Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald is an angel on Earth. The time came to put down our 13 year old family dog. I wanted this to be done in the familiar comfort of our home. Dr Delia came to our house shortly after I reached out. She was kind and compassionate and made Mia’s transition calm, pain free and peaceful. She is an amazing human and is excellent at what she does. I am so grateful. Thank you so much Dr Delia.

Dr. Gordon performed the euthanasia for my sweet soul dog of 16 years. It was the most peaceful experience I could’ve asked for. She knew exactly what to say and created such a calm environment to spend our final moments together. I’m very grateful for her service.

We had to say goodbye to our pup Leo, who we had for 16 years, and it was one of the most painful things I ever had to do. Leo had advanced kidney disease and his health quickly deteriorated. We had scheduled a Coda Appointment with Dr. Derecka Alexander for a Tuesday, but Leo’s health took a turn for the worse on a Sunday. I emailed Coda Pet to ask if there was any possibility any Vet could come out sooner. Dr. Alexander immediately contacted me and made herself available in our time of need. We were so appreciative of Dr. Alexander’s compassion and kindness in helping our beloved pup Leo cross over the rainbow bridge, especially after it became urgent. She made a very difficult experience of us having to say goodbye to our pup more manageable. We chose to get a Vet to come to our home for our final goodbye to our Leo because we wanted him to be surrounded by the warmth of our love, the comfort of his family, and the smells and sounds he has always known. I wanted his last memories to be of us — his family — holding him, kissing him, thanking him. Thank you, Dr. Alexander, for allowing us to provide that to our pup Leo.

Dr Valentino came into our lives on a very difficult day. She was kind and compassionate, she reinforced that what we were doing was the right thing for our pet, which we really needed to hear. She gave us the time we needed. I felt she would look after our pet with dignity and kindness when she took her away. The whole process was calm and comforting. I am very grateful.

When Peaches, my dog met Dr. Carol Earls, she wagged her tail. My dogs, final moments were relaxed and Dr. Earls was respectful and caring.

We recently had to make the heartbreaking decision to put our sweet baby to sleep, and Dr. Megan Blasier Duvall was nothing short of amazing throughout the entire process. She was incredibly gentle, compassionate, and loving with our dog, treating them with the same care you’d give a member of your own family. Her kindness and understanding made one of the hardest moments of our lives a little more bearable. She spoke to us with patience, explained everything clearly, and gave us the time and space we needed. We are forever grateful for the comfort and dignity she provided our beloved pet in their final moments. I also want to mention how wonderful her entire office staff was. They followed up with us afterward and sent the sweetest handwritten card. It meant more than they know and brought us a lot of comfort during such a difficult time. That level of compassion is rare and deeply appreciated. Thank you, Dr. Megan Blasier Duvall, and your amazing team, for the love, empathy, and support you showed our baby and our family. We will never forget it. Reggie Provo and Jessica Bruce
