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. Kelly Neri is truly one of a kind. She was incredibly gentle and compassionate in allowing us to say a beautiful goodbye to our wonderful pup Roscoe in Jan 2025, who let us know on his final day that he was ready for his next journey. Roscoe also loved Dr. Neri's fleece jacket, which is lied down on for comfort. We will always be grateful for her loving care.

Dr Neri was wonderful. She was a kind and calming presence during a very difficult time. It was a peaceful process at home and I’m so happy we did that vs going to the vets office .

Review by Dr. Kelly Neri

We used Dr. Neri in September 2024 for the first time when we had to say goodbye to our fur baby. She was wonderful to work with, empathetic and kind. When it came time to call someone for our other fur baby during the holidays, Dr. Neri happened to be the vet available again. I didn't expect her to remember us, but she did, and she was just as empathetic and kind as she was the first time. She walked us through the process, gave us time to cuddle our babies, and helped our fur babies feel comfortable, spoiled, and loved as they crossed the rainbow bridge. We are truly grateful to have had such a sweet spirit assist our babies with their final journey.

I'm so thankful for the service that CodaPet provides. Dr. Neri was gentle and empathetic. I'm grateful that I was able to give my nearly 15yo Paisley a peaceful passing in our home. Thank you, Dr Kelly Neri, I'm so appreciative of your kind heart!

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.

As painful as it was putting my Scotty down, it was so meaningful to have Dr Neri giving love, assurance and professionalism while we went through this most difficult time. She gave us time to say goodbye and never made us seemed rushed in anyway. I will forever be grateful that we used CodaPet.
