Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

As a veterinarian, my passion for animal, and compassion for both pets and their families led me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine since I was little. My desire to provide the utmost comfort and support during difficult times prompted me to specialize in in-home euthanasia services. By offering this compassionate and personalized approach, I want to ensure that pets and their owners receive the care and safety they deserve during their final moments together.

We had to contact Coda Pets to help us say goodbye to Fritz, who had been injured and wasn't able to recover. Dr. Murray worked with such compassion it made it easier to say goodbye, and we are so grateful. His kindness and gentleness with Fritz was exactly what we, and he, needed. I am so grateful.

Our dog went downhill fast and passed away before our appointment. Dr. Murray was very understanding, responsive, compassionate, and flexible during one of the most traumatic things we’ve ever gone through. We cannot thank him enough for simply being there for us as we navigated our dog’s death and the process that comes after.
