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
10/10, will absolutely call them for all our pets in the future. The booking process, handling of our pet's remains, and the kindness, compassion, and care shown by the company was so far beyond what I expected. Our 17yo kitty declined in health practically overnight. She was good, then all-of-the-sudden she wasn't. We wanted her to be as comfortable and surrounded by love as possible, so we looked up at-home options. I'll never do it any other way now. Our Doctor was Dr. Kelly Neri, and I can't sing her praises enough. She was very adaptive to our and our kitty's needs. She made her so comfortable and carried her out after in a beautiful little basket with care and dignity. She seemed to know exactly when we needed a moment to grieve, she didn't rush or pressure us with anything. And she got us a perfect little imprint of her paw. Our kitty crossed the bridge in her own bed and we didn't have to do the hellish drive from the vet's office after. Afterwards, Codapet contacted our vet, and they handled our kitty's remains, delivering her in a beautiful little urn directly to us. Dr. Neri even sent a very thoughtful card after. The cost was less than we had to pay for our dog a few years ago, and overall the experience was as not-terrible as it could have been. They never once asked for a review, and I almost never write reviews. But this company has been so amazing during this time and I want to assure any pet owners that are looking at options that this is an excellent one. I am so grateful for this organization and especially Dr. Neri. It'll never be an easy hit, but they really softened the blow.
Dr. Neri was so kind and compassionate during the loss of our sweet Lily. She made sure we understood every step of the process and made her passing so peaceful. Thank you for everything Dr. Neri
Dr. Neri was absolutely wonderful! From the moment she entered our home, we felt completely at ease. She was calm, quiet and very respectful of the situation. She answered our questions and concerns with compassion and kindness. It was a very emotional experience for us and she was very supportive. Making the decision concerning our sweet Gracie girl was very difficult, but I am confident it was the best decision. We appreciate Dr. Neri and would definitely recommend her!
one of the hardest decisions we ever had to make as a family was made so much easier with the love compassion and professionalism that was shown to us by Dr Neri. We are so grateful for her support. I would highly recommend Dr Neri to any family who finds themselves in a similar situation.
Dr. Kelly Neri provided excellent service for our pet cat Lily. She was compassionate, knowledgeable, and professional. Dr. Neri provided a relaxed atmosphere that comforted our family during this time of transistion and loss of Lily. We are grateful and pleased that we chose Dr. Neri.
I had to make the very difficult decision to put my sweet pup dog Ava to rest. She was diagnosed with a mammary tumor back in July 2024. I searched around for a local in home euthanasia and scheduled with Dr. Kelly Neri. I then canceled early that morning hoping I could have one last weekend. Unfortunately she wasn't able to keep any food or water down and I contacted Dr. Kelly late Friday near midnight. I'll forever be grateful to you for going out of your way late on a cold night to help Ava finally be at piece without suffering. Thank you again for you and your son being so kind and compassionate during one of my hardest days having to say goodbye.
