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
Dr. Natalie Dennis is a phenomenal caregiver and with the best bedside manner for animals I’ve ever observed. Her compassion is only matched by her empathy. She made the hardest possible day somewhat bearable. I would recommend her to anyone who is going through the difficult task of saying goodbye to a pet.
We have lost two family members this past year. Our first loss was performed at an emergency clinic and very stressful for us and our loved one. Facing this situation again, we reached out to CodaPet and Dr. Natalie Dennis. Her in home service, her compassion and expertise made this horrible time so less stressful for us and our loved one. Thank you Dr. Dennis, you are amazing.
My family can’t thank Doctor Natalie enough when it came to saying goodbye to our cat. We needed this service to ensure no stress or anxiety for him and I couldn’t have asked for him to pass more peacefully. I highly recommend this at-home pet euthanasia service to all.
Dr. Natalie is beyond amazing. She took the saddest day of our lives and made it special, complete with stories and laughter and just all-around conversation taking us out of the moment but always keeping us present in the reason she was there. My girl was 17 and worked from home with me and we were able to say our goodbyes in our office where she was at home and comfortable and safe and cherished. Thank you, Dr. Natalie for such a confusing experience LOL. Making a hard day easy is by no means an easy task but you accomplished it for us. Thank you
Dr. Dennis was fantastic from the time we made the appointment to the final moments of her taking our pet to the mortuary. She contacted us the day before to let us know she was available to change the appointment time if we needed her earlier than we set up. She also kept in touch with us the day of. When she got to our house she interacted with both of our dogs along with telling us what to expect and to ask any questions at any time. She was so professional and caring to us and our pets. She was so kind to Madison at the end. She is a blessing for helping us during this sad time for us. I would recommend her for anyone that would be in need of a in home passing of their pet.
I can’t begin to express how grateful we are to CodaPet and Dr. Natalie Dennis for making one of the hardest moments of our lives so much more peaceful and comforting. When it came time to say goodbye to our beloved dog Tedi after 16 beautiful years, we were devastated, but Dr. Dennis showed such incredible compassion and care. She was not only professional, but she truly understood the emotional weight of the moment. She took the time to explain everything and answered all of our questions, making us feel completely at ease with the process. The fact that they came to our home made all the difference. We were able to be in the comfort of our own space, surrounded by familiar sights and smells, which made saying goodbye just a little bit easier. Dr. Dennis spent as much time as we needed with Tedi, letting us say our goodbyes and offering us the comfort of knowing that Tedi was being treated with the utmost respect and dignity. The level of care, compassion, and professionalism that CodaPet and Dr. Dennis showed during this incredibly difficult time will never be forgotten. If you’re ever in this heart-wrenching situation, we cannot recommend their services enough. They truly make a painful process as peaceful as it can possibly be. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
