Dr. Cara was very understanding, knowledgeable and helped us say our hardest goodbye to our best friend đđ She explained everything before/during the process and was very patient with any questions we had. We are forever grateful for her and her service which allowed him to pass in peace and comfort of his own home â¤ď¸ Thank you!

Dr. Natalie is beyond amazing. She took the saddest day of our lives and made it special, complete with stories and laughter and just all-around conversation taking us out of the moment but always keeping us present in the reason she was there. My girl was 17 and worked from home with me and we were able to say our goodbyes in our office where she was at home and comfortable and safe and cherished. Thank you, Dr. Natalie for such a confusing experience LOL. Making a hard day easy is by no means an easy task but you accomplished it for us. Thank you



With a senior dog who had vision/hearing impairment and seemed to be easily stressed leaving the house I had been thinking about next steps, which came quicker than I had hoped. I inquired on Reddit for suggestions and came across Dr. Lewis details. Kudos to Dr. Lewis and the Codapet services for the ease in setting up an appointment online as I didn't think I'd be able to speak to someone on the phone. Dr. Lewis kept me informed of her arrival time and really took great care of Clyde and myself and walked me through the steps of the process. Her calm and gentleness made the transition easier and for this I will always be grateful. Clyde's ashes were returned to me and Dr. Lewis drove out to my home with his urn which was extremely thoughtful and kind. Thank you, Dr. Lewis and also to Codapet.



From the moment he came to our door, his calm compassionate nature shined through. His patience and tenderness put our normally excitable dogs at ease. He accessed Sasha and agreed that his quality of life would only get worse over time. His difficulty breathing would eventually affect his movement and balance. George held Sasha on his lap, Dr. Lane kneeled beside him and administered the medications. He went peacefully. Doctor Lane gave us time to say our goodbyes and answered all our last minute questions. It made a difficult decision a truly memorable one. Thank you.



Dr.Briell was a true Godsend! She was extremely professional, yet also extremely kind and compassionate. She patiently answered all of our questions and carefully explained every step of the process. We couldnât have had a better Vet help us say goodbye to our very beloved dog. Dr. Briell came as a professional but left as a caring and welcome friend.



The sad experience was made more comfortable by the veterinarianâs compassion. She allowed us to set the pace. Saying âgoodbyeâ in the warmth of our own home vs a sterile environment made a big difference.

Very caring and gentle experience. Letting go of our almost 18 year old cat was so much easier in our own home on his own bed. Communication was great, and it was an extremely peaceful passing with no pain or stress whatsoever.



She was very kind and compassionate. It is such a hard thing to do to say goodbye to your fur family member.she was very patient with my family. She explained the entire process and he passed very peacefully.



Dr Haros made my dogs passing comfortable and gave us closure. He had incredible bedside manner, accommodated our wishes to doing things outside in our backyard where our dog most loved to be and explained every step of the way and answered all of our questions seamlessly. For having to make one of the worst types of appointment it was the best experience we couldâve hoped for. Thank you Dr Haros



Thank you for your support, I am very grateful to you for your hard work. Thank you for giving me time to say goodbye to my Bentley (this is my favorite dog, friend and my little child)âŚ. I recommend Dr. Alexandra to all parents like me, to share their grief! Everything was done at the highest level! I am very grateful to you.đđ


I highly recommend CodaPet to anyone who has to make that difficult decision to say goodbye to their fur baby. Dr. Lori was absolutely amazing. She was so kind, compassionate and patient. She made such a scary experience truly beautiful. I had my Doobie 15.5 years and when the end came the last thing I wanted was for him to be afraid. She made him so comfortable and peaceful in his own home and bed. I am so grateful I made the decision to contact CodaPet.

Dr. Dan Taylor was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made the entire experience much easier for my family during a very difficult time. He was in constant contact throughout the week as I hemmed and hawed my decision. When it came time for our appointment, he spent a good amount of time explaining everything to my family and allowed time for questions. He assured us that we had made the right decision, which I know helped me in that moment. While this was an overall overwhelmingly difficult situation, he made it as seamless and stress free as possible. If I ever had to put another pet down, he would be my first call. Thank you Dr. Taylor, the Howell family appreciates you and your kindness!

