Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I wanted to become a veterinarian so that I could make a difference. When I was in college, I had a deep interest in science and research, and I loved to challenge myself. I was fortunate as a child to have parents that understood my love for animals and would allow me to "bring home the strays", so to speak. I worked for several years in the restaurant industry before deciding to use my gifts with people and animals, as well as my science background, to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian. I believe in the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. To me, this means treating the people I meet and the pets I take care of with respect, dignity, and compassion. I liken being a veterinarian to a pediatrician: Since both pets and small children cannot always communicate to me what is wrong, or where it hurts, it is up to me to listen to the pet parent and use what they say to help diagnose and treat their pet.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Perzak of Codapet was warm, caring and helped us through the loss of our beloved Cobie. This is a wonderful service for us pet owners who don't want to put our babies through any more stress by dragging them to an office. Highly recommended.
Dr. Perzak was absolutely amazing when she came out to help our sweet Dozer cross over the rainbow bridge. She was very kind, patient, and compassionate during this difficult time. We highly recommend her services if it is time to make this difficult decisions for your fur baby.
Dr. Perzak was Phibe's vet for most of her life. She took great pains to explain the whole Euthanasia procedure. Was very compassionate with my wife, who was having a very difficult time letting go of Phibe, our dog.
The scheduling was easy and everyone I spoke with was so kind and professional. Dr. Perzak from beginning to end was extremely supportive and compassionate to our needs. I would recommend CodaPet to anyone who looks to care for their fur babies at home. They are the absolute best at what they do.
Dr. Perzak was absolutely incredible, she immediately put my whole family at ease with her manner, care, and attentiveness. She was lovely with our son and took time to get to know our sweet cat. I am so grateful for her skill helping our cat pass on with comfort and care. Thank you so very much for being so amazing during such a hard day!
I cannot give enough stars. I have had to let many pets go through the years. This is the first time I have tried in home euthanasia and will never go back to the old way. Dr. Perzak was extremely compassionate and caring, explained everything and let us make decisions about timing. This a a beautiful tribute to your pet that removes stress and fear for them.
