Unfortunately we had to use this service twice in a short amount of time. Dr. Katharyn Hart was our first caregiver for our boy, Wrango and Dr. Lori Thomas was our caregiver for our old gal, Shyloh. They both showed an amazing amount of compassion with our pups, were patient with us as we went through the experience and were so thoughtful in answering any questions we had. They both made the experience very peaceful for all involved and though we were/are heartbroken, knowing that our pups were in the hands of these 2 vets, made it a bit better.
Dr Clem was incredibly kind and caring on one of the worst days of my life. She came to help my 13 year old dog cross over the rainbow bridge and gave me so much time and space to grieve during the process. She handled my girl with care and was so gentle. I'm eternally grateful to her.
Dr Sarah Clem was very nice. She took her time and was very compassionate. Our daughters had grown up with our dog for their entire life and we knew it would be hard on them. She was very understanding and let us take our time saying our good byes.
He was amazing. We can’t thank him enough for the kindness and overwhelming support while our sweet Bentlee boy was taking his journey over the rainbow bridge. Thank you so much again Dr. Crawford!!
We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Lori Thomas for her accommodation to arrive 12hours early. She informed me of the full process before hand and gave me grace to gather myself. It was also her patience, kindness, and compassion during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. Saying goodbye to my boy Sammie was heartbreaking, but she made the process as peaceful and gentle as possible. Her empathy, patience, and professionalism provided us with comfort, knowing our beloved furry son was treated with the utmost care and dignity. Thank you for helping us through this time with such care. Thank you the hug before you left and the card days after. The emotional support you gave was above and beyond.
Words are not enough to describe just how kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive Dr. Dennis is. This service was a gift. I was able to keep my dog at home free from anxiety of the vet’s office and free from the impressment of crying at the vets office. My fur baby went peacefully and pain-free. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you so much Dr. Dennis. You’ll never know how much this meant to me.
Dr Loweth was kind enough to come the day we asked her because our dog was suffering. She was so kind and walked us through the steps to provide the best possible experience possible. We are so grateful for this service. We were recommended by our vet as well as another friend in the AG world. We will certainly recommend this company and Dr Loweth to others.
The doctor was very kind and patient. I would not have wanted to do this any other way. It was very peaceful for my old dog and dear friend.
Dr Kristina Pugh was a very compassionate caring person at this difficult time. She was professional while also helping us cope with the loss of Benny. Once again thank you so much for what you did for us and I would recommend her to anyone who is in this difficult time of need.
Dr Whala was so kind and made our difficult day saying goodbye to our loved pet a peaceful one. She was patient and we appreciated her gentle care of our dog.
She was awesome! The compassion and kindness she showed was second to none. We would never hesitate one second to recommend her to anyone.
Dr. Heather was very kind, thoughtful and talked us through every step, we are very thankful to have her to help let Loki cross the bridge peacefully.
Dr.Karen was wonderful. She was compassionate and caring. She told us what to expect and walked us through the entire process. She is a beautiful soul.
Dr. John Crawford was wonderful. He is incredibly kind and compassionate and very professional. Saying good-bye to Cooper with in-home pet euthanasia and Dr. Crawford made a difficult decision much less stressful for Cooper and the rest of our family including our dog who was able to say her good-bye to him.
Our dear hound Frankie woke up Saturday morning unable to walk due to the pain of his hip dysplasia. We knew our 13 yr old friend suffered from the condition, but it finally crippled him. We spent a sleepless night, watching him agonize over not being able to go outside to do his business. Sunday morning I looked for home services for pet euthanasia and found Dr. Mumm. She replied immediately and put me at ease. Frankie had suffered abuse before we adopted him and had a terrible fear of riding in a vehicle so we needed someone to come to us. She arrived and explained the procedure calmly and sympathetically. Our whole family was able to be there to say goodbye. It is one of the hardest choices a pet lover has to make, but Dr, Mumm did everything right, as far as we are concerned. Have already recommended her to friends and family. Thank you!
Dr Dash helped our beloved Ziggy with great care and tenderness at a very difficult time for all of us. We are very fortunate to have crossed paths with her when we did and are very, very grateful.
