She is the most compassionate, caring,and calm provider. I was extremely emotional and she made this difficult situation so much easier to bear. Her gentle demeanor and professionalism made for a peaceful and pain free transition for our beloved pup.

Dr. Schott was really courteous and adaptable to how we wanted to say goodbye to our cat. Wonton loved being outside and so we took her out in the yard and let her roam, enjoy the sunshine and have some fresh catnip. It was really peaceful and Dr. Schott gave us the time we needed with her. Definitely recommend having in home, when it’s time for our other cat, we’ll go with them again.

We had Dr. Gary Hsia come to our house to let our 13 year old Lab Colby go to dog heaven. He was focused on making sure Colby was super comfortable. He was so compassionate to our family, Colby and our other dog. Dr. Gary was a 10 out of 10 - highly recommend Dr Gary and the home euthanasia experience.

Jason came and was very professional and empathetic of our family loss. Mason passed after 17 years with us. He was the best German shepherd we could have had. A real part of the family. Jason came in and handled us and Mason with empathy, compassion and a genuine respect for Mason and our family. He thoroughly explained the process, answered any questions and was very comforting toward us and mason. We were able to participate in the procedure as we were comfortable doing. He did not rush us while we said our final goodbye’s. I could not have asked for a better end for Mason and the comfort Jason provided in this situation. After everything was done and paid for, Jason continued to reach out with updates concerning Mason’s remains and his follow-up in seeing to it that we received the ashes and other personal memorabilia. He personally returned to deliver the remains and memorabilia on our schedule. I could not have made a better choice of provider for his services and his pricing was clearly explained and lower than other providers I had contacted.

Dr. Loughmiller was very sweet and kind. I was visibly heartbroken over my cat of 16 yrs being diagnosed with cancer. Having to watch him wither away and go from his normal self to literally dying was more than I could bear. I knew I couldn't let him suffer and wanted an in-home, more personal goodbye for him. I want to say thank you so much to Dr. Loughmiller and Coda Pet. I would def recommend them. My heart broke once again, and the tears fell, but in a good way, when I received the heartfelt card and token in Max's honor. I will cherish it forever. Thank you! Thank you!! Max's family, Dave, Brenda, Devin, Dylan, David
