Verified Veterinarian
From a young age I have always felt a strong connection with animals. As I progressed in school, I was fascinated and excelled in biology and science, so choosing a career in veterinary medicine was a natural choice. I believe that every animal deserves compassionate care and I strive to provide the highest standard of care to all of my patients. After years of providing emergency care for pets in Memphis, I chose to extend my practice to include in-home euthanasia. Recognizing the emotional and sensitive nature of end-of-life decisions for pets, I wanted to offer a more comfortable and familiar environment for both the animals and their owners during this difficult time. By providing in-home euthanasia, I aim to create a peaceful and compassionate atmosphere, allowing pets to be surrounded by their loved ones in the comfort of their own homes. I believe that this personalized approach not only helps ease the emotional burden for pet owners but also ensures a more peaceful transition for the pet, allowing them to say goodbye in a calm and familiar setting.

Sr. Mays was very compassionate. She gave us time and checked with us from the first day we made the decision. We were allowed to make Straight comfortable and she was happy to answer any of our questions.
Dr. Mays was professional and compassionate. She explained everything as we went through the process and was kind and considerate to both my sweet Pascha and me. I would not hesitate to call for her help again. She’s the best.
Dr. Susannah Mays was heaven sent as she provided gentle, peaceful, compassionate, in-home euthanasia to our beloved dog, Abby. Our local vet supported Abby in having a good long life, but when we knew it was time to let her go, we wanted a peaceful, calm and loving exit for both Abby and our family. After much research and prayer, we decided on CodaPet. Abby was able to lay on my chest, peacefully sleeping, while Dr. Mays carefully and professionally put her to sleep. I wish I had known about in-home compassionate euthanasia with all our other dogs. It truly was a blessing to all of us to have found Dr. Mays. No fear or anxiety for Abby, and a calm, gentle end for us. It was technologically easy to schedule through the CodaPet website. Dr. Mays contacted me right away and offered comforting and encouraging words as she knew how difficult it would be to say goodbye to our beloved pet. Dr. Mays kept in touch and on the scheduled day, she arrived promptly and gently inquired about our life with Abby. Overall, Dr. Mays made one of the worst days a treasured memory knowing that Abby went out on her own terms. No words can express our gratitude.
Dr. Mays was so kind and caring with my Charlie. She took her time to explain everything and to make sure I was comfortable with what was happening and that Charlie’s passing was peaceful and painless. I couldn’t have asked for better care anywhere and the fact that she came to our home so I didn’t have to put the stress and pain of a car ride on my 18 year old baby meant the would to me.
Dr. Mays is compassionate & kind. I cannot recommend her highly enough for this service. At home service, while still very difficult, is calm and peacful. Dr. Mays only adds to that environment with her care and concern.
Dr. Mays was wonderful. She was sensitive and appreciated what we were going through. I even received a card from her later in the week. Although a difficult thing to decide codapet was easy to navigate. Ruth
