Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

While I loved healthy puppy, kitten, and even reptile visits, I soon realized that sometimes a vet's job also necessitates relieving suffering and helping pets to pass peacefully. To be able to further experience and support the bond between humans and their pets has been an honor that I am truly grateful for. I believe that euthanasia in our pet’s homes is a peaceful, loving, and more comfortable way to help them pass, surrounded by the people they love. Family is so important and our pets make up such a special role in our lives.

What pet parents are saying

Dr Orth is always very kind and compassionate. This is the 3rd dog we have compassionately euthanized with her. She makes a very difficult situation as comfortable as it can be. We never felt rushed and she made time on her off day to help our fur baby cross the rainbow bridge.

We really appreciated the fact that Dr Orth came last minute on Friday evening. Riley had taken a turn for the worse earlier in the day and I was frantic on him having to survive the weekend. She came and was very gentle with Riley and was very sweet helping us help Riley to cross the rainbow bridge. Thank you again Dr Orth, we really appreciate you!

Dr. Orth was respectful of both our dog and the friends and family that were there. She was not in a hurry and took whatever time our pet needed. We are extremely appreciative!

Review by Dr. Mashawn Orth

"Dr. Orth was wonderful. This is always such a heartbreaking day to have to decide the fate of your animal. I was emotional and crying the whole time, but it’s normal and okay to be sad. Dr. Orth made our girl calm and happy and I wouldn’t have done it any other way. Our girl was almost 17, she lived a wonderful life all the to the end. It really was a peaceful goodbye and I would highly recommend coda pet to anyone. Worth every penny."

Dr. Orth demonstrated a level of loving-kindness that far exceeded our expectation. Her compassion, patience, and her knowledge is what we needed as we faced the loss of our dear boy Oliver. Codapet and Dr. Orth are a true blessing.

Review by Dr. Mashawn Orth

This was my first timing having to euthanize and I was unsure what to expect. Dr. Mashawn Orth was incredibly kind and caring towards my baby, Fozzie, and the whole experience seemed as peaceful and humane as it possibly could have been. I was very appreciative to be able to have her come to the home where he was comfortable. I would absolutely recommend her and Coda Pet.
