Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
After years in busy emergency and shelter medicine practice, I was drawn to a quieter, more personal kind of care. I focus on creating a calm, gentle, and dignified experience with as little stress as possible for everyone involved. Please visit my website for more information: www.solaceveterinary.com

What pet parents are saying
Dr Wratten was amazing. Hard to mix all these feelings at this tragic moment, but she, somehow, made it. We decided by an euthanasia in home. Dr Wratten did everything in the most humane way, explaining every step, respecting our moment, and giving comfort. Thank you so much for your work! I know it may sound counter intuitive, but the way she conducted the in-home euthanasia reduced our pain, from our cat and to us as well.
Coco was our rescued cat for 10+ years and we had poor experience with taking our previous cats to the vets for their final trip. So when we saw CodaPet, we were blessed to have Dr. Sarah Wratten administer Coco's last moments with us. We had Coco here quietly with her favorite smells and sounds and us around. Dr Sarah was gentle, compassionate and, most of all, reassuring as we had never had our other cats euthanized with us at home. Dr. Sarah talked us through each step both before and during. And it was like Coco fell asleep in our laps and peacefully transitioned. Of course, we were Very Sad but experienced the most gentle passing we could hope for. No drama, no noise, at her home for so many years. This is always going to be a tough moment for any pet owner but CodaPet and Dr. Sarah met the moment with professionalism, grace, and calm that made it the best send-off for Coco we could have ever hoped for.
Dr. Wratten is a gem of a person. She brought such a gentle, peaceful energy to such a heavy moment. She was so kind to both Diego and me, and was mindful of both the physical and emotional elements. I appreciate her so much and will forever be grateful that she was the one to aid with this transition.
Sarah was so kind and respectful. She guided us through Molly's passing with comfort and support. We really appreciate that we did not feel rushed at any portion.
We unfortunately had to make the heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to our 17-year-old dog, Rosy. When Dr. Sarah Warren arrived, she immediately embraced my parents with a hug as if she were an old friend. From the moment she came to Rosy and me, she gave off such a calm, loving, and comforting presence that even in one of the most painful moments of our lives, she brought us peace. She explained the entire process with such respect, compassion, and clarity. She climbed onto the bed with Rosy and me, gently gave her sedation, pet her, talked to her, and comforted not only us, but Rosy too. Rosy was my baby, and seeing how much genuine love and care Dr. Sarah had for her was incredibly heartwarming. You can truly see and feel how deeply she loves animals. She gave us all the time in the world to say goodbye and allowed me to make every decision about the next steps when I was ready. She made an unbearable moment just a little bit easier, and for that, I will never be able to thank her enough. Without me even needing to say the words, she understood when I was ready to say goodbye to my baby forever and comforted me through the hardest moment of my life. I am so thankful that she was the one there during Rosy’s final moments. She will forever have a special place in all our hearts for the work she does and the kindness she showed Rosy and us. She allowed us to carry my baby into the box and out to the car ourselves. The next morning, I decided I wanted to do a witness cremation. I immediately texted Dr. Sarah and received a reply within minutes. She personally helped place a hold on Rosy and even called and emailed the crematorium herself to ensure everything would be arranged. I was drowning in grief, yet she took that burden into her own hands and helped make it possible for me to see Rosy one last time before cremation. Because of Dr. Sarah, I was able to create more keepsakes and have a witness cremation a few days later. I truly cannot find the words to express how much that meant to me. Thank you, Dr. Sarah, from the bottom of my heart for treating Rosy and us with so much love and kindness. 🤍
Dr. Wratten is very compassionate and took the time to explain everything during the process. She definitely helped make the experience a little easier. I highly recommend Dr. Wratten.