I was so deeply grateful for the professionalism, compassion and concern shown by our Vet Dr. Noe. My cat's passing was extremely peaceful and she handled everything with such sensitivity. Thank you
Dr. Jackson is one of the kindest most compassionate people I’ve ever met. I’m glad she was with me at the end of the of this difficult journey.
Dr. Treece came to my home to help my bull mastiff Angus cross the bridge. I can not express enough how thankful for her we are. We were told exactly what they would do and what to expect. Treated our pet and ourselves with dignity and respect. No rushing, gave us all the time we needed for our goodbyes. Would definitely recommend her and this service. Thank you Dr. Treece.
These folks made a really challenging experience as easy as humanly possible. The entire process was simple and professional while also being purposeful and kind. I cannot imagine a better experience when saying goodbye to our beloved family pet and friend. Dr Chapman was so kind and peaceful. We say a huge thank you and also highly recommend working with this group if you should find yourself in need of someone to humanely and kindly help you say goodbye to your beloved pet.
What an amazing service to have someone come to the home when it’s time for our pets to be put down. We had a wonderful experience saying goodbye to my 15-year-old cat Diana. Diana hates car rides and cat carriers so when I found out about this personalized service, I was relieved.
We cannot thank Dr. Harper enough for the kindness, compassion, and comfort she provided during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. God truly sent us an angel in her. Saying goodbye to our beloved Aspen was heartbreaking, but Dr. Harper made the experience as peaceful and gentle as possible. Her explanation of every step was clear and reassuring, helping us understand what to expect while allowing us the space to process our emotions. The care and tenderness she showed toward Aspen—and toward us—was beyond what we could have hoped for. She treated Aspen with such dignity and love, making sure her final moments were filled with peace and comfort. We are forever grateful for Dr. Harper’s empathy and professionalism. In such a painful time, she was a source of warmth and guidance, and we truly cannot recommend her enough to anyone facing this incredibly difficult decision.
Dr. Alexander was incredibly compassionate and she made the process very easy during a difficult time for our family. She provided an at-home euthanasia for our 16 year old dog. She was kind, patient and sincere. We are grateful for her help and allowing us to be in the comfort of our home. Highly recommend Dr. Alexander for anyone facing a similar situation.
She was as sweet and comforting with our Indy as he was with all whom he met when he was still here. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. ❤️
Dr. Gibson was professional and compassionate. This is the 3rd time I’ve needed to use euthanasia services for one of my cats with the first 2 being at a vet’s office. Our experience with Dr Gibson was by far the most peaceful. I’m so thankful we were able to say goodbye at home where our sweet Isabel was comfortable in her favorite spot. I was also thankful that Dr. Gibson was available within a day’s notice on a weekend. My heart goes out to anyone faced with this decision but I am at peace knowing I gave her the most loving and peaceful goodbye.
This is a very difficult life event but having Dr Delia assist with the process of letting our little lovely girl leave her life, in a peaceful and loving way, was not only the right thing to do for our little girl but it was also the best way for us to say goodbye. I am so glad that Dr. Delia was available. Dr Delia is a very caring, calming, and understanding soul which is very helpful. If you can, you should try to make plans to let your beloved pets go peacefully. It is best for them, and for you, and Coda and Dr Delia make it easy to plan for this very difficult day.
Dr McCasland was so amazing with Drumline. It was such a hard time for us having to say goodbye (for now). She wasn't rushed at all and spoke so sweetly. Her compassion and personal attention to us and him was unsurpassed. I will forever be grateful for her.
Dr. Whala is so supportively calm, companionate, and took her time which allowed me to breathe through this grief induced process!! I am speechless with gratitude!!! Thank you for what you do, it truly takes an amazing person that takes the time to do what you do and how you helped my fur baby with a loving peaceful crossing!?! I will now always do this type of in home help when any of my animals are in need again! Dr. Whala, you are a peace providing angel!! Thank you!!! Thank you!! Thank you!!
