I was devastated when I came to the realization that my Mazie girl was so sick that she wasn’t going to get better. I dreaded the final moments of her life ending in a place she hated to go. Thank goodness a friend reached out to me about Dr. Cara Mitchell! Dr. Mitchell came to the house where Mazie would take her final journey. Mazie was at ease (as much as possible). Dr . Mitchell explained step by step what was going to happen. Dr. Mitchells hugs and tears along with mine told me all I needed to know about her! I would highly recommend Cara Mitchell if you are facing the heart wrenching decision to put your fur baby to sleep. Dr. Mitchell is so patient, caring and understanding not to rush you with the final goodbye to your precious fur baby.
So very caring and kind. It felt like we had a very dear friend with us doing this difficult time. I will always be grateful that she was with us
Saying goodbye to a furry family member is NEVER easy. Being able to allow them to go without suffering in the comfort of their home is amazing. Dr. Hart was very professional and friendly and was able to make this event much easier. The price is nearly the same as taking the fur baby to a facility, which makes it affordable, private and very comfortable. I recommend CodaPet (Dr. Hart) when the time comes to say goodbye to your fur babies. Thank You, Dr. Hart
Oh, my. I don't even know where to start about the special care Dr. Brielle gave both Carmen and me. She was not in a hurry even though it was almost 7p when she arrived because she had to travel so far from the previous appointment but she stayed two and a half hours with us. She spent a lot of time observing Carmen to insure this was the right choice and gave me so much reassurance that it was definitely the right decision. That made me feel so much better. She gave Carmen so much attention and Carmen really liked her. That means a lot. She was gentle the whole time with all she did. I just can't say enough about the care she gave us. Without a doubt, I'd highly recommend her and definitely use her again if I ever have to. Thanks so much for sending us this wonderful vet. I'm so appreciative of all she did and her methods.
Even though we didn’t want to say goodbye to our beloved Collins, Dr Melissa was wonderful. Collie was struggling , Dr Melissa graciously came earlier than our appointment time, explained everything she was doing, assured us it wasn’t hurting Collins but relieving her of pain- she just made the inevitable more bearable. She gave us as much time as we needed with our pooch & cried right along with us. I was thankful we decided to go with CodaPet, it was easier for Collins to be at home with all of her family surrounding her. She left us peacefully, which was a major relief after so much worrying about her. It was heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. We were given more time with our Collie girl before Dr Melissa allowed our kids to get her ready to leave us. They carried her on a stretcher, where she was tucked in ever so carefully, to her car where she was treated respectfully and with love. I can’t begin to tell you how thoughtful Dr. Goldberg was through the before, during and after process.
It has taken some time to find words, alas. Lauren did a fabulous job of leading Leo and his folks through the process of departure. Leo's response was grateful resolution, I sensed. The humans were happy to be expertly ushered from dread to relief. We had done in-home euthanasia once before. It was most likely better than the clinic would have been, but it was not ideal. Lauren's final walk with Leo was everything he or we could have hoped for. Thank you, Lauren. Leo in better days: https://vimeo.com/51600401 https://verdadbelleza.wordpress.com/
I couldn’t have asked for a more empathetic veterinarian to help my sixteen year old cat make his final journey. It was gentle and peaceful and such a relief to know that he was no longer in any discomfort. Hearing him snoring away once Dr. White administered the initial sedative was a tremendous blessing. He could finally rest.
Can't thank Dr Christina Vernon enough for her caring and compassion. She has the biggest HEART and we could genuinely feel her sorrow with us in our loss of our Jiji. 🐈⬛ Dr. Christina went way beyond and I truly am thankful and greatful for her. 💗💐🦋🐈⬛ your home now Jiji 💓
Dr. Katie Todd came to my house on a Saturday night at 8pm, after having worked all day. My original appointment was to be Sunday morning at 845AM but she asked if I would like her to come that night. She came and explained the process which I know all too well, but this was the first time having this done at my house. She was so very kind and listened to a man who could barely speak at times without crying. I was able to just lay down with my cat and talk to him as he drifted off to sleep. She also made a set of pawprints for me to keep. I cannot thank her enough for what she did for me and my cat, Buddy. I am forever in her debt. She has a heart of gold to be offering this in home service. It costs more than the traditional vet but it is so worth letting your pet pass peacefully at home, not somewhere that they probably never liked to visit in the first place. Dr Todd will certainly be my first choice when I have to make this difficult decision again. Thank you so much Katie.
