Dr. Lutri is very kind, understanding and a very knowledgeable vet… I really appreciated her kindness at this very difficult time for me and my pet.
5.0May 15 2026 by Laura C. We will always be grateful to Dr. Daniela Lutri for the kindness and compassion she showed us when we had to say goodbye to our dog, Daisy. It was one of the hardest moments of our lives, and she handled it with so much care and gentleness.
She spoke to us like real people, took her time, and treated Daisy with so much love and respect. Nothing felt rushed or clinical—just calm, patient, and incredibly thoughtful. In a moment when our hearts were breaking, her presence truly mattered.
Losing Daisy was devastating, but knowing she passed peacefully and with dignity brings us comfort. We are deeply thankful. 🐾💔
5.0Feb 08 2026 by Katherine H. We are very grateful for the love and support from Dr. Lutri when she came to visit us for our beloved Kona. She was amazing, very sentimental and caring about our loss and made this day alittle more bearable by her kindness and calmness about the entire situation. Thank you for being there for our family! We appreciate it!
5.0Jan 25 2026 by Lorraine D. When it was time to cross our beloved fur baby over, we used CodaPet. We have used another at-home pet euthanasia company, but our last experience with them was very unpleasant.
Dr. Daniela Lutri came to our home and assisted our fur baby to cross over. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Lutri for the extraordinary compassion and care she provided during a difficult moment in our lives. Saying goodbye to our beloved fur baby was heartbreaking, but Dr. Lutri’s presence brought a sense of peace and dignity to the experience that we will never forget.
From the moment she arrived, Dr. Lutri was kind, gentle, and incredibly patient. She took the time to ask us about our fur baby, and our fur baby’s health issues. As she became acquainted with our fur baby, she pointed out some other health issues that were obvious to her. Hearing Dr. Lutri share them with us validated that we were making the right decision.
Dr. Lutri explained everything to us with tenderness and respect, allowing us to move at our own pace. Her calm and compassionate demeanor created a safe space for our family to grieve and say goodbye.
The way Dr. Lutri guided our baby through her final moments was nothing short of beautiful. It was peaceful, serene, and filled with love—exactly what we had hoped for. Knowing our fur baby passed in the comfort of her home, surrounded by love and without fear, has brought us immense comfort in our grief.
Dr. Lutri is truly a gift to families navigating the loss of a cherished companion. Her work is more than a service—it’s a calling, and we are forever thankful for her grace and empathy.
5.0Nov 13 2025 by Kelly J. Dr. Shanina Halbert is a compassionate and professional veterinarian who came to our home to help us when the difficult time came to put our 17-year-old cat, Manuelita, to rest. She was kind, communicative and gentle, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat felt safe on her final journey and went peacefully at home in our arms. Her calm bedside manner, clear communication, and genuine kindness made a painful experience much more manageable. She arrived promptly after short, off-hours notice, and treated our home and pet with great respect, care, and dignity. I am deeply grateful to and highly recommend CodaPet and Dr. Halbert to anyone seeking a caring, dignified at-home euthanasia service for a beloved pet.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by John Coulter We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our old friend Devo and we were fortunate enough to work with Dr. Daniela Lutri to schedule an in home pet euthanasia appointment. She was so kind, professional, and comforting during an extremely emotional time. She made sure he was comfortable and at ease during the process and continuously checked in with me and how I was doing through each step. With her help, Devo was able to pass in the comfort of our own home, under our big tree and in my lap. Though I hope it won’t be for a long while, I would undoubtedly contact her again for her assistance. I have recommended not only in home pet euthanasia to my friends and family with pets, but also recommended her specifically. I am so grateful for her and her help.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Kayla Kimmel Dr. Lutri was amazing and wonderful through this difficult process. I don’t know what I would have done if I had to have taken Ellie in and move her. My sweet furry bestie was comfortable on the place she always felt secure. We were all by her side and she went “to sleep” so peacefully. Dr. Lutri was thoughtful and so caring. I would highly recommend her.
5.0Feb 26 2026 by Jennifer P. Dr. Brittany Rizzo was so compassionate and understanding when it was time for us to say goodbye to our Max. Having this done at home made it so much easier and it was so much more comfortable for Max to not have to go somewhere strange. Thank you!🩷
5.0Jun 07 2026 by Denise Ray Dr Meadows and Abby had so much patience and understanding with us during our beloved 15 year old pit bull Ana’s passing. They answered all our questions and concerns with compassion and kindness.
They were outstanding in how they treated Ana with respect and tenderness.
Their follow-up support page is a great tool for assisting with our grief and feelings of extreme loneliness.
Highly recommended.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by RICHARD GARNETT Dr. Lutri was truly amazing! She was very compassionate and understanding of the situation and made a very difficult time a bit better.
