Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I always knew that animals made such an impact on my heart and caring for them would have to a big part of my life. I followed that dream and became a veterinarian. It is such a privilege to be able to give a pet a peaceful passing and to help their people through that time. Doing this in the comfort of their own home makes it even more special.

What pet parents are saying
We made the difficult choice to say goodbye to our 15-year-old cat Leo who had developed an aggressive cancer, and I'm so glad we went with Coda and Dr. Erin. I began looking into at-home pet euthanasia options when Leo's health took a turn. Traveling to the vet was always a stressful experience for him, and that's not how I wanted his last moments to feel. Dr. Erin was unbelievably kind and compassionate, both toward Leo and us. She walked us through the process of sedation and then the final injection, helped us pick a comfortable location, gave Leo some final treats, and then began the process. It was very quick - only a few minutes - but it was peaceful, exactly the experience we wanted for our little guy. After Leo passed, Dr. Erin gave us some time alone to say goodbye. She then wrapped him in a blanket within a basket and carried him out, looking like he was taking a nice nap. I have absolutely no regrets and it made a challenging moment so much easier - I highly recommend this option and specifically Dr. Erin.
Dr Erin was wonderful during a very difficult time for our family. !!!! She was caring, kind , sympathetic, during a very sad time when we had to say goodbye to our LOVED kitty Sylvester. She gave us comfort and understood our grief. I recommend her service when you struggle making that difficult decision for the LOVE on your pet ❤️

Would not recommend this platform. Serious nickel and dime fees including undisclosed fees that get tacked on AFTER you agreed to pay. Suddenly when you get your invoice you have undisclosed fees for shipping for example. In the photo attached, I have blacked out my information but you notice that they have NO disclosure of that in the total price when you enter your credit card. Also AFTER entering my credit card and AGREEING to the charges, they tack on tax which they make no mention about. On top of that they provide the least amount of service compared to other options. This is PLUS a travel fee, a platform fee and then if you want ANYTHING - a paw print, an urn, etc its is EXTRA. This is UNLIKE any other mobile pet euthanasia offering which bundles or includes bare minimums. Its a bait and switch here when AFTER you have already PUT YOUR PET DOWN, they start adding UNDISCOLSED fees. Will be reporting to the AG of my state. Would NOT recommend.
We were devastated when it became time to say goodbye to our sweet dog, Harley, but Dr. Erin's kindness, compassion, and professionalism made this incredibly difficult moment a little more bearable. From the moment she arrived, Dr. Erin's gentle approach and understanding nature reassured us that Harley was in good hands. She took the time to explain the entire process to us in a calm and empathetic way, answering all of our questions and helping us understand what to expect. She made sure that Harley was comfortable and at peace, and she treated him with such tenderness, making sure he was never in pain. It was clear that Dr. Erin truly cares for animals, and her presence helped us feel supported in our grief. Saying goodbye is never easy, but we will always be grateful to Dr. Erin for helping us through this heartbreaking moment with so much dignity and love for our beloved pet. Thank you for your professionalism and for showing so much kindness during one of the hardest times of our lives.
