Dr. Mumm went above and beyond to make sure my 19-year-old foster cat was as comfortable while she crossed the rainbow bridge. She really took the time to get to know us and our sweet Scout.
Dr. Dykstra was incredible through one of the worst processes of our lives. Our dog was really sick and quickly getting worse. She was able to come out with very little notice. She was very kind and thorough in explaining the process to us. She truly did everything she could to make this easier and better for us, knowing how hard it is.
Dr. Guerrero was amazing. She was very comforting during my final moments with my baby boy. She talked to me about it beforehand and gave me time alone with my boy. She made a very difficult day a little easier. She was kind and compassionate.
Dr. Bille allowed our beloved dog, Ginger, to pass peacefully and comfortably at home thanks to her in-home euthanasia service through Codapet. We are so grateful that this service was available to us!
We had two elderly cats at different times who had to reach their final moments. Dr. Murray came to both visits and was so patient and caring and really helped us in a hard time. He was very informative and let us go at our own pace. Having in house visit really helped because my parents' cats do not like vets or to be transported. Dr. Murray is fantastic. Thank you for what you do.
Our Maxie was 14 1/2 years old when he succumbed to cancer. His health declined quickly, almost over night and in home euthanasia was the best option; not what we wanted to do, we wanted him around but it was the most unselfish way to preserve his dignity. When Dr. Meadows arrived at our home, we asked if we could do it outside as that was was Maxie's favorite place to be. He was very patient through our pets and tears. He was very sensitive to our situation and precious with his handling of Maxie. Maxie had the sweetest disposition and wore his smile to the very end. Thank you Dr. Meadows/
Dr Hundley was so kind, compassionate, and skilled to both our dog Ranger and to our family. Dr Hundley was so compassionate with her text messages and phone call . She made a sad situation bearable. She had also worked with us four years ago for our dog Mia. I can't recommend hwr enough. As a human physician, we can all learn a great deal from our furry friend veterinarians. Thank you Dr. Hundley
Our sweet cat Paka became sick and went downhill fast; we knew we were looking at euthanizing her. Although we had discussed in-home euthanasia for our pets, we didn't think we'd have to make the decision so soon. Having Dr Anna come into our home was the best care we could give Paka (and us) when we had to say goodbye. Anna was extremely calm, compassionate, and patient. The experience was, obviously gut wrenching, but having Anna's support and expertise while keeping Paka comfortable at home alleviated some of our pain. Thank you SO much.
Dr. Krueger did a wonderful job. From the second she came in until she left she was a blessing. She was kind, loving, gentle, and very respectful our wishes. She help us transition our little girl with grace, dignity, and peace. We can’t thank her enough. -Brad and Sammy
This was by far worth the little bit extra to be able to keep my large lab at home for his last moments. He didn’t like the vets office and I didn’t want to put him through the stress. Dr. Clem was so nice and the experience bearable. She made me comfortable with my decision. When it’s time, call her. I got a next day appointment.
We were so blessed to have Dr Daniela Lutri come to our home to help us send our sweet darling kitty, Tarsi, across the rainbow bridge. Dr Lutri was so empathetic yet so professional, we knew we were in safe hands. We cannot thank this angel of mercy enough. Thank you!
Dr. Joey Durr is very kind, calm, patient, and compassionate. Being able to say goodbye to our sweet old girl in the home setting was very important to us, and to have such an understanding, caring vet help us with that meant so much. We never felt rushed by him during the process, and he gave us our space while we said our sad goodbyes . We also appreciate that the cost was more reasonable than the other in-home euthanasia vets in our area. For all of this, we thank you, Dr. Durr and Coda Pet.
Having never euthanized a pet before, I was wildly uncertain about my choice to do so with Ripley. Dr. Silberman talked me through the process beforehand, answered any questions I had, and was patient and gentle throughout. Ripley was as happy as I’ve ever seen her as we sent her off, she didn’t even register the needle that administered the sedative. She’s a big dog, and it took her a while to be fully sedated, but Dr. Silberman did not rush the process or display any impatience. I am so grateful that my first experience with this was with Dr. Silberman, and I can only hope that every pet I ever own can meet such a graceful and gentle end. I received a handwritten card from Dr. Silberman following the visit, which meant a great deal to me. The losses that I have experienced in my life have never been gentle. It was genuinely very healing to me to say goodbye in a fashion that was neither abrupt nor brutal, and I will never stop being grateful for the experience he provided me.
