Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

In general practice, I always gravitated toward end of life care for pets and their families as she felt it was important to provide a peaceful experience for pets and their parents. I believe that in-home euthanasia creates a calm and comforting environment for pets and their families as they say goodbye to their life-long companions.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Harper was great. She made a very difficult time into a good experience. My cat was feisty and we needed a special attack to get the initial injection. We worked as a team and she was able to get the full dose of anesthesia in and the process happened quickly. I know Buddy went peacefully and Dr. Harper went above and beyond to comfort us.

The loss of Dallas was more than the passing of a beloved pet. He was my best friend, fierce protector and loyal companion. We had been through a lot together - break up of a long-term relationship, moving from Florida to Tennessee, the loss of employment, new employment and our health issues. Dallas was only 7, but he had terminal cancer. He was courageously fighting the disease, but his body was becoming weak. Dr. Harper was incredible - I don't think she even knows how amazing she is! She helped us get through the worst day in my life. She considered Dallas' needs and devised a plan, so we would not have to muzzle him (as we did at the vet). She wanted to give him a peaceful passing. She did not treat Dallas like a dog, but a beloved family member. I am so thankful that she was the one who came to our home. She was amazing and I will forever be grateful to her! She used such care in the way she wrapped Dallas up in a blanket and let us send him off with his favorite lamb toy, even though it was equal to the size of him (Dallas was a sixty-pound, blue American bully). She let us have as much time as we needed to say goodbye to him and handled him (& me) with the upmost care and compassion. She even called us the night before to see how Dallas was doing and gave me a few ideas to help him through the night. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Harper & CODA Pet for their caring treatment of my best friend at such an awful time. Their care and compassion will not be forgotten. Thank you, Dr. Harper for being such an amazing person and making it possible for us to send Dallas peacefully off with love. You are an incredibly special person.

Dr. Harper was the most gentle and caring person to us and our beloved pup when it came time to help him leave this world. We are so very grateful we found her.

I cannot thank Dr. Amanda Harper enough for the care and compassion she provided during one of the most difficult times for our family. She came to our home to help us say goodbye to our beloved dog, Chester, after 13 wonderful years together. Her professionalism, empathy, and gentle approach brought us comfort during an incredibly emotional time. She made sure Chester was at peace in his final moments, surrounded by the people who loved him most. We are forever grateful for her kindness and the care she provided. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants their pet to be treated with the utmost respect and compassion.

Dr. Amanda was so very kind, gentle and compassionate with our elder pup Philbert. It was the most peaceful and loving environment we could of asked for. She was very sweet and amazing with him and he barely even noticed what was happening, it was only happiness and snacks which is exactly how I want to remember our angel boy. Thank you for walking us through the experience and for helping us transition. It couldn't have been more perfect with the sun shining and the birds chirping outside. We had our time to say goodbye and it was very felt and genuinely one of the most moving experiences we have had collectively.
