Dr. Lutri was amazing and wonderful through this difficult process. I don’t know what I would have done if I had to have taken Ellie in and move her. My sweet furry bestie was comfortable on the place she always felt secure. We were all by her side and she went “to sleep” so peacefully. Dr. Lutri was thoughtful and so caring. I would highly recommend her.
5.0Feb 26 2026 by Jennifer P. While grieving the loss of Liberty, my 14 year old lab/Weimaraner, I never expected to be so grateful to Dr. Lauren Silvesti, from CodaPet, for making Liberty's final moments so serene and peaceful. It was as if Dr. Lauren was part of the family, and she knew that my emotions were starting to swell. After first greeting Liberty, she made sure I knew exactly what she was going to do, and that Liberty would fall asleep almost immediately. At that point, I expected tear up right away, but I didn't. Dr. Lauren bestowed more of a peaceful atmosphere, as we talked about what a great life Liberty had. What I had been dreading for days, actually left me with a calming sense of relief as Liberty and I said our goodbyes. I honestly believe Dr. Lauren always knew, in advance, how she was going to leave me with beautiful memories of this day, and she definitely did.

5.0Apr 05 2026 by Lisa G. We said goodbye to our 14 yo Old English Bulldog today. Having Dr. Hundley come to our house was by far the best experience we could have asked for in a situation like this. She was so compassionate and empathetic and Our big boy got to go relaxed in his home with his brother on his favorite dog bed.

There are no words that fully capture the gratitude I feel for Dr. Daniela Lutri. During the most heartbreaking moment of my life, she showed up with an incredible amount of compassion, patience, and gentleness. She treated my sweet Harley with such dignity and respect, and she treated me with kindness when I was completely broken.
Dr. Lutri took the time to explain everything, never rushed a single step, and made sure Harley was comfortable, peaceful, and surrounded by love. The calm presence she brought into my home made an unbearable situation feel just a little more humane and a little less terrifying.
Saying goodbye to a soul dog is devastating, but knowing Harley passed quietly, pain-free, and in my arms is something I will forever be grateful for. Dr. Lutri gave us the gift of a peaceful goodbye, and that is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
I cannot recommend her enough to anyone facing this impossible decision. She truly does this work from the heart.
5.0Jan 19 2026 by Camille C. We are very grateful for the love and support from Dr. Lutri when she came to visit us for our beloved Kona. She was amazing, very sentimental and caring about our loss and made this day alittle more bearable by her kindness and calmness about the entire situation. Thank you for being there for our family! We appreciate it!
5.0Jan 25 2026 by Lorraine D. Dr. Lutri was incredibly kind, patient, and did all the right things to make our last minutes with our dear friend as peaceful and painless as possible. I am grateful we were able to say goodbye at home and I am grateful Dr. Lutri was the one to help us. She has a kind heart.

Dr. Kyra came to the house earlier than our scheduled appointment in order to ease the suffering of our 11-year old boy. She was very quiet and calm and it was such a blessing. If you have the need to do so, I hope you can offer your animal the same kind treatment that Dr. Kyra provided. Thank you so much.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Eileene Schlichting My baby went across the rainbow bridge. Peacefully she departed with Daniela by my side.
This has been the second most heartbreaking moment in my life. Daniela saw me at my worst, crying, unable to speak and somber. She had such care and compassion. I don’t think anyone else would’ve been able to help me the way she did. I would only work with Daniela if I had to go through this again. Please see my feedback as authentic. I usually don’t talk about my experiences. But Daniela aiding us through this tough time really resonated with me.
5.0May 22 2026 by Monique Z. Dr Laura was very kind and compassionate as we said goodbye to our beloved German Shepherd Sasha. Easy to book and she explained the entire process. Sasha went to sleep peacefully in her own bed at home.
5.0Jun 10 2026 by C Yerkes The utmost thanks to Dr Laura Alala for making our difficult time much easier in the end. Our Cat, Apollo, was beginning to suffer so much in his last days of fighting kidney disease which caused him to completely stop eating. I was with him all night and day watching him suffer and wasn’t sure he was even going to make it to his euthanizing appointment! I just wanted him to be able to rest in peace as soon as possible! I contacted to her and asked if there was any way to come early and she said “Yes, I will see what I can do”. She was able to change her schedule and come a whole 2 hours early. She put our dear family member and good buddy of 16 years to rest with respect, compassion and understanding. I liked how she took him away with him looking as if he was sleeping in a comfortable bed snuggled up in comfy blankets. So glad we had her come out!
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Tom Edwards Dr. Daniela Lutri was amazing. This was a really hard time for my family and she was very compassionate. She answered any questions thoroughly and described the process step by step. I would highly recommend Dr. Lutri to anyone who is struggling the process.
