Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I have always wanted to be a veterinarian, but my experiences with my senior heart dog, Arya, are what really made me passionate about end-of-life care and caring for senior pets.

What pet parents are saying

CodaPet was a great choice for our 14-year old cat's end-of-life needs. We were able to book a same-day, Saturday appointment, which was great since our old cat was starting to deteriorate quickly and we wanted euthanasia BEFORE he was experiencing pain and suffering (he'd already lost a good bit of weight). The veterinarian, Dr. Kelli Bays, was punctual, thorough in describing the steps of the procedure, professional, compassionate, and efficient. She was gentle and kind with our old cat, and allowed us to either hold him or put him in his favorite spot for his procedure. We ultimately chose their communal cremation option, and Dr. Bays took care of the delivery to the crematorium. It was such a relief NOT to make our sweet, old, dying cat ride in a car across town to a vet clinic, stressed out on his last day of life. Thank you CodaPet and Dr. Bays for the convenience and ease of home euthanasia. It's a great service and you made the experience stress free. If you are someone considering this service, CodaPet will not be a disappointing choice, but it is a business, so make sure you read the Q&A section of their website for cancelation and appointment change policies, while you are looking over their care options and memorial products.
