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.’

Dr. Crawford is exceptional! He came to our home and treated Shrek with kindness comfort and care. He showed compassion and kindness. He also brought Shrek back to us personally. We felt like he was part of our family. If I could give 100 stars I would. Thank you Dr. Crawford we will forever be grateful to you.
Dr Crawford was extremely caring and kind. He allowed me the space and time I needed to say my last good byes. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.
Dr. John Crawford is truly an exceptional veterinarian—compassionate, patient, and deeply caring. He helped my beloved dog, Dada, pass peacefully, guiding me through one of the most difficult moments of my life with such kindness and understanding. His gentle approach made all the difference, and I will always be grateful for the care he provided. He went above and beyond by thoughtfully making sure I had Dada’s paw print, even hand-delivering it. That level of kindness speaks volumes about his dedication to both his patients and their families. Dr. Crawford is an absolute angel—God-sent during such a heartbreaking time. He is not only a skilled professional but also a genuinely kindhearted person. Anyone lucky enough to have him as their vet will be in the best hands. Thank you, John, for everything!
The vet we chose was Dr. John Crawford . He was absolutely fantastic. Compassionate and kind and made our horrible circumstance tolerable. Our German Shepherd Zeus was a very large dog, with a little help from myself John was totally prepared for the removal process. If this review reaches you and this guy is in your area look no farther . This is who you are looking for. Thanks again John you won’t be forgotten.
"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."
I have no words for how gentle and kind Dr. Crawford was with our Enzo as he passed. It was one of the hardest days of our lives but Dr. Crawford made us all feel comfortable and secure. His respect for our pet was so apparent, and he passed in such a beautiful way. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience during such a tragic ordeal.
