It seems an odd thing to give 5 stars for an in home pet euthanasia service. But, from the care of the phone call and the event itself...it felt like another member of our family was helping us through this terrible time and celebration of our small dog's life. Ava dog was 15.5 when she passed and suddenly in a lot of pain. Dr. Megan Lowman opened up and added a 9pm appointment to her schedule to help our sweet Ava in her time of need. She was careful, caring, loving, soft spoken, informative, and patient. The back of her van was set up like a small, clean and beautiful little bed... to take our baby girl to In Memorial Pet Cremation Services (also, 5 stars...I can't say enough kind words) . She was attentive and must have listened to all of the emotional stories and nonsense I was saying...because she sent a detailed and very personal card a few days later that mentioned our family members' names and even personal details about Ava's life. Thank you, Dr. Lowman and the wonderfully caring customer service at CodaPet for making this transition as caring and loving as possible.
5.0Jun 25 2025 by Rebecca Lynn Dr Megan was so gentle and caring and understanding with my terminally ill cat, Echo. It was as beautiful and as peaceful a passing as I could have hoped for as I held him in his favorite spot by the fire in my arms. She was especially terrific with my other two pets, giving them space and time to approach and grieve. While we never want to lose a pet to cancer, Dr. Megan’s care at home was a gift. Thank you for your kind and gentle nature and the loving care with which you attend to the end of life. I highly recommend Dr. Megan and CodaPet services.
5.0Feb 08 2025 by Tanya M. My sweet girl, Bella, crossed the rainbow bridge after over 16 years together due to the ugly C word. Dr. Lowman was exactly what my family needed at one of the most difficult times in our lives. She gave us time, explained what was happening, reassured us in our decision and also gave Bella the best send off with lots of treats. I highly recommend!
5.0Mar 06 2025 by Lisa Borja Dr. Megan Lowman was fantastic when I needed someone for an in-home euthanasia of my dog. She did a thorough assessment, listened to my concerns, and reassured me that I had made the right decision. Her calm, gentle demeanor was incredibly helpful during such a difficult time and she went out of her way to ensure the experience was what my dog and I needed - even allowing me and my other dog time to grieve together after the procedure. I hope to never have to do this again, but if I do, in-home euthanasia with CodaPet and Dr. Lowman will be my #1 choice!
5.0Feb 19 2025 by Caitlyn Delaney Dr. Lowman was so kind and informative about the process of saying goodbye to our sweet Hendrix. She took time to explain all the details and gave us all the time we needed at each step of the way. I felt it was the best final gift to our sweet boy to be able to say goodbye to him in the privacy and loving environment of our own home. Thank you, Dr. Lowman for your sensitivity and kindness!
5.0Mar 20 2025 by Julia F. choosing to have our baby girl cross the rainbow bridge at home was the best decision we could have made. Dr. Megan Lowman made the whole process smooth and comforting.
5.0Jan 20 2025 by Anje Garner So thankful we had Dr. Lowman with us through this difficult time. She was compassionate and detail-oriented when answering every single one of my questions. She went above and beyond and I trust that she made our girl's transition as easy as could be.
She was very calm and sweet with my cat and me, she was also informative about the process as she went along. She was the right doctor for my cat and me.
5.0Jul 29 2025 by Blair B. Dr. Lowman was so incredibly kind and peaceful during her visit. This decision was so hard for our family, but she reassured us we were doing the right thing for our dog. Having gone through this once before, it was exponentially better doing this at home, where our dog was comfortable and we didn’t have an audience. I know this must be a hard profession, but I’m so glad there are people like Dr.Lowman who can help us say goodbye without the added stress of a vet’s office or anxious pet.
5.0May 25 2024 by Rebecca D. Dr. Lowman was so kind and very professional. She was patient and clearly communicated the whole process. She made a very difficult day the best it could be. Highly recommend.
