Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I've always surrounded myself with animals (perk of being a country kid with very understanding parents), and decided to be a veterinarian before I even started kindergarten. After being in clinical practice for 14.5 years, I've developed a passion for physical rehabilitation, hospice, and end-of-life care. I consider it a deep privilege to help pets and clients through the most difficult stage of the human- animal bond.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Anna Peterson was so kind, caring and compassionate. I cannot tell you what it meant to our family to be able to be with our sweet Eska in our own home. She was surrounded by love and it was so peaceful. Until we meet again sweet girl. I know you are running free.

I learned about CodaPet after getting a brochure at my vet’s office. Pixie was nearly 17 when her time came but it did not make my decision any easier, but I wanted it to be at home. Coda’s staff were wonderful and walked me through the entire process. They were professional, understanding, and empathetic. When Dr. Peterson arrived at my house, I was immediately put at ease by her calm, caring manner. She was so gentle with Pixie, and explained every step she was taking along the way. Luckily the procedure didn’t take long and it was peaceful, for which I’m eternally grateful. The Coda website also has many resources that have helped greatly in the days since Pixie’s passing. I did opt to have Pixie’s ashes returned to me but I can’t speak to that as I have not yet received them; overall I am impressed with the service Coda provided and can’t tell you how glad I am to have found them. If you’re here, my heart goes out to you. Let Coda help, you will not be disappointed.

Dr. Anna Peterson was amazing from the start. She was caring, focused and attentive. This was a very difficult time for me and my senior cat Jj; however, she helped me walk through it. My Jj went peacefully and lovingly at home, which made the process more personal and easier on him. It takes a special person to do what she does and I'm beyond grateful for her.

Review by Dr. Anna L. Peterson, DVM

I was very impressed and thankful for the doctor. She was extremely knowledgeable, kind, understanding, and a great help. Reassurance that we were doing the right thing, by putting our dog down, was much needed and appreciated. Dr. Peterson made everything easier during the most difficult time.

Review by Dr. Anna L. Peterson, DVM

Dr. Anna helped us say goodbye to our four-legged family member on our terms. It was very helpful and she showed plenty of empathy along the way. I suggest anyone to go this route if needing more comfort when saying goodbye to your loved one.

Dr. Peterson made a very hard day into a peaceful one. She treated Roxy with gentleness, love and respect as we helped her cross the rainbow bridge. She was kind and supportive to us as well. Overall, a much better experience compared to going into the vet clinic for euthanasia. We highly recommend Dr. Peterson!
