Verified Veterinarian
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 made one of the worst decisions we’ve had to make peaceful. He was extremely attentive and kind through the entire process. We are heartbroken but are thankful for his care.
Dr.Crawford made a hard situation a beautiful experience. He helped our sweet dog Shanti feel comfortable and our family to have the space and time to say goodbye in our home with Shanti in her bed. I couldn’t have asked for a more sensitive and supportive Dr to aid our sweet fur baby on her journey home. Thank you Dr Crawford and Codapet
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!
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.
My family and I are incredibly grateful for Dr. John Crawford. I can’t imagine any other way we could have let our sweet girl of 18 years go. John was beyond empathetic and created an atmosphere of comfort for us and our Dog as she prepared to pass. Please don’t look any further for a euthanasia service, your loved one deserves someone like John to gift them their most comfortable last moments. Thanks again John, your service is invaluable 🙏🏼
Dr. Crawford was gentle caring and understanding while we were in the middle of a tough situation. Our fur baby was able to transition to see his sister again peacefully while giving us comfort during the process. Would definitely recommend 10/10 Dr. Crawford!
