Verified Veterinarian
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.

Dr Sara arrived on time, explained things thoroughly and communicated throughout - we felt like our family was in caring and competent hands and appreciated her efficient and patient approach to this heart wrenching part of life.
Dr Sara was extremely caring, calm and patient. Especially with my dachshund that wasn't sure what was going on. I appreciated her being honest and letting us know each step of the process and what to expect.
Dr. Gardhouse was truly caring and supportive. What a blessing for our dear Romy to be relieved of his suffering. We miss him terribly but CodaPet provides such a valuable service.
Sara was calm, kind, and attentive to our grief. I'm so glad I decided to go with in-home and Sara was a big part of being happy with that decision.
Dr. Gardhouse was very kind and compassionate throughout the entire process. Nothing could have made the day easier, but Dr. Gardhouse gave us all the time that we needed and to say our goodbyes and walked us through every step. We felt relieved knowing our Uno passed surrounded at home with a big belly full of salmon, surrounded by her loved ones and without pain.
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. Chloe was home within 8 days. We highly recommend this company and Dr.Sara.