When you find yourself in an exam room at the emergency vet unexpectedly knowing you're going to have to say goodbye soon to your best friend, the last thing you want is to deal with logistics and scheduling and decision making. Our vet made it easy for us, hanging us a few brochure for vets that would come to our home - including CodaPet. We spoke with a triage person who set us up with a morning appointment with Dr. Neri so that we could have one last night together as a family. Dr. Neri was kind, considerate, and respectfully communicated timelines and what to expect. We prepared a place in our yard for Dizzy so that he could pass outside in one of his favorite places. Of course it started to rain as we were getting ready for those final moments but Dr. Neri was patient and flexible working with us as we didn't want to put him through the pain of relocating again at that point. Dr. Neri knew that we were uncertain we'd be able to make it all the way through the night before and offered to keep her phone on by her bed in case we needed her to come early. Fortunately we didn't, but what a relief to know she was willing to. Dizzy was comfortable with her and their interactions at the end. She was patient with our other dogs, and assisted us in one of the toughest times of our lives. We'll always be grateful.
My Girl Chloe was a cherished family member. Unfortunately, her health had declined and we had to make a life ending decision that was very upsetting for everyone. We could not bear to take her anywhere to have the euthanasia done. We thought it was important to have this done at home where she is most comfortable. The in-home pet euthanasia was done by Dr. Karen Duncan. We had not met Karen, but when she came, she immediately put us at ease. She took her time with Chloe, and was very compassionate and understanding. She was here with us for at least an hour and explained the process in detail allowing time for us to absorb the procedure as needed. She then wrapped Chloe up in a warm blanket and transported her with TLC. I cannot say enough about Karen and the process that was done at our house. It gave us complete privacy, a special time to spend with Chloe and the opportunity to send her off in a very quiet, compassionate, and cherished way. Karen is obviously a special person to provide a service for those families having separation anxiety from their cherished pets. We appreciate all that was done to help us send Chloe off in a quiet and dignified way. We would highly recommend this, if you want that special time helping that cherished family member cross the Rainbow Bridge!
Dr. Lisa Fieg is one of the most caring vets my family and I have met in many years. We recently had to put down our beloved 16 year old dog Dory. Dr. Fieg provided us a memorable last day with her and was respectful of our grief. She gave us plenty of time with Dory in her final moments and made sure to inform us what was happening every step of the way without rushing. I truly respect her and her work because she respected how Dory was more than just our dog, she was a member of our family. This experience was worth every penny and we would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you Dr. Fieg!
Dr. Cassandra Lewis was so kind during the entire process. Even before the appointment we were able to text her to ask questions and get reassurance that we were making the right choice at the right time. I’m so grateful we were able to give our fur baby, Callie, the peaceful and calm last moments she deserved. It’s never easy, but being able to be home, holding her, snuggling in her favorite spot certainly helped. Our other dog was able to be there as well, which I think helped him understand. I’m so grateful for Dr. Cassandra and although I hope you don’t ever need her - if you do find yourself in this situation, I would highly recommend her and doing it in-home as opposed to in a vet’s office.
Dr. Doolittle was amazing! We could not have asked for anyone better. He was kind and compassionate. He walked us through everything that would happen. We never felt rushed and he gave us time to say goodbye to our sweet dog. I would highly and will highly recommend Codapet and Dr Doolittle. Thank you so much.
Absolutely the perfect fit to help complete my adopted senior dog’s journey. Caring, compassionate and knowledgeable. Highly recommended from Cape Cod ,Ma.
Dr. Schmillen was kind, caring, and compassionate when our oldest dog, Yuki, experienced a sudden decline over the weekend. After calling numerous emergency vets and clinics with no luck, she was the first to answer~ and more importantly, the first not to turn us away. She brought comfort not just to Yuki, but to our entire furmily. Her presence gave us space to be together, to grieve, and to give Yuki the peace and dignity he deserved in his final moments. I’m incredibly grateful to her for the gift of a gentle, not rushed, loving goodbye through in-home pet euthanasia.
Dr. Doolittle was very sensitive, gentle and respectful to me and my beloved Jasmine. He was reassuring that this was the right time to ease her pain and help her transition. I’m so grateful to Dr. Doolittle for his kindness.
Highly recommend this option for pet lovers when the difficult time comes. Dr. Hundley was compassionate, clear, timely, and answered any questions that our family had.