It was a tough decision to make but my baby was in pain and was only getting worse. I found Codapet online and read the reviews and decided to make an appointment so Hope could have the opportunity to pass at home. Dr. Karen took the time to make sure Hope was comfortable and relaxed. She gave us the time for us and our other pets to say goodbye. I definitely recommend this service if you want your pet to be able to pass peacefully in the comfort of their home.
Dr. Schmillen was excellent in our time of need. She provided the right level of care for our pet as well as us. Being able to have her come to our house to provide in home pet euthanasia provided a level of comfort for us.
In Home Pet Euthanasia by Dr. Swirble with CodaPet and her assistant Jose brought calm and reassurance when my dog Willie could go on no longer. They helped me get to the next phase and toughest part grieving. I highly recommend their service. It's especially helpful for people who live without cars and would rely on friends or family to make a vet visit. Thank you Dr. Swirble and Jose. I do highly recommend.
One of the hardest things ever is to let our beloved pets go. Dr. Loughmiller with CodaPet helped our Dougie cross that bridge. He was an amazing animal that despised everything veterinarian our hospital related. For just a regular yearly check up he was heavily sedated before going in. I'm talking a100 pound Labrador Redbone Coonhound mixed boy that doesn't his days running and his nights patrolling the property, 1200mg Gabapenton and 400mg Trazadone that still wouldn't knock him out. He had high anxiety for anything aside from home, car rides, and his humans. CodaPet came out, loved on him, made him comfortable and he was happy. His last moments were peaceful. He was surrounded by all of his people and his brother. He was content. No stress, no anxiety. And then, blessedly, no more pain. He was home and in his own space, with his own things and a new friend with his family. He was finally at peace. He didn't have to be on guard any longer. I can't thank CodaPet or Dr. Loughmiller enough for giving my big guy the peace and rest he so deserved. They have my gratitude and when the next petty needs help across that bridge, I will be making the same appointment for them. I hope it is many years from now, but I will trust in them again and again. Thank you Dr. Alex for helping our Dougie. For giving him peace. For giving him a release from the pain he tried to hide. For giving him the comfort he deserved.
Dr. Mumm was extraordinary! She was kind, empathetic, efficient and offered wonderful bits of wisdom that we’ll all remember for years to come. She made a difficult day the best it could be.
Dr. Thomas is absolutely wonderful. She is very compassionate, patient and kind. She took great care to ensure my dog, Honey, remained comfortable up to the end. She also gave Honey's brother, Otto, the attention he needed during this process. Her aftercare correspondence was also very comforting to me and my husband. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone going through this same experience.
Dr Divine was such the perfect person to guide us through one of the hardest things you have to do as a pet parent! She made us feel comfortable that we absolutely were making the right decision to assist our 12 year old baby Kya to the rainbow bridge. She was there every moment explaining what was happening. She made sure we had enough time to say out goodbyes before and after. It was so peaceful. I cannot thank her enough! I would with hesitation recommend her to anyone having to make this choice! Thank you Dr Christina!!❤️
Dr. Todd was amazing when she came to my place!! She listened to what I had to say n looked at the videos I had taken of my chichi. She watched her walking around and I asked her if I was doing the right thing and she assured me I was. Chichi was a 15 and a half year old chihuahua and I was having second thoughts even though I knew it was the right decision. She told me what she was going to do each step of the way and I never felt rushed with the process. When chichi’s health started getting worse, I knew I didn’t want her in a vets office. I wanted her to be comfortable at home and I’m so glad this service is available. It’s an amazing service for such a sad time for us pet parents. I would recommend this company to anybody!
Saying goodbye to Socks was heartbreaking, but Dr. Lori made a painful day as peaceful as possible. I cannot recommend CodaPet, Dr. Lori enough. From the beginning to the final goodbye, Dr. Lori was empathetic, patient, and explained every step clearly so we never felt rushed. Having him pass at home meant everything to us. Socks drifted off peacefully at “his” home. I could think of no more honorable, respectful and dignified way I would have wanted it. The thoughtful aftercare and paw print keepsake brought us so much comfort. Thank you for your kindness and gentleness.