Dr. Kelly Neri provided excellent service for our pet cat Lily. She was compassionate, knowledgeable, and professional. Dr. Neri provided a relaxed atmosphere that comforted our family during this time of transistion and loss of Lily. We are grateful and pleased that we chose Dr. Neri.
Dr. Stukey made an incredibly hard day so much easier. She spent some time petting and loving on our furbaby and made sure we were completely ready for the process to begin. We got to hold our pup as he peacefully drifted into sedation then crossed over the rainbow bridge. The way she snuggled him up in a sweet basket to take him to his final resting was so loving. We are so glad we chose CodaPet and Dr. Stukey.
Dr. Vernon could not have been any kinder or more understanding at such a difficult time. My cat had issues with the whole world and Dr. Vernon was able to meet our needs for decreased interaction. My cat passed peacefully in my arms in her own spot in our home. She met Tabitha’s needs.
Dr. Martin helped ease our sweet baby into a peaceful goodnight. He treated us with kindness and compassion. This decision is never a good one, but I’d recommend Dr Martin to anyone facing the worst choice imaginable. We thank you for taking care of our family, Dr Martin.
Dr. Stadler was absolutely amazing in helping us through this process. She reached out a few days in advance, offering helpful suggestions to manage our dog’s pain while we wait for our date. When she arrived at our house, she was incredibly compassionate, listened to our stories, and never once judged us. I felt horrible about everything because our baby was having a good day and was acting normal, but Dr. Stadler explained that this was likely due to the adrenaline from new people. She made me feel at ease with our decision. She explained every step of the process and gave us time to adjust. It was clear she truly cared about our dog’s comfort and well-being. I’m so grateful that we were able to give our baby the peaceful goodbye she deserved, in the comfort of our home and surrounded by loved ones as she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. 💕🐾
Except for the initial shot that caused my boy some pain, the experience was the best I could have hoped for. Dr. Greta was kind, compassionate and empathetic. My baby had a peaceful passing laying in his bed, head on my lap getting stroked and kissed. This was my first experience with home euthanasia and I would now never do it any other way. Big thanks to Dr. Geta! ❤️
Making this decision is one of the hardest decisions, for me, to make - but having the ability to have my Jasper pass at home, in my arms, while in no way easy, but so much more comforting for me and I believe Jasper - there was no stress of going to the vet, waiting in the waiting room, waiting for the doctor. Dr Cory was wonderful, listened to my concerns and extremely compassionate - thank you very much for being there for me and Jasper.
Dr. Karen was very compassionate and understanding in such a difficult time. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I was very fortunate to have Dr. Karen help me at this time.
Dr. Clem was very kind, professional, and patient .. she helped lead us though the pain of letting RosAna Isabela go, so that we had a chance to tell her good bye and how much we had always loved her .. I highly recommend Dr. Clem for her services and kindnesses .. she even delivered Bella's ashes back to us in a beautiful wooden urn ..
Just put my baby down. Lori was so fabulous. Not saying it was a pleasure to put my baby down but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was so peaceful to have it done at home. I held my baby through the whole thing and will never ever use a vet office to put any of my babies to sleep. Lori guided us through each step and even when she was taking Mia to the cremation place she put her on a wonderful blanket and stretcher. Dr. Lori Thomas is an angel, my baby loved her and was so at ease with her! Thank you guys. It was worth every penny!
Dr. Kellie was absolutely amazing and so emphathetic. I would highly recommend Dr. Kellie to anyone who wants a peaceful surrounding for their animal.
Dr. Loweth came to us on one of the hardest day for our family. She explained everything to us on the whole process with great detail for the in home euthanasia. Dr. Jessica took care of our little baby girl "Phoebe" with kindness and gentleness. We wanted to say Thank you for the help putting our very loved fur baby to rest.
Dr. Sara was very kind and compassionate with helping us do what was best for Arizona after 14 wonderful years. Having her come to our home to euthanize Arizona was a great relief for our dog and us. I can't say enough about Dr. Sara and would recommend her should the need arise.