5.0Nov 12 2025 by Jonathan M. Dr. Lutri was very patient and caring with our 16 year old dog. She showed great compassion and took time to explain the process. Highly recommend her!
5.0Jan 26 2026 by Gary C. Dr. Lori Thomas was a godsend.
We had to make the gut-wrenching decision to say goodbye to our 15-year-old Zöegirl, and we are so grateful that Dr. Thomas was there to guide us through it.
The experience was cozy, peaceful, and filled with so much empathy and love. She texted ahead of time to see if we had any questions or wanted to talk before the visit, and on the day of, she let us know when she was on her way.
When she arrived, she greeted us like family. She took her time getting to know Zöe and made us feel comfortable with the hardest choice we’ve ever had to make. It was especially difficult because Zöe had sundowners, and during the day she could still seem so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. But she had walked into the pool several times, was running into walls, losing her balance, and losing her way. As hard as it was, we knew it was best not to wait for a middle-of-the-night emergency or have to say goodbye in a stressful vet room instead of in the comfort of her own home.
Dr. Thomas explained every step of the process and made sure we were ready and comfortable. She handled our girl with such care and love, even driving her off as her “copilot” in a basket in the passenger seat.
We truly could not have been blessed with a better end-of-life experience or a more compassionate doctor. We are forever grateful.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Teresa Riccardi On one of the worst days of my life, Dr. Lutri gave me the gift of peace. I didn't know what to expect with an in home euthanasia, but I can say that from the moment she contacted me after I made the appointment, she was nothing but kind and reassuring. She comforted me, gave me all the time I needed, and most importantly, was sweet and kind to my baby Cleo all the way through the process. If I ever have to make this decision again, there is no doubt that I will contact Daniela.
5.0Apr 16 2026 by Tatiana I. When it was time to cross our beloved fur baby over, we used CodaPet. We have used another at-home pet euthanasia company, but our last experience with them was very unpleasant.
Dr. Daniela Lutri came to our home and assisted our fur baby to cross over. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Lutri for the extraordinary compassion and care she provided during a difficult moment in our lives. Saying goodbye to our beloved fur baby was heartbreaking, but Dr. Lutri’s presence brought a sense of peace and dignity to the experience that we will never forget.
From the moment she arrived, Dr. Lutri was kind, gentle, and incredibly patient. She took the time to ask us about our fur baby, and our fur baby’s health issues. As she became acquainted with our fur baby, she pointed out some other health issues that were obvious to her. Hearing Dr. Lutri share them with us validated that we were making the right decision.
Dr. Lutri explained everything to us with tenderness and respect, allowing us to move at our own pace. Her calm and compassionate demeanor created a safe space for our family to grieve and say goodbye.
The way Dr. Lutri guided our baby through her final moments was nothing short of beautiful. It was peaceful, serene, and filled with love—exactly what we had hoped for. Knowing our fur baby passed in the comfort of her home, surrounded by love and without fear, has brought us immense comfort in our grief.
Dr. Lutri is truly a gift to families navigating the loss of a cherished companion. Her work is more than a service—it’s a calling, and we are forever thankful for her grace and empathy.
5.0Nov 13 2025 by Kelly J. I really can't say enough about Dr. Daniela. We had a shock one day as our dog, who had been quite well, suddenly developed a pericardial effusion. Long story short, he didn't have more than about 24 hours to live. We called Dr. Daniela as she was wonderful with our daughters dog. I called her at night and was surprised to find she was able to come over the same night. Our dog being able to pass in the comfort of a favorite spot made us feel better for him. Dr Daniela has so much kindness, and compassion. She truly made this very difficult time a bit easier with her comforting words, understanding and gentle handling of our dog Bowie. She is truly a one of a kind wonderful person
5.0Feb 19 2026 by Linda P. After having to go through this experience twice before, we opted for in-home euthanasia. Dr. Rona was considerate, compassionate, and very professional. She showed up early, answered all our questions, and gave us plenty of time to say goodbye. She made the experience easier and left us knowing we made the right choice. Highly recommend Dr. Rona.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Mike Cinko Having to say goodbye to a beloved pet is very hard. CodaPet made it less difficult by coming to our house, so our poor cat with congestive heart failure could pass in comfort. Dr. Laura was kind, understanding, and supportive through the entire experience. I highly recommend this at-home service when this sad time arrives for your fur babies.
5.0Jun 12 2026 by Michael Frantz I couldn't have had a more, perfect, understanding, vet to handle the process of Chance's transition. Dr. Phillips was amazing and helped me to feel at ease during the whole process. She even brought him a stuffed animal so that he didn't have to travel alone.