Dr.Mattew Schaefer is a wonderful caring kind soul. He made me and my family feel peaceful with having to take this step with sending our Earl to heaven. He was so informative about everything that was going to happen or was happening with our Earl. He was so gentle with our Earl. He showed us compassion and kindness and live during the most difficult time of having to do this for our precious Earl. I would recommend Dr. Matthew Schaefer to anyone looking for someone to help with sending their precious fur baby to heaven. My family and I can not Thank him enough for his service of coming to our home to help our Earl take his journey to heaven. He has a huge heart and a wonderful soul that cared about me and my family and our precious Earl take. He was gentle with our Earl with everything he had to do. He just made this painful situation feel calming, peaceful, and helped us know that we were doing the right thing for our Earl. Thank you Dr. Mattew Schaefer you’re simply the best♥️
Dr. Matthew is so very compassionate. He takes the time to explain the process and walk you through every step. You can tell he really cares about you and your pet. I definitely recommend him.
The in home pet euthanasia with Dr. Dawn Fitzhugh was amazing. Dr. Dawn is the most sensitive, kind, empathetic human being we have ever met. Her compassion for us and our dear cat was exceptional. In the saddest time her handling of our crisis made us feel that it was the right decision and everything would be okay.
Words can not express how grateful we are to Dr. V for his compassion during such a heartbreaking time. Saying goodbye to our sweet dog was devastating, but having Dr. V come to our home made all the difference. He was extremely kind, gentle, and patient. He explained everything clearly, took his time, and never rushed us. Knowing our pup passed peacefully at home brought us immense comfort. I can not recommend Dr. V highly enough for compassionate end of life pet care.
This was one of the best decisions I have made not only for me but my pet too. Dr. Alley was so wonderful, compassionate and caring. I was able to get an appointment right away and it was so much nicer than being in a sterile vet office.
Dr. Jen was so compassionate and kind with my cat's passing. She was patient, validating, and allowed my other cat to be involved in saying goodbye. I am so grateful for her care and presence on one of the hardest days. I would highly recommend Dr. Jen if you are in need of a giving your cat a peaceful goodbye.
If the passing of your beloved pet can be 5 star, Dr. Karen ensured that for us. Her caring and kind demeanor, her patience and her communication were amazing and just what we were needing during this time. She made the passing of our pet as peaceful and beautiful as one could hope for. I would recommend her to anyone I know. Thank you Dr. Karen.
Dr.Bean was very caring loving and compassionate. He was a god send coming to my home to help our Coco from anymore suffering. I really loved that he said a prayer to help me feel at ease. What a blessing he was
Dr. Dennis is a gift for our region. She reached out within an hour of our booking our appointment for our precious dog and we had a phone call that evening. The day of our appointment Dr. Dennis was the perfect balance of informative and compassionate. She explained every step of the procedure and took the time to learn about our dog, both as she was and as she had been in better times. Her return of our dog's ashes was equally exceptional. I cannot recommend Dr. Dennis enough - she makes the worst day easier.
I just lost my best friend last week, and Dr. P was so supportive, empathic, kind, and gentle during this emotional situation. I got my dog's ashes back a week later as well. I highly recommended using this service when the time is near to your beloved pet, it was very stress free for my dog. My other dog was also allowed to be included with saying goodbye. Thank you again, Dr. P. You are truly amazing at what you do for others.
Dr. John Murray was amazing and such a comfort to us during the passing of our senior dog. He came to our home and was very gentle with our pup and talked to us through the whole process. I don’t ever want to have to use these services again but if I did I would want Dr. John Murray to be there. His services were a huge blessing to us during this time and he comes fully recommended. Very thankful for him!
It’s so hard to put your pet down, but I’m glad we were able to do it at home for both our dog earlier this year and now our cat. Dr. John Murray is very kind and made the experience both times as good as possible under the circumstances. For us and our pets, I think it was a more comfortable and peaceful experience than at the vet office.