5.0Apr 05 2026 by Lisa G. Our experience with Christina Divine was very positive. She was a sweet friendly person who took the time to explain all aspects of the procedure. She did it in a respectful way that made all of us comfortable. It is an awful thing to go through. I highly recommend her. May jazzy jasper RIP.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Michelle Courtney Dr. Dawn was so gentle and understanding throughout the whole process, and was great with the kids who wanted to be there too. I would definitely recommend her services to others.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Katie Richards We had in home euthanasia this week for our beloved 17 year old cat Figaro. It was an emotional experience, but CodaPet and Dr. Courtney Mills made it a peaceful one. They were there for the whole thing. She was compassionate, understanding, gentle. I would recommend her and this company in a heartbeat for anyone wanting something personal for the passing our their baby.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Jodi Tower It was heart-breaking to say good-bye to our beloved cat, Yeti. When he was so ill he stopped eating and drinking, we knew we had to help him cross the rainbow bridge- he was in so much pain. CodaPet helped Yeti to cross to the other side at home, in a safe place, surrounded by love and family. At home pet euthanasia helped us make Yeti's passing as painless and stress-free for our cat as possible - a trip in the car to the vet in the cat carrier was one of his least favorite things. Being able to avoid that as one of his last experiences with us was a gift.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Carol Artacho-Guerra Me and my family had to make the difficult decision to euthanize our family cat Charlie who had been with us for over 18 years after his health suddenly declined into his old age, and Dr. Kristin Kemper was such a blessing to have to help us go through the entire process.
We chose in home pet euthanasia, and she was so beyond kind, patient and understanding towards us during what was easily one of the worst days of mine and my family’s life. Not only that, but the process was extremely peaceful for our Charlie and he experienced no pain or discomfort the entire time. It was done in the backyard, one of his favorite places, and Dr. Kemper showed our boy tremendous respect from beginning to end.
Despite it still being one of the most difficult decisions we’ve ever had to make, I’m so grateful we were able to do it peacefully for him in a place that was familiar to him, and without pain or fear. Dr. Kemper ensured that Charlie was well taken care of, and he went easily, surrounded by the people who love him most, and in his favorite place in the world, and she is to thank for that.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Em Davis Dr. Stukey and CodaPet made one of the hardest decisions we as pet owners have to make.
She handled my Bentley with the same amount of care and compassion as if she had raised him herself. She communicated everything step by step, never once rushed the process and only processed when I felt comfortable.
Thank you for everything you did for us, Dr. Stukey. ❤️
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Michael Kurr I am so thankful I found CodaPet when it was time to put my little Squeaky down. Dr. Christina is and was nothing short of an actual angel! She explained the process and also let us have our time with Squeaky to say goodbye. She was compassionate and caring. Gentle with us in our worst moment and understanding. She asked questions to get us talking about Squeaky’s life and not just her passing. My other cat who is usually skittish even came by to say hello. My wish was always for Squeaky to pass comfortably and safely at home in my arms with us and Dr. Christina gave us that gift. It’s never a perfect time to say goodbye or an easy decision to make but Dr. Christina made me feel supported. She even checked in with me a few days after. She is wonderful and I’m so happy I found CodaPet and Dr. Christina because I was able to give my little girl the goodbye she deserved. Lastly she even gifted us a small handmade pillow that I placed in Squeaky’s favorite spot and the gift made her spot feel less empty. It was such a touching gesture and one I desperately needed. Thank you again CodaPet and Dr. Christina.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Stephanie Curry Dr. Daniela is an angel. I wasn’t sure what to expect going through the in-home euthanasia process and Dr. Daniela was kind enough to answer questions.
I was able to give my beloved Scooby some of his favorites: cream cheese, whipped cream, and as we began: his absolute favorite: cheeseburgers.
Dr. Daniela explained each step as we went along and it helped calm me, which helped keep Scooby calm.
I will be forever grateful to Dr. Daniela for helping me give Scooby the opportunity to transition with dignity in the comfort of his home.
I had Scooby for nearly 12 years, the ultimate best friend, he helped me through illness, the loss of my father. I rescued him from a high-kill shelter, but really, he rescued me.
I am forever grateful that I was able to be with Scooby as he transitioned and became my guardian angel.❤️
5.0Apr 06 2026 by Brenda B. Dr. Lutri was very patient and caring with our 16 year old dog. She showed great compassion and took time to explain the process. Highly recommend her!
5.0Jan 26 2026 by Gary C. On one of the worst days of my life, Dr. Lutri gave me the gift of peace. I didn't know what to expect with an in home euthanasia, but I can say that from the moment she contacted me after I made the appointment, she was nothing but kind and reassuring. She comforted me, gave me all the time I needed, and most importantly, was sweet and kind to my baby Cleo all the way through the process. If I ever have to make this decision again, there is no doubt that I will contact Daniela.
