Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Having provided end of life care to my own pets both in a hospital setting and at home with their family, I've experienced first hand the difference an at-home euthanasia makes to everyone involved. I am committed to helping pets and their families have as stress-free, dignified, and peaceful passing as possible.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Neri promptly arrived and called ahead of time to let us know she was on her way to our house. She was incredibly compassionate and professional. Our Roscoe even moved and laid on her soft fleece jacket without any objection from her. She was a true comfort in an incredibly difficult moment for me and my wife. I would recommend Dr. Neri without reservation for your loved pet and family.

Review by Dr. Kelly Neri

Dr. Kelly Neri was a wonderful, caring, compassionate vet who made our in-home pet euthanasia experience as peaceful as it could be. We loved that she gave Pikachu a Churu treat to lick and let him lick it quite a while before injecting the anesthesia. Dr. Neri knew that we'd had a bad experience with one pet who had the anesthesia admitted too quickly, making him flinch. She was careful to go slowly. Then he quietly lowered his head a bit until she injected more, and he fell asleep peacefully. She caused him no pain whatsoever, and he was receiving love and attention right to the end. When she administered the euthanasia drug he was already sleeping. We are very grateful to her for making this painful experience as good as it could be. I'm also grateful that she had several openings the day we called and we were able to schedule for that day at a time that was convenient for all of us. I'd definitely hire her again.

We had to contact CodaPet unexpectedly and were able to have Dr. Kelly Neri come to our house for in home pet euthanasia within 12 hours. Dr. Neri was lovely and made the process a little easier. Having our sweet kitty Astor be able to stay in a comfortable environment was priceless.

Our connection with Dr Neir was one of compassion and empty. Our initial contact was to address any questions we had as a family . When arriving to the house her first thoughts were for Naboo to make sure we kept her as come, relaxed reducing any anxiety knowing that there would be someone new in the house. Dr Neir first engaged with Naboo and said we could take a much time as needed for us and Naboo. This was very comforting for our family and wants to thank Dr Neri for keep such good care of Naboo in this time. Thank you for being kind and thinking of our family with the steps you took to make this a peaceful transfer. The Pecks

I am very thankful for Dr. Kelly and providing a service to come to my home for us and Daisy. She was extremely professional and warm as she helped guide us through the process and giving us the space to say goodbye.
