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

Our dear very elderly Zoe ( dog) passed away. We did not want to see her go, although she was a grump we loved her. Our other dog was there, and I held Zoe's head in my lap. She just slipped away. I am grateful that my husband and I could hold her. She did not panic, have anxiety . Thank you Dr. Gardhouse. Jennifer and Tom Fox

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 Gardhouse was an amazing support during the hardest time putting our cat down. She was so sincere and kind and was able to come out the same day when we needed her most. Highly recommend her if you have to go through this process.

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.

We used Coda-pet for our in home euthanasia for our beautiful 16 year old golden doodle. We were sent an angel, Dr Sara Gardhouse. She arrived on time and was extremely compassionate, explained the process and gave us time alone as we all said goodbye to Bella. I highly recommend Coda-pet and Dr Sara.

Dr. Gardhouse is one of the most caring veterinarians I have ever worked with. She went above and beyond to support us during this difficult time, and she genuinely cares for both the pets and their families. I would recommend her to anyone that wants nothing but the best for their little loved ones. She is truly exceptional, and genuinely suited for one of the most difficult jobs there is. Thank you, Dr. Gardhouse!
