Verified Veterinarian
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
Dr. Wasmoen is so calm and caring during a very difficult time. Our beloved 14 yr old dog had been recently diagnosed with diabetes and we made the decision not to treat. So, when the time came to have him put to sleep, I came in contact with Dr. Wasmoen through Coda-pet. She came to our home and was so kind and considerate of our feelings and even reassured me that it was the right thing to do. She explained everything that would happen very clearly before and while she was doing the procedure. We had as much time as we wanted to spend with him afterwards and she took him out in a basket wrapped in a blanket. Every step of the process was so well done. We received his paw print, some of his hair and later, his ashes. It was such a difficult time but she made it a peaceful ending to his wonderful life.
Dr. Keri was wonderful! She communicated with us through the entire process from the point we scheduled to when we got our dogs Ashes. She was kind, respectful, understanding, and informative. She was a calm presence on a very hard day. She allowed us to grieve, process, and say goodbye to a member of our family without feeling rushed or judged. I will recommend Dr. Keri and the Coda service to anyone who has to make this decision.
Dr Keri Wasmoen, Took excellent care of Hunter & myself. She let me know the whole process to what she doing and how Hunter was more than likely to react, everything she said and did was very gentle and made everything a bit more comfortable. Although it was an extremely sad day for me, knowing that she made Hunters passing as easy as possible. I would highly recommend Keri. Also I’d like to thank her for taking great care and compassion to Hunter and I
Dr. Keri Wasmoen was an angel for our family and for our beloved cat,Vinci. She provided peace, calm, and a serene atmosphere. We miss our cat so much, but we have absolutely no negative feelings associated with his passing because Dr. Keri Wasmoen came into his space and offered him, and us, a beautiful opportunity to look back on his last minutes with surety that he was at peace.
Like all pet owners making the decision to end your pet’s life is one of the hardest decisions you will make in your life. So, when our little dog's medical condition began to worsen, and it became apparent that her getting better was not an option we prayed on the decision to euthanize our beloved dog. We had heard of "in home pet euthanasia" from friends and decided to explore that option. We were glad we did and found a wonderful, compassionate and professional Vet that specialized in home euthanasia. Dr. Keri Wasmoen with Codapet was recommended by a friend and we could not have been more pleased with how she handled the last moments of our precious dog's life. From the moment she arrived we were set at ease and given comfort during the process. Dr. Wasmoen took care of everything with unbelievable patience and professionalism. She has a three-step process that gradually leads to the end with a calm and clear explanation of each step and what your pet is experiencing. Dr. Wasmoen made the experience comforting and much easier than we had expected. We feel that our dogs last moments were peaceful and loving and as hard as it was Dr. Wasmoen consoled us and took care of all the details which made the process easier to deal with. We highly recommend Dr. Keri Wasmoen for any pets Euthanasia.
In home pet euthanasia with Dr. Keri - Dr. Keri was extremely kind and understanding throughout the entire process as we were all grieving, as a family, losing our very beloved cat, Smokey. Dr. Keri explained the procedure step by step and also explained again as she administered each medication, and reassured us that Smokey would not be in any pain. If you're looking for a personal experience without the stress of the vet's office, I absolutely recommend Dr. Keri with CodaPet.