We made the very difficult decision to euthanize our sweet cat, Sophie. However, CodaPet and Dr. Whala made at home pet euthanasia a beautiful option for our family. Dr. Whala created a calm and peaceful environment for our heartbreaking moment which put us all at ease including our fur baby. We thank you Dr. Whala from the bottom of our hearts for your compassion and care on such a difficult day.

Dr. Banks was so kind and friendly. She explained everything, and was really interested in all of our stories about Rocky! She genuinely cared about our family.



It was a difficult decision to let my sweet fur baby, Paisley, go. Dr. Neri was helpful and patient as I struggled with the decision over several weeks. When the time came, she was so sweet and gentle with Paisley, and she was caring and empathetic with me. There aren't enough words to express how grateful I am for this service and how thankful I am to Dr. Neri for supporting me and Paisley through this process â¤ď¸



When the day finally came and Dr. Sheryl Hemmer arrived at our home, although we felt the pain in our hearts for the impending loss of our loved one, her presence was as if we were greeting an old friend that you havenât seen in a long time. Dr. Hemmer was welcoming, loving, professional, powerfully empathetic, and made the process of helping our pet move on to the next life as painless and comfortable as it could possibly be.



Dr. Brielle was hands down the most compassionate Vet my husband and I have ever come across. She evaluated the situation and helped us in making the right decision for Ben. She explained everything and was never pushy and took all the time we needed for questions in making our decision. I would highly recommend her if you are making the decision on helping your love one pass over rainbow bridge. I thought it was very reasonable and 100 percent less stressful than the emergency vet. RIP Ben, momma and daddy loves you â¤ď¸ đ



Dr. Lori help help make a terrible day a little bit better by being so kind and caring for our cat on his last day. We were able to get an appointment scheduled quickly when things took a turn for the worst, and she was very helpful throughout the entire process. Highly recommend, professional, great communication, supportive!

This is a late response, but Dr. Devlin was amazing. The hardest thing emotionally is having to decide and put your fur baby done. He was very kind and caring. You could tell it wasn't just his job. He was very skilled and professional.



Doctor was patient, kind and loving with our cat. She treated him as though he was hers. I would highly recommend her to help with anyoneâs pet.

She was a very caring and competent Vet. I was very impressed how well she was able to help my not so nice cat go over the Rainbow Bridge. I would not want to have her job. She was so kind and she sent me a lovely card afterwards that I will keep forever. I recommend her highly. I COULD NOT HAVE NOT GOTTEN THROUGH IT WITHOUT HER GENTLENESS AND KINDNESS.



Dr. Marlene was amazing and made the very hard process much easier. She has compassion and I recommend her highly. Sheâs an incredible person and Dr.



This was my first experience with at home euthanasia for one of our pets. Dr. Briell Dzierga is very kind and empathetic. She truly cares and it shows. Thank you for assisting our sweet Libby to the Rainbow Bridge.

Dr. Lori came to our house yesterday to help us say goodbye to our kitty. She seemed to have all the time in the world for us. She had the skills to handle our feisty cat and stayed very calm and kind. She recommended that we let our dog come and see the cat before she took her away, so he would understand why she was gone. She asked my daughter, who is 17, if she wanted the cat on her lap for the last part, and my daughter was thankful for that. Thank you, Dr. Lori.

Very friendly. Was patient and considerate about the situation. He was very easy to talk to and answered my questions. 10/10 would recommend to anyone else needed the same service.



There are times when you need a guide to help you through a new and difficult situation. Dr. Ross is that person. She arrived precisely on time, explained everything clearly and made us comfortable through the process. Afterwards she reached out to make sure we were doing okay. We would highly recommend Dr. Ross.



Dr. Angela De Villa couldnât earn enough stars! She was as good as it could be in this difficult circumstance. She helped my beloved pet and my family embrace in home euthanasia in the most dignified and pain free way for my loved one. Thank you Dr. De Villa. German T. San Diego.

