FAQs

The total cost includes the in-home pet euthanasia service fee, any travel fee (if any apply), and a platform fee. Additionally, depending on your choice, fees may apply for cremation services or keepsakes.

During your appointment, your vet will confirm your aftercare selection with you. If you choose to arrange cremation services, your vet will oversee your pet’s transportation to a local facility for cremation. If your preferred cremation option includes the return of your pet’s ashes to you, your vet will discuss the process to reunite you with your pet's ashes and the anticipated time frame during your appointment

Yes, upon arrival the veterinarian will assess your pet. This can look different than an “nose to tail” examination in a clinic setting and will focus more on the pet’s history and quality of life.

It is not uncommon to have doubts about whether the time is right. If you’ve taken the Quality of Life Questionnaire and are still unsure, we recommend consulting with your family veterinarian before scheduling an appointment.

Rest assured, if you book an appointment, your in-home euthanasia veterinarian will let you know if they do not believe that euthanasia is appropriate at this time.

You can expect your veterinarian to be in your home from 20-60 minutes, depending on how much of that time you need or want throughout the process.

This was such a peaceful and special experience with my 14 year old husky. Dr. Stukey was so professional, yet personable. She left and we all said we wanted to be her friend! I was so emotional about this situation but am beyond grateful I was able to do it at my home, in our everyday environment. I couldn't imagine driving home in a quiet car from the vet office...

The gentle care Dr. Stern gave to my kitty on the last minutes of her life made the whole experience a happier, and peaceful time. Having her come to our home and helping my baby pass on was the last gift I would be able to give her, and Dr Stern made it possible. Thank you for your kindness and compassion.

This was my first time using an in home pet euthenasia service. Dr Taylor Martin was wonderful. She explained step by step what to expect, and when the moment came, my sweet cat passed so peacefully. It eased my mind so much knowing her final moments were at home in her favorite spot.

Dr Bates came to our house and very gently lead us through the process of saying goodbye to our beloved Buster. Buster was terrified of going to the vet and when we finally decided his days of enjoying life had come to an end, Dr. Bates made his passing comfortable and peaceful. Thank you CodaPet and Dr Bates.

I was referred to Dr. Murray by someone who had used his services for their dog a few months prior. The care and graciousness that he showed myself, my family, and my soul dog was unmatched. From the moment he arrived, I could feel his calming energy. He was kind, thorough, and patient. Dr. Murray took a really hard decision and made it feel comforting. Thank you so much. <3

Dr Pugh was amazing in helping us let our cat, Tuna, go with dignity and surrounded with love at home. The kindness, compassion and understanding she brought with her were needed and appreciated more than this review can ever let me detail.
