What pet parents are saying
Dr. Gersten made such an emotional and traumatic event flawless and loving. She is a gentle soul who understands what both the pets and parents are going through. She is the best!
Dr. Diana Gersten came to our home to help our pup, Thor, cross over the rainbow bridge. She's professional, compassionate and down-to-earth. She made this sad experience the best we could have hoped for. I highly recommend using her.
I truly appreciate having an in-home euthanasia option when faced with a suffering pet. I liked the CodaPet electronic intake form because I didn’t have to struggle through that process telephonically, struggling through my tears and sobbing. I was offered an opportunity to discuss directly with Dr Gersten the day I booked the appointment and appreciated that so much. We connected the morning of my appointment again at my request and she was great and communicative. I’ve sadly been through this before but when she arrived she made sure she let us know what to expect and was very skilled with my pup, Roxie and informed and supported us as we comforted Roxie throughout. I had selected private cremation during the intake process and she confirmed my selections, even crediting a duplicate selection I had made and paid for. It made this heart wrenching need easier and let my Roxie breathe her last breath, and her heart to beat its last beat in the peace of our home while we held and comforted her for the last time. Thank you. We’re very appreciative of everything.
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. Gersten was extremely kind, patient and compassionate during the entire process. I felt very comfortable with her and the way she carefully explained everything. My expectations were exceeded today when I received my memorial package. I will definitely recommend Coda Pet and Dr. Gersten to family and friends!
Calling Dr. Gersten to come to my home to help my fur baby girl pass was the best thing I could have done. I didn’t want to go to the vet, it is too stressful on you and your pet. Dr. Gersten was caring, kind and empathetic. I was able to be with my girl in her last moments in my home where she was comfortable and I could let my grief show. I will always be grateful to Dr. Gersten for allowing me to let Abbie go with dignity and love, once again thank you Dr. Gersten💕
