Dr. Sarah Clem was extremely kind and transparent with the at home euthanasia process. I felt in the best hands during such a vulnerable and sad time. I’m very grateful for how my sweet girl was laid to rest in the most peaceful way after an incredible 18 years. Would highly recommend

Such a great experience, during such a difficult event. Dr. Anna Peterson was incredible. So kind, kept things light, and was so skilled. Thank you!

Dr. Lori Thomas gave Cassie a peaceful and dignified passing at home, surrounded by the people, music, flowers, and familiar comforts she loved. Her calm presence and compassionate care helped guide not only Cassie, but our entire family, through one of the hardest moments we’ve faced. We were able to let Cassie rest in her own backyard, with her pack nearby, and say goodbye in a way filled with love, respect, and peace. We will always be grateful for the kindness and grace Dr. Thomas brought to Cassie’s final journey.

Dr. Angela helped us through this very painful experience. Her empathy for us and her care for our loved pet made helped us all in more ways than we can express. Ellie was in her home surroundings so she was not nervous at all. We were able to comfort Ellie as Dr. Angela helped us through her transition from her pain to the next world where she could run, play and be loved. Dr. Angela was so kind and so considerate of all of us. She is absolutely the best! We cannot say enough kind words about her. Thank you so much for helping Ellie and us through this.

Dr Mills was incredible. Compassionate, caring, patient, loving.... all the things you'd hope for in the situation. We've had other in-home euthanasia experiences, but this was the absolute best. We felt supported throughout, the communication was amazing. She explained the process and what she was doing when and why. I hope not to have to use her services again, but if we do, I'll be using Dr Mills. 15/5 would recommend

We had to say goodbye to our pup Leo, who we had for 16 years, and it was one of the most painful things I ever had to do. Leo had advanced kidney disease and his health quickly deteriorated. We had scheduled a Coda Appointment with Dr. Derecka Alexander for a Tuesday, but Leo’s health took a turn for the worse on a Sunday. I emailed Coda Pet to ask if there was any possibility any Vet could come out sooner. Dr. Alexander immediately contacted me and made herself available in our time of need. We were so appreciative of Dr. Alexander’s compassion and kindness in helping our beloved pup Leo cross over the rainbow bridge, especially after it became urgent. She made a very difficult experience of us having to say goodbye to our pup more manageable. We chose to get a Vet to come to our home for our final goodbye to our Leo because we wanted him to be surrounded by the warmth of our love, the comfort of his family, and the smells and sounds he has always known. I wanted his last memories to be of us — his family — holding him, kissing him, thanking him. Thank you, Dr. Alexander, for allowing us to provide that to our pup Leo.
