Dr. Simpson went out of her way to provide us exceptional service including bringing our pet's clay paw print down to us so we did not have to make a special trip to Ft Collins to pick it up. During her visit with us she was so sympathetic to our situation and gentle and kind with all of our pets.

Doctor Taylor was incredible during a really difficult time. He took time to explain the process, listened to our stories about our cat, empathized, and made sure we were all comfortable. He gave us a gift that was priceless- and that was peace.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Fort Collins, CO

Your credit card is required to reserve your appointment. However, no payment is required until the appointment and nothing is due until the appointment is completed

We charge cancellation fee of $100 if an appointment is cancelled less than 4 hours before the start time. If your pet passes away before your appointment you would not be charged a cancellation fee. If the vet you scheduled is able, and you would like their assistance with cremation, then pickup fee would apply instead of euthanasia fee

Other Consideration

If you have a larger pet, your vet may need the help of one friend or family member. Talk to your vet about options and limitations when they reach out to you prior to your appointment, and they will inform you of any extra cost for your situation. 

Options for your pets return home and memorabilia depend on your local provider. Your vet coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes and let you know if there are additional fees for urn delivery. 

Extra time or medications needed can affect the total price. Other factors can be if it is decided that it’s not time to euthanize your pet after the vet has arrive. In that case, only the travel fee, platform fee, and a quality of life consult would apply. 

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.

As sad as having to lost a pet is, I was very happy with Dr. Sims and how loving and compassionate she was and the whole process was. I couldn't have imagined a better send-off for my pup.

Dr. Jennifer Holman was excellent with our sweet baby Seiko. It is heartbreaking that we had to say goodbye to our girl but Dr. Holman made the experience easier on us. She was so gentle with Seiko and explained everything she was going to do.

Dr. Dan could not have been more kind and thorough with this experience. If one has to send their beloved furbaby over the rainbow bridge, there is no one better to help you though the process.
