Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Growing up I always new that I wanted to be a veterinarian. I do not remember ever considering another career. After graduating veterinary school I initially went into equine practice, and actually completed an equine surgery residency in Leesburg, VA. However, after having my daughter in late 2022, I knew I needed to change career paths. Providing in-home euthanasia allows me to provide personalized and vital care to owners and pets in my area while supporting a family-oriented lifestyle.

What pet parents are saying

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.

Review by Dr. Megan Lowman

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.

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.

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. ❤️🐾

Review by Dr. Megan Lowman

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. ❤❤❤
