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

On June 30,2025, we had to have Dr. Christina come to our home for our final day with our beloved "Tom". He was truly our family for 11 years. Dr. Christina was amazing and understanding. We are so grateful for her and how lovely she treated our boy. We have been referring everyone we know to Codapet and Dr Cristina. We miss Tom so much, but thankful for her services...... Allen and Lynn

Dr Vernon was fantastic during a very difficult time. She made our pet feel comfortable and was very patient with us. She explained the process and truly was compassionate. I would fully recommend her home services and appreciate her outstanding service.

She was perfect, completely respectful, if we have to do this again we will surely seek her out to have her perform this again. She was absolutely wonderful, it was so difficult for us but she made it so much easier to go through. We cannot say enough of how wonderful she was.

Dr Christina was an angel. I had my Chi Chi cat for 19 years , it was hard to let him go. She was kind, patient, and caring through the difficult process. Thank you Dr Christina Vernon.

We are so grateful to have found Dr. Christina. She is kind, caring, compassionate and we cannot recommend her enough. She made the whole process a lot less scary than we imagined it would be. She treated our fur baby as if he was her own.

Dr Christina, was very sweet to my Febe. I wanted Febe's last moments at home with her family. She was a happy girl and she is missed terribly. But this was so much easier for her. Thank You so much for being there for us.