Dr Karen Whala has been wonderful with our pets. We were fortunate that we found her. Her compassion and understanding when it is time to say good by was comforting to us. Thank you Dr Whala for your patience and understanding. The Lee Family
Dr. Lori Schmalz Was the best. Beyond caring and helped my wife and I through the transition. Hardest Dravidian I ever made in my life but she was there the whole way through to help.
Dr. Lowman was so kind and informative about the process of saying goodbye to our sweet Hendrix. She took time to explain all the details and gave us all the time we needed at each step of the way. I felt it was the best final gift to our sweet boy to be able to say goodbye to him in the privacy and loving environment of our own home. Thank you, Dr. Lowman for your sensitivity and kindness!
Dr. John Murray made the worst day better for us and our beloved Cookie. It’s the hardest part of loving. He’s very compassionate.
Dr. Chapman was amazingly kind and compassionate. She made our at home euthanasia appointment a little more bearable. There was no rush. She gave us all the time we needed with our girl, and when we were as ready as we were ever going to be, she was so gentle and kind. All our deepest thanks to Dr. Chapman for helping us give our girl the peace and rest she deserved.
Hard to rate a service like this bc we had to put down our kitty. The process is great. Dr gersten’s compassion and patience was amazing. It was hard to do but the most humane way to do it.
Thank You, Dr. Gary Saying goodbye to my 15-year-old dog, Kona, was incredibly hard, but I’m so grateful Dr. Gary was there for us. He handled everything with compassion, patience, and true care—for Kona and for my family. He made sure the process was peaceful and gave us the time and space we needed. Dr. Gary’s empathy made a painful moment a little more bearable. I’ll always appreciate the respect and kindness he showed during Kona’s final moments. If you’re looking for a vet who truly cares, we can’t recommend him enough.
Making the difficult decision to help a pet pass is not an easy one, but I am ultimately grateful I was able to coordinate at home pet euthanasia for my beloved kitty. I have no doubt in my mind that allowing for my cat, Owen, to pass in his favorite place, where he was most comfortable, was the right choice given these heartbreaking circumstances. Dr. Murray was incredibly patient, kind, knowledgeable, compassionate, and communicative. I could have not asked anything more of Dr. Murray, he was so caring during a devastating time. I am grateful for this option and the excellent care we received through CodaPet.
I'd be pretty hard-pressed to say what hasn't already been said about Dr. Josh Williams' compassionate and professional care. I do, though, want to echo those words with the greatest amount of respect and appreciation. Every bit of it is true. In the early afternoon light of a sun-filled day, my sweet boy Max was put to rest in our backyard. One of his favorite places to be. There was so much grace in those moments. No drama, no struggle . . . just peace. Forever grateful ~
Dr. Houck made this whole process so mich easier. I couldn't ask for a more peaceful and calm passing. Thank you so much for all you do to make this process so much more peaceful.
Dr. Neri was so kind, compassionate, and respectful to our family during such a difficult time. It’s a heartbreaking decision to make but when you have a vet like Dr. Neri helping you, it certainly brought us some peace and comfort. We could not have asked for a more calm and loving farewell to our beloved kitty.
Dr McCasland was amazing, compassionate and caring. She took the time to make sure we were fully aware of the process, listened to stories and made Drumline feel comfortable with her. Forever grateful for her and the service she provides.
Dr Danelle was efficient & compassionate. Im glad we chose to use her service & do this at home. It seemed a little less stressful for all of us including Kingston.
After the rapid decline of our beloved dog Bailey - we felt it was time to say our goodbye. I found Codapet and Dr. Heather, the process was easy and all online. Dr. Heather showed up on time and make sure we were comfortable with every step in the process, she was kind and compassionate. It made what was an unbearable situation better than I had imagined. Saying goodbye to a pet is never easy but this service made it much easier. Thank you for the opportunity to share my feelings. RIP Bailey Gene
Dr. Lauren Frary made an incredibly difficult situation peaceful and comfortable. She was kind and caring and reassured us that we were making the decision that was best for our sweet Maggie.
