What pet parents are saying

We are so grateful for the kindness and compassion shown during such a difficult time. The doctor was incredibly sweet and gentle with every step of the process, and I would highly recommend her to anyone facing this heartbreaking decision. After the procedure, she placed our little dog in a cozy bed and wrapped her lovingly in a blanket, which meant so much to us. Thank you for making this painful moment a little more bearable with your care and thoughtfulness. ❤️

Dr. Gersten was so kind, caring and professional as our 19 year old beloved cat was suffering from liver disease was put to rest. She fully explained the entire procedure to us and answered all of our questions. It was such a relief that Dr. Gersten is a come to your home Vet which allowed for a very quiet and peaceful passing of our beloved cat. My wife and I fully recommend Dr. Gersten and Codapet. Thanks so much Dr. Gersten for your caring and multiple follow ups checking on us.

Dr. Gersten was truly amazing. She made an extremely difficult decision easier. She was sympathetic to our grief. She made sure our dog was comfortable and surrounded with love.

This is the most caring and special group of loving people I have ever seen. Thank for everything you have done for our Penny girl. We just can not say enough good thing about how you helped us all with setting Penny free from all her pain. She is always in hearts.

Dr. Diana Gersten came to our home to help our pup, Thor, cross over the rainbow bridge. She's professional, compassionate and down-to-earth. She made this sad experience the best we could have hoped for. I highly recommend using her.

Dr. Gersten was extremely kind, patient and compassionate during the entire process. I felt very comfortable with her and the way she carefully explained everything. My expectations were exceeded today when I received my memorial package. I will definitely recommend Coda Pet and Dr. Gersten to family and friends!
