Dr Kellie Ayle was absolutely AMAZING. She has a quiet, calm spirit that made the experience so much less painful than it could have been. The process was as simple as it could have been. To be able to go through this in our own home made a huge difference in how we will remember our dog.
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Denver Renfro 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. 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. 🐾💔

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. 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. Although it was a tremendously difficult decision to make, Dr. Diana Phillips made it a wonderful experience. I have had to euthanize many pets, always taking them to a veterinarian clinic, but this was my first experience with in home euthanasia. When Dr. Diana arrived at my home she came in and sat down on the floor with me and Forrest. We went over his history and she made me feel more at peace with my decision. As he laid in his bed, chewing on his bone, he had no idea what was about to happen as she started administrating injections. Before long and he was snoring and then peacefully passed, in his own home, on his own bed. We let his brother and sister come in to say goodbye and then he was removed from the home. I will never do this any other way. The next time I have to make this decision, I will not hesitate to give her a call. She made the day 100% better. Thank you so much Dr. Diana.
5.0Jun 03 2026 by Vicki Westbury 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. Losing a pet is very difficult. Having the ability to have it done at home in a non stressful way made it as good as it could be. Dr. Kyra Heirich was incredibly compassionate and kind with our whole family and fully explained the process to my children - which I think helped them understand and process their grief. I so appreciate that she offers home care and would highly suggest her to anyone going through this difficult process.
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Rachel Appelblatt Dr Banks was so kind and considerate when we had our Boxer Bonnie euthanized. Bonnie had lymphoma and her tumors stopped responding to treatment so it was a terrible decision but Dr Banks was patient and so loving towards her. She responded right away once we contacted her and I can’t stress enough how comfortable she made us all and the care she took to make sure Bonnie’s last moments were as comfortable as possible. I would highly recommend her if you need to make that decision for your own pet.
5.0Jun 05 2026 by Wendy Pohl This platform was incredibly easy to use during a difficult time. It was fast to navigate, had clear and easy instructions on how the visit would proceed, and had appointments available on short notice. Payment options were also not intrusive in a time of grief. Dr. Dover was so kind and helpful and communicative throughout the process.
My good friends and I are so grateful to and for Dr. Josh Williams. Here is why.. He called me the previous day with information about what would happen before, during and after. This helped take away my worries. All in all it turned out to be a celebration of my Gracie Kitty’s long life. The knowledge and caring and compassion that Dr. Williams brought made all the difference to me. I have the comfort that I did the right thing by and for my precious little one. sending you my deepest appreciation. Thank you Dr. josh!
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Linda Spratt When we needed caring help, we found it here with Sarah Wratten and Solace veterinarian care, of Orlando, FL. Our Daisy was desperately ill, and left the world peacefully and pain-free.
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Suzanne Pike My husband and I were so grateful for the kindness and compassion shown during one of the hardest days we've faced. Having our beloved cat Chaussettes peacefully cared for at home made an incredibly difficult goodbye much more gentle and comforting. Dr. April was patient, respectful, and truly caring throughout the entire process. She answered all our questions and let us proceed at our own pace. We couldn't have asked for a more compassionate experience, and we will always be thankful for the dignity and peace she provided for our sweet furbaby. ❤️
5.0Jun 03 2026 by Misti Walty 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.
5.0Mar 15 2026 by Jordan D. 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. Our almost 17 year old baby-Maxwell was struggling. His mind and body was tired. It was the most difficult decision my husband and I had to make. We contacted CodaPet. Dr Mark Christine came to our home. With the utmost respect and care, Dr Mark gently assisted Maxwell pass on to his next journey. Allowing our beloved baby to pass at home as I held him in my arms surrounded with love and comfort of a familiar place was a blessing. I would highly recommend this service to others.
5.0Jun 03 2026 by Denise Lane 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. Dr. Sara Gardhouse did a great job on one of the hardest days of my life. She was calm, present and gave time. I was thankful I was able to do in home euthanasia so that my dog was in a familiar space in his last moments.
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Laura Gumke 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. 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. 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. I can’t put into words how this incredibly sad time could turn into a positive experience. Dr. Keri was amazing from the initial introduction to the last goodbye. Her presence brought a calm that I didn’t think was possible. Her empathy and love for a pet that she only just met was genuine. It was easy to see how much she loves all animals. All I can say is thank you to Dr. Keri and CodaPet for making this process as easy and professional as possible. Xo
5.0Jun 05 2026 by Karlye Hackenberg 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. Dr. Molina came to our home to euthanize our dog, and it was a very comforting experience for my wife and I, as well as our dog. After owing many dogs over a span of more than 50 years, we decided to have it done in our home, this time, instead of on a metal table in the sterile setting of a clinic. Dr. Molina was very gentle with our dog, taking the time to allow familiarization between her and our pet. The entire process was unhurried, with Dr. Molina displaying the kind of care and kindness as if it were her own pet. When our dog had passed, we felt sad, of course, but also relieved that she hadn't had to experience the anxiety of going to the Vet (she always knew, somehow) and would start trembling uncontrollably. Instead, in her own space, surrounded by her stuffed toys and familiar smells, she gently passed away. We highly recommend Dr. Molina for any type of veterinary service, because the care and compassion that she displays to animals and people, alike, is very impressive.