This service is a game changer. Dr. Lauren was so kind and compassionate. This process is NEVER easy but the calm and peace I felt being able to offer relief to my beloved, aging pet's suffering in this way alleviates so much of the questioning and guilt. There were still plenty of tears, but we felt comfortable with Dr. Lauren right away. She eased our pain over the loss as well. I will always be grateful and would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. CodeaPet is truly a tender mercy.
Dr Lori was so incredibly empathetic and professional. She helped us send our furbaby over the rainbow bridge in our backyard under a tree on a sunny spring morning. She treated our Bear with compassion, dignity, and respect. She was so kind to us as we went through this very sad loss of our boy of 16 years. I will call her again to help my other aging babies cross the rainbow bridge when their time comes. Thank you, Dr Lori for guiding us and helping us through this difficult event.
Dr. Stephanie Norman was so caring and supportive. She made us comfortable with the process of having our cat (Toto) euthanized. We had him cremated and she delivered his ashes to us. She was very concerned for our surviving cat (Marvel) because had lost his lifelong relationship with his brother (littermate). She also recommended we take Marvel in as soon as possible for a health check due to his age. We took Marvel in. It hadn't quite been a year since his last vet visit. We caught a thyroid tumor early and were able to treat it early. He is doing great! We will bring him in for a follow up visit soon. Thank you Dr. Norman for helping us through a difficult time and for helping Marvel to live his longest and healthiest life possible❤️
This was the best possible choice for saying goodbye to our pet. Jessica is very informative, compassionate, gentle, humane and loving to both the pet and the humans! We needed someone to come out to our house right away. Jessica bent her schedule to fit us in at the last moment. She offered us options for afterwards, including take away of your loved one and help with deciding what to do with their remains. In our case it includes delivery to our vet when our cats ashes are ready to come home. She gave us a paw print of our kitty and a few other things. This was my kids first pet and my first time having to do this, so it was especially hard for us. I was very nervous and scared. This was perfect for our situation and for helping my kids go through it. I have already told a few people about our experience. I hope this place thrives and continues to do the great work they do. It takes a very special person to do this service. Thank you!
Dr. Hundley was very compassionate and supportive. We were glad that Sully was able to be at home in a comfortable and familiar space surrounded by those who loved him. We were very emotional but we knew it was the right thing to do. Dr.Hundley talked to us and Sully as he was crossing the rainbow bridge. She explained everything ahead of time and gave us time to make our own decision. She thought to ask if he had a favorite toy that he could take with him (which happened to be a tissue box - he is a boxer) and we sent him with his new blanket. She discussed private and group cremation, getting a paw print, clay print, or a Styrofoam print, and she thought to clip some of his soft fur from different spots with his different colors. I would highly recommend this service and Dr. Hundley for anyone who has to face this difficult decision.
Dr Lisa provided quality of care by demonstrating compassion and understanding for our process and love for our Luna. She was professional and emphatic.
Dr John made one of the worst days in our lives go as smoothly as possible. He was calm and compassionate. I was so glad we were able to use Coda Pet to help our Buddy over the rainbow.
Dr. Pruett.. Showed so much compassion and empathy when it was time for our Jackson to cross the Raindow Bridge She explained everything and did not leave my side . As I cried she held me and Jackson to comfort me. I am very grateful to her.
A more caring and sensitive vet as I’ve ever dealt with . Fantastic experience saying goodbye to my little pup! Thankyou! I will recommending anytime a friend needs this service.
Dr. Kristin Kemper was great during MJ's transition. Her bedside manner was very professional and empathetic, making the entire situation easier for us. MJ went peacefully, without pain.
Dr. Perzak of Codapet was warm, caring and helped us through the loss of our beloved Cobie. This is a wonderful service for us pet owners who don't want to put our babies through any more stress by dragging them to an office. Highly recommended.
Dr. Martin was so caring & did his best to explain every step. He was kind & soft spoken while we held our fur baby in our arms. He also was able to get our kitties ashes & paw print back to us in under 1 week. I do think he made a special effort to facilitate that. He was very understanding & supportive in our grief.
We recently had to make the incredibly difficult decision to say goodbye to our 13-year-old puggle, and we are so grateful to have had Dr. Lauren Rexing from CodaPet by our side during this emotional time. Dr. Rexing was compassionate, patient, and professional from the moment she entered our home. She took the time to answer all of our questions, gave our family space and time to be with our beloved dog, and offered comforting support both before and after the procedure. Her calm and gentle presence made an incredibly hard decision feel like the right one — helping us give our dog a peaceful and pain-free passing surrounded by love. We are deeply thankful for her care and for the service CodaPet provides.
