We had to say goodbye to our dog of 12 years, Mila, suddenly. Dr Alexander who came to our home was compassionate, patient, and gentle during an incredibly painful moment. She explained everything clearly, gave us time, and treated Mila with dignity and care. As a family with two young children, that level of kindness mattered deeply to us. We are grateful for the support we received during such a difficult goodbye.

Dr. April was wonderful. She was kind, empathetic, and patient. She listened to my daughter and me talk about our memories with Emerson. She cried with us. She fully explained the process and assured us that we were giving Emerson peace and freedom from pain. She helped us save memories with locks of Emerson’s fur and paw prints. She made sure that Emerson left with dignity, carrying him gently in a comfortable bed. She helped make this most difficult time meaningful.

During this very difficult time and decision, I am so grateful to have found Dr. Magnotta. Her communication with me about the process as well as talking about my daughter and her concerns from the moment I scheduled was amazing. When she arrived through the time she left, her calming presence and explanation of literally everything that was occurring allowed for both my daughter and I to be present while our Sophia passed in the most peaceful way. I have been sharing with others this experience and would highly recommend Dr Magnotta.

Dr. Lewis was incredibly caring and understanding of the difficult time our family was going through. She explained everything in full detail and provided a calm environment for our baby to rest. She was very flexible and went out of her way to arrive 5 hours earlier just to fit our needs. As a healthcare provider it was so comforting to see her dedication to what she does and is the exact type of person you need in those moments.

I cannot express enough the gratitude I feel for Dr. Lisa Feig. It was heart wrenching knowing I had to say goodbye to my precious Dottie before she began to suffer. We loved her so much. With that said, Dr. Lisa Feig made the experience so much easier and peaceful for our sweet girl. I knew Dottie was not in pain and crossed over in the most peaceful way. Dr. Feig is the most compassionate, caring, thoughtful doctor anyone could ask for. Anyone who has Dr. Feig in their life as wife, mother, daughter, friend--is an extremely lucky person. She was so giving of her time and patience. I recommend at home euthanasia to everyone. Having your loved one home, comfortable in their surroundings is really the best option. I hated the idea of her being at a hospital or vet clinic in a sterile environment. I got to hold her and tell her how pretty she was and how loved she was. And all the while, Dr. Feig demonstrated such genuine compassion. My fiancé and I were blown away. It takes a special person to do this type of job. And Dr. Lisa Feig more than meets that requirement. A million thanks to her and Coda Pet.

We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.
