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 was wonderful. I called her an angel on earth. She was so kind, loving and calming. She was so sweet with our 18 y/o Himalayan cat Cymba. Having her come to our home was very special. She made a terrible moment in time beautiful and peaceful for our cat and for us. We were very emotional and she gave us our time and guided us through the process. Cymba was very ready, very sick and at the end of life. She told us we were giving him a beautiful gift. I appreciated those words more than she will ever know. I don't wish anyone to lose their furry loved ones but if the time comes I highly recommend Dr. Karen.
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.
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.
Dr.Karen Duncan is an angel on earth. She provided the most calm, quiet, special experience for our beloved Isabella's passing. We felt safe to express our grief with no judgement, only compassion, empathy and understanding. It was a gift that she provided to our beloved girl, being able to pass over the rainbow bridge with those she loved most holding her and telling her we loved her. Thank you Dr. Duncan for that wonderful gift.❤️
CodaPet and especially Dr. Duncan were amazing when the time came. They worked with us to make the moment as comfortable, relaxing and peaceful as we ever could have hoped for. Immensely grateful for their support.
Dr. Karen Duncan is amazing for in home pet euthanasia. Her caring demeanor and patient presence made Ella’s passing less painful than it might have been. She allowed me to hold her in my arms and watch her peacefully fall asleep while gazing into my eyes. It allowed me to treasure those moments, feeling that Ella knew how much she was loved. I would highly recommend Dr. Duncan for anyone who loves their pet as family, as she exemplifies the kindness and love we pray for at that most difficult time of life.
