Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

A client said to me 'You must hate your job.' I explained that I'm here for you and your Family during one of your greatest times of need. Bringing comfort, peace, and ending suffering is a wonderful service we can offer our four-legged Family members. Households frequently comment they felt a huge relief, like the weight of worry and concern was removed, knowing they did everything possible. They also appreciated saying goodbye in their own home, to grieve in private, and that CodaPet handled all the arrangements. Bringing this comfort, peace, and calm to the community is my ‘why.’

Dr John was sent to us by God. He was so compassionate and took some time to get to know our Striker. This was indicative of his kindness and professionalism.

Having a vet come to my home to euthanize a pet is something that I have thought about for years, but have not done in the past for a variety of reasons. In this case, I had a German Shepherd that I have had for almost 12 years. Although she was brought up in a loving stable home with other animals, children, and unlimited space, was pathologically shy and fearful of strangers. I couldn’t bring myself to make her last life experience be getting carried to the car and into a clinic, which always terrified her, so I contacted CodaPet. Dr. Crawford came to my home after contacting me directly by text. He was not in a hurry and gave my dog time to process the fact that he was there without approaching her. She was nervous and jumpy but calmed down while we talked and I held her. He was gentle with her (and me) and explained the process with the necessary amount of detail and the process was smooth and painless. I could not have asked for a better experience, and if I ever have the need for this service again I will use this company and ask for Dr. Crawford specifically again. The experience of losing a family member is difficult at the best of times, but a home visit was invaluable. Thank you.

Dr. Crawford is exceptional! He came to our home and treated Shrek with kindness comfort and care. He showed compassion and kindness. He also brought Shrek back to us personally. We felt like he was part of our family. If I could give 100 stars I would. Thank you Dr. Crawford we will forever be grateful to you.
