Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
I became a veterinarian to provide the best care possible to every animal I encounter. I want to provide compassionate in-home euthanasia to relieve pain and suffering and bring peace to our family pets.

What pet parents are saying
It was so amazing to have such a wonderful.compassionate and caring provider to help our family with such a difficult time. Dr. Hemmer was absolutely amazing from my first contact with her I knew my decision to choose this option and provider was right. I can’t praise her enough with mere words. I miss my Grizzy Bear every single day since her passing but I know she passed in the most gentle way, with kind and loving care. My children were all with her and I was able to lay down with her and feel last beat of her heart. I never sensed any bit of fear, pain or stress in her and I know she left me in the most gentle way. I am forever grateful for Dr Hemmer’s care and I know she cared for my dog in the exact way she would have wanted her pet cared for! Thank you so much.
When the day finally came and Dr. Sheryl Hemmer arrived at our home, although we felt the pain in our hearts for the impending loss of our loved one, her presence was as if we were greeting an old friend that you haven’t seen in a long time. Dr. Hemmer was welcoming, loving, professional, powerfully empathetic, and made the process of helping our pet move on to the next life as painless and comfortable as it could possibly be.
To those who are about to experience the loss of a beloved pet, At first, I didn’t really know how the in-home pet euthanasia process worked, nor was I really aware it was an option before I found the idea from a co-worker and found CodaPet. I was filled with anxiety, not only about my own worries of whether or not it was a real service, but also because the reality of making the decision to let go of my pet just felt all too “raw”. After making the decision and finally giving them the call, I was welcomed by a truly empathetic and kind spirited phone representative, who made the set up process convenient, affordable, and easy to work through. They scheduled our service with the closest and best available Doctor in my area, making the process as stress free as possible.

Words cannot describe my gratitude for the exceptional service we were provided. It made the burden of losing our animal just a bit easier to bear, and will be my only method of euthanasia for every pet I own. Thank you Dr. Hemmer, and thank you CodaPet for providing a truly invaluable service.
Dr Hemmer was such a light in a dark day for our family. Jake our 15 year old was ready to move on but he kept hanging on because I feel he knew we weren’t quite ready. But after coming home from vacation I knew it was time for me to make the decision. He was so miserable. To have Dr Hemmer come to our house was a blessing because Jake hated car rides so he would have had a traumatic last few hours. This way he was able to pass peacefully at home surrounded by all of us, even his best bud, our cat Tank. She was so sweet and very calming for all of us. I will use her again when it’s Tanks time. Thank you Dr Hemmer ❤️
Dr. Hemmer was in touch with us within a few hours of our booking to learn about our cat Calli and the details of our situation. We so appreciated her call and her willingness to work with us, as we needed to tweak the time of our appointment. She has an amazing bedside manner. She was so gentle with both our dear Calli and us throughout our last hour together. She is such a sweet, compassionate soul. We highly recommend her services.
This was one of the hardest things we have had to face. But Dr. Hemmer was absolutely a god-send for this experience. She was kind and caring and lead us through everything with empathy. We were so sad and heart-broken but each step was explained and she gave us our time and don’t rush anything. We feel so fortunate to have had Dr. Hemmer with us through this. I would highly recommend these services for anyone facing this hard decision.
