Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I offer in-home euthanasia because it can transform a profoundly sad moment into a deeply personal and peaceful farewell. The clinical environment of a veterinary office can be overwhelming and distressing, not just for pets but for owners as well. At home, the process can be gentler and less traumatic, allowing for a more natural transition. I am dedicated to honoring the beautiful bond between pets and their owners. My ultimate goal is to allow pets to pass away in a familiar, peaceful setting that honors their dignity.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. DeVilla was a very compassionate and considerate person. She also affirmed that under the circumstances, this was the best choice for my baby to avoid more significant pain in the near future. She explained all thoroughly and only moved forward each step when our family was ready. We were blessed to have her take care of my little Moonstone.

She was so great. Letting me be at Darby head looking into her eyes during her euthanasia was so special. Can’t say enough about Angela. What a great asset she is to Coda. With love, Mary

Review by Dr. Angela De Villa

The thought of having to say goodbye to my best friend was unbearable but I knew with the option of having him pass in the comfort of his home was a must. I was able to lay and snuggle with my baby while he went peacefully and Sarah was so thoughtful, kind and patient with us and our Nanook boy.

She was very kind and informative of the euthanasia process. She answered all of my concerns prior to the procedure. My sweet girl was in good hands and crossed over the rainbow bridge very peacefully

Our Vet was very detail-oriented and compassionate. Not only, did she do everything in her power to help my dog,she also consulted outside sources. She is a true gem.

Dr. De Villa was so kind and considerate and really helped us through a tough decision. But we do believe out kitty is in a better place and she helped us ensure he got there peacefully.