We thank Dr Kemper from our hearts for coming to our house to release Pantera from end stage kidney disease. She was so compassionate and caring, told us exactly what to expect from each step. The procedure was fast and Pantera did not feel any pain. We still are in mourning, BUT we know we did the right thing for our sweet lil kitty and companion of 20 years. Thank you, Dr Kemper. You are a bright Light.
Saying goodbye to a pet is difficult and painful. The Doctor that came to our house via CodaPet was compassionate and gentle. She got down on the floor with our elderly dog and loved on him just as we do. She explained the whole process and gave us all the time we needed between steps. It was such a blessing for him to be at home in his usual sleeping spot when he passed. I can’t say enough about the ease of scheduling services and the care with which they were administered with the CodaPet providers. A huge shout out to Dr. Kirsten.
I can not thank enough Dr Diana Gersten for her kind service and support during the hard time of saying goodbye to my pet. Dr Gersten was very calming and sweet and professional on everything and I highly recommend her and this company.
Thank you, CodaPet, for helping make one of the most heartbreaking moments—saying goodbye to my sweet pup Mia—a little more bearable. Dr. Keri was incredibly compassionate and supportive throughout the entire process. She gently explained each step of the procedure, helping me understand what was happening and what to expect. What meant the most, though, was that it didn’t feel like just a service or a job to her. She took the time to ask about Mia, to learn what made her special, and to truly honor her memory. Thank you for being there for me—and for so many others—during such a difficult time. Your care and empathy mean more than words can express.
Dr Lori is an amazing person. She was so kind, gentle and thorough. She carefully explained every step of the process. She gave us opportunity to ask questions and think things through and even change our minds along the way. We were able to help our good boy cross over feeling safe and comfortable at home with his people. Thank you so much Dr Lori.
Dr. Perzak was a calming presence during the euthanasia of my sweet puppy. She was professional and did not rush us through the process. As painful as this decision was for me, I'm glad we were able to do it in the comfort of our home where our pup could be relaxed and not anxious in her final moments.
Dr. Hamid was a consummate professional. Her expert care was invaluable to us during Swayze’s end of life care. She was a kind and calm presence for all of us. Swayze’s appointment was so peaceful. There was no doubt that he was comfortable until the end. I cannot recommend this service more.
We recently had to say goodbye to my beloved dog, Cocobella. Dr. Corey made this heart-wrenching moment as bearable as possible. Her compassion, understanding, and professionalism provided immense comfort during a very difficult time. I am deeply grateful for the care and support they provided to both me and Cocobella. Thank you from the bottom of heart!
What an amazing experience during a time that was so difficult! My sweet Bentley was able to have a stress free transition being loved and held through it all! She was amazing!
When the time came for our final goodbye to our beloved pet, we decided in home pet euthanasia was our best option. We found Dr. Crawford online through CodaPet. CodaPet’s online scheduling made the process easy when talking about it was difficult. CodaPet’s website explained the process and contained information to answer all of our questions. Dr. Crawford’s compassion and calming demeanor was very helpful. We were given as much time as needed to say our goodbyes. I highly recommend Dr. Crawford and CodaPet.
They are not enough words to express how thankful I am for Dr.Cara and her in home services. She was so compassionate and professional during such a heard time for us. Our sweet boy was 15+ years old and I'm thankful he was able to be in the comfort of his own home. I feel for anyone having to make the decision but I couldn't recommend Dr.Cara Mitchell enough.
Our family was so grateful that Dr. Doolittle came to our home to assist our precious Koda pass without pain. Dr. Doolitte is a very empathetic and compassionate Vet; he also not only understood our heartbreak but explained the process of euthanasia. He was very gentle with Koda. Our family had comforted our precious senior German Shepherd in the stressful hours when we realized his time had come. He could not be moved so having Codapet come to our home truly made Koda’s passing very calm, peaceful and surrounded by loving family in the peaceful environment of his home rather than a clinical environment with strangers. When we realized Koda was closer to death than our appointment, Dr. Doolitte was able to come earlier, which not only helped Koda but our fears as well. Truly, I cannot say enough gratitude for Dr. Doolittle. It was a blessing that HE was the Vet who came to our home. Koda was calm, comfortable, unafraid, had no pain, and simply closed his eyes to our world. If you have a pet that cannot be moved or taken to your Vet - especially a paralyzed. senior 100 lb dog -, I highly recommend Codapet.