After 12 wonderful years, our family was devastated to learn our furry loved one was leaving us due to kidney disease that was progressing rapidly. I'm a matter of 6 weeks, he went from a very vocal, 9lb, playful, active, loving 12 year old cat to an unrecognizable, 5lb, lethargic, weak, silent, disoriented, sad little guy that was clearly in a lot of pain. He had started having back-to-back seizures, it broke our hearts to have to witness the scared confusion he was going through and watch him wither away. It was a call I never thought I'd have to make and would never wish on anyone. Kristi Thompson was so amazing, kind, considerate and so gentle with our sweet baby, Stash. She had even sat down with my daughter to help clean Stash up and because we didn't have the money for the extra stuff like paw prints and clay print but my daughter had the supplies, Mrs Thompson assisted my daughter in making some of her own. The Compassion this young woman showed us was beyond our expectations and we are so grateful. Highly recommend
I recently had to make the heartbreaking decision of letting my Lexi go over the Rainbow Bridge. We rescued her at 9 months and she turned 14 on March 1st. We were so lucky to have had her in our lives and I know she changed many minds about Pitbull’s over the years, as she was the sweetest, gentle and loving girl. I want to thank Dr. Karen Duncan - Certified Peaceful Euthanasia Veterinarian from CodaPet who helped me through this difficult journey. Dr. Karen came to my home and showed the utmost care and compassion during this time, it felt like having a family member with me. We sat together on the floor while Lexi laid on her favorite bed, enjoying all the love and attention we both gave to her while she passed. I cannot say enough about how grateful I am for the kindness Dr. Karen showed, not only that day but the days since, by cards, email and messages.
Dr.Alexander was very professional and compassionate as we laid to rest our fur baby of 18 years. I hope never to have to do this for another pet, but if I do, I would call Dr. Alexander again.
On March 15th I had to say goodbye to my Manz after 15.5 years of love and being by my side. Dr Lara came highly recommended and I understand why. Her professionalism, kindness, compassion and empathy shown through in a difficult time. Everyone at Coda Pet was amazing. My Mokie is home now, thank you Dr Laura
My family and I felt comfortable and supported as we said goodbye to our family member Leia. Dr. Hart really was perfect in helping us say goodbye. I am thankful she was the vet that we chose.
I will be forever thankful for Dr Cara and her in home euthanasia service. We just recently found out our sweet boy Luke had a mass on his heart. He was terribly ill and weak and pursuing any type of treatment would be too traumatizing for him. We felt helping him go peacefully was giving him back all the love he gave to us. Dr Cara coming to our home made it possible for us. She is very caring and compassionate. There was no rushing and Dr Cara did everything she could to keep Luke from feeling stressed. What a gift to be able to send Luke off knowing he felt safe, comfortable and loved.
Dr. Clem was very professional and at the time very empathetic: She took the time to explain my questions. And I thought it was very kind and caring that she asked me questions about how Ginny and I became best friends. I appreciate Dr. Clem‘s calming nature. And I also appreciate the fact that she didn’t rush things. In conclusion, I would rate Dr. Clem with an A+++
It has taken me a few weeks to get my thoughts together enough to even discuss this. Pip was my best friend just a few months shy of 20 years. It was very important to me that his last days and moments were as comfortable as possible. Dr. Rexing was the absolute best I could have asked for. Seeing how calm and relaxed he was during the procedure meant everything to me. It was the first time I'd heard him purr in over a month. And I was able to hold him the entire time. It was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make, but I don't regret anything at all. I know I did what was best for my buddy and I'm incredibly grateful Dr. Rexing was able to be there for the both of us. Thank you so much.
Dr. Lori Thomas showed a great amount of compassion toward our old gal, Shyloh. And even though it was a heartbreaker, there was a peacefulness to the journey, we so appreciated. Dr. Thomas was so understanding of our ache and proceeded with a tenderness that made it all a bit better. Thank you Dr. Thomas.
