Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I offer in-home euthanasia 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
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.
There are no words to describe how kind, compassionate, understanding, and overall amazing Dr. Natalie Dennis was. I work with animals so I fully understand how hard her job is offering euthanasia services, it can take an emotional toll on anyone, but she handles it so gracefully making sure not only your fur baby but you are also comfortable and okay during the entire process. It is extremely difficult to make this decision for your pet but making this decision with Dr. Dennis was the best thing I could’ve done for my old lady❤️ thank you Dr. Dennis for caring so much. We will never forget everything that you did
Dr Natalie Dennis was very compassionate and understanding in my time of grief. What I expected was that she would come into my home give my best friend a shot or two and then be gone. What actually happened is when she arrived we sat with my buddy as I shared stories of his birth and his 14 years together with me. I shared pictures with her of him and describe to her what made him the best dog a person could ever have. Several times I apologized for taking so much of her time and she always had the same responces, its ok take your time she would say. There is no rush whenever you are ready. He was really an amazing friend to you etc. I never felt rushed and was made to feel that I was in control of the timing throught the process. She told me the cremation would take about a week. The very next day she called to tell me she would be returning my buddy's remains the next day. I would say Dr Natalie Dennis made the experience the best it could possibly be considering the circumstances.
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.
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!
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.