5.0Aug 29 2025 by Laura D. Dr. Megan was EXACTLY what we needed on this difficult day. She was kind, compassionate, and allowed us to move through the process T our own pace. Before we sent Kisses (our senior cat) with her, she explained next steps clearly and patiently waited for any questions or concerns we had. She went above and beyond to make sure that we received Kisses ashes.
Thank you so much, Megan. We are forever grateful for you and appreciate so much how you handled that moment for us.
5.0Aug 25 2025 by Sarah M. Dr Lowman euthanized my dog that I’ve had for over 14 years with such kindness and compassion. After I booked the appointment she contacted me to ask if I had any questions and helped talk me through my doubts. She went through a medical history to make sure I was making the right decision and helped me feel less guilty about it all. When she arrived, she was so calm and compassionate. My pet died peacefully in my arms and I couldn’t have imagined a better way for her to go. My heart is still broken but I’m so grateful for Dr Lowman for making the process easier.
Saying goodbye to a beloved furry family member is never easy, and this was my first time so I didn't know what to expect. Dr Megan Lowman and CodaPet exceeded our expectations. We booked an appointment within 3 days, received upfront estimate for the cost of services, and a warm introduction from Dr Lowman to assist with any questions.
Dr. Lowman arrived on time and was very professional but also warm and caring. She walked us through what to expect, gave our pup lots of treats and pets, and made sure she was comfortable. She gave us our space to say goodbye in the intimacy of our home and I cannot be more grateful for the experience.
A few days later, we received a check in from Dr Lowman and the handwritten note that was so thoughtful I have it saved in my memorial of our beloved Lady. I've already been telling my friends and family what a great experience it was, given the circumstances. I would recommend anyone evaluating their pet's end of life care to book with CodaPet, especially Dr. Lowman. Thank you all again for your care during a difficult time.
5.0May 09 2024 by Amber H I was connected to Dr. Lowman through CodaPet and was so thankful she was the one to help us say goodbye to our sweet pup. I had called around a few other places and couldn't find appointments within the week. I was beginning to worry I'd have to take my dog to the vet instead, which would have been extremely distressing for her. Thankfully, I checked CodaPet and was able to get a next-day appointment with Dr. Lowman. It was the perfect amount of time for us to spend one last good day with our girl, but also soon enough that she did not have to be in pain for long.
Dr. Lowman was kind, compassionate, and a great listener. She allowed me to tell her my dog's life story, ask questions, and quelled my fears and doubts about the process. She sent a sympathy card to us in the mail, which just meant so much during this tough time. I am so glad that I know between the time we said goodbye and the time she was taken for cremation, that she was in the best hands with Dr. Lowman. I could go on and on, but will just say there's no one else I'd have wanted to guide us through this difficult time. Very, very happy with CodaPet and Dr. Lowman despite the unfortunate circumstances we encountered them in.
5.0Apr 01 2025 by Ali Noone Megan was absolutely wonderful and empathetic. She gave us plenty of space to mourn while gently walking us through the process. Megan made our final goodbyes to Lucky as peaceful as possible and I can’t give high enough praise for her professionalism and ability to navigate a difficult situation. Thank you a million times to Megan for the work she does.
5.0Mar 10 2026 by Anthony R. Dr Lowman was fabulous. She was patient and calm. We never felt hurried. Honestly felt that she would stay as long as we needed her to stay. She listened to our stories. I would recommend her again and again.
5.0Mar 31 2026 by Regina K. Dr. Lowman helped make a devastating time in our lives feel bearable. She was incredibly kind and sweet to us and our dog Charlie. She gave us time to say goodbye in a peaceful and loving way, the way our Charlie deserved. One thing that may seem small, but was very important to me in my grief, was that she told us when Charlie would be cremated, and when we could pick up his ashes. It was a comfort to have this information. We previously went through having to euthanize our dog at a vets office, and it’s odd some of the things that stick with you in your grief. One of those things for me was not knowing where my dog’s body was, or when or where she’d be cremated, and then waiting weeks for an undetermined date when her ashes would be shipped to our home. Dr. Lowman has a gift, she has a very special way with animals and people alike. We are so grateful that she was able to come to our home and help us say goodbye to Charlie.
