Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
My father instilled in me his love of animals from a young age. I was privileged to be able to allow my 15 year old Golden Retriever, Annie, a peaceful passing at home, in the spot she chose. I want to be able to provide that same peace and comfort for other beloved pets and their owners.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Courtney White came out to our office on a Monday evening to put our precious shop cat down. We all loved our Mayer but he was 14 and had recently had surgery to repair a broken hip and just wasn't recovering well from the surgery. We didn't want him to suffer and new it was time to say goodbye. Dr. White was so kind and caring and made the whole process so much easier on Mayer and on us. We highly recommend using Dr. White and CodaPet if you find yourself in a situation where you need to say goodbye to your beloved pet. It was so wonderful to allow our special guy to pass in the place he is comfortable, without having to go for a scary ride in the car, and for his people to be able to surround him in those final moments in our comfortable place, too. Thank you so much, Dr. White! -Kristy & Payton, A&H
Codapet was exactly what we needed for our dog Buddy. I got references from my vet and checked them all out, but Codapet was what we decided with. I have not had in home euthanasia so I felt I was going in blind. Codapet had a very easy website to navigate, (because I couldn’t talk to anyone without crying) and I eventually spoke with a customer service rep after scheduling, and they were very understanding and patient. Then, the local doctor, Dr. White made sure to contact me beforehand and ask any questions about the appointment. Then, she was very informative and patient with us during the appointment. We were not rushed, and everything was at our pace as we said goodbye to our very good boy. She talked us through every step. Dr. White is a compassionate medical professional and truly understands what we were going through. I can’t recommend her enough, she’s absolutely amazing!
Dr. White was so kind and gentle with our 11 year old English Mastiff. Our dog was scared and disliked the vet offices. We loved our dog so much but it was time due to multiple safety issues with her heart condition and her collapsing. The Doctor made it peaceful. My dog was comfortable with her. The 3 step process made it painless. Our whole family was there to support and say goodbye. We thank CodaPet and Dr. White very much. We are sad to see her go but we know we did the right thing.
Dr. White came over on the weekend and quite at the last minute when our sweet Clementine went downhill very suddenly and our regular vet was closed. Dr White was incredibly respectful and so, so caring as she helped our girl cross the rainbow bridge. Dr. White and Coda Pet made a horrible situation bearable and will forever be grateful for the care she gave to us and to our wonderful Clementine.
Dr. White was really great. She was clear about the process, had compassion when speaking with us, and gave us the time we needed without rushing. thank you
This was the most peaceful experience we could have asked for both for our pup and our family. Dr. White was WONDERFUL. She ensured our pup was comfortable and not afraid. She gave our family all the time we needed to get ready and to say goodbye. She explained the process to us and answered all of our questions to help us cope with our decision and she was so incredibly compassionate before and after. She even hand delivered our pups ashes to our home for us afterwards. She made this very difficult process peaceful and put us at ease. We are truly, truly grateful ❤️
