Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I wanted to become a veterinarian so that I could make a difference. When I was in college, I had a deep interest in science and research, and I loved to challenge myself. I was fortunate as a child to have parents that understood my love for animals and would allow me to "bring home the strays", so to speak. I worked for several years in the restaurant industry before deciding to use my gifts with people and animals, as well as my science background, to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian. I believe in the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. To me, this means treating the people I meet and the pets I take care of with respect, dignity, and compassion. I liken being a veterinarian to a pediatrician: Since both pets and small children cannot always communicate to me what is wrong, or where it hurts, it is up to me to listen to the pet parent and use what they say to help diagnose and treat their pet.

What pet parents are saying

Debra was a God sent angel ! She took her time with us and explained everything that she was doing! Harley was very happy with her and I think he was very grateful to her! We ended up knowing each other and that made for a pleasant experience! We couldn’t have wrote the ending any better!

Review by Dr. Deborah Perzak

When I realized that it was time for my sweet Axle to cross the rainbow bridge I wanted to create a peaceful, calm setting in a familiar place surrounded by people and things he loved. I reached out to Coda Pet to schedule a consultation. Dr. Perzak was so helpful in explaining the process. She answered all of my many questions leading up to our appointment and even assisted me with moving up the initial appointment when Axle’s condition worsened. When she arrived at my home, we chatted and she examined my baby and loved on him as we spoke. She allowed me to tell her of our many adventures and special moments together over the past 15 years. She explained everything as she went along and there was never any rush. She gave us space and allowed all the time that we needed to say our goodbyes. Dr Perzak definitely has a gift for assisting pets and their families during this difficult time. I absolutely recommend in home euthanasia and Dr Perzak. She was amazing!

Dr. Perzak is kind, gentle, and understanding. It’s never easy deciding to say goodbye to a pet but having the ability to do it at home instead of in a vets office where your pet may feel uncomfortable is a blessing. Trigger loved Dr. Perzak when she was his primary vet and it was truly comforting for him to wag his tail and be excited to see her again before he left us. The follow up email providing resources was very helpful as well. This is an expensive service but I think it’s well worth the price.

Dr Perzak was beyond wonderful and kind through a most difficult situation. It is never easy to make the decision to let your pet go, but she made it so much easier to deal with. What a treat it was to be able to do this in the comfort of our home with my boys surrounding our beloved Murphy. I highly recommend this service and requesting Dr Perzak to come to your home. I can't say enough about her kindness.

Review by Dr. Deborah Perzak

Dr. Deborah Perzak was so very kind to our family on one of the hardest days of our lives. Our dog was 15 years old and making the decision to let him go was such a hard one to make, but Dr. P was so compassionate and walked us through each step. Seymour passed quickly and I can’t thank Dr.P enough for her kindness and professionalism during the most difficult day.
