Verified Veterinarian
In all the roles I've had in veterinary medicine, the part I found most fulfilling was supporting animals and their owners through end-of-life care. I have been doing hospice work for over 10 years and truly find it an honor to provide a peaceful, pain-free transition for beloved companions.

Worst time of our lives, having to let our sweet kitty go. Dr. Dover earned her 5 star rating by being the most wonderfully compassionate person you could ever hope for in the height of our despair. Her kindness will not be forgotten.
It is such an emotional time when you have to put your beloved pet down. I thought and prayed hard when my little pup Rocky wasn't getting well; he was only getting worse. After signing up online, I was contacted right away, by Dr Andrea Dover. She was able to come when I chose, only a day or two later. She was so good with Rocky. He was totally comfortable with her. After initial consultation, I carried Rocky to my bed, which I thought would provide maximum comfort and relaxation. I held him as he lay there, staring close into his sweet face. I talked to him the whole time, as Dr Dover administered the injections. Rocky didn't seem to notice Dr Dover was there or doing anything. I was free to coddle him and talk to him, and he was listening. We were truly at one during this process. I didn't want to get overly upset, and just let the tears flow as I gave him love, smiles of reassurance and promises to see him again in heaven. Afterward, Dr Dover gently gathered him in a soft blanket and placed him in a perfect-sized basket. Rocky was at peace, his sweet little face looked like he was sleeping, all warm and cozy in the blanket imprinted with hearts. It was so hard to let him go, but there couldn't have been a better way. Dr Andrea is very intuitive, gentle, and kind. She appeared to me very God-centered in her work. I was so grateful that it was her there with me. It's been tough, but lately I have been having exquisite dreams of Rocky running to me, just like he used to do when he was well. He's all excited to see me, full of energy, having fun and feeling so happy. I think that's a good sign. I believe my little Pumpkin (which I often called him), is at peace now and one day we will be together again. Last night, I dreamt I was offering him a bowl of pumpkin!
It was so very hard to have to decide to euthanize my seriously ill dog, who was a friend I had for 12 years. I am so grateful for how it was handled by CodaPet and the excellent veterinarian, Dr. Dover, who came to my home. She had thoughtfully answered my questions when I made the appointment. She even was able to come earlier than scheduled when my dog took a sudden turn for the worse. Every detail of the process was carefully thought out and explained to me.
So many “Thank You’s” to Dr. Dover and the service she provides. From the moment I scheduled our appointment, Dr. Dover communicated with me about ETA’s, what to expect from the at-home euthanasia process, and advice for post euthanasia processes as well. She was incredibly personable and compassionate to both my family and our dear late Kitty.
Dr Andrea was amazing, distracting us by asking the family nicknames for our dog, as well as his favorite toys/activities! She explained what was going to happen & asked permission. I especially loved that she gave us a green light to give him ANYTHING he wanted to eat for his last moments. It was a heartbreaking decision made a little easier by her compassion.
Dr. Dover came to our home to help our dog Jake pass. Her kindness for Jake was exceptional. She explained every step along the way with gentle guidance. It was a very peaceful passing.
