Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
In general practice, I always gravitated toward end of life care for pets and their families as she felt it was important to provide a peaceful experience for pets and their parents. I believe that in-home euthanasia creates a calm and comforting environment for pets and their families as they say goodbye to their life-long companions.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Harper is wonderful. She made everything easier. Very compassionate and professional. My words fail to describe the exceptional service she provided. Thank you
How do you say goodbye to one of the most beautiful and gentle companions to ever grace our home? The decision was wrenching, but our sweet Sassy was telling us it was time. An angel was sent to us at one of the most emotional and confusing times of our lives. That angel was Dr. Amanda Harper. We knew Sassy (and me and my wife) were in the hands of a compassionate, caring and loving professional. Dr. Harper knew in her heart the difficulty of us having to say goodbye to our beloved Sassy, and her calming and patient support gave us a quiet in our hearts as our ailing Sassy gently left us. Dr. Amanda Harper is truly an angel.
I think God knew I needed someone as caring and understanding as Dr. Harper to help me through my ginger’s passing so when Dr. Harper came it was truly a blessing to have her be with us. It was just me and Ginger at home together and Dr. Harper brought so much warmth and love that I didn’t feel as scared and alone as I did before. I was feeling so guilty for making this choice and she helped me through a lot of those emotions. I didn’t know what to expect about this process and she was so good to me and good to ginger. I’m forever thankful Dr. Harper was the one who knocked on my door when it was time for me to say goodbye to my best friend.
We cannot thank Dr. Harper enough for the kindness, compassion, and comfort she provided during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. God truly sent us an angel in her. Saying goodbye to our beloved Aspen was heartbreaking, but Dr. Harper made the experience as peaceful and gentle as possible. Her explanation of every step was clear and reassuring, helping us understand what to expect while allowing us the space to process our emotions. The care and tenderness she showed toward Aspen—and toward us—was beyond what we could have hoped for. She treated Aspen with such dignity and love, making sure her final moments were filled with peace and comfort. We are forever grateful for Dr. Harper’s empathy and professionalism. In such a painful time, she was a source of warmth and guidance, and we truly cannot recommend her enough to anyone facing this incredibly difficult decision.
The loss of Dallas was more than the passing of a beloved pet. He was my best friend, fierce protector and loyal companion. We had been through a lot together - break up of a long-term relationship, moving from Florida to Tennessee, the loss of employment, new employment and our health issues. Dallas was only 7, but he had terminal cancer. He was courageously fighting the disease, but his body was becoming weak. Dr. Harper was incredible - I don't think she even knows how amazing she is! She helped us get through the worst day in my life. She considered Dallas' needs and devised a plan, so we would not have to muzzle him (as we did at the vet). She wanted to give him a peaceful passing. She did not treat Dallas like a dog, but a beloved family member. I am so thankful that she was the one who came to our home. She was amazing and I will forever be grateful to her! She used such care in the way she wrapped Dallas up in a blanket and let us send him off with his favorite lamb toy, even though it was equal to the size of him (Dallas was a sixty-pound, blue American bully). She let us have as much time as we needed to say goodbye to him and handled him (& me) with the upmost care and compassion. She even called us the night before to see how Dallas was doing and gave me a few ideas to help him through the night. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Harper & CODA Pet for their caring treatment of my best friend at such an awful time. Their care and compassion will not be forgotten. Thank you, Dr. Harper for being such an amazing person and making it possible for us to send Dallas peacefully off with love. You are an incredibly special person.
Dr Harper was so loving g and caring. Zara laid in my lap and we got to talk and love on her as she passed. I would highly recommend Dr Harper to anyone going through such a difficult time.