"What a wonderful service. Dr. Kit Warren was so kind and compassionate, making everyone feel completely comfortable while we loved on our 14-year-old Lab, Maggie. I can't recommend them enough during such a difficult time."
It has taken several weeks to write this review, euthanasia is difficult to finally make the decision it’s time. Our Shepherd /Lab mix River, was almost 14yrs old when we said goodbye. Dr. Ann G. Is wonderful she explained what the next steps would be, gave us as much time as we needed to say our goodbyes.
Losing my honeybee was heartbreaking but Dr Megan was so kind to both our family and Gyspy. She was gentle, patient and very caring. She made the whole experience very peaceful and meaningful. I highly recommend in-home pet euthanasia with Codapet and Dr Megan. It's not an easy thing to do, of course, but it helps tremendously to have a loving professional at your side.
Dr. Karen goes above and beyond! She took such loving, gentle care of Mazie and went out of her way to make our whole family feel comfortable and informed every step of the way. Thank you, Dr. Karen, for your incredible dedication and heart!
Dr. Jordan Marotz was very kind, compassionate and understanding through the entire process. She was patient and addressed all my questions and concerns. Its never easy letting go of your fur baby, but she made the process so much easier. I appreciate everything she did and allowed me the time I needed to say goodbye to my sweet girl in my own home.
Dr. Jessica was wonderful. She explained everything before she was to do anything.. Highly recommend her for any one..I will also promote the business.. Thank you all very much !
Dr Christine was wonderful! I didnt know what to expect with in home pet euthanasia but Dr Christine called the day before to let me know what to expect and how he could help make Porter more comfortable. Whrn Dr Christine arrived he interacted with Porter and appeared to have ample time for us (I know he has a tight schedule). During the entire time Dr Christine was so kind to both me and Porter and spoke quiet words of comfort. I would highly recommend Dr Christine.
Dr. Christina was a source of strength & encouragement during this difficult time. She was communicative, reassuring, patient & gentle. I was able to hold my sweet little dog while she quietly “fell asleep”. Dr. Christine gave me one final sweet memory & I appreciate that so much.
We had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Hyman during this difficult time of at home euthanasia. It was everything we could have wished for our sweet boy. She was kind and warm and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye and I highly recommend her.
I am deeply grateful to Dr. Noe for giving me the gift of six more months with my beloved dog Daphne. Those extra months meant more to me than words can express. And when the time came, she gently helped my girl cross the Rainbow Bridge, allowing her to leave this world peacefully and without pain. Thank you, Dr. Noe, for your kindness, compassion, and for being there for us until the very end. I will always be grateful. ❤️
Dr. Josh was amazing and such a comfort to us during the passing of our senior dog. His services were unfortunately needed sooner than I had scheduled and he came to our home late after hours to send our dog on his way and make sure he wasn’t in any pain. He stayed with us after to make sure we were as okay as we could be with our circumstances and checked in with us during the following days. He was very gentle with our pup and talked us through the whole process. I don’t ever want to have to use these services again but if I did I would want Dr. Josh to be there. His services were a huge blessing to us during this time and he comes fully recommended. Very thankful for him!
