This was my first time saying goodbye to my dog at home and Dr. Gonnering was so kind and compassionate from the moment she greeted Mugsy ans myself at the door. She gave me the time I needed and treated Mugsy with such care.

This is one of the hardest decisions anyone will ever have to make. My 7 year old insisted on being present to say goodbye. Dr. Dzierga is a wonderful person. She didn't rush any moment, we talked about what steps would happen, why, how. Any questions my daughter had she would ensure to answer. We got to talk about good memories we wanted to share, we got to give him all of the treats and see him be excited and happy. She is the sweetest, most professional, and understanding vet doctor I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I am so grateful for her during this terrible time for my family.

So grateful we found CodaPet and Dr. Gary when we needed to move up our appointment because our sweet girl was declining faster than anticipated. Dr. Gary was so gentle, calm, kind and empathetic. He made our goodbye so peaceful and I felt relief that our girl was not suffering anymore. He made a heartbreaking moment much easier to bear. Thank you Dr. Gary.

Unfortunately we had to hire Dr Murray for the second time in 10 months. Fortunately, Dr Murray was just as kind and gentle as the first time. He gave our Bailey his time and listened to his stories. Not only did he listen he genuinely cared and engaged in asking questions about our time with both our dogs. He remembered our first dog by name and made us feel comforted in the knowledge they would be reunited. While I can never say I was happy to see him, I know that he is an excellent caretaker in the hardest moments any pet parent has to experience.

Dr. Chandler was the best she was patient and very concerned and considerate of Abby’s care and our understanding of the process we were going to experience. Her compassion was very comforting and she provided great care to our Abby, myself and my adult children. Forever grateful Michelle Juarez
