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.

My husband and I are so grateful for Dr Delia. She came to our home on a very rainy Sunday afternoon to help us say goodbye to our 15 1/2 year old chihuahua terrier. Her kindness and compassion helped us give Maggie the respectful goodbye she deserved. Dr Delia gently explained everything to us, answered all of our questions and allowed us the time we needed with each step. We are so thankful for Dr Delia. She will always be an important piece of Maggie’s story.

Our dog Char was dying of thyroid cancer and we came to the difficult decision to let her go. We were worried about the process and thought maybe we would be questioned by the vet regarding our decision. Dr Delia was so sympathetic and kind and gave us the support that we needed. Dr Delia made sure we understood everything and had time to ask questions. She made sure that Char’s passing was the most comfortable way possible. I would recommend Dr Delia to anyone that is looking into at home euthanasia for their beloved pet.

In such a difficult time for our family, I'm glad we found Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald. She is such a kind and compassionate person and really took the time to show honor and respect to our Hunter boy in his final moments. She gave all the details and information in a caring manner and took her time to provide comfort and support to our family. If you have to make the tough decision to help your pet family cross the rainbow bridge, I highly recommend Dr. Delia. Rest in Peace Our Sweet Hunter!!!! You are deeply missed ❤️

Dr Delia Gregory-Macdonald was amazing. Unfortunately, we have had a couple of experiences with in-home euthanasia and am actually glad I never heard back from our previous provider. It has now been 5 days and I've yet to hear back from our previous provider. Dr. Delia was so kind and caring. She immediately put myself, husband and adult son at ease while going through this incredibly painful task. She was very focused on easing our distress and making sure that our Zeke was not suffering. The whole experience was easy. I found CodaPet via google, explained my needs, put in my info and they matched us with Dr. Delia who was able to come to the house the following day. She started communicating with me right away and would have come sooner if it was needed, if our doggo was declining faster. Really cant say enough great things about Dr Delia and CodaPet.
