By AI, Created 11:25 AM UTC, May 20, 2026, /AGP/ – CodaPet has launched in-home pet euthanasia services in Roseburg, Oregon, through veterinarian Dr. Kaitlyn Mitchell-Gibson. The rollout gives pet owners in Douglas County a way to choose at-home end-of-life care, with appointments, aftercare and cremation support available locally.
Why it matters: - CodaPet’s Roseburg launch gives pet families in Douglas County a way to arrange end-of-life care at home instead of in a clinic. - The service is designed to keep pets in familiar surroundings with family present, which can reduce stress and help families say goodbye more privately. - The company is expanding a veterinarian network across more than 100 cities, adding another local option for in-home euthanasia.
What happened: - CodaPet launched in-home pet euthanasia services in Roseburg, Oregon, on May 5, 2026. - Dr. Kaitlyn Mitchell-Gibson will serve pets and pet parents in Roseburg and surrounding areas. - The service covers Roseburg, Sutherlin, Winston, Myrtle Creek, Glide, Yoncalla and other Umpqua Valley communities.
The details: - CodaPet connects pet owners with licensed veterinarians who provide in-home euthanasia. - Before the appointment, the veterinarian contacts the family to answer questions and concerns. - At the visit, the veterinarian reviews the diagnosis and uses a quality-of-life assessment to help guide the decision. - The average appointment takes about 45 minutes. - Pet parents can spend private time with their pets before and after the procedure. - The veterinarian begins the euthanasia process only when everyone is ready. - Aftercare support can include transportation and cremation services. - The starting price for in-home euthanasia in Roseburg is $300. - Aftercare and cremation start at $37 and vary by driving distance, pet size and whether cremation is private or communal. - CodaPet said its network is made up of compassionate, licensed veterinarians. - For more information or to schedule an appointment, CodaPet directs families to the company website or to call 1-833-CodaPet.
Between the lines: - The launch fits a broader shift toward more personalized end-of-life veterinary care, especially for families who want to avoid the stress of a clinic setting. - Dr. Karen Whala, a CodaPet co-founder, framed the service as a way to give families a peaceful and compassionate option when a pet’s time comes. - Dr. Mitchell-Gibson’s background in mixed animal medicine and her move back to rural Oregon suggest CodaPet is targeting communities where pets are closely woven into family life.
What’s next: - CodaPet appears to be continuing its city-by-city expansion as it adds veterinarians in new markets. - The company is also recruiting veterinarians who want to offer the service in their own areas. - Pet owners in the Roseburg area now have a local in-home euthanasia option available through the CodaPet network.
The bottom line: - CodaPet is betting that more pet owners want end-of-life care that is private, at-home and veterinarian-guided.
