A client said to me 'You must hate your job.' I explained that I'm here for you and your Family during one of your greatest times of need. Bringing comfort, peace, and ending suffering is a wonderful service we can offer our four-legged Family members. Households frequently comment they felt a huge relief, like the weight of worry and concern was removed, knowing they did everything possible. They also appreciated saying goodbye in their own home, to grieve in private, and that CodaPet handled all the arrangements. Bringing this comfort, peace, and calm to the community is my ‘why.’

"John was amazing. He's a warm person and a gentle soul. For each step of the process he waited patiently until we were ready to proceed. Highly recommend him and at home euthanasia for your pet."
He was very charismatic and welcoming to both our dogs, even offering a treat. He was very approachable and respectful to us. It really made the process a lot easier for us and felt it was okay to cry in front of him. I'd recommend him to others if needed. Thank you again!
This morning we said goodbye to our almost 16 yr old dog, Maya. We chose to have this done at home with our family, friends and other pet and it was the best decision for all of us. Dr John Crawford was amazing and put us all at ease the moment he walked into our house. His gentle demeanor and kindness to our girl helped us know that we’d made the right decision. We were able to talk a with him about our relationship, history and feelings about our pet and also this final chapter. When the time came, it was all so peaceful and calm. John is the ultimate professional in how he handled all aspects of the process but also made us feel like we were the only ones in his world today. I would highly recommend John to anyone who needs the perfect best friend for your pet’s final journey.
Beyond thankful for Dr Crawford- an Angel on earth. Words can’t describe his genuine compassion. There is nothing he could have done any better. (Never said that about a vet). His professional skills, combined with calming energy n thoughtful care put myself n my girl at ease. Exactly what we needed at such a delicate time. Sincere appreciation for absolutely everything ❤️
I felt God sent Dr Crawford to us during this difficult time. He was such a patient, kind, professional with just a calm demeanor. I’ve never met anyone like him and have already recommended him to a friend who is waiting for the right time to say goodbye for her older dog. I hope I can use him in the future with my other two dogs. He’s the very best person for this job. I can’t say enough good about him!!"
I recently had to make the incredibly difficult decision to say goodbye to my beloved cat, Leo, and I'm so grateful that I found John Crawford for in-home pet euthanasia. John was incredibly kind and thoughtful throughout the process, showing deep respect and empathy for Leo and me. His gentle approach and compassion made a world of difference, and being able to say goodbye to Leo at home, rather than in a sterile vet's office, brought so much comfort. John provided Leo with the dignity, care, and peace he deserved, and I couldn’t be more thankful for his presence during such a difficult time. If you're facing this heartbreaking decision, I highly recommend John for his warmth and professionalism."
