Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

At a very young age I developed a fascination with animals through drawing. This quickly evolved into my passion for animals and the reason of choosing the career path of becoming a veterinarian. My past experiences have led me to work with a wide variety of species ranging from biomedical primates to small and large animals. Through practicing I have found that quality medicine and care along with quality time spent with owners and pets is imperative to my values as a practitioner. In-home euthanasia allows me to embody these facets and provide optimal care to my patients in the comfort of their own home.

What pet parents are saying

When we found out that our dog Hercules was diagnosed with Lymphoma and given only weeks to live, we were devastated! He was only 4 years old and was such a good dog. I was terrified of the idea of euthanizing my baby. I couldn't imagine that my dog's last moment was going to be at the Vet's office. A friend of mine told me about in-home pet euthanasia and explained every detail of their experience. Although our hearts were torn, we decided that not only was it the best service for our family, but it was also the best for Hercules. Everything was explained so well, step by step, in a manner in which our children were comfortable with saying goodbye to their friend at home. Each last moment that was spent with him was filled with sadness, joy, and hope. We were honored to be there for him as he transitioned. Although we were sad to let him go, we were happy that he met a peaceful and dignified end. We decided to have Herculese cremated and brought back home. I received a beautiful urn and my fur baby will be at home with me forever. I highly recommend Dr Briell Dzierga at CodaPet!

Review by Dr. Briell Dzierga

Anyone that cares for their pets as family can understand the heartbreak and emptiness this loss brings. We welcomes a litter of infant kittens to our home 14 years ago and were blessed to watch them age alongside our children all of these years. We lost one of our darling cats this past Spring to kidney disease. The decision was kind, but agonizing. Not just for us, but her brothers and sister. Briell came to us on that very sad day with one goal - to carry us through to the next day. It is hard to imagine feeling anything other than sadness, but she managed to remind us, even in those dark moments, of what a gift our darling girl was; we talked for an hour about special memories while our other cats lived out their last moments as 4. Briell has the gift of calmness. She is tender, gentle, her voice is angelic and she manages to captivate and steer the room to a sweet side that is unimaginable. She has found her lot in life and I am thankful to know her

If you are faced with this most difficult of decisions, o not hesitate to call Dr. Briell Dzierga - so kind, compassionate, thorough and considerate throughout our time spent facing this decision and ultimately choosing to let our sweet boy go.

Review by Dr. Briell Dzierga

Dr. Brielle was hands down the most compassionate Vet my husband and I have ever come across. She evaluated the situation and helped us in making the right decision for Ben. She explained everything and was never pushy and took all the time we needed for questions in making our decision. I would highly recommend her if you are making the decision on helping your love one pass over rainbow bridge. I thought it was very reasonable and 100 percent less stressful than the emergency vet. RIP Ben, momma and daddy loves you ❤️ 💙

On March 11th, 2026 our family had to say goodbye to our beloved Karma. Our 6-1/2 year old was not only a loved family member, but she was the leader of our Fur Pack and a faithful service Dog. Upon making the tough decision to euthanize her, we made an appointment with Dr. Dzierga. Dr Dzierga arrived, took time to explain the entire process to us, listened to stories about Karma and brought her lots of treats. We never felt rushed, had lots of time to say goodbye even though it wasn’t easy. Every interaction Dr Dzierga had with Karma she treated her respect and like she was her own dog, always petting her and comforting her. Dr Dzierga not only listened to everything we shared about Karma, but then a card arrived a few days later and she took the time to include a personal note commenting about some of the things we told her. We were so touched by this. Dr Dzierga allowed Karma to have her pain taken away peacefully, and in the comfort of her own home with Friends and Family with her. Karma is safely back home where she’ll remain furever. Thanks again Dr Dzierga.
