Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Our pets are one of the few constants in our life. They play such a grounding role for us, with their unconditional love and support. It is truly the last loving decision we can make as their caretakers to help them pass peacefully, with dignity and respect. As a veterinarian that has helped with end-of-life care both in home and in a clinic, I see the many great benefits for families and their pets with the privacy of in-home services, where both are the most comfortable and relaxed in their own environment.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Jessica Mumm is wonderful. On one of the hardest days, she gave us comfort in our decision to put our LOVELY Layla to rest. It was devastating we had to make this choice but she was comforting, helpful and respectful. She made the process about as peaceful as it can be. She was very gentle and understanding. We thank her for her help. We would recommend her to anyone who is going through a similar situation.
Our dog Nikki was struggling with arthritis and started quickly deteriorating to the point she couldn't stand up or walk anymore. We decided to pursue in home pet euthanasia so she could be as comfortable as possible. Dr. Mumm was very supportive through the whole process and would explain everything she did before taking any action, so it didn't feel rushed or confusing at all. She excused herself several times to give us space to be with Nikki until we decided it was time to say goodbye. I cannot thank her enough for the service she provided us in our most difficult time.
This was a beautiful experience. Dr. Mumm was so kind, took the time to get to know our pup but also our other pup, spoke gently and talked through everything in advance. For our senior pup who hated getting in the car, this was a much nicer way to say goodbye to her.
This was the best possible choice for saying goodbye to our pet. Jessica is very informative, compassionate, gentle, humane and loving to both the pet and the humans! We needed someone to come out to our house right away. Jessica bent her schedule to fit us in at the last moment. She offered us options for afterwards, including take away of your loved one and help with deciding what to do with their remains. In our case it includes delivery to our vet when our cats ashes are ready to come home. She gave us a paw print of our kitty and a few other things. This was my kids first pet and my first time having to do this, so it was especially hard for us. I was very nervous and scared. This was perfect for our situation and for helping my kids go through it. I have already told a few people about our experience. I hope this place thrives and continues to do the great work they do. It takes a very special person to do this service. Thank you!
We recently had to say goodbye to our beloved dog, Wilson, and chose in-home euthanasia so he could be comfortable in his favorite place. Wilson was quirky, special, and so very loveable. Dr. Jessica Mumm came into our home and showed such kindness, patience, and empathy throughout the entire process. She treated Wilson with the utmost compassion and dignity, and she gave us the space and support we needed during such a difficult moment. Her gentle presence made an incredibly hard day just a little bit easier. We are so grateful for the care she provided to both Wilson and our family.
We knew it was time to say goodbye to our dear pup Mango and Dr. Mumm was the most kind and considerate person to be with us for our in-home pet euthanasia. We had the time to tell stories and be together in the comfort of our home, so it wasn't scary for Mango. She helped him gently fall asleep and then when we were ready, she helped him peacefully be euthanized. This is never an easy life event to process and accept, but Dr. Mumm and CodaPet made it about Mango and us and we are so thankful we found her!