We were all devastated when it came time to put our beloved Nani to rest. I'm very glad that we were able to find Dr. Lowman to perform the procedure at our house. Dr. Lowman was very sensitive and empathetic to our feelings. She had a gentle yet professional way about her. She showed competency... someone who's done this many times before but also recognizing that it's different every time. Our Nani went to the rainbow bridge peacefully.
5.0Mar 27 2026 by Jerry L. Dr. Lowman was amazing! She could not be more gentle or kind or knowledgeable. I’m so thankful that she was able to help us during a sad time for our family. I 100% recommend her. Dr. Lowman is wonderful!
Dr. Lowman was so kind and caring. Having never met our dog Caesar, she treated him just like he was hers. She talked to him lovingly and to us with so much respect and support. Dr. Lowman allowed us to take the time we needed to say our 'sorrowful good-byes'. Dr. Lowman answered ALL of our in-depth questions regarding the entire procedure, and explained what she was doing when and what Caesar was experiencing at that time. Caesar was sleeping so peaceful and snoring. We love and miss our Caesar dearly. I whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Lowman. God Bless her!
5.0Apr 11 2025 by stacee c. Dr. Lowman was so professional, kind, and compassionate. She let us take our time to say goodbye to our girl and explained the process as she went. She also sent us a personal card a few days after. I highly recommend Dr. Lowman. She made the process as easy as possible.
5.0Feb 11 2025 by Lauren D. Charlie came to us back in 2013 from a friend in North Carolina. Since then, Charlie traveled the world with us until we settled in Virginia. By this time our little buddy was hanging on, but his body slowly started to fade until he was no longer able to move on his own. Sadly, when it came time to send our angle back to heaven, we turned to Coda Pet who sent us Dr. Lowman. I'll be honest... She is the definition of professionalism, courtesy, empathy, you name it. She was a godsend who was present in the moment, caring, and made the process feel seamless. There was no unnecessary conversation, no judgement, and she was very supportive of our decision given his condition. The entire process felt very genuine from the initial phone call to our interaction with Dr Lowman to picking up his remains.
If I thought for a second that Charlie was going to somehow pull out of his condition, I never would have made the call, and they reenforced that sentiment. That if at any time we felt that this was the wrong decision we could pull out. So, all that to say I am so lucky to have had this experience made less tragic by the loving and caring and professional team at Coda Pet. We even got a handwritten card from Dr Lowman. I mean come on. They truly care about you, and it shows. ❤❤❤
5.0Jun 03 2025 by Brian B. After 16 wonderful years with our beloved dog, Mickey, it was time to say good bye. We chose in-home pet euthanasia with Codapet. Dr. Megan Lowman was so kind, comforting, and expertly managed this difficult day. Although this was a very sad day, we are so thankful that Dr. Lowman helped us provide a peaceful end.
5.0Feb 19 2025 by Karen Smith When the time came, it was an enormous blessing to have Dr. Megan Lowman administer at-home euthanasia for our beloved Labrador, age 13 years.
On a five-star scale, we give Dr. Lowman 10 stars.
This veterinarian is intelligent, compassionate and the consummate professional. Answered all our questions. Gave exquisite care to our dog. Showed us grace by letting us say goodbye, tearfully and mournfully.
All of our friends loved our dog. After her passing, I told these friends that this cherished member of her extended family that our dog was granted a "beautiful death."
All thanks to the extraordinary care of Dr. Lowman and CodaPet.
That this old soul is at peace now gives us comfort.
-Katherine & Tom
5.0Nov 11 2024 by Katherine V. I’m was absolutely pleased with our decision to go with in home pet euthanasia. Dr. Lowman was incredibly thoughtful and her serene presence felt nothing but adequate to what we needed. It was a moment of deep bonding with my family and my kitty that will be forever missed.