At-Home pet euthanasia When the time came to say goodbye to my beloved English Bulldog, the thought of taking him to a clinic for his final moments was heartbreaking. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Melissa Goldberg for bringing her exceptional care and compassion directly to my home. She arrived alone, yet her presence filled the room with a profound sense of calm and understanding, making an incredibly difficult situation a little more bearable. From the moment Dr. Goldberg stepped through my door, she exuded a quiet strength and empathy. She spoke to me with genuine kindness, acknowledging my grief and offering clear, gentle explanations of the process. There was no rush; she allowed me all the time I needed to be with Hitchcock and say my goodbyes in the comfort and familiarity of his own home. What truly set Dr. Goldberg apart was her incredibly gentle approach with Hitchcock. She handled him with such tenderness, ensuring he was relaxed and comfortable in his own bed. It was clear that she possessed not only remarkable veterinary expertise but also a deep understanding of the emotional bond between pets and their families. She made sure Hitchcock's final moments were peaceful and serene, free from any stress. This gift of a tranquil farewell, delivered in the privacy of my home, brought me immense comfort during my deepest sorrow. I am incredibly thankful for Dr. Goldberg's compassionate house-call service. Her dedication to providing such a personal and dignified experience for both pets and their owners is truly extraordinary. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a veterinarian who combines professional excellence with profound empathy, especially during such a sensitive time. Ann Pearlman
Dr. Stukey was amazing. I truly believe there needs to be more vets like her. She was genuine, caring and respectful. It wasn’t just a job for her and for that we are forever grateful! Thank you
Dr. Stephanie Norman came by our home as we made the extremely difficult decision to say goodbye to our beloved cat, Meow Meow. She was very patient, accommodating and understanding. She explained everything she was doing before beginning the process and did not make us feel rushed. Although it was very hard, we are glad we went through with doing the euthanasia home and that Dr. Norman was the one to be there to guide us through the transition.
Dr. Jackson was thoughtful, compassionate and helpful. He explained the process in detail, and provided a dignified and respectful service.
I can not say enough good things about CodaPet and Dr. Lewis. On-line scheduling was quick and easy we got an appointment same day (I requested the appointmentaround 1am and Dr. Lewis arrivedaround 6pm). With our dogs rapid decline it was absolutely necessary for her comfort as well as it was very important to us she could pass at home as we did not want her to have to go through the added stress of a trip to the vet in her last moments. Dr. Lewis was amazing to work with. She kept in contact and updated us throughout the day on ETA as well as general checking in to see how out Cassie was doing. During our appointment Dr. Lewis was kind and compassionate, she talked us through the process as well as gave us all the time we needed with Cassie. Having Cassie at home in her final moments was the best decision for our family, allowing the kids and other pets to say their good byes in the comfort of our own home was very healing and we couldn't have asked for a better experience on one of the worst days of a pet parents life.
We are incredibly grateful that Dr. Pruett was able to help our cat, Marty, pass in the comfort of his favorite place. Having the option to euthanize at home reduced so much undue stress during Marty’s last moments and it meant the world to us. We could not have asked for a more peaceful passing.
Dr. Fieg was sensitive, caring, unrushed and kind. Tiger went into a deep sleep before his leg was shaved and the catheter inserted for the final step. He spent his last moments with his family on his spot on the sofa. Worth the extra dollars to have everything done right. Sad but perfect.
I cannot recommend Dr. Treece enough, she was so kind and had a calming presence. Every step was explained thoroughly and taken at our own pace. It is an extremely difficult decision to put your dog to sleep, but Dr. Treece and her assistant made the hard time much easier and were very respectful of my pup all the way to the end.
I am so grateful for Dr. Elder and her willingness to help our pets comfortably cross the Rainbow Bridge. She was so kind and patient with us during the whole procedure. This was exactly what I wanted, and I am so happy we chose CodaPet with Dr. Elder. I would recommend this service 100 times over to anyone wanting their fur babies to pass at home.
Dr. Gary was wonderful at a time that was so very hard. I didn’t want my cat’s last memories to be at the vet clinic. He was extremely kind and professional. The process was perfect and never rushed, he gave the first injection (sedative) quickly that my cat barely even noticed. I highly recommend Dr. Gary for when the time comes you have to make the hardest decision to let your pet rest peacefully.
