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.

What pet parents are saying

We needed to say goodbye to our 13.5 y/o dog, Chloe, at home. She declined very quickly between Christmas & NY & could no longer walk. We were afraid the holiday would cause delays, & didn't want her to suffer. CodaPet made the process much easier by having Vet credentials & appt times posted. Hard as it is to say goodbye, doing so at home was so much better. Dr. Katharyn Hart was extremely professional, patient, & compassionate. Highly recommend this service.

Unfortunately we had to use this service twice in a short amount of time. Dr. Katharyn Hart was our first caregiver for our boy, Wrango and Dr. Lori Thomas was our caregiver for our old gal, Shyloh. They both showed an amazing amount of compassion with our pups, were patient with us as we went through the experience and were so thoughtful in answering any questions we had. They both made the experience very peaceful for all involved and though we were/are heartbroken, knowing that our pups were in the hands of these 2 vets, made it a bit better.

Dr Hart was compassionate and held space on such a difficult day. Her immediate response to me was much appreciated when I reached out late at night for a next morning appointment. Thank you, Dr. Hart!!! We appreciate you!!

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.
