Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
A client said to me 'You must hate your job.' I explained that I'm here for you and your Family during one of your greatest times of need. Bringing comfort, peace, and ending suffering is a wonderful service we can offer our four-legged Family members. Households frequently comment they felt a huge relief, like the weight of worry and concern was removed, knowing they did everything possible. They also appreciated saying goodbye in their own home, to grieve in private, and that CodaPet handled all the arrangements. Bringing this comfort, peace, and calm to the community is my ‘why.’

5.0 Mar 24 2025 by Joan K.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.
5.0 Mar 16 2025 by Kourtney H.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!!
5.0 Mar 08 2025 by Sharleen B.John helped make one of the toughest days of my life just a little easier. He has a genuine compassion for the animals and the grieving pet parents. As we were laying my beloved Loki to rest, my two collies laid down next to him. His peacefulness helped to overcome the stress and grief of the moment. I highly recommend Dr. John Crawford.
