Dr. Lori Thomas gave Cassie a peaceful and dignified passing at home, surrounded by the people, music, flowers, and familiar comforts she loved. Her calm presence and compassionate care helped guide not only Cassie, but our entire family, through one of the hardest moments we’ve faced. We were able to let Cassie rest in her own backyard, with her pack nearby, and say goodbye in a way filled with love, respect, and peace. We will always be grateful for the kindness and grace Dr. Thomas brought to Cassie’s final journey.
5.0May 18 2026 by Brook H. We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden.
Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.
5.0Sep 15 2025 by Magda Khordoc It's the service you never want but when it comes I was so thankful for Dr. Todd. She was so compassionate and patient with us. Our sweet cat was able to cross the rainbow bridge in the comfort of his home without the stress of being moved to a vets office in his final hours. She even brought his ashes back to us. I can't thank her enough for this. We also had to move his appointment up and she was quick to move to his needs. I hope I don't need their services for a long time for my other fur babies but I will use her again in the very, very distant future.
5.0Sep 27 2025 by Tamarri Wieder Dr Lisa was amazing. This was one of the hardest things we have ever had to do, but she made saying goodbye to our girl so much easier and with no stress to Abby.
5.0May 18 2026 by Michelle L. Dr. Thomason was so supportive and helpful during such an incredibly hard time. I can't say enough about what an amazing vet she is. RIP Lovely Lolita
5.0Sep 14 2025 by Karina Elias This doctor immediately came to action for this sudden & difficult but necessary decision, showing such a professional and empathetic attitude throughout the whole process, she made sure Baby was comfortable for her final moments and gave us the best quality assurance and putting to sleep process.
I'm forever grateful and glad she came to us and ensured our pet was laid to rest.
Dr. Pilago showed so much care and compassion when we had to make the painful decision to put our handsome pup Rodney to sleep. I highly recommend her.
5.0Sep 14 2025 by Suzi Brown I wanted to take a moment to thank a very special doctor, Dr. Karen Duncan of CodaPet, along with the incredible team at Eastern Shore Cremation and Funeral Service.
Laying Thor to rest has been one of the hardest things we have ever had to do. Dr. Karen Duncan is an amazing soul who truly found her calling. She arrived, took the time to get to know Thor, and after giving us the time we needed, gently and confidently reassured us that letting him go with dignity was the most selfless thing we could do.
She made us feel like we had known her for years. She explained everything, supported us through every step, and gave us the time and space to process such a heartbreaking moment.
The compassion and care did not stop there. The follow-up and support from Eastern Shore Cremation and Funeral Service was beyond anything we could have imagined. The kindness, humanity, and understanding shown to our family is something so many businesses have lost over time.
Thank you all for the compassion, dignity, humility, and care you showed us during one of the hardest moments of our lives. These are gifts and skills that simply cannot be taught.
5.0May 18 2026 by Joseph M. Dr. Norman was wonderful in helping our pet pass away peacefully at home. She was professional, compassionate and genuinely kind. We would highly recommend Dr. Norman and CodaPet for those looking for in home euthanasia services.
5.0Sep 16 2025 by Doug Taylor Truly an angel of a person. Im so glad I chose nathalie and codapet. She allowed my cat to pass at home with me besides her iher bed peacefully. I couldn't say enough good things about her.
5.0May 15 2026 by Kristen S. Dr. Katie Todd was so kind and informative. She explained the process and answered all of our questions. Our sweet girl is at peace and out of pain and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for her.
5.0Oct 22 2025 by Whitney Lloyd-Bays Dr. Noe was sweet, loving and gentle to my precious fur baby. She talked to my CocoLee (aka Beanie Baby) as if she was her own not just another buck.
In my heart I know my Beanie Baby was not scared or under any stress during the process.
Thank you Dr. Noe and Bill for being gentle and professional.
5.0May 17 2026 by Mariela C. She gave careful attention to who we were and what would matter to us. She could not possibly have done a better job in any way whatsoever. Our dog Sarah was taken great care of from start to finish. I will tell anybody I talk to about my loss how great she was to all of us. Me, my husband and my other dog Nikki were all close to Sarah to help comfort her. And Sarah was taken care of right where she was in her comfort zone with her favorite view.
