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.’

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.
"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."
When the time came for our final goodbye to our beloved pet, we decided in home pet euthanasia was our best option. We found Dr. Crawford online through CodaPet. CodaPet’s online scheduling made the process easy when talking about it was difficult. CodaPet’s website explained the process and contained information to answer all of our questions. Dr. Crawford’s compassion and calming demeanor was very helpful. We were given as much time as needed to say our goodbyes. I highly recommend Dr. Crawford and CodaPet.
I cannot express enough how grateful we are for the exceptional care and kindness we received from Dr. Crawford. From the moment we walked into our home, it was clear that he truly cares about his patients and their families. His compassion and support went above and beyond, making a challenging time much easier to handle. Dr. Crawford took the time to answer all our questions and provided thoughtful, attentive care. We truly appreciate his unwavering kindness and the genuine concern he showed for our beloved pet. Thank you so much for everything!
Dr. Crawford was a gift to us in our final moments with our sweet boy. This was me and my partners first dog together, our first child! Dr. Crawford is one of the most emphatic people I’ve ever met. I could tell instantly his respect for our grief and his care for our dog. Not only did he perform the in home pet euthanasia, informing us every step of the way, but he was very compassionate towards our grief. Dr. Crawford took his time and even asked if we needed more time with our dog. We were comforted knowing our dog did not have to move from his own home and bed before he passed. He was able to finally be relaxed like the good ole young days and we were able to say goodbye again while he was without pain before he was officially euthanized. This has to be the hardest job in the world and we are beyond grateful we chose Dr. Crawford.
He was amazing. We can’t thank him enough for the kindness and overwhelming support while our sweet Bentlee boy was taking his journey over the rainbow bridge. Thank you so much again Dr. Crawford!!
