Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Becoming a veterinarian was a lifelong dream. I have always felt solace around animals. I understood as a child that animals are amazing - not because they are like us - but because they are like themselves. I am deeply committed to helping people understand what their beloved pet is experiencing and when (and how) to say goodbye. I feel called to do this work - to stand next to people as they navigate the beautiful heartache that comes from loving creatures we outlive. I see the best of people every day - as they break their hearts and heal their hearts. I am motivated by the love I see - the tenderness - the mercy.

What pet parents are saying

Knowing what the best decision is in this situation can be stressful and overwhelming. Our vet referred me to CodaPet which hooked us up with Dr. Delia. Dr. Delia arrived with a professional warmth and comforting energy that we appreciate so much. She felt like family. Providing this at home service for our pup (and ourselves) was 100%, no doubt the best decision and it makes us feel at peace. Thank you Dr. Delia for simply being you.

Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald is an angel on Earth. The time came to put down our 13 year old family dog. I wanted this to be done in the familiar comfort of our home. Dr Delia came to our house shortly after I reached out. She was kind and compassionate and made Mia’s transition calm, pain free and peaceful. She is an amazing human and is excellent at what she does. I am so grateful. Thank you so much Dr Delia.

Thank you so much for your compassion, words of comfort, and tremendous support on Tuesday morning as we said goodbye to our sweet lady Dallas. She will always hold such a special place in our hearts. We are so grateful to you for holding our hands through such a difficult process.

Review by Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald

Dr. Delia was amazing during this really sad time for us. Having to put down our sweet doggie Callie after 16 years, was so difficult. Dr. Delia was kind and compassionate. She explained everything and confirmed that we were doing the right thing. It was a blessing having her come to our home, which made it so much easier for all of us, especially Callie. Thank you so much Dr. Delia!

I'll forever be grateful for my experience with Dr. Delia- she was patient, compassionate, and an incredible container for what I anticipated to be an overwhelmingly painful appointment. She was thorough in guiding me through the experience, was respectful and open to all of my questions throughout, and gave my dog the gift of dignity and warmth in his final moments.

Review by Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald

Dr. Delia was extremely compassionate. She sat with us and had a cup of tea, which allowed our dog, Penny, to settle and relax. It also gave us the opportunity to discuss Penny’s health and our decision—something we had been struggling with. We knew it was the right decision for Penny, but speaking with Dr. Delia helped us make peace with it. When it was time to say goodbye to Penny, everything was gentle and calm. We couldn’t have hoped for a more peaceful goodbye. Thank you, Dr. Delia, for your compassion and for making Penny’s final moments so peaceful.
