Dr. Delia could not have been more compassionate in her work with me and my dog. Her presence, gentleness and pacing all contributed to a peaceful process at this heartbreaking time. Would recommend her to anyone facing the same situation.

Choosing to say goodbye to our sweet cat, Sasha, was so hard, but CodaPet and Dr. John Crawford made it a peaceful and comforting experience. Being able to keep Sasha at home in her favorite spot on the porch, surrounded by our love, was the greatest final gift we could give her. Dr. John was everything we could have asked for in this deeply personal, impactful moment. Upon his arrival, he brought a sense of calm, deep empathy, and respect for our journey’s end with Missy Sass. He guided us through every step of the process with a soft voice, ensuring we were ready and never felt rushed. Dr. John treated Sasha with such gentle care, talking to her and to us. He administered the medications so smoothly, so gently that she quietly relaxed, and then drifted off to sleep without pain or fear. We are so grateful to Dr. John for turning a heartbreaking day into a sacred, beautiful moment. If you are facing this difficult choice for your pet, I highly recommend at-home euthanasia, and specifically Dr. Crawford.

Dr. Bates was so kind and gentle with my sweet girl. She was also very kind to my mother and myself as we were obviously very sad and crying. I appreciate the time we were given to say goodbye and the respect shown to my first baby and very best friend. This was, by far, the hardest decision I ever had to make, and Dr. Bates’ wonderful care and empathy helped to reassure me.

Dr. Laura was kind and so very patient. She made sure Shelby was comfortable and me as well. I can’t say enough good about the whole process and I am glad we found CodaPet.

We recently had to make the difficult choice for our dog to utilize in home pet euthanasia. As this was our first loss of this kind, our vet referred us to CodaPet. From the sensitive and informative text messages and the gentle explanation of the procedure to the absolute love she showed our dog and our whole family, Dr. Angela Schmillen of CodaPet far exceeded our expectations. We hadn't seen our dog wag her tail in days, but the second she met Dr. Angela, it was obvious that she knew she was in good and capable hands. Dr. Angela's kindness and compassion throughout the experience was beyond what we could have expected. In fact, my children (ages 20, 21, and 25), who were all present, have remarked numerous times in the last four days about how absolutely fantastic she was at putting them at ease and genuinely expressing care not only for Piper but for all of us too. I would highly recommend CodaPet if you need in home pet euthanasia, and, above all, I would most certainly suggest you request Dr. Angela Schmillen as the veterinarian to walk through this experience with your family.

Dr. Duvall did a fantastic job easing our dog out of this world, and in tending to our human needs and concerns as well. She really went the extra mile and was full of compassion for all of us. I can't imagine how the inherently difficult situation could have been made any easier.
