Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
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.’

What pet parents are saying
"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."
Dr John Crawford was the kindest person during a time our world was falling apart. He made the transition for our boy Boo easy. We are shattered by Boo’s passing, as the decision was extremely hard to make. And I needed the extra piece that Dr Crawford gave us, as we were making the right call. Thank you for your caring on one of the worse days our lives. Kindness matters.
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."
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!
Dr. Crawford was very kind and compassionate. He made a very difficult situation easier to handle and we were very grateful to have him guiding us through the process.
Dr. Crawford was absolutely amazing. We were having a very difficult time and he was extremely patient and empathetic. He made us and our dog feel so at ease. I really cannot say enough good things about him.
