Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I offer in-home euthanasia and end-of-life consultations because I care deeply not just for animals, but for the people who love them. Being invited into this sacred moment within the comfort of a family's home, allows me to honor the human-animal bond in the most compassionate way possible. I believe every pet deserves to pass peacefully at-home, free from fear or pain, and every family deserves comfort, clarity, and dignity during this very difficult goodbye. By helping pet owners recognize the loving choice in ending suffering, I’m here to support and empower them through one of life’s hardest decisions with gentleness, presence, and peace.

What pet parents are saying
Words are not enough to describe just how kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive Dr. Dennis is. This service was a gift. I was able to keep my dog at home free from anxiety of the vet’s office and free from the impressment of crying at the vets office. My fur baby went peacefully and pain-free. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you so much Dr. Dennis. You’ll never know how much this meant to me.
I cannot recommend thank Dr. Natalie Dennis enough for her exceptional kindness and compassion during one of the most difficult times in our lives. She was incredibly gentle and caring not only to us but also to Ranger our beloved German Shepherd, making the process of saying goodbye as peaceful as possible. I would highly recommend her to any pet parents having to go through this process. We're forever grateful for her support and care.
We prefer at home euthanasia for all our pets and coming from Dallas we were worried there wouldn't be these types of services in LC. I'm glad we found Dr. Dennis and CodaPet to help us with our 15 yr old gal who wasn't doing too well since she was diagnosed with stage 4 CKD. She was able to pass with us and her fur siblings by her side stress free and comfortable. Thank you for being with us during this difficult time and also assisting with her cremation. We truly appreciated your kindness and compassion for us during that difficult time!
We hired Dr. Dennis Natalie for Tobys at-home pet euthanasia, and she was truly heaven-sent. She is such a kind and compassionate individual, carrying a calming and comforting energy that made an incredibly difficult experience much more bearable. Her patience, understanding, and empathy were evident throughout the entire process. She treated our beloved pet with the utmost care and respect, while also providing us with the support we needed during such an emotional time. I highly recommend at-home pet euthanasia for any pet parent facing this heartbreaking decision. Being in the comfort of our home brought a sense of peace and made the process of saying goodbye more gentle and meaningful. Thanks to Dr. Dennis Natalie, our mourning was made more manageable, and we’ll always be grateful for her presence during this time. God bless you Natalie.
We had hoped that our beloved “pup,” Bella would pass peacefully in her sleep but it was evident she was struggling and in pain. She had lived for 15 years, 2 months, and 4 days and gave us all the joy and love she had. We needed to understand that we, in turn needed to love her enough to send her on her next journey. It was time to seek in home pet euthanasia. Bella’s veterinarian only performed euthanasia in her clinic and recommended Dr. Natalie Dennis at CodaPet. We made an appointment for the next day. It is certain that Dr. Natalie Dennis is an “angel,” she made us feel as comfortable as possible with our decision. She took the time with us that we needed. She explained the procedure and went through each step in detail that would make sure Bella would pass peacefully. She answered all of our questions. Dr. Dennis was compassionate and gentle with our Bella. We believe it was providence that sent Dr. Natalie Dennis to us. Dr. Natalie Dennis, DVM is absolutely phenomenal. If you ever have to make this decision, we highly recommend her. She gets many more than five stars from us.
Compassionate option for euthanasia. Dr. Dennis performed the process with efficiency and most of all, with care - for my pet as well as for me personally. Because this was performed in our own home, my dog was relaxed and went to “sleep” naturally and comfortably.
