Verified Veterinarian
I became a veterinarian because I believe it is our responsibility as humans to care for animals who don't have a voice or much of a choice in their lives. Whether it's a wild animal, a farm animal, or a pet, we humans impact their environment and what happens to them. My mission is to make every animal I care for feel loved and safe in any situation. Throughout my career, I have had to euthanize many animals, which is never an easy thing to do. During this difficult task, I have developed a way to focus all my love and attention on the life of the animal, not the euthanasia. So that in this challenging situation, the animal feels safe and loved during this peaceful passing, and the owners feel at peace with the decision that has been made.

Dr. Mitchell was wonderful. She was very caring with our pet and our family durning a difficult time. I would highly recommend Dr. Mitchell.
I highly recommend Dr. Cara Mitchel for home visits. It was time for my sweet boy, Eli, to go and I couldn’t bear taking him to the veterinary hospital. This way and the under loving care and expertise of Dr. Cara, Eli passed in peace in his home with all of his loved ones. Thank you and bless you, Dr. Cara Mitchell. Debbie DeCosta
I was devastated when I came to the realization that my Mazie girl was so sick that she wasn’t going to get better. I dreaded the final moments of her life ending in a place she hated to go. Thank goodness a friend reached out to me about Dr. Cara Mitchell! Dr. Mitchell came to the house where Mazie would take her final journey. Mazie was at ease (as much as possible). Dr . Mitchell explained step by step what was going to happen. Dr. Mitchells hugs and tears along with mine told me all I needed to know about her! I would highly recommend Cara Mitchell if you are facing the heart wrenching decision to put your fur baby to sleep. Dr. Mitchell is so patient, caring and understanding not to rush you with the final goodbye to your precious fur baby.
I was lucky enough to find DR. Cara Mitchell to assist with the passing of my sweet beautiful Daisy (my almost 12 year old Englishbulldog). Daisy got to pass away so peaceful in her bed at her home with the people who loved her. DR. Mitchell went beyond what I expected to make this a easy process for all of us. She is absolutely wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone going through this painful decision. I thank God for such a caring wonderful person. RIP Daisy 🩷
We are absolutely so grateful for the peaceful passing of our beloved Katie. Dr. Mitchell was amazing. She led us through every aspect of the procedure, we felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for your caring spirit!!
I would recommend Dr. Mitchell and CodaPet to every single pet parent. Having the option for professional care at home is priceless. While letting any pet go is one of the saddest and hardest decisions, it was an easy decision to use CodaPet so my cat could stay at home in her safe space and in my arms until the very end. Dr. Mitchell was so very gentle and sweet to my cat and comforting to me as well during such a difficult time. Highly highly recommend.
