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. Glen Jackson was very professional, sincere, and patient with during this difficult time of having our Jake cross over the rainbow.
I really dont think I could have asked for a better experience to help my family through this time. Dr Glenn Jackson was a blessing. He was soft spoken, heartfelt, and made everyone feel comforted while he helped us say goodbye to our 23 year old cat. My children were able to experience this necessary life lesson with Dr Jackson's support and step by step talk through of everything he did with Dax's (our cat) transition into death. If you have the unfortunate need for their services then Dr Glenn Jackson will be the angel you need in that tough time.
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.
Dr. Glenn is an outstanding human and helped provide for a loving, peaceful, transition for our beloved dog. He was patient, kind, explained every step, paused if we needed a moment and asked questions of what our dog was like. Our dog stressed so badly when going to the vet’s that we just couldn’t think of doing that to him on this last day. Fortunately there are people like Dr Glenn who can provide this service where your pet, and you, are most comfortable - at home.
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.
Dr. Jackson was incredibly kind and understanding. I can’t thank him enough for the care he gave to my dearly loved cat and for making the most heartbreaking experience as peaceful as possible.
