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
We recently had to make the tough decision to put our sweet kitty to sleep and went with CodaPet. Our vet, Dr. Courtney White was so compassionate and patient. She walked us through each step and was very gentle and calming. She made the whole process a lot easier.
Coming to terms with the end of your pet's life can bring lots of emotions and distress. Dr. Courtney White was an incredibly calming presence and walked us through step by step how the procedure would go, what to expect and allowed us to ask questions. She was also super patient and respectful while we were saying our last goodbyes to my dog Petey. She allowed us space and time to mourn before and after and took great care of my dog in transport. She left us with a healing stone as well which was quite a touching gesture. She was very professional, had clear communications, and offered lots of flexible options for receiving my dog's ashes back. I cannot thank her enough for giving me the ability to say goodbye to my life long pet in the comfort of our home.
She was very kind and compassionate. It is such a hard thing to do to say goodbye to your fur family member.she was very patient with my family. She explained the entire process and he passed very peacefully.
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 made it possible for us to say goodbye to our baby boy Radar where he was happiest, in his own backyard. The sun was shining on him as he gently moved on to wait for us. Saying goodbye has been more difficult than we ever imagined, but because of Dr. White’s compassionate care we remember only peace and love, up until the very end.
She was so thoughtful, sweet and the best part was that she never rushed the situation or made us feel like she had anywhere else to be. Her gentleness and understanding of our situation did not go unnoticed. I HIGHLY recommend her and this service to anyone navigating through this terrible, yet unavoidable transition.