I do not recommend CodaPet based on my experience with Dr. Rob Devlin and the deeply disappointing aftercare of my beloved pet. While the in-home euthanasia was handled appropriately, what followed were avoidable failures in transparency, communication, attention to detail, and accountability that compounded an already devastating loss. As my pet’s condition deteriorated, I sought an earlier appointment. Dr. Rob kindly offered to come that evening for an additional after-hours fee. During our text exchange, I specifically asked whether he would transport my pet to Agape Crematory afterward. He unequivocally replied, “yes.” At the appointment, he voluntarily offered to reduce the after-hours fee to $100, yet the invoice reflected $120. I appreciated his accommodation and the care provided during the euthanasia. Unfortunately, that compassion did not extend to my pet’s aftercare. Despite his assurance, I discovered through my own inquiries that my pet had not been delivered to Agape. Instead, she remained at Dr. Rob’s residence in a cooler, awaiting pickup several days later. This arrangement was never disclosed beforehand. Had I known, I would have transported her myself. More troubling than the delay was his response when I asked when my pet had been transported. Rather than answer directly, he stated that she had been entered into Agape’s system. Only after I shared what the crematory had told me did he explain where she was and why. Being entered into a system is not the same as being received by the crematory. Other arrangements were mishandled. I had explained that my priority was having my pet’s ashes contained in a bag so I could transfer them to my own urn. Dr. Rob recommended a scatter urn, said it should include a bag, and promised to check. He never followed up. I discovered myself that the urn did not include a bag and arranged an alternative with Agape. The crematory also lacked my delivery address and was told I might want a visitation, which I had never requested. These were not minor administrative inconveniences. They concerned my beloved companion’s remains at a time when care, accuracy, and proactive communication mattered enormously. Dr. Rob offered explanations and apologies, but his responses focused on what he had attempted rather than taking meaningful ownership of the failures. He promised an update that never came. I was left to investigate, correct arrangements, and advocate for my pet’s aftercare while grieving her loss. Thankfully, Ashley and Jesse at Agape Crematory Charlotte humanized the experience, provided the empathy and personal attention that had been missing. They called me, resolved the arrangements, and helped restore dignity to the experience. My pet’s cremation was expedited and Ashley personally returned my pet’s ashes. The contrast in compassion and accountability was striking. CodaPet sent an automated email encouraging me to “spread the word” about its services. Given what had happened, the timing felt profoundly insensitive. I replied with my concerns and forwarded my correspondence with Dr. Rob to CodaPet. I received no acknowledgment or response, raising further concerns about the company’s oversight and accountability. End-of-life veterinary care does not end when an animal takes its final breath. Aftercare is part of that responsibility, and the emotional labor it requires must not be underestimated. I did not expect perfection; I expected honesty, dignity, thoughtful communication, and follow-through. Instead, I became an investigator, coordinator, and quality-control manager when I should have been allowed to grieve. I share this so other families can make informed decisions. No grieving pet parent should have to endure preventable distress because compassionate care effectively ended with the euthanasia.
Dr. Angela was such a blessing. She was another sign that God does answer prayers. She took such wonderful care of our beloved dog Jack. She made the process so much easier and even though the whole situation is always so sad, without her it would have been just terrible. Thank you Dr. Angela. We will forever hold you in prayer so that you can continue to help others like you helped us. Sincerely, Cindy and Tim Parsons
Dr Megan was amazing. She went above and beyond and was so compassionate and was reassuring we were making the right choice for our sweet boy that was in kidney failure. She was on time for our in home euthanasia appointment and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience for helping our boy cross the rainbow bridge. We are very grateful and would absolutely chose this method again for future pets that need it.
Dr. Anna Stewart came out today to help our sweet 12 year old Giant Schnauzer peacefully cross over the rainbow bridge. She was so kind and compassionate and I would highly recommend this service.
Dr. Silvesti was an Angel for our family when we needed guidance and compassion the most. She dropped what she was doing and even spent extended time with us to make our young corgis passing comfortable for both him and us. Having a sense of control during such a painful time is worth every penny and I can’t thank Dr. Lauren enough for what she did for us.
Knowing when to say goodbye to my 16yo dog was an extremely difficult decision to make. Not only that, but I had no idea what to expect as this was my first in-home euthanasia. I could not imagine a better person to assist with this than Dr. Silberman. He has such a calm, peaceful presence. The goodbye was actually beautiful. Dr. Silberman was fully present with me, my son, and our dog. He moved at our pace and walked us through what to expect every step of the way. He was so gentle with my pup and his words of reassurance - that there is no such thing as premature for a 16yo dog - have stayed with me in the moments where I question my decision. He went above and beyond to ensure aftercare was handled how we would like. As sad as it is to say goodbye, this experience brought me so much peace and was truly perfect. I cannot recommend him and CodaPet enough for when the heartbreaking time comes. They will be my only call for future needs like this.
Dr Alice was so calm and kind when she came to our house to help our dog cross the rainbow bridge. She gave us time to be with him, explained everything and was very efficient and skilled at her job. We were thankful for her excellent guidance and support during a very emotional time.
We will be forever grateful for Dr Amy Lutgen DeWitt for coming to our home yesterday to help us say goodbye to our Buster boy. She made an incredibly painful time as peaceful and compassionate as possible.
