Dr. Delia could not have been more compassionate in her work with me and my dog. Her presence, gentleness and pacing all contributed to a peaceful process at this heartbreaking time. Would recommend her to anyone facing the same situation.

She was very kind, knowledgeable, and professional. As I’ve mentioned previously, given our dog’s special circumstances, her services were a godsend. I don’t know what we might have done without her.

Faced the difficult decision to euthanize our beloved 18 year old Papillon and used Codapet to do it in our home as our dog hated to go to the vet. Dr. Katie Todd arrived and explained in detail the process, gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes, and made the process as easy as possible. She was very reassuring to my children that we had made the right decision and explained all the options for taking care of the remains and provided us with keepsakes to ease the family’s pain. Thank you so much Dr.Todd in doing what has to be one of the world’s toughest jobs!

Having my pet euthanized due to a diagnosis of stage 4 lymphoma cancer at 7 years 11 months was something I wasn’t ready for. My dog was so young and taken away from me too soon. Dr. Fieg was the best. She was very thorough and explain explaining the entire process and gave me as much time as I needed to be with my dog until his demise. My dog went very peacefully and is no longer in pain. It was very comforting to me seeing the process and being there for my dog till the end. I did everything I could for my dog and the cancer was just too much for him. Although I miss him on a minute to minute basis, I know that he is in a better place now. I would highly recommend.Dr. Fieg if and when it comes time to make that decision that you never thought you had to make. Thank you Dr. Fieg for being so thorough and respectful to my dog and my wishes.

Words cannot describe how comforting and kind Dr. Becca and her assistant Morgan were during the process. However I will do my best. My family's situation with our family dog was difficult which led us to the deciding to let him rest. He had grown very old, sick, and was in poor condition. It was embarrassing. I explained the situation to Dr. Becca, asking to please do not judge us and our dogs state. Her communication and assurance that she held no judgement made the experience less painful. We were her last appointment during the night, but she and Morgan showed up with positive and compassionate energy. Holding such soothing demeanor, they conversed with us, explained each step, and kept strong composure as we grieved his last breath. They took him away with such consideration, it made my family and I feeling light knowing we did the right thing and that he is in good hands with them. Then their visit to bring our dog back to us was endearing as they brought flowers, a written card, his paw print, and his ashes. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Dr. Becca and Morgan! The experience would have been unbearable without you.
