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
Phenomenal experience in an exceptionally hard time. Dr P was so very compassionate and caring. We could not have asked for a better experience to say goodbye to our precious kitty of 16 yrs. We’ve had to say goodbye to pets before, but having such a warm and loving person help you thru the process at home is the best possible way. Highly recommend Dr P.
What an amazing experience during a time that was so difficult! My sweet Bentley was able to have a stress free transition being loved and held through it all! She was amazing!
Dr. Perzak of Codapet was warm, caring and helped us through the loss of our beloved Cobie. This is a wonderful service for us pet owners who don't want to put our babies through any more stress by dragging them to an office. Highly recommended.
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 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!
Dr Perzak had been taking care of our cat for many years prior to leaving her practice. She was well aware of our cat and our family and knew our decision was not easy to make.
