We opted with home euthanasia and was not disappointed at all. From the beginning to end, Dr Gary was very professional, very kind and very supportive through this difficult decision. He sat on the floor where our dog was and proceeded the procedure where our dog was not comfortable. Dr Gary gave stepped outside to give us time to grieve. I definitely would recommend him!

I want to thank Dr. Gary Hsia and CodaPet for their kindness and professionalism with helping me through the passing of my beloved little dog, Miley. Dr. Gary was so kind and sensitive to my needs and wishes in the transitioning of Miley. He understood my sorrow and took extra care in taking me through the process. I truly recommend CodaPet with the home care and handling of our beloved pets. Respectfully, Jean Caiazza

Dr. Gary Hsia was extremely hands on with us. Our girl was young and initially he gave us some dietary and medical assistance to try and alleviate her struggle somewhat and prolong her life. He even went into my pantry and helped me with her dietary requirements. In spite of this follow through not helping her circumstances, I appreciate that he gave me an opportunity to truly say I had tried everything and that putting her down was the correct thing to do. When he returned on his next visit. He was calm; spoke soothingly (out of respect for my girl.) Made sure she was lying comfortably and gave us time to say goodbye. He was well prepared for every step of the procedure. The aftercare has also been fantastic. We received a beautiful card from him and the overall communication through texting has been very good. I am so glad that my girl got to spend her last minutes around people at home and with a doctor who cared.

Deciding to have my cat euthanized at home instead of bringing him to a clinic was a very positive and peaceful experience during a sad and difficult time. I'm very grateful to Dr. Gary for his caring and gentle approach he provided my cat. Dr. Gary explained the process and answered my questions with heartfelt patience. He provided me the time and space I need to say my good byes. This experience was less stressful for both myself and my cat than having to go to a clinic. I will definitely use Dr. Gary's services again if and when needed in the future.

Dr. Gary was so kind, compassionate, and patient with us throughout the entire process. I am so glad we chose to utilize Dr. Gary and allow our family dog to enjoy his last rest where he was most comfortable, surrounded by all those who were impacted by him. I would recommend this route to all pet owners who are faced with having to make this difficult decision.

Dr. Gary was so very kind and compassionate. We got to be with our cat, Daisy, in one of her favorite spots of our home. Dr. Gary gave took us through the process, then gave us the time we needed with Daisy before he administered the sedative, then again before he administered the final shot, and after. We got to cuddle with her the whole time. He took Daisy's body away and his wife returned with her ashes. The company that they work with included two river rocks with Daisy's name on them that were with her when she was cremated and are a perfect size to hold in your hand. We also got the keepsake of Daisy's paw in clay, which was very nicely done, however we wouldn't get that again as it doesn't look like her paw to us (due to the nature of how much bigger a paw looks when pressed into clay). We liked the inked paw prints on a card that Daisy and I made together the day before. We very much appreciate how patient, kind, and compassionate Dr. Gary was and that this service was available for our beloved cat.

Dr. Gary was so kind, patient and considerate in discussing our sweet Zoey's (15 years) medical situation, answering questions and helping me to arrive at the most devastating but kindest decision for her. I am so very grateful that she was able to pass peaceably at home with me at her side. Dr. Gary also made time to hand-deliver Zoey's cremains to our family, giving us some comfort and closure. Thank you so much, Dr. Gary.

Dr. Hsia was amazing. He asked questions and evaluated our dog to confirm she was ready to go. He was patient, kind and clearly cared about our pet. He gave us and our other dogs time with her before and after, and showed great care when he took her with him. About a week later he brought us a beautiful box with her ashes. Was such a relief to have her comfortable at home with her family around and not have to go back to the vet office. Thank you!!

As our large breed dog entered his senior years we knew when the day came we wanted an at home euthanasia option. The day came where he could not get up on his own so we reached out to Dr. Gary. Dr. Gary was professional, patient, and considerate the entire way through. He discussed my dog's health with great care. He never once rushed any step of the process, allowing me to decide when I was ready for the next step. Letting our dog go was the most painful thing I have ever had to do, but with the aid of Dr. Gary I believe it was a gift to our sweet boy. He was home, in his bed, with his toys, cuddled up with mom.

Dr. Gary Hsia showed empathy and compassion when we had to make the heartbreaking decision of putting our 13-year old pug out of his pain/suffering from cancer. Dr. Hsia handled Rocky with much care and attention to his every detail and need. The experience of being able to provide love and comfort for Rocky in his own home by utilizing this method made this already difficult experience of his passing, just a little bearable. The card and the delivery of Rocky's remains made it personal. - Thank you Dr. Hsia (and Bethany) - Jodi W.

Making the choice to do at home pet euthanasia was incredibly difficult; having to choose to say goodbye to my dog was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, but CodaPet made the whole process smooth and comforting for not just our Red but for our whole family as well. Dr.Gary was incredibly kind and compassionate, explaining the process thoroughly and giving us however much time we needed to send Red off. We were able to shower him with love and hold him in his final moments. We miss him so much, but I am certain he is truly at peace. Thank you so much to Dr.Gary and CodaPet.

It’s always hard making the decision to put down your dog. Unfortunately this wasn’t my first time. Normally I also do not write reviews but my experience with Dr. Hsia will be a lasting one. Macy our 12 year old family dog got to eat scrambled eggs for breakfast and steak for lunch. All 3 of our other dogs got to lay next to her as the doctor did his thing.

We recently used Dr. Gary to bid farewell to my beloved dog, Monkey. This dog was THE best dog (everyone says it and everyone is right). He saw me through every moment of my adult life- joy, trauma, sickness, and grief- and I was adamant that he have the best possible experience to cross the rainbow bridge. He deserved the world and more, so in my soul I felt certain that in home euthanasia would be the best option for his comfort. I underestimated what a truly peaceful, stress-free experience it would be. Dr. Gary was incredibly kind, patient, and professional, and truly cared for Monkey’s comfort from beginning to end. Opting to put Monkey down in the comfort of his home and his mama’s lap alleviated so much anxiety for our dog, and for each member of our family. Dr. Bethany was equally lovely to work with when she returned our boy’s ashes to us. I would recommend this service, and Dr. Gary and Dr. Bethany, to anyone who has to make the gut-wrenching decision to bid farewell to their pet.

Dr Gary was so kind and gentle with our sweet Lola. From the moment he came to our front door, he made sure we knew he was there for as long as we needed him to be. Never in a hurry, Dr Gary allowed us to spend as much time as we needed to comfort our baby and love on her. The manner in which he delivered his care was professional and dignified. We definitely recommend home euthanasia, because although difficult for us to say our last goodbyes, Lola had us with her for her last breath. In her bed, in her home. We received emails and texts for a few days after from Codapet and that really helped us with the grieving process.
