Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I have always had a strong love for animals, combined with a fascination for science and problem solving I knew becoming a Veterinarian was my calling. After serving countless pets over the years, my professional interest has evolved into a desire to provide a source of help in the times most pets and their owners need it the most. I strive to provide the most compassionate, peaceful, and stress-free experience possible. Having seen way too many pets suffer or experience stress in their last moments, my goal is to help provide relief while ensuring your pet experiences the utmost love and comfort as they pass in the comfort of their own home.

What pet parents are saying

We had to put one of our babies down yesterday. He was my sons dog since he was 8. Dr. Christina Vernon was absolutely amazing. She answered all of our questions and helped us through the difficult time. She made me feel better knowing that Zeus was at home surrounded by his family. Thank you Dr. Christina for making the process a little bit easier on us.

She deserved peace at her old age. Me and my husband are Soooooo happy with our choice of choosing Codapet.com. If there was a 10 star option we would choose it! Thank you again Dr. Christina

Dr Vernon was incredible. Her compassion and patience while we went through our loss has been exceptional. It’s not an easy thing to go through and she was with us from the start and checked up on us after, even providing coloring books for our kids to help cope with their loss. She immediately reaching out to provide our sweet girl’s remains. She made a heart wrenching experience beautiful. Thank you!

Dr. Vernon was caring and compassionate. She did a beautiful job helping me w/Molly Mae's passing. I passed along your company to Petco's Manager in Glendale. He had not heard of your service and was interested in checking it out. Thanks, Gloria Moscarello