5.0Apr 16 2026 by Tatiana I. Dr. Daniela Lutri was very kind, warm and patient with us and our beloved cat. She helped us understand what our cat was going through and eased our guilt with scheduling her euthenasia. We didn't feel rushed either. Given the circumstances, it was a good experience.
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Cindy G. Dr. Thomas was so pleasant and helpful in the care provided for our sweet penny. Such a comfort for our cat to pass away at home painlessly without the added stress traveling to the veterinarian’s office.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Les Schwanbeck She explained every step and told us what to expect. Communicating with her was easy and she was in contact with us for her arrival time and was personable. We felt comfortable with her and she was kind enough to let me know when my Wolfie’s ashes arrived and she delivered him personally to our home. Thank you for making this difficult time easier.
5.0Feb 16 2026 by Jennifer G. A kind, gentle, loving and genuinely professional person, Dr. Somerset was exactly who we needed to help our 20 1/2 year old cat, Emma, in her transition. I met Dr. Somerset as a vet at the office and now as a person who helps animals and their pet parents at the end of life. She was understanding and real. The energy that she exuded the entire time was love and compassion, She made an extremely difficult and stressful decision easier for both me and my husband. Enough said. Our Emma is over the rainbow now.✨🌈✨ Safe and sound. Thank you, Dr Somerset. . . from the depth of our hearts. ✨💖✨
(This is our second experience with CodaPet. Both experiences have been exceptional in Professionalism, Loving Kindness and Compassion. In both situations, we were able to get an appointment the very same day that we called.)
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Liza Elliott Dr. Daniela Lutri was amazing. This was a really hard time for my family and she was very compassionate. She answered any questions thoroughly and described the process step by step. I would highly recommend Dr. Lutri to anyone who is struggling the process.
5.0Nov 12 2025 by Jonathan M. This was my first time ever using an at-home euthanasia service. I don't think I will ever do it any other way in the future, if at all possible.
Dr. Perzak was so wonderful. She was so kind and caring. She really helped make my Mystic's passing beautiful. I can't thank her enough.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Molly Minckler Dr. Ann Gonnering was an exceptional doctor and gave great care to both our dog and our family. She came in and explained to us the process, what it would look like, what we would see, and how it would end. She was very calm and comforting and understanding. We have never been through a process like this before and we would definitely use Dr. Ann again. Thank you so much.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Lauren Pedecone Dr. Daniela Lutri made this painful process so much easier. The minute we met her it was like we had known her for years. She is so compassionate and friendly. She gave us a big hug as soon as she walked in. We had to put down a sister and a brother 8 days apart. It was devasting but, Daniel was so comforting. She reassured us they would be out of pain and happier. Both had stopped eating and were crying from pain from their illness. She rearranged her schedule just so she could come back for our other dog 8 days after the first one. She even hand delivered both cedar boxes of ashes together. We absolutely love Daniela and she made the painful experience much bearable.
5.0Dec 12 2025 by Lisa T. I really can't say enough about Dr. Daniela. We had a shock one day as our dog, who had been quite well, suddenly developed a pericardial effusion. Long story short, he didn't have more than about 24 hours to live. We called Dr. Daniela as she was wonderful with our daughters dog. I called her at night and was surprised to find she was able to come over the same night. Our dog being able to pass in the comfort of a favorite spot made us feel better for him. Dr Daniela has so much kindness, and compassion. She truly made this very difficult time a bit easier with her comforting words, understanding and gentle handling of our dog Bowie. She is truly a one of a kind wonderful person
5.0Feb 19 2026 by Linda P. I always promised my Bailey a peaceful and pain was ending, and that's exactly what happened thanks to Dr. Daniela.
Dr. Daniela did something completely different from anything I had experienced with my other pets, and it brought me an incredible amount of comfort during one of the hardest moments of my life.
In the past, my pets were given an IV in their leg before any pain medication or sedation. It was upsetting to watch because they were uncomfortable, fighting the process, and clearly stressed. With Dr. Daniela, my cat never even flinched.
She used a gentle three step process that allowed my cat to peacefully cross the Rainbow Bridge in my arms without fear, pain, or the discomfort of needles and IV placement.
First, she used a tiny needle to give him an opioid and pain medication in the scruff area. The needle was so small he did not even notice it. She then waited about 10 minutes, and during that time he was completely relaxed, comfortable, pain free, and calm.
Next, when I was ready, she gave him a sedative with another very small needle in his back leg. Because he was already relaxed and on opioids, he did not react at all! Then, when I was ready, she administered the final medication.
