Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I decided that becoming a vet was my calling at a very young age after I became obsessed with horses, cats, and dogs. I determined early on that becoming a vet would be the best way to spend my days with animals. As a veterinarian, I have had the opportunity to euthanize my own animals at home and felt like that was the best gift I could give them. Knowing how much it meant to my own pets helped me to realize the importance of giving pets a peaceful passing at home.

Dr. Hart was very nice and showed true compassion towards my sad decision to let my beloved fur baby Darla go. We both knew it was time. Quite professional! Thank you for being so kind. Geri Seay

Our dog Zelda just declined so quickly. It was so nice to be able to do this at home, her happy place, her home. Dr Hart was just so lovely and caring and helpful during this time. And a week later, our pups ashes are home with us. Thank you for helping us Dr Hart.

Dr. Hart was very kind and compassionate when she was in our home. She explained each step thoroughly and gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes. I would highly recommend her if you need to say goodbye to your pet.

Dr. Hart was compassionate and skilled in easing our sweet Ellie Mae through the end of her life. We will be forever grateful to her and CodaPet for making it possible for us to say goodbye to her in our home.
