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. A was extremely kind and compassionate. She did not rush us and was very thorough in her examination, gathering of information, explaining the procedure, etc. She made us very comfortable and we appreciated her service very much.
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!
Dr Marlene was absolutely amazing. Her knowledge of what happens and how our other pup Daisy Mae would react was spot on. She was able to transition our boxer peacefully and without any pain. We can not thank her enough.
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 absolutely amazing to work with. My fiancee had never used the service before (I have twice with Dr Whala) and she was very impressed with how gentle, caring, and lovely Dr Marlene was with her cat Issy. As usual, nothing was rushed and Dr Marlene took the time to explain the process before going forward. After it was completed she did a quick check that further confirmed her decision to let Issy go peacefully, as she had more tumors thatn the two that she knew of. She wrapped Issy up beautifully in a lavender blanket and placed her in a little basket to leave. Cannot recommend this service highly enough.
Dr. Marlene was amazing and made the very hard process much easier. She has compassion and I recommend her highly. She’s an incredible person and Dr.
