Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

In all the roles I've had in veterinary medicine, the part I found most fulfilling was supporting animals and their owners through end-of-life care. I have been doing hospice work for over 10 years and truly find it an honor to provide a peaceful, pain-free transition for beloved companions.

What pet parents are saying

I recommend Dr.Dover 1000%! I had to put my baby boy Romeo down after 16 years. He was with me when I was 19 and I’m now 35. He was 9 months old and a rescue when I rescued him in 2009. May 1st 2025 is the day I put my baby boy (Yorkie) to rest so as you can probably understand I wanted to make sure he was comfortable and he was able to pass in the comfort of his own home. I was hoping that he would pass away on his own but his Vet said that it was time. I called around to a few places for at home euthanasia but my heart just didn’t feel right until I found Coda pet. I was a little nervous because it wasn’t just putting a pet or animal to forever sleep, it was putting one of your family to forever sleep. So I didn’t know if bringing in a stranger would stop me from giving up the best goodbye and I didn’t want to hold back, but the moment Dr.Dover walked through my door I felt a sense of comfort and relief. She was very thorough, kind, patient and talked me through each step of the way. During the process she would periodically check in to make sure that me and my family were ok. She gave us a safe space and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to help take my baby boy over the rainbow bridge. He passed away peacefully in my arms. She let me know it was ok if I took hours or even just minutes to say goodbye. I didn’t feel rushed, judged, or scared. She talked to Romeo like he was a person and not just some animal. She was gracious, loving, caring and thoughtful. If you have any doubts, look no further, because Dr.Dover is the one. It takes a special kind of soul to do the work she does and I know because I work in hospice care and you can tell her soul is beautiful! She was so compassionate and definitely made me feel like I was doing the right thing. she validated me and made any guilt I felt, go away. My husband felt the same and we would and will definitely use her again. Thank you Dr.Dover for all that you do, you have a heart of gold and have touched our lives with your grace. We will never forget the beautiful goodbye you gave to me and my baby boy.

Dr. Dover was kind, gentle and aware of how difficult this process was for us. We will 100% call her as needed in the future. Thanks for affording our family and Lucy such a special experience at home after making the impossible decision to put her to rest.

Review by Dr. Andrea Dover

Concerns: The process felt rushed to me. Dr. Dover gave my dog TWICE the amount of sedative and pain med for her weight. My dog weighed 12 lbs. and she said gave Chili twice the amount for her weight - enough for a 25 lb. dog. Why? To hurry things along so she could go to her next appointment? Also, Dr. Dover was wearing heavy cologne. Many people are sensitive and/or allergic to fragrances. Disappointing that she’d wear so much fragrance. It lingered in the house long after she was gone.

Review by Dr. Andrea Dover

Dr.Dover came to our house to help our little dog Toby, pass peacefully. Dr. Dover is a wonderful mix of kindness, compassion and professionalism. She walked us through the process and once we got started, the process was as peaceful as a heart shattering procedure can be. She was always very considerate of Toby's comfort even in passing. She took a goodly amount of time in between processes to insure gentle transition. At the very end, Dr. Dover gave us time alone with Toby before she took him. She carefully and lovingly placed him in the sweetest basket and tucked him in, ready for his last ride. She took him to the crematorium for us. Dr. Dover was everything compassionate and kindness to the very end. We highly recommend at home services and Codapet. We could set the surroundings the way we wanted. So much better than a clinical experience. Thank you Dr. Dover. 💔

Last month, Dr. Dover helped us say goodbye to our beloved Satya, who has been with us for the last 21+ years. She lived a long and beautiful life, enriching our lives in every imaginable way, and she is deeply missed every moment of every day. We were truly grateful to be able to offer her a loving and peaceful passing in the comfort of our arms in her home. Dr. Dover was compassionate, kind, and caring. While my heart goes out to anyone who is in need of this service, I can genuinely say that I would recommend Dr. Dover without hesitation. I am so grateful for this gift of being able to ease our sweet Satya's suffering in a way that honored who she was and remains in our hearts.

When it came time to help our dog Lucy cross over the rainbow bridge we contacted Dr. Andrea Dover. She was very compassionate towards both us and Lucy. She helped us through the procedure in such a calm and reassuring way that we could understand every step. As hard as this moment was for us I can honestly say she made it less painful. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing to make this decision.
