Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I believe precious memories with your pet should never be overshadowed by a stressful goodbye. I have firsthand experience with the stress of saying goodbye to my first dog, Willy, at the clinic, and since then being able to say goodbye to two other dogs at home. This is why a peaceful passing at home is so important to me.

What pet parents are saying

This was our first time with peaceful passing & I would definitely recommend. It's never easy saying goodbye. Dr. Gary is very kind with a gentle soul. He gave our family compassion and respect. Super amazing! I would love to be able to call him our primary vet.

We lost 3 pets within 1 year. There is a reason we keep calling Dr Gary Hsia. He is patient and respectful. His services allowed our pets to be where they were most comfortable in their last moments.

I want to thank Dr. Gary Hsia and CodaPet for their kindness and professionalism with helping me through the passing of my beloved little dog, Miley. Dr. Gary was so kind and sensitive to my needs and wishes in the transitioning of Miley. He understood my sorrow and took extra care in taking me through the process. I truly recommend CodaPet with the home care and handling of our beloved pets. Respectfully, Jean Caiazza

Dr. Hsia was very kind and gentle with our beloved Jeffrey. I couldn’t not have asked for such an incredibly sad and emotional experience to have gone any better. He explained everything thoroughly and made us feel very comfortable with the process. It truly was a peaceful passing at home. I’m so grateful we were able to do this for Jeffrey and not have to drive him back to the pet hospital. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the same situation.