Dr. Jackson is an incredibly compassionate human being and I'm so very grateful for him and everyone at CodaPet. Not only did he drive quite literally hours away to help us when no one else nearby had time to do so, he could not have been more kind. When he arrived for my sweet elderly kitty's euthanasia appointment, he saw me kneeling by the couch holding my baby, and immediately met me where I was and knelt down with me. He did a thorough exam and let me know he agreed that this was the right choice for my boy. He was sympathetic as I cried my heart out, and didn't rush me to move forward even though it was late in the evening. He made it possible for me to give my sweetheart the most peaceful passing in a place he loved, surrounded by people who loved him. Afterward, I even got the sweetest handwritten sympathy card. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Jackson and this group of folks. Thank you so very much, from the bottom of my heart.
I cannot express how grateful I am for the exceptional care and compassion Dr. Todd showed when she came to our home to help our beloved dog. She was not only a skilled veterinarian, but also an empathetic person. She treated our furry baby with the utmost gentleness, ensuring he was comfortable in his final moments. She took time to explain everything, answered our questions and did not rush us through our saying goodbyes. Her professionalism, warmth, and understanding made an incredibly painful experience more bearable. Thank you, Dr. Todd for being there for us when we needed it the most. Lastly, thank you for the beautiful keepsakes that we will cherish forever! You are truly amazing!
Dr. Rebecca Houck is amazing. She is calm and compassionate and helped us say goodbye to our 16 year old baby girl at home. I am so grateful I did not have to take her to the vet, as she would become very anxious on trips to the vet. This is an incredible service. Thank you Dr. Houck.
Losing our beloved Bully was one of the hardest moments for our family, but Dr. Karen Whala helped us through it with compassion, grace, and genuine care. From the moment she arrived, she created a peaceful and comforting environment that honored Bully’s life and eased his passing. Dr. Whala was incredibly supportive—not just to Bully, but to every member of our family. Her presence brought comfort during a heartbreaking time, and we are so grateful for her gentleness and professionalism. The resources shared by the CodaPet team were thoughtful and meaningful, especially the grief support and memorial ideas. It truly felt like we weren’t alone. Thank you, Dr. Whala and the entire CodaPet Care Team, for helping us say goodbye with dignity and love. We will never forget it. — Villarreal Family
We are so grateful for Dr. Anna Peterson and the compassionate care she provided during one of the hardest moments for our family. She came to our home last week to help our beloved Maude pass peacefully, and we could not have asked for a more caring, gentle, and professional presence. Dr. Peterson took everything at our pace—there was never any rush, only calm and reassurance. She explained every step of the process clearly and compassionately, making sure we understood and were comfortable throughout. She treated Maude with such tenderness and respect, and her kindness extended equally to our family, offering both medical clarity and emotional support. She was personable, warm, and genuine—a true gift in a moment of grief. Dr. Peterson helped create a peaceful and loving space for Maude’s transition, and we will always be thankful for her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing this difficult decision. Her presence was a comfort beyond words
Losing our much loved dog was so difficult. Dr. Dixon was so kind and loving to us and to Buddy. She has a very calming presence and we appreciated it very much. Losing a pet is so painful and there’s nothing that can really make it easier. Her kindness and compassion was comforting.
I wasn't aware of this at home service and I wish my primary Vet had suggested it as an option. Thank God a friend suggested this. My dog was able to pass in his own home environment with a ton of love around him. JoAnne was professional and caring and walked us through step by step. This is the only route we will take from now on. I highly recommend this option.
Dr. Lara was amazing with us and guiding us through the process. She treated us and our Duke with such respect. She was gentle and kind and gave us the time needed to say goodbye. Thank you Dr. Lara.
Dr. Diane was awesome in helping our sweet girl Molly Brown. She was kind and compassionate to both Molly and her brother Tommy as we all went through the process together. It was truly a blessing to have her leave while still in her bed at home. Forever grateful…
Lori was very compassionate and patient with me throughout the process. She assured me that I was doing the right thing for my sweet Dehlia. She shared her vet experience with me and allowed me to spend time with her after. I highly recommend Dr. Lori and coda pet
Dr. Struble was very caring and answered all the questions we had.She was very gentle and also made me feel better about the decision to put Bella down.She was more than happy to let us spend as much time as we wanted with Bella before the end.
