Whenever possible, people want to be able to go home from the hospital for their remaining days, to die at home. Families want the same for their pets. As in-home pet euthanasia has finally become a viable option, I knew I could add value to the euthanasia experience because of my veterinary experience and my compassion for those pet parents who are deeply grieved over the loss of their four-legged family member. I see this as my calling, to care for the members of my local community.

Dr. Karen Duncan was/ is wonderful. She came as a blessing during the time when our kitty needed it most. She was so kind and merciful, that even my hard-core mother was tearing for a few days. As much as it was hard to loose a long-time companion and family member, Dr. Duncan (and the way the services were arranged) was a gift. Thank you for your kindness, Doctor.
Karen Duncan DMV. Was the most soothing and caring person and we truly appreciated her approach to help Baxter pass. This experience will always be remembered as a sad and wonderful way to say goodbye to our beloved cat. Thank you Karen for everything.
Dr. Duncan was very warm, caring, and immensely helpful during a very difficult time. Nigel was a wonderful cat - more dog than cat. He still greeted us at the door, demanded pets, and sat in our laps whenever we sat still long enough. But he had a huge tumor under his tongue, he had lost so much weight, and eating was so painful he could only attempt with a dose of pain medicine. He couldn’t groom himself anymore and his fur was covered in mats. And yet he still sought out love and affection, so we were so torn about what to do. Dr. Duncan helped us process all those emotions and facts and was completely caring and supportive. She allowed us to give Nigel the gift of dying without prolonged suffering, and without an anxiety ridden last day of a thirty minute car ride to the vet in a cat carrier in a sterile vets office smelling of fear and pain. He died peacefully in his own home without fear. I’m so grateful.
Our experience with Dr Karen Duncan and Codapet- At home pet euthanasia made an extremely difficult and sad time, one that we found peaceful and reverent for our dear Gracie and for my husband and myself. Dr Karen was very gentle and caring. She explained everything as the process moved along. We truly believe this was the kindness gift we could give to our long time loyal and faithful friend, a very peaceful passing. Thank you Dr Karen.
Karen helped to make a very painful experience one that was exceptionally peaceful. I will always have positive memories of Chopper’s last moments because of Karen’s caring and compassionate service. I’m so very grateful that I chose this option.
She was wonderful and helped my Son through a very painful decision that it was time for his best friend of 15 years to go over the Rainbow Bridge. Very compasionate!
