Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I have wanted to be a veterinarian as far back as I can remember. I have always enjoyed getting to know pets and their people, and love to know more about what makes their bond special. Providing in-home euthanasia process is a privilege - and being able to let our beloved pets go peacefully with dignity is a gift.

What pet parents are saying
As difficult an experience as our in-home euthanasia appointment was, CodaPet was compassionate and helpful throughout the entire process, and relieved the stress around the logistical and administrative part of saying goodbye to a pet and friend. There are not enough positive words to say about Dr. Larsen. She was highly communicative and available leading up to the appointment, arrived on time, and handled the business side of things in a very respectful and professional manner. Her bedside manner and attentiveness to our feelings and wishes were top-shelf. She handled our pet with care, empathy, and respect, which was greatly appreciated. Dr. Larsen definitely made this a little more bearable, and we are grateful for her compassion and professionalism.
She was absolutely wonderful. She gave us lots of time and space to be with our dog, communicated everything she was doing and when she was doing it. A truly remarkable vet.
Saying goodbye to our boy Rhett was one of the hardest things we have had to do as a family. We knew we wanted it to be peaceful and in our home. The day we knew it was time we contacted CodaPet and Dr. Larsen was available that same day. She was amazing and reassuring in our decision and timing. Having time to love and hold Rhett one last time meant the world to us. We miss him terribly but would not change anything about our time to say goodbye.
