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 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!
John helped make one of the toughest days of my life just a little easier. He has a genuine compassion for the animals and the grieving pet parents. As we were laying my beloved Loki to rest, my two collies laid down next to him. His peacefulness helped to overcome the stress and grief of the moment. I highly recommend Dr. John Crawford.
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.
Dr. John Crawford from CodaPet was absolutely wonderful and made our experience very manageable and special. He is very kind, gentle, caring, and understanding, which was very helpful during the process. We are very grateful that our experience went so smoothly. I would definitely recommend Dr. Crawford and CodaPet if your pet is suffering.
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. John was so amazing, so compassionate!! Made the what we were going through so much easier. I can't say enough how awesome he was. I have shared his number with all my neighbors and dog loving friends. We will be forever greatfull. Thank you again Dr. Crawford! We will never forget.
