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

As hard as it was to say good bye to nico, Dr Jackson was fantastic. I would highly recommend home euthanasia. Not only was I comfortable so was my family and nico. I couldn't of asked for a more peaceful way to say good bye. I cant thank them enough for helping us through a difficult time.

Dr Glenn Jackson was truly such a kind gentle person, I couldn’t have picked anyone better to help us through a terribly difficult time. Right off the get go made me and my partner feel comfortable with him. He went above and beyond and even sent us a kind card a few weeks after. I cannot recommend these services enough. Thank you!

Dr. Jackson is an incredibly compassionate human being and I'm so very grateful for him and everyone at CodaPet. Not only did he drive quite literally hours away to help us when no one else nearby had time to do so, he could not have been more kind. When he arrived for my sweet elderly kitty's euthanasia appointment, he saw me kneeling by the couch holding my baby, and immediately met me where I was and knelt down with me. He did a thorough exam and let me know he agreed that this was the right choice for my boy. He was sympathetic as I cried my heart out, and didn't rush me to move forward even though it was late in the evening. He made it possible for me to give my sweetheart the most peaceful passing in a place he loved, surrounded by people who loved him. Afterward, I even got the sweetest handwritten sympathy card. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Jackson and this group of folks. Thank you so very much, from the bottom of my heart.

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.
