Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I decided that becoming a vet was my calling at a very young age after I became obsessed with horses, cats, and dogs. I determined early on that becoming a vet would be the best way to spend my days with animals. As a veterinarian, I have had the opportunity to euthanize my own animals at home and felt like that was the best gift I could give them. Knowing how much it meant to my own pets helped me to realize the importance of giving pets a peaceful passing at home.

What pet parents are saying

I was so grateful to find Dr. Hart and be able to book an appointment same day. My Cat of 12 beautiful years Meow Meow had been ill and our vet was unable to find out what was causing his illness. I cannot express how grateful I am to have been able to welcome her into our home to lay him to rest rather than taking him to the vet for his final moments. I did not feel judged for crying, she explained everything every step of the way and made sure that Meow Meow was comfortable with her as well before going through with the service. She allowed me to place him in transport myself and even let me walk out to the car to say goodbye before taking him. If you are looking for a peaceful passing with your fur baby I recommend Dr. Hart. I cannot thank her enough for being there for us.

Dr. Hart helped us create a peaceful and loving environment for our Sully. She encouraged lots of love and treats before starting the process and allowed us the time we needed with him during and after his passing. I would recommend Dr. Hart to anyone having to make this difficult decision.

Dr Hart was compassionate and held space on such a difficult day. Her immediate response to me was much appreciated when I reached out late at night for a next morning appointment. Thank you, Dr. Hart!!! We appreciate you!!

We needed to say goodbye to our 13.5 y/o dog, Chloe, at home. She declined very quickly between Christmas & NY & could no longer walk. We were afraid the holiday would cause delays, & didn't want her to suffer. CodaPet made the process much easier by having Vet credentials & appt times posted. Hard as it is to say goodbye, doing so at home was so much better. Dr. Katharyn Hart was extremely professional, patient, & compassionate. Highly recommend this service.

On a very difficult day Dr Hart was so supportive, compassionate and professional. She informed us of the process answered all questions and let us set the timing to ensure our Clohe was as comfortable as possible. That was what was most important to us. She reassured us that we made the right decision at the right time for our Clohe bug.