Thank you so much during this difficult time.
5.0Jun 13 2026 by Janet Capri CodaPet has helped me find at-home euthanasia services for two of my pets. Their website is so easy to use and the doctor's that we were connected with were absolutely wonderful on both occasions. They were so compassionate and kind. CodaPet is slightly more expensive but I needed urgent services in both cases and they were able to quickly connect me with help. I am so grateful for this service.
5.0Jun 12 2026 by Amanda Abell Dr. Dover made my wife and I feel at ease instantly. She explained the process thoroughly and was very sweet to our dog. She made a difficult experience easier with her kindness and professionalism. Thank you!
5.0Jun 12 2026 by joshuataborartworks We will always be grateful to Dr. Daniela Lutri for the kindness and compassion she showed us when we had to say goodbye to our dog, Daisy. It was one of the hardest moments of our lives, and she handled it with so much care and gentleness.
She spoke to us like real people, took her time, and treated Daisy with so much love and respect. Nothing felt rushed or clinical—just calm, patient, and incredibly thoughtful. In a moment when our hearts were breaking, her presence truly mattered.
Losing Daisy was devastating, but knowing she passed peacefully and with dignity brings us comfort. We are deeply thankful. 🐾💔
5.0Feb 08 2026 by Katherine H. Dr. Daniela Lutri made this painful process so much easier. The minute we met her it was like we had known her for years. She is so compassionate and friendly. She gave us a big hug as soon as she walked in. We had to put down a sister and a brother 8 days apart. It was devasting but, Daniel was so comforting. She reassured us they would be out of pain and happier. Both had stopped eating and were crying from pain from their illness. She rearranged her schedule just so she could come back for our other dog 8 days after the first one. She even hand delivered both cedar boxes of ashes together. We absolutely love Daniela and she made the painful experience much bearable.
5.0Dec 12 2025 by Lisa T. On May 14, 2026 Dr. Dykstra arrived at our home at 9 am sharp after a hard night and decision to let our sweet and suffering Molly (13.5 yr old Cavalier) leave this life with us. Dr. Dykstra made the decision and process very comfortable and reassuring. Molly immediately took to her and accepted her love and attention. Such a gift of God to have it end this way with a loving expert! God bless you Dr. Dykstra. Eddie and Lisa Bridgers
5.0Jun 10 2026 by Eddie Bridgers Dr. Daniela is an angel. I wasn’t sure what to expect going through the in-home euthanasia process and Dr. Daniela was kind enough to answer questions.
I was able to give my beloved Scooby some of his favorites: cream cheese, whipped cream, and as we began: his absolute favorite: cheeseburgers.
Dr. Daniela explained each step as we went along and it helped calm me, which helped keep Scooby calm.
I will be forever grateful to Dr. Daniela for helping me give Scooby the opportunity to transition with dignity in the comfort of his home.
I had Scooby for nearly 12 years, the ultimate best friend, he helped me through illness, the loss of my father. I rescued him from a high-kill shelter, but really, he rescued me.
I am forever grateful that I was able to be with Scooby as he transitioned and became my guardian angel.❤️
5.0Apr 06 2026 by Brenda B. Haven’t been able to talk about my Oliver. He left me way too soon. He was part of my soul and Dr Daniela knew that. She helped him cross over with all the love and respect he deserved. She helped me grieve and I am so grateful to her. She is gentle, sweet and caring.
5.0Dec 09 2025 by Vivian F. I always promised my Bailey a peaceful and pain was ending, and that's exactly what happened thanks to Dr. Daniela.
Dr. Daniela did something completely different from anything I had experienced with my other pets, and it brought me an incredible amount of comfort during one of the hardest moments of my life.
In the past, my pets were given an IV in their leg before any pain medication or sedation. It was upsetting to watch because they were uncomfortable, fighting the process, and clearly stressed. With Dr. Daniela, my cat never even flinched.
She used a gentle three step process that allowed my cat to peacefully cross the Rainbow Bridge in my arms without fear, pain, or the discomfort of needles and IV placement.
First, she used a tiny needle to give him an opioid and pain medication in the scruff area. The needle was so small he did not even notice it. She then waited about 10 minutes, and during that time he was completely relaxed, comfortable, pain free, and calm.
Next, when I was ready, she gave him a sedative with another very small needle in his back leg. Because he was already relaxed and on opioids, he did not react at all! Then, when I was ready, she administered the final medication.
The entire process felt gentle, calm, and compassionate. Dr. Daniela explained every step with kindness and empathy, which helped me tremendously through my grief.
I am completely at peace with how everything happened. Knowing my cat passed away feeling safe, comfortable, and loved in my arms gives me enormous comfort. After experiencing this level of care, I would never choose any other approach for my pets in the future.