Dr. Megan was extremely kind and respectful of Lady and our situation. She communicated well as we planned Lady's passing and even brought treats to keep her happy. I know being at home brought Lady more peace and I truly thank Dr. Megan for that.
We just used CodaPet (Dr. Phillips) for our almost 14 yr old dog, Curtis. Words cannot express how happy we are with this service. What a blessing it was for us and for him. Like most dogs, he was always anxious about going to the Vet. Needless to say, when the time came to say goodbye, that was the last place we wanted to take him. Curtis left this world at home, in his favorite bed, after enjoying a bowl of vanilla ice cream. Dr. Phillips was exceptional! She took her time and explained the process to us in great detail. She gave us space and all the time we needed. It was painless and peaceful. Our boy simply drifted off to sleep and for this we are eternally grateful. If you are facing this difficult decision, do not hesitate to use CodaPet.
Dr. Anne was a great resource for us on a terrible day of our lives. She was very compassionate and supportive. Everything went very smoothly and I'll always be grateful for the kindness she showed my dog at the end of her life.
Dr. Megan was so sweet, caring, professional, and sympathetic which helped make our final moments with our sweet boy as easy as it could be.
Brittany is beyond amazing. During one of my most difficult days she was kind, empathetic, and didn't make me feel rushed at all. Offered me and my family plenty of time to say goodbye. She made this terrible day a little less terrible. Shes just a very kind person and i don’t think theres too many people left in this world like her. The world’s a better place with her in it. 🫶
I would highly recommend Dr. Ballentine. She was so nice and generous and has a very calming presence. The whole process was very peaceful. She walked me through all the steps and only did things when I felt ready. She talked so lovingly to my cat, making sure my sweet girl was calm and comfortable before doing anything. I am so glad I was able to offer Fern this peaceful passing outdoors where she loved to be the most. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Dr. Morgan Russ helped us through the worst time. She helped my husband and me get final relief for Mr. Burns painlessly and calmly. I will never take any of my cats to my regular vet for euthanasia again. The stress is too much for pets (and the parents). This was peaceful and calm. Thank you Dr. Russ for coming to our house and helping us with this difficult decision.
Dr. Devlin was fantastic to work with! He has so much experience as a vet in general, and in particular, with this procedure. We have had to make these decisions before, but always had to do it in a vet’s office. This was a completely different experience and we are so grateful to have had this option to do it at home. Our girl Lucy (almost 15, Border Collie/Lab mix) was in the end stages of suffering from bone cancer. It would have very painful for her to make the trip to our vet. Dr. Devlin was kind and patient throughout the whole process and fully realized how difficult it is….the loss of a beloved family member. He explained exactly what would happen, what to expect, and answered all our questions thoroughly. His bedside manner is top notch. We highly recommend using CodaPet and Dr. Devlin. It made the whole situation so much better for both Lucy and our family.
Dr. Divine was prompt in responding to our request for assistance with euthanizing our cat on a Sunday. She was caring and professional and made the whole experience much better than if we had to take our cat to an office. She explained the procedure very well and offered reassurance and compassion. She answered our questions and showed genuine concern. She made the whole experience so much more bearable than we expected. Thank you, Dr. Divine, for helping our elderly cat go over the rainbow bridge in a quiet, loving, and peaceful way.
Dr. Whala, Your kindness and understanding during such a difficult time has been deeply appreciated. Having a loving doctor come to your home to ease a pets suffering, is an immeasurable gift and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I pray you have the opportunity to bring comfort to many, many more families throughout your career...I know you've brought comfort to ours. ❤️
We were so lucky to have DrKim attending the our sons needs. We think of our pets as family. As did she. Taking in our sarrow and feeling . Thank you so much. Brian & Smiley Windlinx for ELI
On September 22nd, our family had to say the hardest goodbye to our beloved 9-year-old dog, Champion, after his battle with lymphoma. In the midst of our deepest heartbreak, Dr. Matthew Schaeffer was an absolute blessing. From the moment he arrived, Dr. Schaeffer showed an incredible amount of sincerity, professionalism, and genuine heart. He allowed Champion to pass peacefully outside in the yard, exactly where he loved to be, surrounded by myself, my son, and my significant other. Dr. Schaeffer made what could have been a terrifying experience into a beautiful, gentle, and easy transition into death for our sweet boy. When it was time to leave, Dr. Schaeffer took Champion with him for cremation, treating his body with the utmost dignity, respect, and care. He truly cared for my baby as if he were his own. We are absolutely heartbroken and cry for Champion daily—a piece of our family is truly missing. But we are comforted knowing his final moments were filled with peace and love. Thank you, Dr. Schaeffer, from the absolute bottom of our hearts, for your compassion from start to finish. You are a remarkable veterinarian and a truly wonderful human being.