Dr. Hart was great and the experience could not have been more peaceful. This was a very painful day for me but Dr. Hart did not rush me and I had plenty of time to comfort my baby and say goodbye. She explained the process and told me what she was doing and what to expect for each step. I highly recommend her and it was worth every penny to be able to give my girl a peaceful passing.

Dr. Karen Whala was such a blessing! We are so thankful she came to our home and made us feel at ease with our little Jordan. Thank you for letting me hold her during the entire time. Your kind heart and soft nature made this difficult time more peaceful. Thank you!



I recommend Dr.Dover 1000%! I had to put my baby boy Romeo down after 16 years. He was with me when I was 19 and Iâm now 35. He was 9 months old and a rescue when I rescued him in 2009. May 1st 2025 is the day I put my baby boy (Yorkie) to rest so as you can probably understand I wanted to make sure he was comfortable and he was able to pass in the comfort of his own home. I was hoping that he would pass away on his own but his Vet said that it was time. I called around to a few places for at home euthanasia but my heart just didnât feel right until I found Coda pet. I was a little nervous because it wasnât just putting a pet or animal to forever sleep, it was putting one of your family to forever sleep. So I didnât know if bringing in a stranger would stop me from giving up the best goodbye and I didnât want to hold back, but the moment Dr.Dover walked through my door I felt a sense of comfort and relief. She was very thorough, kind, patient and talked me through each step of the way. During the process she would periodically check in to make sure that me and my family were ok. She gave us a safe space and I couldnât have asked for a better person to help take my baby boy over the rainbow bridge. He passed away peacefully in my arms. She let me know it was ok if I took hours or even just minutes to say goodbye. I didnât feel rushed, judged, or scared. She talked to Romeo like he was a person and not just some animal. She was gracious, loving, caring and thoughtful. If you have any doubts, look no further, because Dr.Dover is the one. It takes a special kind of soul to do the work she does and I know because I work in hospice care and you can tell her soul is beautiful! She was so compassionate and definitely made me feel like I was doing the right thing. she validated me and made any guilt I felt, go away. My husband felt the same and we would and will definitely use her again. Thank you Dr.Dover for all that you do, you have a heart of gold and have touched our lives with your grace. We will never forget the beautiful goodbye you gave to me and my baby boy.



"After 14 and a half wonderful years with my dog Angel, sadly the time came to have her euthanized. I did a brief search online, and was very fortunate to have found Dr. Kim Patterson. Angel had an amazing, happy, love filled life! She was my buddy and we went everywhere together. Our journey in life has come to a close, and I am very thankful to have had Dr. Kim help make the final moments come to a peaceful ending. I just picked up Angel's urn yesterday. I am so happy to have her back home now where she belongs right by the living room coffee table in her favorite spot. The house is different now........but I am at peace. Thank you Dr. Kim for your professionalism from start to finish, and thank you for your compassion from the first time I met you at the front door, to the last time we gently lifted Angel into your vehicle."

She was very caring and allowed me to be there for him. I and still very sad and miss him a lot. But having him die comfortably in my arms allowed him to not be stressed and he was comfortable with her the minute she walked through our door. Thank you so much. Denise and Schawn



CodaPet's at-home pet euthanasia service is a highly recommended alternative to visiting a vet clinic. When faced with this difficult decision for your cherished pet, providing them the comfort of being in their own home can make all the difference. Dr. Lara Allison was exceptionalâher empathy for our situation brought immense peace and comfort during this challenging time. The compassion and dedication she displays in her work truly supported us throughout the process. We cannot express enough gratitude for her kindness, caring, and professionalism.

My husband and I were searching for the best option to give our pet the rest and relief she needed. We wanted her to pass peacefully and learned about in home pet euthanasia. Dr. Alexandria Bufford with CodaPet is amazing and gave our pet the best care during a very hard time. We will be forever grateful.

Dr. Pugh was absolutely amazing throughout. She was so kind and gentle and made sure my beloved dog had the best possible experience in her passing. If you are considering in home pet euthanasia, Dr. Pugh is the best.