5.0May 15 2026 by Tammy O. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Sarah Clem for helping our beloved Chloe Bear pass peacefully at home. Dr. Clem was compassionate, gentle, and respectful through one of the hardest moments for our family. She gave Chloe comfort, dignity, and love in her final moments, and helped us feel supported every step of the way.
Saying goodbye is never easy, but the kindness and professionalism shown to Chloe Bear and our family made all the difference. We will always be thankful for the care and peace you provided. Thank you, Dr. Sarah Clem. ❤️
5.0May 18 2026 by Patti H. Mac was my first pet- my kitty cat of 18 years. I consider myself very fortunate to have had him as a buddy for so long. So when he showed signs of his time being up, I knew from a friend -in home pet euthanasia- was a peaceful goodbye. Dr. John Murray was beyond thoughtful and professional with amazing bedside manner. Mac had a wonderful last day at home and I held him in my arms as we said goodbye. It was beyond hard, but I also wouldn’t have it any other way looking back. Mac hated his car carrier, the car, a vet office is so cold. We were in our beautiful, sunny room, comfortable and well, I’d want to go the same way! Thank you again for being so wonderful to our sweet baby.
5.0Sep 16 2025 by Kate Kapolnek I can't say enough fabulous things about Dr. Jessica Pruitt! It was a hard decision (as it always will be) when its time for our "buddies" to have to leave us:( but Dr. Jessica is so gentle and kind. She explains everything, is very patient and my Molly just warmed right up to her which made things even easier. I can't express the gratitude to Dr. Jessica enough as she made this as peaceful as can be for all of us:) Thank you Dr. Jessica!
5.0Sep 15 2025 by Michelle R When Dr Martin arrived, my little guy Barney ran to the door to greet him like he did all guests. He even barked at him, before jumping up to him to get attention. Dr Martin greeted him back, warmly and sincerely. He was playful with Barney while explaining the process to us. Lane made a horrible no win situation more acceptable with his calm demeanor and soothing words. I can't thank Dr Martin enough for helping little Barney come to peaceful end to his life's journey.
5.0Sep 15 2025 by Mel Curtis Dr. Katie Todd was so unbelievably kind & compassionate. She made an absolutely awful experience as peaceful & supportive as was possible. We are so grateful for her service.
This process was as easy as it could have been, all things considered. Dr. Lauren was so kind and sympathetic to our situation, and explained everything clearly so we knew what was happening next. I can't imagine having to do this with families every day, but what you all do is truly a blessing. Oliver was our first pet we had to say goodbye to, but being able to do so at home was a great relief for all of us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, we couldn't imagine doing this process any other way.
5.0May 15 2026 by Lindsay C. We are so grateful that Dr. Courtney White was available to us, last minute nonetheless. We were able to say goodbye to our precious boy Radar in his favorite spot in our backyard. Dr. White was so kind and compassionate, explaining the process as it progressed, allowing us to make the decisions we could. She truly understood the bond we had with our boy. We will cherish the memory of him forever ❤️
5.0Sep 21 2025 by Kim Needham The form for the service was very easy to complete. I appreciated this since making this decision was very difficult and I was fraught with emotion. I wanted my beloved cat Buddy to have a pain free transition at our home. He was 18 years. His decline was rapid; he became extremely ill in the span of a week with advanced kidney disease. Dr. Lutri was so gentle and loving to Buddy. She explained every step of the process and asked me before each step if I was ready to move to the next. Dr. Lutri was gracious, kind, and compassionate. She has the most peaceful, calm, loving presence and a profound caring for the pets she serves and their pet guardians. She comforted me greatly as she took care of my magnificent boy. She genuinely understood the magical connection I had with Buddy and treated him so tenderly when she put his sweet body into a beautiful bed to transport him the the crematorium. I felt like Dr. Lutri was an angel sent to me in my dire time of need and loss. She was exceptional in every way. She is a talented doctor overflowing with empathy and understanding who is beautiful inside and out.