5.0Jun 04 2026 by Hank Unck I can’t express in words how much comfort it brought our family to say goodbye to our precious Sophie at home where she was the most comfortable. Dr. Goldberg was compassionate, respectful and empathetic to our family and Sophie. She made the process so peaceful for Sophie and us. She gave us the time we needed and was patient and kind. I would recommend Codapet and Dr. Goldberg to anyone who is facing this difficult decision. Saying goodbye to Sophie in our home and with such a kind person like Dr. Goldberg brought our family the comfort and peace we needed.
5.0Jun 03 2026 by Lynn Tribuiano We recently had the hardest decision to put our baby girl down and we used Coda Pet for the in home euthanasia service. We had Dave Leatherman as our in home vet and he was nothing but kind, respectful, and amazing.
He was so kind to our family, the other animals in our home, and most importantly our precious girl. He made sure she was comfortable throughout the whole process and also made sure we were comfortable with everything he was doing. He talked to us as long as we wanted and met all of our questions or emotions with the utmost patience, kindness, and respect.
Dave, you’re truly an angel.
If you have to go through this terrible process, this truly was most peaceful and beautiful way to do it. Would highly recommend for other pet parents in need of this option.
5.0Jun 03 2026 by Chandler Bockrath 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. I can’t express how grateful we are to Dr. Lori. She cared for our baby with such compassion, gentleness, and respect. Because of her, our baby was able to remain at home, surrounded by loved ones during such an important time.
Dr. Lori gave us all the time we needed, never making us feel rushed, and showed incredible patience and understanding throughout the entire process. Her kindness and professionalism meant the world to our family.
I highly recommend Dr Lori’s services and would not hesitate to use her again in the future.
5.0Jun 05 2026 by Lydia Modrzewski Dr. Lutri is very kind, understanding and a very knowledgeable vet… I really appreciated her kindness at this very difficult time for me and my pet.
5.0May 15 2026 by Laura C. 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. Dr. Wolfinbarger is truly incredible. She was so
kind and patient. She didn’t rush us and was so comforting through one of the hardest moments our family has had to endure. I feel truly blessed that she was our provider and I know that our beautiful girl left this world in the best possible way. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Dr Wolf!
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Shan Baker 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. Thank you for making my final moments with my girl as calm, loving, and supported as possible. I miss her every day and am so grateful I was able to give her a peaceful transition with your help. I higly recommend Dr. McCasland to anyone researching or thinking about this important decision, because she really cares and will treat this moment with dignity and care <3. All my love to the pet parents using this service in the future.
5.0Jun 02 2026 by Gwynnie B Hale We recently had to call on Coda Pet and Dr. Laura to find out about in-home pet euthanasia offered by their company. Our 20-yr old cat was experiencing blindness and some hearing loss. He had reached a point where he was bumping into walls and could not find his way around. It broke our heart to see him in this condition and we did not want to see him traumatized. Dr. Laura was incredible. I told her she was an angel sent by God. She came to our home for the procedure and was so gracious and gentle with Albert. She explained each procedure to us and allowed us to stay with him during the procedure. Albert was a skiddish cat and it was so reassuring to have this procedure at home. I would definitely recommend Coda Pet and Dr. Laura if you need this service.

5.0Jun 05 2026 by R. Mickle Dr. Magnotta was everything that we could have hoped for during such a heartbreaking time. She was kind, compassionate. She got to know our family in such a brief moment and touched our lives forever. It is never easy to say goodbye to your fur baby, but Dr. Magnotta made it as easy as humanly possible. We are forever grateful for her giving us the gift of saying goodbye with grace. Thank you Dr. Magnotta, you are truly a gift to this community.
5.0Jun 05 2026 by Susanne Carrier 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. Crawford did a WONDERFUL job for our beloved 13 year-old golden retriever, Meli. We discovered that she had terminal cancer at 6pm and didn't want her to suffer so were desperate to put her to sleep asap. It was such short notice that no one could accommodate us. But Dr. Crawford changed his schedule and came at 10:30am the next morning. He was kind, compassionate and made us and Meli comfortable. We will forever be grateful. Thank you Dr. Crawford.
5.0Jun 03 2026 by student3 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. Lutri was truly amazing! She was very compassionate and understanding of the situation and made a very difficult time a bit better.
5.0Apr 05 2026 by Lisa G. 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.
