Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Having provided end of life care to my own pets both in a hospital setting and at home with their family, I've experienced first hand the difference an at-home euthanasia makes to everyone involved. I am committed to helping pets and their families have as stress-free, dignified, and peaceful passing as possible.

What pet parents are saying

I had to make the very difficult decision to put my sweet pup dog Ava to rest. She was diagnosed with a mammary tumor back in July 2024. I searched around for a local in home euthanasia and scheduled with Dr. Kelly Neri. I then canceled early that morning hoping I could have one last weekend. Unfortunately she wasn't able to keep any food or water down and I contacted Dr. Kelly late Friday near midnight. I'll forever be grateful to you for going out of your way late on a cold night to help Ava finally be at piece without suffering. Thank you again for you and your son being so kind and compassionate during one of my hardest days having to say goodbye.

Our connection with Dr Neir was one of compassion and empty. Our initial contact was to address any questions we had as a family . When arriving to the house her first thoughts were for Naboo to make sure we kept her as come, relaxed reducing any anxiety knowing that there would be someone new in the house. Dr Neir first engaged with Naboo and said we could take a much time as needed for us and Naboo. This was very comforting for our family and wants to thank Dr Neri for keep such good care of Naboo in this time. Thank you for being kind and thinking of our family with the steps you took to make this a peaceful transfer. The Pecks

I'm so thankful for the service that CodaPet provides. Dr. Neri was gentle and empathetic. I'm grateful that I was able to give my nearly 15yo Paisley a peaceful passing in our home. Thank you, Dr Kelly Neri, I'm so appreciative of your kind heart!

Very nice experience. It was difficult to administer the sedation and euthanasia but Dr. Neri did it. It was difficult to let go but she made it easier.

Review by Dr. Kelly Neri

Dr. Kelly Neri was so kind and compassionate. She was immensely patient with my wife and I. Dr. Neri let us take the time to play with Annie before starting the process, which she was also very patient throughout. After the euthanasia, she let us spend extra time holding Annie, getting some of her prints, and letting us say some final words before removing her from the home. Dr. Neri was truly attentive and gentle, and overall helped us get through this unbearable situation.

I am very thankful for Dr. Kelly and providing a service to come to my home for us and Daisy. She was extremely professional and warm as she helped guide us through the process and giving us the space to say goodbye.
