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

She was as sweet and comforting with our Indy as he was with all whom he met when he was still here. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. ❤️

Dr. Perzak was a calming presence during the euthanasia of my sweet puppy. She was professional and did not rush us through the process. As painful as this decision was for me, I'm glad we were able to do it in the comfort of our home where our pup could be relaxed and not anxious in her final moments.

The kindness and compassion for our sweet Molly and our family Dr. Perzak shared made a very difficult time bearable. Fortunately we haven't had to go through this before and really were apprehensive and torn about the decision. Having Molly at home surrounded by her family and her furry siblings let us know without a doubt we had an angel with us in Dr Perzak. Thank you

We are grateful that CodaPet made the difficult process of saying goodbye to our father's dog peaceful. Dr. Perzak was very compassionate; she stayed in touch with us prior to the appointment, answered all our questions and addressed our concerns, and was patient and caring during the process. Bear hated the vet's office, so it was wonderful to avoid that trauma and allow him to stay in his familiar home surrounded by love from his pack and family.

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!!!

Review by Dr. Deborah Perzak

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.
