Mac was my first pet- my kitty cat of 18 years. I consider myself very fortunate to have had him as a buddy for so long. So when he showed signs of his time being up, I knew from a friend -in home pet euthanasia- was a peaceful goodbye. Dr. John Murray was beyond thoughtful and professional with amazing bedside manner. Mac had a wonderful last day at home and I held him in my arms as we said goodbye. It was beyond hard, but I also wouldn’t have it any other way looking back. Mac hated his car carrier, the car, a vet office is so cold. We were in our beautiful, sunny room, comfortable and well, I’d want to go the same way! Thank you again for being so wonderful to our sweet baby.

Making the decision to euthanize our beloved cat Minnie was a difficult but it was made bearable due to Dr. Laura. She walked us through the process with patience and kindness which allayed our fears. My husband and I knew that Minnie was in good hands with Dr. Laura and we are truly grateful. We have already recommended Coda pet and Dr. Laura.

Saying goodbye to our pup Hugo after 15 years was one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to do, but Dr. Crawford made all the difference. We didn’t know what to expect, but he guided us through the entire process with such kindness, patience, and compassion that he made us all feel at ease during an incredibly emotional time. He treated Hugo with so much gentleness and dignity, and allowed us the comfort of saying goodbye peacefully at home surrounded by family. He explained everything clearly, never rushed us, and gave us the time and support we needed every step of the way. We are forever grateful for the care he showed not only to our beloved dog, but to our whole family. Thank you for helping give our sweet pup such a peaceful and loving goodbye.

We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.
