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

Last night Dr Perzak cane to my house and was outstanding to work with! She spent a few minutes sitting and speaking with me and petting my wonderful son before the procedure. Coda Pet and Dr P made this completely devastating time as simple and reassuring as possible.

Dr. Perzak was absolutely incredible, she immediately put my whole family at ease with her manner, care, and attentiveness. She was lovely with our son and took time to get to know our sweet cat. I am so grateful for her skill helping our cat pass on with comfort and care. Thank you so very much for being so amazing during such a hard day!

Cannot recommend Dr. Perzak enough. She was kind, compassionate, and let us take all the time we needed with the passing of our dog that we viewed as a family member. The whole process from start to finish was peaceful and in a place where our dog felt most comfortable. 10/10 would recommend- completely worth it.

Dr. Deborah Perzak was the most amazing and professional person to help us process the tragic loss of our beloved pet Stella. She was so comforting and caring during the process. I would highly recommend her services when dealing with such an emotional experience.

It's hard to put into words how I feel right now. All I know is I appreciate Dr Perzak so much. Her kindness and gentle demeanor during this time meant the world to me. What an incredible service she she provides and is so accommodating. Thank you so much.

I requested an urgent visit from Dr. Perzak on a Friday. Her day was full but she was kind enough to come at 7:30 at night. Unfortunately this was the second time we needed her this year. I knew I wanted her to be the one to take care of our sweet Rocky. She is amazing! Kind, compassionate and took excellent care of our dog and my family. I do not have the appropriate words to express my gratitude!!!