5.0Sep 15 2025 by Delia Molloy Making the decision to euthanize our beloved cat Minnie was a difficult but it was made bearable due to Dr. Laura. She walked us through the process with patience and kindness which allayed our fears. My husband and I knew that Minnie was in good hands with Dr. Laura and we are truly grateful. We have already recommended Coda pet and Dr. Laura.
5.0May 17 2026 by Moira S. Faced the difficult decision to euthanize our beloved 18 year old Papillon and used Codapet to do it in our home as our dog hated to go to the vet. Dr. Katie Todd arrived and explained in detail the process, gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes, and made the process as easy as possible. She was very reassuring to my children that we had made the right decision and explained all the options for taking care of the remains and provided us with keepsakes to ease the family’s pain. Thank you so much Dr.Todd in doing what has to be one of the world’s toughest jobs!
5.0Sep 29 2025 by Robert Watson This was definitely the way to give your baby wings. My dog was very afraid of the vet office, and i did not want him to be on his last day on earth. Dr Anna was on time, very loving, caring and made us all feel at ease with going forward. She even brought a treat for him, and my very usually picky dog ate it! She was amazing, and I would definitely call on her again. Thank you, Dr Anna. The Hallfrisch's.
5.0Sep 15 2025 by tina hallfrisch It’s been about two weeks now since we helped my guy Benny over the Rainbow Bridge. At 15 years and numerous health / mobility challenges, it was his time. When it was “their time”, we always took our furry children to the vet’s office for the “final visit”. Each office did their best to make it as easy as possible for all concerned, but it still felt a little “cold”, clinical and a little frighting. I was fortunate to have found CodaPet.com at the urging of our own vet’s office. We made the decision to help Benny at around 3:30pm on a Saturday. We received immediate response after scheduling online and Dr. Cassandra Lewis arrived at our house promptly at 7pm. After assessing Benny, she provided him with carefully administered sedatives to ease his suffering while surrounded by his family in the comfort of his favorite room on his favorite bedding. For the next 40 minutes or so, Dr. Lewis listen to us tell Benny’s life story. She was truly sent by the Angels. Allowing us to unburden ourselves to her compassionate ear allowed our healing to begin. She explained each step in the procedure and allowed for our questions as well as our periodic expressions of tearful grief. When we said our final “goodbyes”, she lovingly took Benny’s suffering away as we assured him the he was indeed “a good boy”. We chose the option for water cremation and carefully prepared him for transport in her vehicle. The entire process was professional, compassionate and even a little spiritual. We are forever grateful to Dr. Lewis (and CodaPet) helping us through this difficult time and giving Benny comfort and peace as he traveled the Bridge.
5.0May 18 2026 by Dave B. Putting my beloved Avery down was the hardest day of my life. While there is no easy way to do that, Dr. Noe made the
experience so much better. From the moment she came to my house, her calm presence put everyone at ease, including my dog. She was professional, yet spoke as if she had known Avery for years. She gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye to our baby without feeling rushed. After Avery passed, Dr. Noe gave a heartfelt speech and hugged us all. I couldn't imagine having to euthanize in any other way.
5.0Sep 16 2025 by Jessica Rios Dr. Whala was so wonderful. She really cared about us and our kitty, Atticus. She took her time and walked us through the process. There were lots of tears but I was special because we were at home and comfortable surroundings for our friend. Thanks again !
5.0May 14 2026 by Martee B. Dr. Katie was amazing! She handled everything so professionally yet personally too. Ruger will be so missed by many (as she can attest to, she said it was the biggest crowd she'd had, there were 9 of us) and I will never take my pets to a cold impersonal clinic to pass if I can help it. Having your pet pass at home where they're comfortable and familiar was such a blessing!
5.0Oct 12 2025 by Tina Devore Dr. Bean and Brooke were so compassionate, caring and understanding during what was such an awfully hard experience for myself and my husband. Though it was hard for us, they really did give our baby the best and most peaceful goodbye that we could have asked for. I'm so grateful to them for making things as comfortable as possible for my old girl, myself and my husband.
