By AI, Created 10:36 AM UTC, May 20, 2026, /AGP/ – CodaPet has expanded its network in Oklahoma City by adding a licensed veterinarian to provide at-home pet euthanasia for families across the metro area. The service is designed to give pets a calmer final moment at home and give owners more privacy, control and support during end-of-life care.
Why it matters: - In-home euthanasia can reduce stress for pets and families by avoiding a clinic setting at a difficult moment. - The service gives pet owners more control over timing, setting and who is present. - CodaPet is positioning the model as a more private and dignified option for end-of-life care.
What happened: - CodaPet added licensed veterinarian Dr. Miranda Collins to expand in-home pet euthanasia in Oklahoma City. - Dr. Collins will serve pets and pet parents in Oklahoma City and surrounding areas across central Oklahoma. - CodaPet announced the expansion on May 6, 2026.
The details: - Dr. Karen Whala, a CodaPet co-founder, said the goal is to help more Oklahoma City families learn about at-home pet euthanasia when the time comes. - CodaPet was founded by Dr. Karen Whala, Dr. Gary Hsia and Dr. Bethany Hsia. - The company says its network is built to expand customer access and awareness by empowering veterinarians to provide care in a familiar environment. - Dr. Collins was born and raised in Oklahoma and says she sees strong demand in Oklahoma City for personalized end-of-life care. - She earned an undergraduate degree from Oklahoma State University in 2017 and a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2021. - Dr. Collins says her work is focused on personalized care, pain relief and preserving dignity for families and their pets. - Her service area includes Edmond, Moore, Norman, Yukon, Mustang, Midwest City and nearby communities. - Through CodaPet’s website, pet parents can book an in-home euthanasia visit with a licensed veterinarian. - Before the appointment, the veterinarian contacts the family to answer questions and review the diagnosis and quality-of-life assessment. - CodaPet can also help with transportation and cremation aftercare. - The visit averages about one hour. - The euthanasia procedure lasts about 15 minutes. - The veterinarian begins only when everyone is ready. - In-home euthanasia starts at $300 in Oklahoma City. - Aftercare and cremation start at $65, with pricing varying by driving distance, pet size and private or communal cremation. - CodaPet says it currently supports a network of veterinarians in more than 100 cities. - More information is available at the company’s announcement and CodaPet’s website.
Between the lines: - The Oklahoma City expansion points to growing demand for at-home veterinary services as more families look for lower-stress end-of-life options. - Dr. Collins framed the service as a response to the city’s growth and its emphasis on family, including pets. - The model also shifts part of the burden from families to the veterinarian network by handling coordination, aftercare and cremation support.
What’s next: - CodaPet is likely to keep adding veterinarians and markets as it scales its network. - The Oklahoma City service now gives local families a new option for end-of-life care without leaving home. - Veterinarians interested in offering the service can learn more through the veterinarians page.