Dr. Murray was wonderful. Very kind, compassionate, and patient, listening to the stories of Maeby that we needed to tell. The actual process was smooth and peaceful, just what we wanted for our sweet girl.
Dr Whitman was gracious and kind. She did not rush the euthanasia process at. She explained the entire process to my husband who was unsure if we had made correct decision . We were able to get our Charlie who was a lab Bassett mix outside and it took place there under a tree on his favorite blanket.. Dr. Catherine cried right along with us . I would 100% recommend her and CODA PET to anyone in the same situation. Thank you again for the kindness!❤️
Dr. Jessica has a heart full of gold. When I had to say goodbye to my baby, she made the most heartbreaking situation warm, comforting, and full of love. It has been over 7 months and every day I am filled with sadness, but I am able to find some peace in knowing he had the best send off he could have❤️ Thank you Dr. Jessica
Dr Christina in Surprise, AZ was very professional and shared thoughtful advice and comments which greatly helped us afterwards deal with the loss of our Starlet - the dog we've had for nearly 16 years ever since we got married. Such a sad loss and we're so glad we chose Codapet and Dr Christina to make the process as good as it could be. Very appreciated.
Dr. Gersten was so caring in such a difficult time.. she explained everything and gave me all the final time I needed. As difficult as this was, she made it easier.
Dr. Evymarie Prado Sanchez was an incredible part of our sweet boy Cash’s final moments. After 13 years together, Cash was diagnosed with a cancerous stomach mass. Within a day, he was retaining a significant amount of fluid and struggling to walk. We reached out through CodaPet, and Dr. Prado Sanchez responded quickly, sharing her personal cell number so we could communicate directly about her availability, our questions, and our concerns. From the moment she arrived, she was compassionate, gentle, and kind. She gave us the time and space we needed, allowing us to move at our own pace as we said goodbye to our beloved boy. She made an incredibly heartbreaking night feel peaceful and filled with love. We found comfort in knowing Cash could take his final breaths at home, surrounded by the family who loved him so deeply. We are forever grateful to Dr. Prado Sanchez for the care and compassion she showed Cash and our family. Saying goodbye is never easy, but she helped us find peace in our decision and gave our sweet boy the gentle farewell he deserved. We cannot thank her enough.
Dawn is the sweetest and most patient vet I’ve ever dealt with! She explained everything, answered all our questions and didn’t rush us. She put all my concerns to rest. I highly recommend Dawn Fitzhugh!
I would recommend Dr. Laura Dubose at Coda Pet to anyone who is dealing with a pet who is suffering through their final days. One of the kindest things you can do for your pet is relieve their suffering. Dr. Laura will treat them with kindness, gentleness,and respect in giving them euthanasia to let them pass to their forever home. She came into our home and got familiar with Albert our cat before the procedure. The procedure just involved putting him to sleep gently and giving us time to be with him. She carried him out in a basket and she also took care of the burial according to our wishes. We felt like she gave both Albert and our family such a gift. I would definitely recommend Codapet and Dr. Laura to anyone who is looking for this service.-R.Mickle
Dr. Murray has the empathy that goes with such a hard part of his job. Loosing a fur-baby, no matter how young or old is heartbreaking. The vet that does this as their job is a very special type of person and Dr. Murray is. He talked with us quite awhile and explained what was going to happen, it didn’t make it any easier for us but eased our mind somewhat. Zeke will always be in our hearts, even though he took part of it with him. Thank you Dr. for making his journey a little easier. Zeke’s mom and dad, Joe and Nancy Filip
