Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

One reason I became a veterinarian was to serve the bond between people and their pets. Saying goodbye to a longtime friend is one of the most difficult passages we face. Being able to say goodbye peacefully at home, in a familiar environment, can eliminate some of the stresses of the process for both people and pets.

What pet parents are saying

Doctor Taylor was incredible during a really difficult time. He took time to explain the process, listened to our stories about our cat, empathized, and made sure we were all comfortable. He gave us a gift that was priceless- and that was peace.

Dan Taylor, the vet we found through CodaPet, could not have been better to guide us through the loss of our deeply-loved dog, Amelia. He was so kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable that it made the process as natural as it could possibly be. My partner’s son shared that he felt like Dr. Taylor was so spiritual it felt like he was a “priest”. Thank you, Dr. Taylor, for providing us with the guidance and space to say goodbye to Amelia. The memory will be one we cherish and revisit along with all the joyful ones we have of our best friend.

I think I just did this. But I couldn't get out of this site when I finished. If my review didn't go through, let me know and I will do it again.

Review by Dr. Dan Taylor

He was extremely kind and supportive through the process of putting our sweet dog down. He walked us through everything, made us feel very comfortable, and gave us all of the time we needed. It was a heartbreaking moment but he made it the best it could be. We can’t thank him enough for the kindness he showed us during this time.

Review by Dr. Dan Taylor

Dr. Dan Taylor was wonderful with our in home pet euthanasia experience. He was warm, spoke softly around our cat and us, gave us all the time we needed through each step of the process, and spoke words of comfort and encouragement at a time we really needed to hear it. It is always a difficult decision for pet owners, but I will definitely look him up when the time comes that we need to make this decision again. Thank you Dan for being so wonderful.
