Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
From a young age, I have felt a deep connection to animals and a strong desire to support them through every stage of their lives. My decision to provide in-home humane euthanasia services stems from this passion, as well as my commitment to ensuring pets experience a peaceful passing in the comfort of their own home, surrounded by their loved ones. This approach honors the bond we share with our pets and offers families a compassionate and serene way to say goodbye.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Danielle Hundley helped us say goodbye to our beloved cat at home, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. She was incredibly compassionate, gentle, and respectful throughout the entire process. Her calm presence made a heartbreaking day a little more bearable. We are so grateful for her care and kindness.
This was my first experience losing a pet and this was the best decision that we made. danielle was so sweet and took the time to explain the process both before our appointment and during. The opportunity to do this at home was just what we needed to keep our girl mocha safe and warm in her own home instead of having anxiety from traveling and being in the vets office which can be scary for animals. I will be forever thankful to danielle and codapet for helping us during this time.
Charley, our beloved collie, was quickly declining in health. We decided on euthanasia at home because we felt a familiar environment would be less stressful for him. Dr Hundley of CodaPet did an excellent job. She was very kind, compassionate, and respectful. She was very calming and gentle with Charley. His passing was very peaceful. She also arranged and transported his body for cremation. We highly recommend her if you are considering pet euthanasia at home.
This service was a game changer when I needed it most. Dr. Hundley was incredibly kind, informative, and compassionate during my at-home euthanasia experience. Getting to say goodbye to my best friend in our shared space was the biggest blessing. You will not regret calling CodaPet. Thank you Dr. Hundley for making my last moments with Oreo the most comfortable possible, I am endlessly grateful.
Dr. Danielle was just what our boy needed in his final hours. Her attention to comfort and care for our boy Gabe, made his crossing over at home a gentle experience rather than one of stress, anxiety and unfamiliarity. The entire family( 3 generations) we able to surround and swaddle our boy in his final time with us.❤️
Dr. Hundley was very compassionate and supportive. We were glad that Sully was able to be at home in a comfortable and familiar space surrounded by those who loved him. We were very emotional but we knew it was the right thing to do. Dr.Hundley talked to us and Sully as he was crossing the rainbow bridge. She explained everything ahead of time and gave us time to make our own decision. She thought to ask if he had a favorite toy that he could take with him (which happened to be a tissue box - he is a boxer) and we sent him with his new blanket. She discussed private and group cremation, getting a paw print, clay print, or a Styrofoam print, and she thought to clip some of his soft fur from different spots with his different colors. I would highly recommend this service and Dr. Hundley for anyone who has to face this difficult decision.
