Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Frederick, MD
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.

Dr. Lori was amazing and so caring during such a difficult time. She made sure we and our Little Ella was completely comfortable. She took time to explain everything, and we never felt rushed. She listened to our stories about how Ella was the greatest dog ever to lived and seemed to agree! She is a wonderful human being! Thank you so much for your kindness and expertise!
Always dreaded the day having to put my sweet 8 year old Luna down, so it’s still a surreal feeling but want to truly thank Dr. Meagan Batey who accommodated her schedule to help lessen my dogs pain yesterday. I never thought about in home Euthansia and so glad I googled this service and came across this company. I am so thankful that Dr. Batey eased my dog’s transition yesterday over the rainbow bridge. She was very thorough and answered all of our questions. She felt our pain and was very comforting. It was truly a peaceful experience despite all the emotions that come with putting your dog down. Luna will be forever missed. Thank you Dr. Batey!
Dr. Silvesti was so wonderful. First off, she made the time to come earlier than planned when my dog was declining rapidly. She was so warm, kind, and compassionate throughout the whole process. She was so genuinely caring and I am so grateful for her during 1 of the hardest times of my life. I can't thank her enough.
Dr Jenny came out to our house days before Christmas and made such a difficult time for us, so calm. This was the first time my family has done an at home euthanasia and we could not have asked for a better experience. Dr Jenny was so kind and compassionate. We cannot thank her enough.
I am forever grateful to Dr Lara Allison and I sincerely wish for each pet family the same respect, tender-heartedness and dignity that she provided our handsome boy Shep. We were overwhelmed by her compassion and I can honestly say that she has a servants heart. To Dr Lara: “My cup runneth over.” (Psalm 23:5)
Dr. Lori was fantastic, she made sure my dog never felt scared or anxious, and he was able to peacefully pass in his favorite bed surrounded by his humans and treats. I live in a fairly rural area, but the travel fee was fair. Would definitely use them again when the time comes. They make a really hard day a little easier.