Dr Ayle was so very kind and helpful during this difficult time,She explained the process without sounding sterile or uncaring, Most of all she treated Asher with respect and kindness



Dr Earls was amazing. Fast to respond and was a true blessing for us. She was so good with our Cosmo and really made him feel comfortable. From start to finish she concentrated on Cosmo and us to make sure we all were good. She later sent us a beautiful âthinking of youâ card and then later brought over a beautiful urn with his ashes and even a clay paw print. There was also a certificate and date of cremation. If you have to go through this I would recommend Dr. Carol Earls 100%. She is a wonderful caring person.

Dr. Claire made an unbearable day a lot better. She communicated in a way that was comforting. She made sure we knew what to expect. She was extremely kind to me and explained every step in detail. Oliver was my best friend and she understood my pain. She came to my home so I did not have to have Oliver have any additional stress as he was an anxious dog around strangers. She cares! Highly recommended! Thank you Dr. Claire âĽď¸

Our experience with Dr. Glenn Jackson was incredible. He went above and beyond for us. Couldn't have had a better experience for such a tough moment, which made everything a little easier. 1000 thank yous wouldn't be enough.



Dr. Neri was so kind and compassionate. She helped us understand each step of the procedure and made sure our sweet Lily had the most peaceful passing.

Dr. Peterson is an amazing soul. She was extremely thoughtful and patient with our family as we said goodbye to our sweet boy, Bauer. She demonstrated compassion for Bauer and allowed him to cross over with dignity.



Dear Dr. Angela De Villa, helping our sweet doggy, Chocolate, be comfortable and at peace was the kindest, most humane service I have ever been witness to. She was the heartbeat of our household, and she is very missed. But we can feel good knowing she is free now from pain. The whole procedure was fast, but not rushed. Professional, and yet full of compassion. My family thanks you a thousand times over for being warm, understanding, and kind.



Her calmness and compassion was very appreciated. It must be difficult to maintain that level of outward empathy throughout every day in this profession. My other cats have never been comfortable around anyone else but myself and my partner but they were so at ease with Karen. It definitely takes a special kind of person. Thank you for making the experience as peaceful and painless as possible.



I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Lisa Fieg for the compassionate care she provided when helping our senior dog, Mochi, cross the rainbow bridge. Dr. Fieg was not only professional but also incredibly courteous and respectful throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand our grief and allowed us the space to say our final goodbyes to Mochi without feeling rushed. Her gentle and empathetic approach helped us navigate a very difficult moment with comfort and dignity. We are truly thankful for her support during such an emotional time.

It's taken me a minute to be able to write about the loss of my Piccola, the loss of losing a her was devastating as her life and spirit changed quickly. Dr. John Crawford is an amazing human. He is an empath for sure, and while his approach with Piccola was very professional... it was also-- so so very kind. You can feel that he is authentic in every way. What stood out to me was not just the kindness towards my daughter Piccola, but I could feel that he could see the pain her mom (me) was in, and he did everything to assure me and my husband in the process. I had "that moment" where I was like--- is this time-- because my pup who was lethargic, and not eating or drinking jumped up to kiss Dr. Crawford--- which scared me---is it too soon-- am I doing the right thing-- and he explained what was happening in her little body, and soul. Dr. Crawford it is the person I never want to see--- but if I have to see someone to help my pet pass... he IS THE person I would want again. Utterly brilliant smart-- UTTERLY kind and authentic human. Thank you Dr. Crawford for being such a special human. I will never forget you. Kind Regards Susan and Robert



Dr Houck was so kind and explained the process to us as she went along. She was very sweet to our 18 year old cat and gave us time to say our last good byes. It is such a hard decision to put a fur baby to rest but a humane one when the time is right. Dr Houck made us feel better about our decision. She is a gem.



My family and I felt comfortable and supported as we said goodbye to our family member Leia. Dr. Hart really was perfect coming into our home and helping us say goodbye with love. I am thankful she was the vet that we chose.

Dr. Roberts was fantastic. She genuinely showed care and love for our Ben, was extremely cognizant of our time and need for being with him as much as possible. She made it a much better experience than it may have been at a vet or otherwise. Highly recommend her services for you and your pet.