Dr. Alexandra Wolfingbarger was kind, caring, and just all around a warm presence to have during this difficult time. I'm glad we were able to send Boo off in a comfortable setting at home as she was always stressed with vet visits. Thank you Dr. Wolfingbarger for allowing a peaceful transition during a really difficult time in both Boo's life and mine.
Dr. Harper was possibly one of the most compassionate and gentle vets we have ever known. She made a very difficult appointment as beatiful and peaceful as it could have possibly been. I sympathized with her difficult duties with clients she had never met and never been to their home. She handled it all beautifully.
Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald was so kind, compassionate and understanding of the difficult decision it was to put down our beloved dog Bandit -our rescue dog of 15 years and one that we had before having kids! Dr. Delia really understood how painful this decision was and took the time to talk with me over the process and my concerns. She even shared her experience with putting down a beloved dog-so she gets it. I miss my Bandit dearly, but I know she is in a better place and I am so thankful of the support Delia was able to provide during that difficult time. Highly recommend Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald.
I would 1000% recommend Dr. Thompson to care for your pet. She took care of my sweet girl in her final moments and ensured she was comfortable and relaxed. She also took great care of me and my family too. Her kindness will always be remembered ❤️
Dr. Brielle was hands down the most compassionate Vet my husband and I have ever come across. She evaluated the situation and helped us in making the right decision for Ben. She explained everything and was never pushy and took all the time we needed for questions in making our decision. I would highly recommend her if you are making the decision on helping your love one pass over rainbow bridge. I thought it was very reasonable and 100 percent less stressful than the emergency vet. RIP Ben, momma and daddy loves you ❤️ 💙
For such a horrible situation, Dr. Jackson was very patient and let my family direct where we wanted to complete the process. Overall, I genuinely believe our girl was much more comfortable than she would have been in an office setting and she didn't seem anxious or in any pain with the help of the pre-medication. Although I hope to never have to do this again, I would repeat this process rather than go into a veterinarian office. Thank you Dr. Jackson for helping our girl finally be comfortable again.
Compassionate, friendly, understanding. It was the hardest experience of my life, but Dr. Gary gave us so much comfort. Went as well as I could have hoped for for something so devistating.
Dr. Norman is the best. If you find yourself in the same situation that our family did call her. Don’t look for anybody else. We promise you won’t regret having her help your family through a terrible time.
I highly recommend Dr. Bufford for your pets final care. She was empathetic without being overbearing. We were able to love Ikey until his last breath. We are so greatful!
Grief is tough, there's no way around it, especially when the one who departs is very close to your heart and is pretty much your furry twin soul. Dr Schmalz offered guidance and advice during the whole process and was very kind and compassionate with everyone involved in the process, especially with Jazzy Pizzazzy. I hope I never have to go through this experience again, but if I do, Dr. Schmalz will be my first choice. Thank you Doctor, for making everything more bearable.
Dr. White was so compassionate and empathetic to our family. Our dog was always nervous around strangers, so we were so worried his final moments would be ful of stress and anxiety. She took the time to talk to us about what she needed to do. And she was so gentle, professional and careful, I don't even think Scooby knew she was there. He went to sleep calm and loved. Dr. White listened to some of our stories, and then gently got him loaded and took care of organizing his cremation. We are forever grateful for this service which allowed us all to say goodnbye in our own backyard. It was truly such a blessing and Dr. White was absolutely wonderful.
This is the second time we’ve had the privilege of using Dr. Lisa to help one of our beloved dogs transition to the other side. While nothing can take the pain of losing a pet away, I can say without reservation that Dr. Lisa made the experience as peaceful and gentle as possible. Her genuine compassion for both animals and their grieving family members is evident from first contact to last breath. We are so thankful we were able to say goodbye to our precious Isla in the comfort of our home, rather than adding the stress of a vet visit to her final moments. We also are eternally grateful that we had someone as caring and empathetic as Dr. Lisa to help us during such a difficult time.
We had to make a very tough decision to send our beloved 15 year old Natty to dog heaven. Michelle made this a peaceful process. Because of Michelle we know Natty is in a peaceful place. She was very polite and understood our pain. I would recommend Michelle to anyone that has to go through this.
