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 was not only caring, but her professionalism gave us reassurance at an important time. Only today, two weeks later, as we were spreading our dear pet's ashes near a special hiking place, did we find his dog tags among the ashes, just as it should have been. Now we will put the tags with the remaining ashes in the most special location. Thank you, Dr. Perzak and the Codapet team for handling everything just right. It gave Blazethe proper end to a life of love and activity.

Dr. Perzak provided the most compassionate care during a very hard decision. She helped our Dixie cross the rainbow bridge at home, in a calm and peaceful environment surrounded by love. Her kindness, patience, and gentle presence brought comfort to both our sweet girl and our family. We are forever grateful.

Review by Dr. Deborah Perzak

Dr. Perzak was very empathetic and kind throughout the entire process, even bringing our sweet girl's paw print and ashes back to the house after the fact. We appreciate her thoroughness during the process, and communication. We would recommend her to anyone. Thank you for making an already difficult situation more manageable.

Review by Dr. Deborah Perzak

I would 100 % recommend Dr. Perzak and CodaPet. She was professional, kind and understanding of the fears and emotions of a pet parent. I texted several times between booking and final service and she was always available with warmth and knowledge. Letting an aging pet go is heavy on the heart but the process was as calm and peaceful as it could be. My 14 yr old lab crossed the rainbow bridge comfortably at home surrounded by his family to include two canine buddies. There was no difficult travel to the vet or associated anxiety. A heartfelt Thank You to Dr. Perzak,💜