A few sentences of the experiences of the CodaPet services would be completely out of context and not give a true representation of what we were feeling. Our dog loved to give boops, steal shoes when he cam inside, take walks, protect and defend us from attacking dogs, and suck his dinner down faster than a speeding SR-71 Blackbird. Then he got cancer that metastasized to his lungs , and we tried to keep him happy to enjoy all those things. We did radiation, chemo, and drug cocktails to kept him alive and happy for months after the diagnosis, months longer than he had originally been expected to live. The pain got worse, we tried another round of radiation, which worked for a few weeks, but then he got fussy over food. We would change to other tasty things for him to eat, which worked at first for a few days, then would work only for one meal, then he wouldn't eat. Because the cancer was in his leg he would hobble outside, clearly in pain, but kept his head up, laying on the grass, watching the world go by, still being a dog. He got so thin. One never knows the best time to do the euthanasia. If too soon, one feels they're depriving the dog of being a dog and enjoying life. Too late and the dog is just miserable and can't really be a dog any more. We may have had one or two more days before our boopy-boy couldn't be a dog any more, but there was no point in dragging out his agony any more. This was no longer about what we wanted, it had to be about what was best for him. Dr. Lisa from CodaPet was empathetic, caring, and knew how to make everyone comfortable, including the dog. He barked at the stranger in the house, always wanting to protect us, even if he couldn't even stand up. She showed us how to keep him calm and rest and not be aware when she gave him the sedative. He finally relaxed, the pain washing away, finally at peace at home on his own bed before she gave him the final injections. Dr. Lisa wrapped him in a blanket and we carried him to her car and we put him in the back, with some nice flowers arranged almost like it was in a funeral home. She gave us each a hug, acknowledging her job was not easy, and we pushed the button to close the tailgate, giving us our last view of our Boopy-boy, asleep, finally out of pain, leaving us with memories of a great doggie life and finally the end of a long struggle to keep him as happy as we could.

If this profession must exist, Dr. Claire Gibson is the exact type of person you would want by your side to guide you through such a traumatic experience. It's taken me months to even write a review because I'm still so distraught over my loss, but I have to say she really made the experience the best it could possibly be given the circumstances. She was so incredibly kind and you can just tell she cares and feels for you so much. She was even able to give me peace of mind ahead of our appointment because I was unsure if I was doing the right thing or not. She was able to explain it in a way that just made sense and it made me feel a lot better about it all. She made sure everyone was comfortable and explained the process each step of the way. She even sent me the sweetest sympathy card. I still feel really lucky that she was the doctor I had. I think my experience would have been a lot worse had it not been for her. Thank you so very much - I truly appreciate everything you do.

Using at home pet euthanasia, was the best decision I made. To have a pet pass in a home that he had so many memories and where so much love given made the experience peaceful for not only him but myself. I will recommend Dr Rebecca and this way to anyone who ask. I encourage anyone to use this service to help it be private and special moment between an owner and a pet. Travis and I will always have that moment and itâs all thanks to Dr Rebecca and this service.

Dr. Keri was a consummate professional with just the right balance of kindness, patience and compassion. The entire process was easy to navigate, timely and so very dignified for our precious dog. We debated initially about the cost benefit of doing this at home vs at the vet. Hands down it was the right decision. Dr Keri carefully explained every step along the way and made sure we understood. Our dog was comfortable, surrounded by her favorite people and took her last breath gently and painlessly. We are grateful.

Dr. Orth was amazing . Of course the day was difficult but Dr. Orth was compassionate and explained every step of the process accurately and Iâm glad my precious girl was able to find her final resting place at home surrounded by love.



Dr Bagnoni was very professional and very caring about us and Charlie. After going through having this done at home, I would not do it any other way unless it was an emergency. Definitely recommend her. Thank you so much for Charlieâs paw print and for making sure we were okay.



All things considered, the experience we had in using CodaPet to arrange for our dear Bellaâs departure and in working with Dr Lori Thomas was wonderful. Her calm presence, capability in assessing our puppy and providing gentle guidance throughout the visit and entire process was welcome and appreciated. Highly recommend if you value giving your fur baby their dignity in your own home and comfort that they will be well taken care of before and after the procedure ends. Cannot thank Dr Thomas enough for her kindness and compassion along with us as we mourn our loss. We are at ease knowing Bella was well cared for in her final moments with the support of Dr Thomas for all of us.

