sun was shining down on all of us. Freud was so calm and at ease. He rested his head on my husband’s lap we said our goodbyes and he gently drifted off for the last time. I feel so grateful for Dr. Lisa and the wonderful service Codapet gives for families going through this upsetting time. If you are wondering whether it is worth it or it makes a difference, I wholeheartedly say it does. My father was a vet, and I grew up taking my pets to the clinics and hospitals- but this experience was different. Thank you to Dr Lisa for making this a unique transition. We miss our boy, but feel grateful we got to say goodbye in this way.

A few sentences of the experiences of the CodaPet services would be completely out of context and not give a true representation of what we were feeling. Our dog loved to give boops, steal shoes when he cam inside, take walks, protect and defend us from attacking dogs, and suck his dinner down faster than a speeding SR-71 Blackbird. Then he got cancer that metastasized to his lungs , and we tried to keep him happy to enjoy all those things. We did radiation, chemo, and drug cocktails to kept him alive and happy for months after the diagnosis, months longer than he had originally been expected to live. The pain got worse, we tried another round of radiation, which worked for a few weeks, but then he got fussy over food. We would change to other tasty things for him to eat, which worked at first for a few days, then would work only for one meal, then he wouldn't eat. Because the cancer was in his leg he would hobble outside, clearly in pain, but kept his head up, laying on the grass, watching the world go by, still being a dog. He got so thin. One never knows the best time to do the euthanasia. If too soon, one feels they're depriving the dog of being a dog and enjoying life. Too late and the dog is just miserable and can't really be a dog any more. We may have had one or two more days before our boopy-boy couldn't be a dog any more, but there was no point in dragging out his agony any more. This was no longer about what we wanted, it had to be about what was best for him. Dr. Lisa from CodaPet was empathetic, caring, and knew how to make everyone comfortable, including the dog. He barked at the stranger in the house, always wanting to protect us, even if he couldn't even stand up. She showed us how to keep him calm and rest and not be aware when she gave him the sedative. He finally relaxed, the pain washing away, finally at peace at home on his own bed before she gave him the final injections. Dr. Lisa wrapped him in a blanket and we carried him to her car and we put him in the back, with some nice flowers arranged almost like it was in a funeral home. She gave us each a hug, acknowledging her job was not easy, and we pushed the button to close the tailgate, giving us our last view of our Boopy-boy, asleep, finally out of pain, leaving us with memories of a great doggie life and finally the end of a long struggle to keep him as happy as we could.

Losing our little man was always going to be the hardest and most painful part of having him our lives. But, if there was one thing that could make the experience any easier on both our pup and our family, it was having Dr. Lisa Fieg there to guide the way. She truly and absolutely cares. You can feel it from the she arrives. Saying goodbye to Arlo in the comfort and quiet of our home was so special. While we would do anything to have him back, we're so relieved to know that we did the best for him and feel so blessed to have had Dr. Lisa there with us. Thank you so much.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Lisa Fieg for the compassionate care she provided when helping our senior dog, Mochi, cross the rainbow bridge. Dr. Fieg was not only professional but also incredibly courteous and respectful throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand our grief and allowed us the space to say our final goodbyes to Mochi without feeling rushed. Her gentle and empathetic approach helped us navigate a very difficult moment with comfort and dignity. We are truly thankful for her support during such an emotional time.

We had Dr Lisa come to our house October 1st to help us help our sweet Beast crossover. Dr Lisa was so sweet and explained how everything was going to happen. She was so gentle with our baby,she was so gentle with us too. The entire experience was so calm and peaceful and at no point did she make us feel rushed. I'm so thankful that we decided to do the at home euthanasia. I wouldn't do this any other way. From the bottom of our hearts thank you so much Dr Lisa.

Dr. Lisa Fieg is an amazing, sensitive, highly skilled vet. She spent time learning about Angel, my 16 year old beloved mini poodle. She considered how to ease his transition by encouraging consumption of his favorite food (hard-boiled egg yolks) as she administered an injection to relax him. He was so thrilled to be indulged in 4 yolks that he gobbled them up, didn’t notice the injection, and immediately fell asleep with a gentle snore. She helped me pick the perfect urn for him—it was beautifully wrapped and it even comes with a tiny key for the heart lock. It was delivered with compassion by a kind driver who kept me closely informed of his arrival. I’m so grateful for Dr. Lisa. She’s truly the best, most loving person with whom to share such a painful loss. ❤️🥲🙏🏻

Losing a pet is never easy, especially for a young child. A year after being diagnosed with cancer, we finally made the hard decision to lay our fur baby Hachi, down to rest. Dr.Lisa Fieg was exceptional. She was kind and patient. Our German shepherd had never taken to strangers very easily, but he welcomed Dr.Lisa into our home with love and lots of kisses. It was as if they had been best friends all along. Dr.Lisa was very thorough in walking us through the process with a kind heart. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to lay my pup to rest. He never looked uncomfortable. In fact, it was the most at peace I had seen him in a long time. I am forever grateful to Dr.Lisa for making the most unpleasant situation as pleasantly possible under the given circumstances. Dr.Lisa was very thoughtful with every detail of the process. My 80 year old grandmother wanted to give our shepherd a kiss good bye , but couldn’t get to her knees , and Dr.Lisa suggested that she wait until we get him loaded into the truck so that he would be at her level. When we arrived at Dr.Lisa’s car, we were pleasantly surprised to see how she had decorated the back of her SUV. It was as if he was in a funeral home. She had decorated with flowers, it didn’t look like we were just throwing our pup into someone’s trunk. This is just one example of her thoughtfulness. We were all a mess of emotion and lacked mental clarity, Dr.Lisa’s helpful suggestions to our ever need was irreplaceable. Thank you Dr.Lisa from the bottom our hearts to yours for everything you were for our family today. ♥️

We couldn’t have had a more understanding compassionate Veterinarian than Dr. Lisa Fieg from CodaPet to handle our in home pet euthanasia. The stress of having to put down what we all considered a member of the family was just heartbreaking. Dr. Lisa prepared us and explained what she was going to do and gave more than ample time to be with and say farewell to our handsome little boy Joey (Ragdoll) cat. She treated the entire visit with the utmost compasion, respect and patience, allowing us time to prepare ourselves and never making us feel rushed. I can't recommend Dr Lisa enough for how she got us through this necessary event. It was all gentle, peaceful and looked painless. When a situation like this comes up, you don't know who to call or who to ask for, call CodaPet. I have already told a few friends and family members about our experience with Dr Lisa.
