What pet parents are saying

Dr. Gersten provides a get service! She came in and took her time explaining the process there was no rush to start. I had time with my baby to get comfortable with the situation and time with him after it was done as well. The cremation service was wonderful too. I love the box/urn it has his name and paw print engraved, clay print and lock of hair. Strongly recommend!

Dr. Diana Gersten was absolutely amazing. She was so kind and caring during the entire process. I had no idea CodaPet existed and I am so thankful I found them. The afterlife services they provided were exceptional and I was able to bring my best friend back home to his final resting place.

We could not have asked for a better way to honor our Kaos, she was so respectful and kind to our feelings and did the most to make sure we felt informed and supported to help him transition to the rainbow bridge 🌈 thank you so much ❤️

Dr. Diana Gersten was absolutely wonderful. She was very responsive through text message, and helped me make the tough decision of putting my sweet kitty boy to rest. Her presence was very calming and she explained everything as she did it. She gave us as much time as we needed to love and kiss on him before she took him. She delivered his body to Monarch Pet Memorial Services where they did an absolutely beautiful job memorializing my baby. Thank you Dr. Gersten for making an awful situation bearable, and for your kindness, compassion, and patience with me.

Very professional and full of empathy. Made a horrible situation as nice as possible. Will never take a cat out of the comfort of their home again. Lovely service.
