Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

Providing a safe and beautiful experience not only for the pet but also the family that has loved them so is crucial to a dignified way of saying goodbye. There is no better way that I could use my education than to provide a service that equals the love the family has given this pet over the years.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Marlene Anschultz was so helpful trough the whole process, she really eased our pain with her calm and empathy, she has a very kind heart and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye while reassuring us that we were making the right decision for Remus. She made this first time at home experience a much less painful event even though it never gets easier ❤️‍🩹 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Marlene. Stephan and Ginny P.

Yes please As we gathered today on one year anniversary of OSO passing we still recall the graciousness and most compassionate gentleness Dr Marlene Anschultz shared in caring for Oso. We are still greatly appreciative for the kindness she gave us at a difficult time. This topic came up several times in today’s remembrance. I just wanted to share this with you. Thankyou

Dr. Marlene was absolutely wonderful! She made the whole process a breeze. It was such a treat to share our dogs’ journey with her, and reminiscing about the past was like a good therapy session.

Our near 15 year old pup, Jack, left us just a few weeks ago. We met Dr Marlene three years ago when she came to our home to euthanize our girl, Shawni (Jack’s mother). Because of her gentle manner and obvious expertise with Shawni, we specifically asked for her for Jacky who she skillfully gave the same calm release from his last weeks dealing with nasal lymphoma. She was extremely supportive (patient!) with us too, giving as much time as we needed to finally let Jack go. She’s gentle with an empathy that seems she’s always known our boy and what he’s meant to us. Bravo, Dr Marlene, keep up the amazing good work you provide for all deserving animals.

Dr. Marlene was everything we could have asked for but didn't need to. She was so comforting and knowledgeable during my boy's transition, and we felt at peace knowing he was in compassionate hands. Her patience and calm helped us through a really devastating day, and we are so grateful to have found her and Codapet. We even received a beautiful note several weeks later - so thoughtful and kind. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for what you provide to pet parents!
