Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia
From a young age I have always felt a strong connection with animals. As I progressed in school, I was fascinated and excelled in biology and science, so choosing a career in veterinary medicine was a natural choice. I believe that every animal deserves compassionate care and I strive to provide the highest standard of care to all of my patients. After years of providing emergency care for pets in Memphis, I chose to extend my practice to include in-home euthanasia. Recognizing the emotional and sensitive nature of end-of-life decisions for pets, I wanted to offer a more comfortable and familiar environment for both the animals and their owners during this difficult time. By providing in-home euthanasia, I aim to create a peaceful and compassionate atmosphere, allowing pets to be surrounded by their loved ones in the comfort of their own homes. I believe that this personalized approach not only helps ease the emotional burden for pet owners but also ensures a more peaceful transition for the pet, allowing them to say goodbye in a calm and familiar setting.

What pet parents are saying
Dr. Mays is such a kind & caring person. She was so kind & gentle with our Bella. We are so grateful to her. Bella was sent over the rainbow bridge surrounded by love.
Would greatly recommend Dr Mays for anyone with the unfortunate need of letting their pet go. Allowing our dog to remain in the comfort of our home without adding the stress and anxiety of a trip to the vets office was a true blessing. And Dr Mays was very compassionate and professional in each step of the process.
This was the very best way to have my dog euthanized. It could not have been any more peaceful or comfortable for her. Dr. Mays was very professional yet compassionate and things could not have gone more smoothly for such a sad but inevitable experience that we as pet owners must endure.
We had a great experience using Codapet. Booking the appointment was quick and easy and everything went smoothly. Dr. Mays was so kind and caring. Would recommend vs. the clinic setting and it was about the same price but with the convenience of being at home.
Dr. Mays is a wonderful doctor. She never made us feel rushed in the process of putting our beloved family dog down, and answered all of our questions so we truly understood the process and what to expect. Having her come to our home for the euthanasia was so much more peaceful than taking him to the vet, and we will always choose this option with her moving forward. Thank you Dr. Mays for everything you do, you made this decision much less stressful for us, my family truly appreciates it!
Sr. Mays was very compassionate. She gave us time and checked with us from the first day we made the decision. We were allowed to make Straight comfortable and she was happy to answer any of our questions.