Codapet was the best choice we made to help our pet at the end of his life. Dr. Warren was so helpful in every aspect of the procedure in telling me what was going to happen and what to expect. He told us to take as much time as we need and sat on the floor with us and just talked. Our little man went peacefully in my lap as we were petting him and talking to him. It couldn't have been more comforting to know he was not scared and we were all there in our home at the end. Thank you so much Dr. Warren!

Dr. Loughmiller was the perfect blend of warmth and distance at this heartbreaking time. She was gentle and kind, and she was also unobtrusive and quietly gave us the time we needed. Professional and compassionate. We couldn't have asked for a better passing for our sweet Annie. What a wonderful doctor and a wonderful service.

Dr Hamidâs care of us, Xochiâs K9 sisters, and most importantly of Xochi was exceptional. She came to our home and spent quality time with us. She did a complete assessment of Xochi. Her advanced age and associated health challenges were just too much for our Sweet Xochi to have to endure any more. Then when we were all ready, she helped our Xochi with the most peaceful, compassionate âpassing onâ that I have ever witnessed (K9 or human). I am a retired nurse and lover of rescued K9âs all my life, so I have witnessed many. I felt that the hug she gave us after it was all over was truly a genuine one. In summary, Dr Hamid was an Angel of Mercy for Xochi and our family. I would highly recommend her care to everyone.



We had to put our oldest dog down 6 days before we had to put Tate down and we used lap of love and I'm going to tell you the experience between the two or night and day. I will never ever recommend or use this company or that doctor again. Not only did I feel judged as she kept repeating how dehydrated my dog was, but my 17-year-old daughter felt judged as well. She didn't take any time and showed no compassion. Her bedside manner was horrible and it almost seemed as though she rushed us through the process. Lap of love was here for an hour. We were giving our dog treats. We were petting him. She asked when we were ready. She left the room after administering the first dose that puts him to sleep to give us privacy and then she left again when he passed so we can say our goodbyes and gave us privacy. Put him on a stretcher with blankets and carried them out to the car. This doctor puts my dog in a body bag (and I didn't appreciate that. She called it a body bag) in a basket. And then I felt completely blindsided when I went into my driveway where her car was parked to ask if I could change the urn and her boyfriend or husband was sitting in the driver seat waiting for her with a puppy in the car. My husband later then said that he was very unhappy with her and that he was wondering why the car was running in the driveway the whole time. That is insane and you charge $1,000 for this? I would have paid $2,000 for lap of love to come back out. Unfortunately they didn't have any doctors available. Tate was my best friend for 14 years. This has been a devastating loss for me and I am extremely extremely disappointed and upset with how this doctor handled the situation. I know she was dehydrated. She didn't have to keep saying it over and over again. I took her to the vet the day before and they did blood work and found out that morning that she was in kidney failure. I did everything that I could for my dog and then I knew it was time. She is the worst doctor ever. I will never recommend this company and I will never get that horrible experience out of my head. She should not be allowed around dogs and leaving her car running in the driveway with her husband or boyfriend or whoever it was in the car. And then she hands me some crappy death certificate. When we got our other dog's ashes back from the crematorium they had so many nice things in a bag to give us including his death certificate which was printed out and pretty and nice. Not a piece of copy paper that she just jotted the name and date down on. It was very very disrespectful and very hard. She has no compassion or bedside manner and I'm very disappointed. Again. I would never recommend this company to anybody, especially not that doctor. She did not care about my dog or my family.

I really dont think I could have asked for a better experience to help my family through this time. Dr Glenn Jackson was a blessing. He was soft spoken, heartfelt, and made everyone feel comforted while he helped us say goodbye to our 23 year old cat. My children were able to experience this necessary life lesson with Dr Jackson's support and step by step talk through of everything he did with Dax's (our cat) transition into death. If you have the unfortunate need for their services then Dr Glenn Jackson will be the angel you need in that tough time.