5.0Mar 12 2025 by Mauro Ferrari Thank you Dr. Lowman for helping Molly and I through this difficult process. You were my & Molly’s angel on earth. I would highly you and your organization to anyone.
5.0Sep 06 2025 by Cathy Wood Dr. Lowman was wonderful. She reassured me the time was right to make this difficult decision. She explained everything and could not have been kinder or more respectful. It is not easy to do this but if you are at that point, Dr. Lowman is the right person.
5.0Jun 27 2024 by Maria H CodaPet gave us a gift of peace and compassion during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. Having them come to our home to help our beloved dog Bella pass on was the best decision we could have made. From the moment we reached out, the process was handled with such care and professionalism, which made everything feel less overwhelming.
The veterinarian was truly remarkable—so kind, gentle, and incredibly empathetic. She took the time to explain everything, allowing us to ask questions and never rushing us through the experience. Her demeanor was calming, and she treated our dog with the utmost respect and love, as if she had known her for years.
Being in the comfort of our home made all the difference. Our dog was able to rest in her favorite spot, surrounded by the people who loved her most, rather than being in an unfamiliar clinic setting. It was serene and peaceful, exactly as we had hoped. CodaPet made this heartbreaking moment feel like a beautiful farewell and gave us the closure we needed.
I cannot express how grateful we are for their kindness and expertise. If you are considering this service, I wholeheartedly recommend it. They provided more than care—They gave us a way to say goodbye with dignity, love, and peace. Thank you, CodaPet, for helping us honor our furry family member in such a meaningful way. ❤️🐾
5.0Nov 25 2024 by Steven May Jr. Dr. Lowman was communicative and extremely supportive during this difficult time with our dog, Lincoln. She explained the whole process and answered any questions we had. She also showed her kindness by following up and asking if we needed anything.
5.0Mar 10 2025 by Carlo J. Though it was utmost painful and sad decision we had to let our beloved Gucci go. Dr. Lowman reassured us of our decision, and carried out the process with such compassion and heart warming. Gucci had a calming, pain free, and was laid to rest
peacefully in our arms. We were given enough time to say goodbye to him. We are very thankful to Dr. Lowman for her professionalism, communication, and compassion from start to finish, and a heart felt sympathy card as we are still missing his presence. We highly recommend Dr. Lowman to any pet parents looking for a veterinarian for in home euthanasia.
Thank you so much Dr. Lowman, and Best wishes to you!
5.0Feb 02 2026 by Mylinh D. I would recommend CodaPet, and Dr. Lowman, to everyone. I was well taken care of during the process. Dr. Lowman was kind, understanding, and knowledgeable. I was fully supported. My dear boy, Timothy Harold, was comfortable and loved through the entirety of the process. It was so peaceful. And I am forever thankful.
5.0Apr 30 2024 by Katie S. Megan couldn’t have been any more empathetic or patient while helping us say goodbye to our beloved dog. Given our dog’s advanced age, she took extra steps to minimize any pain and allow her to slip away slowly. Highly recommend Megan for this most difficult task.
5.0Apr 24 2025 by Sandra C. When we had to make the difficult choice to put our fur-baby Matchbox down, we searched online and came across Dr. Megan Lowman's CodaPet Profile, and I am so thankful to have chosen her for our in-home pet euthanasia. She helped our beloved dog pass with care, respect, and dignity. She brought kindness, compassion, and understanding and was always mindful of our needs, all while ensuring the process went correctly. She talked us through every step, gave us necessary moments, and most importantly, made sure to treat and handle our dog with care. We cannot recommend Dr. Lowman more highly.
5.0Jan 15 2025 by Tati Borjes Dr. Lowman was so incredibly kind and respectful -- we couldn't have hoped for anything more during this difficult process. Her communication ahead of our appointment was thorough and informative, helping us understand what to expect on the day and steps to take after the day. She arrived right on time, greeted our pup with great care and affection, and helped all of us through taking the next step. We highly recommend her services and are genuinely filled with boundless gratitude that she was the one who ushered us through this.
