Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Growing up on a farm, I saw many animals with bite wounds from dogs, trauma from getting stuck in fences, and mamas having trouble giving birth. I wanted so badly to grow up and learn how to help them. After being in private practice for several years, I saw how meaningful and peaceful it was for families to say goodbye to an animal they loved in the comfort of their own homes. I discovered that I enjoyed making sure the pet has a peaceful passing with no fear or pain, and being able to help a family memorialize the friend they love so much.

What pet parents are saying
Dr McCasland was so amazing with Drumline. It was such a hard time for us having to say goodbye (for now). She wasn't rushed at all and spoke so sweetly. Her compassion and personal attention to us and him was unsurpassed. I will forever be grateful for her.
Bandit was beloved by so many for 15 1/2 years. When his time came, we decided to have his goodbye at home. We lucked out and got Dr. McCasland. She was so kind and treated Bandit as if she’d known him his whole life. She stroked him while listening to our stories. We never felt hurried. It was the best experience you could imagine considering. We are grateful.
The decision we had to make to euthanize our dear Charlie was one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make. He hated to travel so I couldn't bear the thought of having to force him into the car so we started to look at at-home euthanasia. When Amanda came into our house, she was so sweet and loving. She was gentle and caring...she truly gave Charlie a peaceful passing. She explained the process to us and went above and beyond even leaving a small shaving of his hair along with a brochure on the grieving process. I hope that we never have to use her services again, but if so, I would call her in a heart beat. I just can't sing enough of her praises. If it's time to say goodbye to your dearly loved pet, please consider Dr. McCasland.
Dr. Amanda McCasland was so compassionate and professional. She totally understood our grief and gave us resources. She also followed up. She made our fur baby so comfortable during the entire process. The in home process was so worth it. For the fur baby and us too. We never felt rushed. It made a difficult time so much easier. I would highly recommend CodaPet and especially Dr. McCasland. I painted this picture of our Sierra this week. 💕 We miss you, baby girl. 😢 Thank you.
Words cannot express how compassionate, sensitive, personal, and professional Dr. McCasland was. She explained each step and let us take as long as we needed for each step. I am so thankful that we were able to be with Duncan at home during this difficult time. I cannot even imagine what it would have been like to have to take him in the car and be in the vet's office for his final moments. Duncan was not under any additional stress; and although it was very difficult for us, being at home in our own surroundings with such a compassionate doctor somehow made it easier. While we are grieving deeply, knowing that we made Duncan's last moments as stress free as possible provides us with a little comfort. After placing Duncan in Dr. McCasland's car surrounded by soft, comfortable blankets, Dr. McCasland gave both of us a big hug. Thank you, Dr. McCasland for making such a difficult situation somewhat easier.
Dr McCasland was very kind and compassionate in helping with my dog who had suffered a long term illness. When I asked she explained the process to me in terms I could understand, which also helped me through the process. I was allowed to be there the whole time and saw she was very respectful and gentle with my dog. The process was peaceful and quiet as we were able to do it at my home. I am very grateful to have such an outstanding vet help me navigate this difficult process.