Dr. Gibson was the absolute greatest when we made the decision to say goodbye to our beloved Bentley. This was the first time we have used her & unfortunately it wonât be the last. Taking our kitty anywhere was always so stressful on him. She was the kindest & most compassionate vet ever. She handled him so gently. This was the best outcome for such a horrible situation.

Dr Martin handled our pup's euthanasia with compassion and professionalism. We will certainly use his services again when the need arises. I recommend the service whole-heartedly.

Courtney was very professional and extremely compassionate! She explained everything that was going to happen and we felt very comfortable with her. Losing a treasured dog is so difficult, yet she made it much easier for our beloved Blitz!



Our experience with Dr. Whala was an incredible one. Our 17 year old cat had been living with kidney disease for several years, but it progressed rapidly the last two months. Within a few days he greatly declined and we were faced with the unthinkable choice of putting him to sleep or continuing to care for him while he suffered unnecessarily. When we finally decided to have him humanely euthanized, our regular vet's office recommended CodaPet. We had to make a very fast decision, and were able to book an appointment with Dr. Whala the very next morning. From the moment we booked to the appointment, everything went professionally and with the utmost compassion. Dr. Whala texted the next morning to confirm everything and explain the process. When she arrived, she was extremely kind and caring, and allowed our entire family the time and respect to spend as much time as we needed with our beloved cat. She explained the entire process and was just lovely in her demeanor. It was obviously an emotional time, and she knew exactly how to proceed without overwhelming us. As the visit continued, she explained everything she was doing and made sure to ask us if we had any questions or concerns. She provided compassionate care and went above and beyond to respect this difficult time. For anyone wondering if this is the route for them to take, I highly recommend at-home euthanasia with Dr. Whala. Yes, it was difficult and not an enjoyable time, but I can't thank her enough for the care she took to help our beloved Indy cross the rainbow bridge. If you are in a similar situation, or questioning whether this is the right decision for you, I absolutely recommend using Dr. Whala and allowing her to help your loved one pass on with dignity. Thank you Dr. Whala for honoring our cherished pet.

Dr. Lutri was Absolutely Amazing!!! She was SO Kind and Compassionate, loving and caring to both our dog and to our entire family. This was one of the most difficult goodbyes of any pet my family and I has ever had to endure, Dr. Lutri understood that, and therefore took all the time our family needed to say goodbye. I truly cannot thank her enough for what she did. Dr. Lutri, my family and I love you, and will cherish your kindness to us forever, Thank you again!
I was connected to Dr. Lowman through CodaPet and was so thankful she was the one to help us say goodbye to our sweet pup. I had called around a few other places and couldn't find appointments within the week. I was beginning to worry I'd have to take my dog to the vet instead, which would have been extremely distressing for her. Thankfully, I checked CodaPet and was able to get a next-day appointment with Dr. Lowman. It was the perfect amount of time for us to spend one last good day with our girl, but also soon enough that she did not have to be in pain for long. Dr. Lowman was kind, compassionate, and a great listener. She allowed me to tell her my dog's life story, ask questions, and quelled my fears and doubts about the process. She sent a sympathy card to us in the mail, which just meant so much during this tough time. I am so glad that I know between the time we said goodbye and the time she was taken for cremation, that she was in the best hands with Dr. Lowman. I could go on and on, but will just say there's no one else I'd have wanted to guide us through this difficult time. Very, very happy with CodaPet and Dr. Lowman despite the unfortunate circumstances we encountered them in.

Dr. Sims was amazing and she handled her job with the utmost grace. Our dog Brooklyn was very calm and relaxed during the process. Dr. Sims also gave us comfort in knowing we were making the right decision.

Our beloved Frida just turned 20 years old this year. We knew she had several health problems, and that the time would come when we would have to say goodbye. Frida hated going to the vet, and got very stressed in the car. For this reason, we desperately wanted her to die peacefully at home. We had hoped that one day she would simply go to sleep and not wake up. But instead, she began to have a flare up with a chronic illness that made her incredibly sick and in pain. Last Wednesday, after hours and with our normal vet on medical leave (unavailable) we made a call for help to Coda Pet - at home pet euthanasia. Dr. Amy Roberts left right away. She was so kind and patient. Frida was so dehydrated, weak, and almost non-responsive already, but Dr. Roberts understood that we did not want her to hurt any longer. She didn't rush us, and even allowed our other pets time to say goodbye to their furbling. We will forever be grateful for the willingness to come quickly, and at night, to help our Frida cross over at peace, in our laps, by the fireplace, in our home. No amount of time is ever enough to be with our beloved babies, but at least we got to help her cross peacefully at home and with the help of a caring and patient vet. Thank you, CodaPet, and thank you Dr. Roberts.

