Dr. Litwack made an incredibly painful day as peaceful and compassionate as it could possibly be. From the moment he arrived, he treated Stewie with such gentleness and dignity. Instead of rushing through the appointment, he got down on the floor with him, met him where he was most comfortable, and made sure he felt safe and loved. It was obvious that he cared deeply, not just about his patient, but about our family as well. Dr. Litwack carefully explained every step of the process before and as it happened, so there were no surprises. His calm presence, kindness, and compassion gave us space to say the peaceful goodbye our family needed. Having the procedure done at home allowed Stewie to spend his final moments in the place he loved most, surrounded by the people who loved him. We will always be grateful to Dr. Litwack for treating Stewie with such empathy, respect, and grace. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone facing this incredibly difficult decision.

Dr. Katie Todd was so kind and informative. She explained the process and answered all of our questions. Our sweet girl is at peace and out of pain and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for her.

Dr Stadler entered our home as a complete stranger greeted by our deep heartbreak as we reluctantly prepared to say goodbye to our handsome boy, Fenway. His litter mate brother, Wrigley, passed 8 months earlier and Fenway gave us much needed comfort and purpose while our hearts were still trying to mend. We weren’t prepared to say goodbye to him, but knew we could never be. Our boys were 13 and 13.8 years respectively and gave our family every ounce of joyful memories they could possibly give. Dr Stadler completed her assessment on a Saturday but honored our decision to give him another night to see if he could rebound from an illness that overcame him very quickly. The next morning she reached out first thing to ask how our boy was doing and we knew it would be a very difficult day of saying goodbye. We put his orthopedic bed on the deck during the coolerearly hours of the morning and watched the last sunrise with our beautiful boy. Dr Stadler arrived mid- morning and took our last photos with Fenway. While laying on his bed and favorite blanket, Dr Stadler gently administered a sedation that provided peaceful rest and with my hands cradling his head, Fenway crossed the rainbow bridge surrounded by our love. Though our hearts will take time to mend with this difficult loss, we take refuge knowing he isn’t struggling and are confident with our decision for this personal and peaceful transition. Dr Stadler exemplified professional and compassionate care for our beautiful boy and we are very grateful. We appreciate the opportunity to say goodbye to Fenway in his home while surrounded by love and beautiful memories. Dr Stadler departed that day with an understanding of the profound joy our labs, Wrigley & Fenway, brought to our family. Dr Stadler departed our home no longer a stranger, but as our friend. Thank you, Dr Stadler.

In my life I have been blessed to have a few dogs. Saying goodbye is part of the price we pay. Dr. Gordon made this horrible time easier. I will be eternally grateful for the kindness and compassion she showed not only our precious Baby Girl but also us.

Dr. Matthew is so kind and compassionate. He helped us through this very difficult time, losing our two dogs within a month of each other. And when our Smokey took a turn for the worse, he came out earlier so he didn’t have to suffer. Can’t say enough good things about he and CodaPet.

We are so grateful that Dr. Courtney White was available to us, last minute nonetheless. We were able to say goodbye to our precious boy Radar in his favorite spot in our backyard. Dr. White was so kind and compassionate, explaining the process as it progressed, allowing us to make the decisions we could. She truly understood the bond we had with our boy. We will cherish the memory of him forever ❤️
