Dr. Murray was kind, caring, professional. Having this done at home gave us a safe and peaceful environment for our Baby and Dr, Murray really help with that. Talked us through each step of the process as well asked question about Baby’s life giving us time to talk about how love she is and all she loves. At the time of letting our girl cross the rainbow bridge he stepped out to give us privacy for our goodbyes. Huge thank you to him for all he has done during this hard time.
Dr. Katie helped our family through one of the hardest moments we’ve had to face. When it was time to say goodbye to our beloved Zoe, she came to our home and helped her pass peacefully, surrounded by the people who loved her. What meant so much to us was the kindness and compassion Dr. Katie showed not only to Zoe, but to our entire family. She included our boys in the process, allowing them to help choose the baskets and giving them a way to be involved in saying goodbye. She never rushed us and made an incredibly difficult day feel peaceful, meaningful, and full of love. Losing Zoe was heartbreaking, but I am so grateful that Dr. Katie was the person who helped us through it. She gave Zoe the peaceful goodbye she deserved and gave our family a beautiful final memory with her. I will always be thankful that it was Dr. Katie who helped our sweet Zoe cross the Rainbow Bridge. I cannot recommend her enough to any family facing such a difficult goodbye.
I can't thank you enough for your professionalism and compassion. I don't think I could have made it through this process without you.
This is difficult to write because it is still so fresh in my mind. Last Saturday are beautiful black Labrador of 9 1/2 years took a turn for the worse. Being a Saturday I was having a hard time, reaching anyone but finally found CodaPet and Dr. Josh Williams. As painful as it is to lose a beloved family member, Dr. Williams made this experience about the most beautiful, compassionate, and caring that I could've ever imagined. I can't thank him enough for the time he took to explain everything to us and to help our beautiful girl be free from pain and to cross over that rainbow bridge. Dr. Williams is a truly exceptional person, the kindness and heartfelt compassion from him was beyond anything we expected. As painful as it is to let go of a loved one, your little furry, best friend, this was the most gentle peaceful experience. We got to say our goodbyes at home with loving family and friends. Thank you, Dr. Josh Williams!!!
Dr. Murray came to our home to assist in helping our very best boy Indy get relief from his pain and lay to rest. Dr. Murray was so kind so kind asking questions about Indy and what his personality is like, what his favorite toys and treats are, all while sitting on the floor with my family surrounding Indy. He gently explained the process of what was going to take place before and during Indy's final moment's. He even stepped out of the room for several minutes to give our family some time alone to cry and say goodbye.
Dr. Kim was very kind and understanding during such a hard time for our family. We cannot thank her enough for the service she provides and highly recommend to anyone that has to say goodbye to their beloved pet.