Dr. Roberts was so helpful through the entire ordeal, from the first contact to the very end when Tillie was finally at rest. We didn't think Tillie was going to make it to the appointment time, but after sharing that with Dr. Roberts, she was able to move her schedule around a bit and come almost an hour sooner. We're SO thankful that Tillie was able to die peacefully at home surrounded by those who loved her the most but minus the stress and anxiety, that both human and pet feel, when making these sort of trips to a vet's office. Thank you so much Dr. Roberts, Tillie was such a loving soul, it's only fitting that we were able to repay her that love & comfort at the end of her life. She will be missed.



I unfortunately recently had to use CodaPet's services for my 15-year-old Beagle. Booking was very easy to do on their website. Having it done in my house made the process so much easier on my family and my other dogs. I am so thankful for the professional and compassionate care provided by Dr. Angela Schmillen in Richmond, VA! She helped to make a heartbreaking situation the best that it could be. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing at-home pet euthanasia.



Dr.Phillips was the Angel that came to our home. Without her kindness and caring this experience would have been so heartbreaking for us. She is indeed an Angel that all animals need at this time in their life. Thank you from our hearts and Bookers



My experience with Code A Pet started at a vet appointment with a very compassionate vet who recommended Code A Pet should I need them over a weekend. My call for an appointment was full of understanding about losing a pet. Dr. Sarah Clem came to my house to put down my 15 year rescue dog. My dog use to get overwhelmed when going to a vet, by having Dr. Clem come to my house she was able to stay calm. Dr. Clem was very empathetic, explaining everything she did. I would highly recommend this service and have to my friends.

She was very compassionate and took our needs into consideration. Talked us through the process. And gave us the time we needed to say goodbye and work through our grief. Great experience given the sad circumstances.


This service was so helpful to us. Dr. Glenn was so kind and caring. He walked us through the process and listened to stories about our beloved pup. It helped us immensely to say good bye to our Stella blue in the comfort of our own home. No stress of the vets office and our other dog was able to be there for his sister. We would definitely recommend this to make such a difficult day a little bit easier.

A 5 star rating isnât a high enough mark for the wonderful work that Dr. Keri Wasmoen does. She deserves nothing less than 10 stars! Her gentle demeanor and thoughtful care helped my family say good bye to our beloved Piper. Thank you Dr. Keri!!

Dr Josh Williams was so kind. It was the hardest thing we've ever had to do, but his compassion was something that made the experience a little less painful which is all we could ask for.

Dr. White came the same day I contacted her and she was amazing. She was very compassionate, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions. She noticed my daughter wasnât handling the situation well and offered to put some of our sweet kittyâs fur in a little keepsake bottle. That meant so much to us both. Given the circumstances, I couldnât have asked for a better experience.



Dr. Neriâs compassion and expertise made the passing of our cat very peaceful. We appreciated her willingness to work with our familyâs schedules to enable more members to be present. We are very appreciative for all she did to make the process easier for us and our cat.



Dr Lowman euthanized my dog that Iâve had for over 14 years with such kindness and compassion. After I booked the appointment she contacted me to ask if I had any questions and helped talk me through my doubts. She went through a medical history to make sure I was making the right decision and helped me feel less guilty about it all. When she arrived, she was so calm and compassionate. My pet died peacefully in my arms and I couldnât have imagined a better way for her to go. My heart is still broken but Iâm so grateful for Dr Lowman for making the process easier.



I was so upset losing my ol girl.. Dr was extremely kind and caring explained everything .. went very smooth a matter of minutes.. I have a old dog who will need to go over the rainbow Bridge soon and I will be calling back this doctor to come to my house⌠the Dr had empathy something you donât find anymore..