5.0Sep 24 2025 by Jeannette M. I am writing to express my profound appreciation for the extraordinary care Dr. Lowman provided to our family. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and truly wonderful with our 8-year-old during what has been an exceptionally difficult time for us.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have had her guidance and support. Words cannot fully capture how thankful we are for her compassion and expertise, which helped us navigate this journey. We are forever grateful to have had her by our side as we said goodbye to our sweet boy Scrappy.
Thank you from, The Sleans
Dr. Lowman was so comforting during our rainbow appointment for our dog Teddy. She was professional and friendly throughout the visit. I’ve been recommending Dr. Lowman and codapet to anyone considering their options. My family and I had a lot of closure and a big part of that is because of Dr. Lowman. Thank you again.
5.0Jul 22 2025 by Kellie H. Thanks to Dr. Lowman for coming to our house at 9pm to allow our sweet boy to pass in peace. He was over 14 years old and his health rapidly declined within 48 hours. I cannot recommend a better more respectful way than to allow your fur family to pass in their own home with family by their side. Thanks again.
5.0Nov 19 2025 by SUSAN J. Dr. Lowman is very kind and caring. She helped us get through this difficult parting with support and understanding. She was also kind enough to return at a later date in with Blu’s urn. We will always be grateful for her helping us during this emotionally painful time.
5.0Jun 06 2025 by Lauren R. Dr. Lowman was very kind and the passing of my dog was peaceful. I will always appreciate this experience. My dog Chloe received lots of praise and treats.
5.0Jun 06 2024 by Alexa F Dr Megan Lowman was extremely empathetic, kind, patient as we put down our beloved dog. She gave us all the time we needed, made sure our dog was not in pain and went to sleep peacefully.
5.0Feb 06 2025 by Jeanine F. During such a difficult time recognizing that our 12 year old lab had reached the end of his life, we were comforted to find an option for in home euthanasia. Dr. Lowman was incredible kind and compassionate. She explained the process and made sure we were ready and had time to say our goodbyes.
5.0Dec 15 2024 by Kristen Burke Dr. Lowman was wonderful. She helped us transition our cat of 9 years in a way that was meaningful and less painful in a familiar environment that lessened the stress on our cat. Her bedside manner is unparalleled. She is extremely compassionate, sensitive, professional and reliable in a way that is a rare find these days.
I strongly recommend her to anyone who is focusing on quality of life for their pet.
5.0Nov 16 2024 by carrington koebele There are endless things I could say about Dr. Megan Lowman, yet somehow none of them feel big enough to truly capture who she is. It may sound corny to say she has wings on her back—but sometimes the most heartfelt truths do sound that way. Because she does. From the moment she walks through the door, her empathy, kindness, and love fill every corner of the room.
Dr. Megan has now guided us through saying goodbye to two beloved family members—first Paddington, and most recently, Teddy. When we learned what Teddy was facing, I knew instantly that she was the only person I wanted by our side. She doesn’t just provide a service; she feels like family. She understands your heartbreak without you needing to explain it, and she stays fully present, offering steady compassion and genuine love in every moment.
I felt an immediate connection to her during Paddington’s passing—a deep sense of gratitude and trust from the very beginning. So, when it was Teddy’s time, there was no question that we needed that same tenderness and grace. And once again, the moment she arrived, the fear, anxiety, and overwhelming sadness softened. In their place, she brought calm, comfort, and peace.
Dr. Megan, you are truly extraordinary. Your compassion fills a space in a way that words can hardly describe. I am profoundly grateful—for your kindness, your warmth, and the love you showed my sweet Teddy. The difference you made in our home during such a painful moment is something I will always carry with me.
I am also deeply thankful to you and to Codpet for providing such a gentle, thoughtful service. Being able to let Teddy fall asleep in my office—one of his favorite places—without the disruption of a car ride, without stress or confusion, and without making that heartbreaking drive home alone… it was more than I could have hoped for. It was a gift.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart,
Krista Geller.
