Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Our pets provide us so much joy and happiness, that we can't ever truly be ready to say goodbye. After participating in euthanasia's in a clinic setting for 15 years, I'm relieved to be able to provide a more relaxing, peaceful, and personal alternative to pets and their families.

What pet parents are saying
Having Dr Pugh come to my house to put my 16 year old standard poodle to sleep was such a positive experience and I am so lucky to have discovered her instead of going to a cold Vets office. She was extremely professional and very sympathetic to what me and my family were going through. I highly recommend her ! She created a warm and loving environment in the confines of my home for the final send off to my best Friend Coal.
Dr. Pugh was kind, compassionate, and professional. She took the time to answer all of my children’s questions and concerns which really made an incredibly sad experience a bit easier. Dr. Pugh did not rush the process and every step felt personal and empathetic. If you find yourself having to say goodbye to a beloved pet, Dr. Pugh is the one you want by your side. Thank you ❤️
Dr. Kristina Pugh helped us say goodbye to our beloved cat, Rodney, with so much compassion and grace. She enabled us to have beautiful last moments together, making sure he was comfortable and surrounded by love. She gave us as much time as we needed, answered all of our questions, and explained what to expect before anything happened, which made the process gentler and less overwhelming. After days of watching him struggle in pain, it was such a relief to see him at peace. Dr. Pugh went out of her way to call the cemetery ahead of our arrival to make a special request on our behalf. We didn't know she had done that until we showed up there. It was a beautiful surprise. She was so professional, kind, and gentle, guiding our cat smoothly to the other side. I will be forever grateful that she gave him such a peaceful and dignified passing, and gave us the comfort of knowing he left this world loved and at ease.
Dr. Kristina Pugh, the Vet from CodaPet, was very kind in helping us with in-home pet euthanasia for our 16 year old kitty, Josie. She was warm, thoughtful and easy going. She helped us understand the process and helped us to help our other pets see the kitty after she passed away so they knew she was gone. It is such a difficult decision to make, but Dr. Pugh made it more comfortable.
We used the at home euthanasia services of Dr. Kristina Pugh for our cat Cricket. I am very thankful for the comfort she was able to provide us. The process was very smooth and professional in the comfort of our own home. Dr. Kristina provided a paw print for keepsake and helped us with after care arrangements. The peaceful, radiant vibe of Dr. Kristina is exactly what I want if I ever have to use at home euthanasia services. If the time comes when I have to do this again I will surely contact Dr. Pugh.
Dr. Kristina came to our home displaying kindness and concern for our cat and our family. It was a difficult day to invite a stranger into our home, but we felt at ease with Dr. Kristina as she assisted Spin in her peaceful transition.