The entire process felt gentle, calm, and compassionate. Dr. Daniela explained every step with kindness and empathy, which helped me tremendously through my grief.
I am completely at peace with how everything happened. Knowing my cat passed away feeling safe, comfortable, and loved in my arms gives me enormous comfort. After experiencing this level of care, I would never choose any other approach for my pets in the future.
At end, Dr. Daniela brought out a really comfy pet bed lined with fluffy blankets to take my fur baby away. That made me feel even better about the entire situation knowing his last trip was exactly how he would have loved it to be.
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Angella R. Haven’t been able to talk about my Oliver. He left me way too soon. He was part of my soul and Dr Daniela knew that. She helped him cross over with all the love and respect he deserved. She helped me grieve and I am so grateful to her. She is gentle, sweet and caring.
5.0Dec 09 2025 by Vivian F. My baby went across the rainbow bridge. Peacefully she departed with Daniela by my side.
This has been the second most heartbreaking moment in my life. Daniela saw me at my worst, crying, unable to speak and somber. She had such care and compassion. I don’t think anyone else would’ve been able to help me the way she did. I would only work with Daniela if I had to go through this again. Please see my feedback as authentic. I usually don’t talk about my experiences. But Daniela aiding us through this tough time really resonated with me.
5.0May 22 2026 by Monique Z.
There are no words that fully capture the gratitude I feel for Dr. Daniela Lutri. During the most heartbreaking moment of my life, she showed up with an incredible amount of compassion, patience, and gentleness. She treated my sweet Harley with such dignity and respect, and she treated me with kindness when I was completely broken.
Dr. Lutri took the time to explain everything, never rushed a single step, and made sure Harley was comfortable, peaceful, and surrounded by love. The calm presence she brought into my home made an unbearable situation feel just a little more humane and a little less terrifying.
Saying goodbye to a soul dog is devastating, but knowing Harley passed quietly, pain-free, and in my arms is something I will forever be grateful for. Dr. Lutri gave us the gift of a peaceful goodbye, and that is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
I cannot recommend her enough to anyone facing this impossible decision. She truly does this work from the heart.
5.0Jan 19 2026 by Camille C. Choosing in-home pet euthanasia for our beloved Cain was the best decision we could have made during such a heartbreaking time. Dr. Laura Smith brought an incredible amount of compassion, respect, and calm to our home. Being able to say goodbye to Cain in his own comfortable, familiar surroundings—without the stress of a final trip to a clinic—brought our family immense peace. We are so grateful for the dignity and gentle care shown to Cain in his final moments.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by David Joyner Dr. Lutri deserves a 10 out of 10! She was very caring, compassionate and highly skilled. Our dog did not suffer and the all the meds worked well and she passed away peacefully in good hands! Would 100% recommend Dr. Lutri to friends and family!! 🐕
5.0Oct 24 2025 by Allan C. Dr. Lutri was incredibly kind, patient, and did all the right things to make our last minutes with our dear friend as peaceful and painless as possible. I am grateful we were able to say goodbye at home and I am grateful Dr. Lutri was the one to help us. She has a kind heart.
5.0Mar 15 2026 by Jordan D. I've had to say goodbye to multiple pets through the years and working with Coda Pet made it so much easier than before. Dr. Stukey was incredible; compassionate, informative, and nonjudgemental. It was worth every penny.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Wende Baker Saying goodbye to our beloved dog far too early was the hardest day of my life but Dr. Caitlin Klepper helped make a hard day incredibly special. The at-home service was exactly the environment our hearts needed to grieve and say goodbye to Phoebe. We had soft music playing, Phoebe was surrounded by all the people she loved dearly, and Dr. Klepper was so sincere, respectful, informational, and comforting. She walked us through each step and did it in our own time. I still replay the day in my head over and over again and as hard as it is, it was a day that was filled with so much peace as well. I highly recommend CodaPet if you’re able. The bedside manner that was displayed is one you pray humans get as well.
5.0Jun 08 2026 by Carisah Clark How does one ever fully come to grips with the decision to say goodbye to a family member? I don't know. That was a reality we had to face with our dog Blaze after just ten short years together. We wanted his last moments to be at home surrounded by us and his brothers. Our hearts were full of questions, anxiety, and grief, but when the time came, Dr. April Le Blanc gave us the support and reassurance we needed. She came to our home and was kind and warm and made sure Blaze was comfortable. We can't imagine having to go through this process without her guidance.
5.0Jun 07 2026 by Yiwei Gao Dr April Le Blanc provided exceptional care and attention. She is very experienced, knowledgable, friendly and calming. She explained what would happen, allowed us private time with our beloved pet cat, and assisted me in holding him through his last minutes of life. We recommend her most highly, and will always be grateful for her skill and her caring, warm guidance through this very difficult transition.
