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
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.
Dr. Erin Scaglione was very sympathetic to my emotions and made the process of saying goodbye to my pet a very comfortable experience. I am very grateful for this in home service she offered us.
Dr. Erin was very kind and compassionate. Obviously, putting a beloved pet down is not an easy decision but the process was straightforward. I was very glad I did not have to subject my 20 year old cat to a car ride or vet’s office and that I was able to grieve privately.
My little girl had a stroke or something and could not get up on her own or walk more than a few steps without falling. Since she was always scared and shaking at the vet we decided on in home euthanasia. I called Codapet and scheduled the appointment. The lovely young vet came to our home, tsked to us about Sugars condition. She reassured us that Sugar was in pain as she was crying alot. The vet gave her a tranquilizing shot and she went into a peaceful sleep, then administered the medication that stopped her heart. She then examined her for heartbeat or pulse to make sure it was final and left the room for us to have a private moment with our dog. She came back with a small gurney, wrapped Sugar gently in s blanket and placed her on the gurney to take her away for cremation. The whole process was very dignified and although we were grieving , we were glad she was no longer in pain. I highly recommend it for those who want a peaceful passing of their pet in the comfort and security of their own home.
Dr. Erin was very compassionate and considerate during a difficult time. She was incredibly patient and respectful. We are thankful to have met a kind soul to bring our dog over the rainbow bridge.