5.0May 16 2026 by Katie G. I can’t say enough about Dr. Christine. He was so kind and compassionate during an awful time for us as we said goodbye to our beloved pup.
5.0May 15 2026 by Judy K. Dr. Yang is wildly empathetic and kind. I could not have asked for a better person to help my dog cross the rainbow bridge. She was professional and allowed me to mourn in the moment and explained everything she was doing before she did it to ease my mind. I highly recommend her and can’t thank her enough for helping out in such a hard moment.
5.0May 15 2026 by Sara C. Saying goodbye to our pup Hugo after 15 years was one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to do, but Dr. Crawford made all the difference.
We didn’t know what to expect, but he guided us through the entire process with such kindness, patience, and compassion that he made us all feel at ease during an incredibly emotional time.
He treated Hugo with so much gentleness and dignity, and allowed us the comfort of saying goodbye peacefully at home surrounded by family. He explained everything clearly, never rushed us, and gave us the time and support we needed every step of the way.
We are forever grateful for the care he showed not only to our beloved dog, but to our whole family. Thank you for helping give our sweet pup such a peaceful and loving goodbye.
Dr. Lisa made herself available for a last-minute urgent call for us and she couldn’t have been more lovely and caring. This is obviously a challenging and sad time for anyone in the position to call. She treated it with reverence and kindness. Feel lucky to have had her.
5.0Sep 16 2025 by Gillian Shure This was the first time we ever tried an in home service and we were so anxious. We wanted our girl to feel safe and comfortable in her home, surrounded by her family. We did not know what to expect, and Dr. Sarah Clem exceeded any expectations we could have had. Dr Sarah was kind and took time to get to know us and listened while we shared stories about our girl, Emma. She was patient with us and gave us time to say goodbye at our own speed. She never rushed us. She explained the process and welcomed any questions we had. She provided comfort to us and she gave that same comfort and care to Emma. We will always be appreciative of Dr. Sarah and the love and care she gave our sweet girl.
5.0May 16 2026 by Stephanie B. Dr. Andrea Dover was an angel during one of our hardest times.
She was genuinely so compassionate, empathetic and sensitive to all our needs and I can’t thank her enough for the amazing and difficult job she did. She was so good at explaining the process and taking the time to make sure we were ready for each step along the way.
Our sweet lab Cooper was in the best hands with Dr. Dover as he slipped into a calm sleep and then across the rainbow bridge with us holding him the entire time.
If you are in the unfortunate circumstance that you require end of life care for your beloved fur baby, I cannot recommend CodaPet and Dr. Dover enough!
At home is the best way imho and I wouldn’t do it any other way if at all possible.
Jon & Heather S.
5.0May 16 2026 by Jonathan S. Dr Lane was truly amazing. He helped us though one of the toughest things imaginable.
I would highly recommend him and this whole process over going in to a clinic or worse yet, letting your loved pet suffer.
From beginning to end it was peaceful and gentle. Our "Charlie" went without the slightest discomfort.
Thank you.
5.0May 15 2026 by Douglas G. This is the 2nd time we have used Dr. Danielle Jackson. She is kind, compassionate and we would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you again Dr. Jackson!
5.0Sep 14 2025 by Justine M Groves We cannot say enough about the compassion and care we received from Dr. Phillips during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. From the time she entered our home, she was truly heaven-sent. She thoroughly explained every step of the process, which brought us so much comfort and peace.
She was incredibly gentle with our sweet boy, Skipper, who was always so anxious, and treated him with the utmost care and respect. She gave my husband and me all the time we needed to say our goodbyes in the comfort of our home, never rushing us for a moment.
From beginning to end, her presence was calm, kind, and truly angelic. We will never be able to fully express how grateful we are for such an intimate and peaceful experience. It meant everything to us.
5.0May 16 2026 by Jenny G. Dr. Gordon performed the euthanasia for my sweet soul dog of 16 years. It was the most peaceful experience I could’ve asked for. She knew exactly what to say and created such a calm environment to spend our final moments together. I’m very grateful for her service.