At end, Dr. Daniela brought out a really comfy pet bed lined with fluffy blankets to take my fur baby away. That made me feel even better about the entire situation knowing his last trip was exactly how he would have loved it to be.
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Angella R. Dr. Daniela Lutri was very kind, warm and patient with us and our beloved cat. She helped us understand what our cat was going through and eased our guilt with scheduling her euthenasia. We didn't feel rushed either. Given the circumstances, it was a good experience.
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Cindy G. Dr. April Le Blanc who offers in-home pet euthanasia gave me the compassion and support I needed for my decision to euthanize my beloved pet cat Julius. She gave me the support I needed for my decision and guided me thru this difficult situation. The process itself was made easier and Julius was well taken care of with a peaceful process.
I would not hesitate to recommend CodaPet to anyone facing the decision to have in-home pet euthanasia.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Helen Roiz We, unfortunately, recently utilized this service and I have nothing but amazing things to say about the process and Dr. Amy DeWitt. She was very sweet and made us feel at ease. The privacy and comfort of being home was worth any amount of money. In reference to money, the price was very reasonable and this will be the only way I ever do this if the situation were to arise again.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Jenn Monohan Dr. Lutri deserves a 10 out of 10! She was very caring, compassionate and highly skilled. Our dog did not suffer and the all the meds worked well and she passed away peacefully in good hands! Would 100% recommend Dr. Lutri to friends and family!! 🐕
5.0Oct 24 2025 by Allan C. Dr. Bean is absolutely the most kind hearted soul. I am so grateful that was able to help King Buddy for the last time. He was King Buddy’s vet for many years and always took great care of him. To have him come to our home was a blessing. King Buddy was put to rest while laying in his favorite sunbathing spot in the driveway with his human pack surrounding him. Thank you to Codapet, Dr. Bean and Brooke. King Buddy had a great life and a beautiful ending.
5.0Jun 11 2026 by Dawn King Dr whala was exceptionally professional and kind. First time I had ever have to euthanize a pet at home vs. the vet hospital. This was way better for my pet and me. No stress for my dog and a peaceful departure. He looked comfy and was totally relaxed and not nervous. We were able to say good bye with dignity and a way better than the hospital. I will always do this for my pets this way in the future. It’s worth it and it was kind.

There are not enough stars to adequately express our gratitude for Dr. Carolyn Benedetto and the compassionate care she provided during one of the hardest moments our family has ever faced.
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is heartbreaking, but Dr. Benedetto made an incredibly difficult experience peaceful, dignified, and filled with love. From the moment she arrived, her calm presence and genuine compassion put both our family and our sweet companion at ease. She took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of our questions with patience, and never once made us feel rushed.
Being able to say goodbye in the comfort of our home, surrounded by familiar sights, sounds, and the people who loved our pet most, was an immeasurable gift. Dr. Benedetto treated our pet with such tenderness and respect that it was clear this is not simply her profession—it is truly her calling.
What could have been a traumatic experience became a beautiful and peaceful farewell. We were given the time and space we needed to share our final moments together, and for that we will be forever grateful.
If you are facing the impossible decision of saying goodbye to a beloved pet, I cannot recommend Dr. Carolyn Benedetto and CodaPet highly enough. Her kindness, empathy, and professionalism are extraordinary. She helped our cherished family member pass with dignity, comfort, and love, and that is a gift we will never forget.
Thank you, Dr. Benedetto, for helping us honor our pet’s life in the most compassionate way possible. You made all the difference. ❤️

5.0May 15 2026 by Laura C. Can’t express my gratitude enough for coda pet and Dr. Kristen Stukey. Although the grief is so overwhelmed to have my sweet girl be able to pass peacefully in the comfort of our home means everything to us
5.0Jun 13 2026 by Carly Guillote She explained every step and told us what to expect. Communicating with her was easy and she was in contact with us for her arrival time and was personable. We felt comfortable with her and she was kind enough to let me know when my Wolfie’s ashes arrived and she delivered him personally to our home. Thank you for making this difficult time easier.
5.0Feb 16 2026 by Jennifer G. Dr Laura Smith was the best of the best when she came to our home to help Barney go to the Rainbow Bridge. I highly recommend her and this company.
5.0Jun 10 2026 by Bo Duke We unfortunately had to make the decision to help our baby cross the rainbow bridge, and I cannot express enough how much easier it was to be able to do it in our home, where our baby was comfortable. Dr Randolph was so extremely kind. He asked questions and got to know our baby, he let our kids have the chance to share their memories, and be apart of the whole process. Nothing makes this decision any easier, but it helps having a considerate vet to walk you through the process and show real compassion to our babies at the end of their life.
