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

I cannot thank Dr. Briell enough for her kindness and compassion she showed our family as she helped our dog, Snickers, cross the rainbow bridge. She was so loving with Snickers and asked our family questions to get to know her better. I had phoned our veterinarian to ask for a service that would allow the procedure to be done in the comfort of Snickers' home so we wouldn't have to make her travel and be more anxious and uncomfortable. When I searched for the suggested service, I came across CodaPet and read the touching reviews of Dr. Briell and felt she was the right veterinarian for this difficult decision. I am so thankful I went with her. She is an incredibly special person for a very difficult decision that many pet families have to make. I highly recommend Dr. Briell.

I have never been through having a pet passing away at home.Dr. Briell Is the most wonderful, Caring, considerate and compassionate Dr I have ever met. She came to the house to help with ziva, She couldn’t have been kinder as if it was her own cat. She treated Ziva with love and compassion. She made sure that Ziva was comfortable. She never rushed us. She even had our other cat come in to see what was going on. In our time of grieving, Ziva couldn’t have been taken care of By anybody better. She made the process absolutely bearable. She knew that my husband had passed away recently and on her way with Ziva ( my husbands favorite) she saw a rainbow and texted me to say that she’s going over the rainbow bridge and John was welcoming her. It meant the world to me . Thank you, you truly are amazing. ❤️

Dr. Briell Dzierga was so amazing during such a difficult time for us. She was so patient with us and our kids. I wouldn’t have wanted any other doctor to be with us during such a heartbreaking moment. I will forever be grateful for her, all the services she offered us and the encouragement she gave us. She has helped our grieving process so much!

Dr Briell Dzierga with Coda Pet has handled 2 seperate euthanasia events of our Abyssinian Cats. Our first experience with Dr Dzierga was exceptionally compassionate and caring for both our beloved male Abby suffering from cancer. Most recently our Female Abby experienced stage 4 kidney failure as was in very bad shape. Dr Dzierga scheduled with us for a second time since we were sold on her approach, compassionate manner, and Vet skills overall. She explains the process in detail and uses a three step process allowing you time to be with your pet, best for the Pet and Yourself. We are convinced that our Abby’s experienced the minimum stress and the maximum love possible. I commend Dr. Dzierga for her professionalism and Compassion for the animal as well as the pet owner. We were a wreck emotionally and she helped us through the process. Dr. Dzierga is a “10” in our experience and anyone considering home Euthanasia should seriously consider the process superior to at Vet office in EVERY WAY, and Dr. Dzierga for attending to your beloved pet.

Thank you Dr Dziegra! I was so afraid of the process of putting my Ryleigh to sleep. She was my everything for 16 years. You made her so comfortable. The whole family was there to say goodbye. You helped us through a very difficult time. From beginning to the end you made our decision to say good bye the right one. Ryleigh went peacefully to sleep with her whole world around her. I would highly recommend this service and Dr Dzierga!

I recently had to say goodbye to my 15 year old pup, Emma. It was an extremely difficult decision. Dr. Briell Dzierga came by and sat on the floor with us while we went over our options. She was so kind and understanding, and reassured me that I was acting in the best interest of my elderly and ailing dog. I miss that pup so much, but I am at peace with how that morning played out. Dr. Dzierga was patient and accommodating, and I could not have asked for a better person to be there for my dog's final moments. She did everything with such care and dignity. She explained to me everything that would happen and answered all of my questions. I'm grateful for her calm presence in what was a very emotionally charged situation for me. I'm also grateful that we were able to be at home instead of stressing my dog out with the unfamiliarity of the vet's office. Dr. Dzierga then followed up by sending the nicest condolences card a few days later. I will recommend this service to everyone I know with an aging pet, just so they know who to call when the time comes.
