Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
Growing up as early as about 13 years old I loved animals and wanted to work with them to some capacity as part of my career. Once starting college I obtained a job as a veterinary technician assistant and the rest is history. I never saw myself offering In Home Euthanasia as a career within this profession, although a big part of my job on a day to day basis is performing this procedure. It was only after being able to perform this on my own pet in my own home that I was awakened with the huge difference it made and the comfort it offered both myself, my family and my passing pet. After experiencing this I wanted to ensure others in my area had an option like this as this service is not offered in the area I live. I am happy to do so and look forward to allowing other pet parents to benefit from the service.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Williams was just wonderful! Very compassionate and kind to both the humans and animals. He explained the process clearly and carried every step out with such gentleness. I so appreciate him and how he carried out a very difficult but necessary service.
DR. JOSH WAS MORE THAN I ANTICIPATED. IN FACT JUST GETTING THIS EMAIL IS MAKING ME CRY. I MISS HER SO MUCH. HE WAS COMPASSIONATE AND MADE THIS SAD TIME MORE BEARABLE. I APPRECIATED HIM WITH ALL MY HEART. THANK YOU DR.WILLIAMS. I COULD NOT ASK OR PRAY FOR ANY FINER VET! I'VE NEVER HAD AN AT HOME EUTHANASIA AND I'M SO GLAD I DID. I STILL CRY OVER LOSING HER ALMOST EVERY DAY SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. ANNIE WAS SUCH A GOOD GIRL AND WENT THROUGH SOME UNBEARABLE PAIN. I'M SO GRATEFUL SHE IS NOW IN HEAVEN WAITING FOR ME. GOD BLESS YOU DR. WILLIAMS.
I had been dreading the day I’d have to say goodbye to my sweet girl for a while, between being worried that a vet wouldn’t believe me when I said she was ready and just knowing what the rushed process of having this done in a vet clinic is like. I could not be more grateful to have found Dr. Josh. He was a huge answer to prayer. As others have said, he is very gentle and kind and doesn’t bring an inappropriately high energy to the situation. He let us take our time, he throughly walked us through everything that would happen, and most importantly to me, he reassured us that we were making the right decision for our girl. He even got down on the floor to talk to my grieving toddler and explain that our girl was ready and answered his questions. Losing my girl was so incredibly painful, but Dr. Josh provided us with the best experience we could have had. We got to be in her favorite room in the house by an open window so she could breathe the warm, fresh air while lying on her softest bed in my arms as she fell asleep. No rush, no noise of other pets/people around us, and no having to walk to a front desk afterward to pay the bill while barely holding it together. Dr. Josh’s care for every pet he meets is obvious, and I would highly recommend him and his services to anybody who is needing to help their beloved fur babies cross over to the rainbow bridge!
My experience was a mixed bag of emotions. My Labrador Kiwi was the most amazing, loyal, intelligent, affectionate, playful, beautiful chocolate puppy. She took pieces of my heart and soul with her and I will forever miss her. I am grateful to have had an option to assist her transition in such a peaceful way. She was able to be out on the lawn on her favorite bed, surrounded by her favorite toys, eating bacon with the sun in her face. Love you, miss you Kiwi❤️
Dr. Josh Williams was so supportive and kind. He reached out multiple times after I connected with CodaPet to affirm my choices and help provide professional education regarding my dog's condition and what I was trying to process and comprehend. He truly made this experience easier and knowing how much he cared made all the difference to our family. Thank you, Dr. Williams.
Dr. Josh is kind, compassionate and very reliable. He helped our family dog transition over the rainbow bridge in the most gentle way. If you want to be home when your fur baby is ready to cross over, Dr. Josh is the guy to call!
