Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I have loved animals from the time I can remember and pursuing veterinary medicine meant that I got to spend every day with the animals I love and helping them from all avenues. In my many years as a veterinarian, I deeply understand the challenges of treating critically ill patients and the nuances of end-of-life care. I am honored to help pets pass away peacefully in the comfort of their home and with their loving family at their side.

What pet parents are saying

Dr. Sara went above and beyond for us when we chose humane in-home euthanasia for our beloved almost 13 year old dog we had to 11 wonderful years. He was extremely stressed out when he was at the dog hospital/vets office so we decided to bring him home and let him go peacefully in his favorite spot in the yard. He was loved and comfortable as much as he could be during the experience. Thank you Dr. Sara ❤️

Dr Sara helped us in dire circumstances by helping Sable start the next part of her journey. She was gentle and caring both for our comfort and to ease our big dog out of this life as painlessly as possible when there was no more hope for her recovery. We miss Sable every day! Thank you Dr Sara. /Dave and Olga

Dr. Sara Gardhouse was so kind and understanding with my dear old man Rocky. She was extremely respectful and explained everything that was going to happen. My old man had a kind and dignified passing. I will always encourage at home care for any pets. Thank you Dr. Sara.

Dr.Sara was so kind and comforting during our visit. She really made the process a little easier to deal with. I will definitely use her again when the time comes for my other fur baby to go meet her sister on the rainbow bridge.

Dr. Sara recently helped us say goodbye to our sweet girl cat.  It was such a hard time for us and she was very mindful of that.  We are grateful to have done this at home and the service she provides is beyond appreciated.  The compassion and empathy she shows means a lot.  The Cremation company used was great and respectful.  She was home within 8 days.  We highly recommend this company and Dr.Sara."

Dr Sara arrived early at our request. She talked us through the process. Alphie responded to her as sick as he was. She was very caring and professional. This made a difficult day easier. I would give her Coda Pet the highest recommendation. David Valentine Aurora CO
