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

Dr Kelly is an amazing Vet helping those of us who are in distress about the decline of our beautiful animals. The website is very easy, Dr Kelly connects on a personal level after your decision is made and continues to give you options at this difficult time. Dr Kelly is kind and comforting and treats all with respect. A heart felt condolence card was in the mail. Dr Kelly returned our ashes in a beautiful box that was wrapped with love and care. She was still asking and concerned about the ones who are grieving the loss of their best friend. I highly recommend Dr Kelly’s services.

She is very responsive and sensitive to a pet parents’ needs. She gave us all the support throughout the tough times we have experienced while caring for our beloved pal, Flash.

Review by Dr. Kelli Bays

Dr Kelli Bays was the exact doctor we needed for Gracie. She was perfect! Her gentle and calm demeanor, her ability to understand what Gracie and we needed at this difficult time, were priceless. She explained every step without making us feel that she is hurrying through a process . She took her time and she gave Gracie a peaceful goodbye. We are ever grateful for her service and codapet. Saying goodbye to a beloved animal, family member is never easy , but with Dr Kelli we felt that our Gracie was in the best hands possible.

Compassionate, quick care from Dr. Bays. She helped make the process peaceful and calm. We appreciated the footprint keepsake and the basket and blanket for taking our dear pet away for cremation.