I cant say enough kind words about Dr. Holman. She was professional, took her time and she was incredibly calm and patiently explained every step. She was amazing with my sweet pup, talking to her and making sure she was 100% comfortable.
She was very business like - and talked a lot of small talk through the agonizing process . I do not recall her ever saying she was sorry for my loss . And she caught my dog off guard with the first sedative and he screamed at the top of his lungs (he never did that with needles ) that was the last thing I remember him doing - then he wen out . Sad last memory . I appreciate what these vets do, but if your empathy is gone , it’s time for evaluation . This was the hardest thing I have ever done . Coda pets charged me 50.00 for her to shave a spot on his tail and give it to me . I will be leaving a public review soon .
We were facing the agonizing experience pet owners face when our beloved Joey, a mixed breed rescue dog we had for over eight years. He was approximately 15 years old and his heart was giving out on him. I had searched in-home euthanasia on line and found CodaPet. Dr. Lori Schmalz came to our home to help us end Joey's suffering. Dr. Schmalz was calm, caring, and compassionate. She checked Joey's heart, and agreed with our vet that it was time to have Joey peacefully put to sleep. Dr Schmalz made this most difficult decision we make as pet parents as calming and peaceful as possible. We would highly recommend CodaPet, and Dr. Lori Schmalz to everyone who need to help their pet transition peacefully, not only for the pet but also for the loving "parents" of the the pet!
One of the hardest things I've had to do in my 36 years is putting my 13 year old dog Grom down. He took a drastic turn overnight and I knew it was his time. I found Coda pet online and gave them a call. Dr. Lori Thomas was able to see us the following day due to his severe decline. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Lori. professional, caring and understanding. Made such a difficult time for us a little easier. I felt as if I gave him the dignity he deserved with in home pet euthanasia to make my grief a little more bearable.
Thank you, Dr. Schmalz, for your kindness and compassion while I was dealing with the transition of my boy Bentley this afternoon. I never felt rushed or awkward while I blubbered and cried and listened to his last breaths. You gave me plenty of time to be with him as long as I needed. I was so comforted with how peaceful he looked all bundled up in blankets and his head resting on a pillow. It may seem weird, but that's now one of my favorite pictures of him. Thank you.
The entire process from scheduling to the home visit was professional, compassionate, and comforting. Dr Lauren Frary explained everything she was doing and what our pet was experiencing clearly and compassionately . She allowed us as much time as we needed to say good bye.
Dr. Sara was awesome! She came a day earlier than scheduled, knowing my kittie was not doing well. Having my kittie put down at home was less stressful on our cat and us than taking her to the vet. Dr. Sara was also able to handle the cremation services afterwards. The cost was the same or less than what we would have paid at our vet. I would highly recommend having your pet euthanized at home. Thanks again, Dr. Sara!
Dr Norman was so very gentle, patient, calm and accommodating during this very difficult passage for my beloved companion cat of 16+ years. There simply is no easy or painless way through these times when our pets look to us to be brave and strong for them. But Dr Norman made it the best it could be. I'm very thankful she was available for us and walked this thorny path with us. Thank you, Codapet Team.
Dr Lara Allison was compassionate, professional and went above and beyond to ensure that my beloved dog, Nala passed peacefully and comfortably. She spent time with me looking at photos and listening to stories I shared about Nala. I highly recommend Dr Lara and cannot say enough food things about her. Truly one of the best people to have by your side at the end of your pers life.
Dr. Shannon was compassionate and professional while she helped our girl pass. She explained what to expect and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye. I could not have asked for more.
We were so thankful to have Dr. Houck come to our home and help us to say goodbye to our beloved Jake. She was very kind, compassionate and we knew that Jake was comfortable. Dr. Houck explained what was happening every step of the way and her calming presence made this so much easier to cope with. She even offered a hug at the end. Highly recommend this service!
It was so amazing to have such a wonderful.compassionate and caring provider to help our family with such a difficult time. Dr. Hemmer was absolutely amazing from my first contact with her I knew my decision to choose this option and provider was right. I can’t praise her enough with mere words. I miss my Grizzy Bear every single day since her passing but I know she passed in the most gentle way, with kind and loving care. My children were all with her and I was able to lay down with her and feel last beat of her heart. I never sensed any bit of fear, pain or stress in her and I know she left me in the most gentle way. I am forever grateful for Dr Hemmer’s care and I know she cared for my dog in the exact way she would have wanted her pet cared for! Thank you so much.
