Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

At a previous practice, Dr. Wasmoen was able to provide in-home euthanasia services to a limited degree. It didn’t take long to realize that while these services are of vital importance, they were in short supply. Dr. Wasmoen was drawn to provide this type of care to allow families to say goodbye to their beloved companions in a familiar, loving, and private environment which can make a world of difference in these difficult situations. CodaPet in particular allows veterinarians to tailor patient care to individual pets and provides the ability to service many communities, extending the option for a peaceful in-home goodbye sometimes outside the range of other veterinary providers.

What pet parents are saying

The whole process, while extremely difficult for us emotionally, was handled in a thoughtful, professional, caring way that really helped us work through a sad and difficult decision. Dr. Keri explained things thoroughly and never rushed us in any way, gave us time to handle our grief, and was genuinely empathetic. She was gentle and kind to our sweet kitten. This was obviously an incredibly hard thing to go through, but we were very glad for the support that Dr. Wasmoen gave us.

Dr. Kari Wasmoen came to our home last week to help my 21-year-old kitty complete her journey in peace and relative comfort. While it was a heartbreaking event, Dr. Kari did everything in her power to make it peaceful and comfortable for my kitty and my family. She was a kind, calming presence. She explained everything clearly and calmly and treated my cat and our family with the utmost respect. It was my first time using an in-home pet euthanasia service, and the experience was so much more pleasant and meaningful than I think it would have been in vet's office. I hope it is a long, long, time before I need these services again, but I would absolutely use CodaPet and Dr. Kari Wasmoen again.

This experience was beautifully heartbreaking. I am so thankful we decided to go this route while putting our beloved dog down. Keri handled everything so compassionately and thoughtful. She let us take the time we needed and let us feel all the feels. No one is ever really ready, but I'm so happy we went with Codapet for this decision.

Difficult as it was, we made the right decision to euthanize our dear friend Harper after learning of her serious medical condition. We heard of Dr. Wasmoen through our veterinary clinic. She was outstanding in helping us get through the process. Dr. Wasmoen made herself available when we finally made the decision to euthanize Harper at our home. Her communication skills were excellent. Dr. Wasmoen clearly explained what she was doing, how our dog could respond & allowed us the time we needed to get through it. We were both very emotional & Dr. Wasmoen was gentle, comforting & supportive. Our dear Harper left our home peacefully in her care in a comfortable basket. We are grateful for her outstanding care and highly recommend Dr. Wasmoen. Arlene & Rob

Dr. Keri was kind, comforting and professional. She made a very difficult day a little easier to handle for our family, as we knew our sweet boy was receiving the respect and care he deserved.

Review by Dr. Keri Wasmoen

Keri was very understanding and it made me feel like she cared about what I was going through. She went through the steps very well and explained what was going to happen. She also gave us a nice gift paw print of our pet which is a item I will cherish forever.
