Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Growing up as an animal lover, I always saw myself being a veterinarian. Early in my career I realized that veterinary medicine is more than just animals, it's about the people connected to the animals. As friends, family, and neighbors have increasingly asked for my advice and help in guiding them through end-of-life decisions for their pets, I realized there was a great need for the support that in-home euthanasia can provide. I feel privileged to be able to serve my community in this way.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Jackson came to us on fairly short notice. He was soft spoken, supportive and gave our dog a comfortable and dignified passing in our home. What a blessing it was to have him come and let our dog pass in the place he has been so well loved. I can’t recommend this service enough.

Dr Glenn Jackson was absolutely wonderful; he was so gentle and caring with our Coco (German Shepherd). He even arrived early as she was starting to decline. It was very apparent that he is a very caring individual. We appreciate his kindness!

What a beautiful experience Dr. Glenn brought us, in a very sad moment, when we chose to have our almost 20-year-old cat euthanized at home. As seniors, with an old cat who never liked to go to the vet, we did not want to traumatize the kitty or ourselves with such a trip. First, it was a relief that an in-home pet euthanization could be done. Second, Dr. Glenn was a wonderful person to help us and our cat through this difficult time. His calm, quiet, empathetic manner was a blessing. He carefully explained everything that he was going to do, told us how the cat should respond to each step, and answered every question we had with professionalism and understanding, but also with caring. My wife got to hold the cat, in comfortable, familiar surroundings, while he was tranquillized, and then got the drug “cocktail” that euthanasia involves. Whiskers slipped very peacefully away. We were relieved that he was no longer in any discomfort. It was a very close and touching moment that Dr. Glenn helped us through. Our final moments with our beloved pet assured us that we had done the right thing. For your pet’s comfort and your peace of mind, have no doubt that CodaPet’s program is an excellent choice.

Our first contact with CODAPET and subsequent interaction with Dr. Jackson was a phenomenal experience under very stressful circumstances. Dr. Jackson respectfully and patiently explained things and answered our questions. Dr. Jackson was compassionate, caring and calming, towards us and our Sheba. We thank Dr. Jackson and will never forget him.

The entire euthanization service is excellent from beginning to end. I had been with my Dante for 15 years and he was in terrible pain. I was unable to take him to his regular vet since at this time I am homebound. From the phone call to Dr. Jackson to the crematorium, an excellent job was done. I feel my baby was honored as well as myself and my husband. I love that Dr. Jackson made it possible for my feline son to cross the Rainbow Bridge while I held him in my lap. He knew that I was with him. I feel honored that we had this opportunity and appreciate it more than these, or any, words can say. Thank you so much.
