It was with a very heavy heart I had to say goodbye to my sweet Bella! My heart was breaking. Dr. Shannon made the transition for Bella go very smoothly. Finally Bella was at peace and out of pain. I highly recommend an at home euthanasia and I highly recommend Dr. Shannon. She is kind, courteous and if it in anyway could be easier on me she made it so. Thank you Dr. Shannon. šŸ™šŸ»

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Kailua-Kona, HI

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.Ā 

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

Extra time or medications needed can affect the total price. Other factors can be if it is decided that itā€™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.Ā 

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 petā€™s transportation to a local facility for cremation. If your preferred cremation option includes the return of your petā€™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 ā€œnose to tailā€ examination in a clinic setting and will focus more on the petā€™s history and quality of life.

It is not uncommon to have doubts about whether the time is right. If youā€™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.

What am incredibly difficult decision it is lead your baby to the Rainbow Bridge. My Chloe had turned 14 on Valentine's Day, and although she'd been slowing down for over a year, the beginning of March proved that she was getting markedly worse. After researching home euthanasia services I decided on CodaPet. I was able to schedule the date and time on line which was simple but anything but easy. Dr Lori arrived at the appointed time and was very understanding and respectful. She answered all of our questions and honored all of our wishes. She was gentle and caring and treated our Chloe with the utmost respect. I would absolutely recommend Dr Lori and CodaPet for anyone having to go through this gut wrenching part of being a dog parent.šŸ˜­

I cannot even begin to express my thanks to Dr Lori!! Wow! I had to see BOTH of my senior babies go at the same time and it was one of the hardest decisions Iā€™ve ever made in my entire life. Dr Lori was exemplary in everything she did. She was kind and gentle to everyone involved and I couldnā€™t have asked for a more caring person. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you for making a hard day as easy as possible. From the bottom of my heart! Thank you

We sadly had to put down our dog Chance who was with us for 16 years. Dr Devlin approached the entire heartbreaking process with compassion and respect. He was very gentle and explained everything from start to finish so we knew what to expect. Although we met under an unfortunate situation we are very thankful for him. He is a very kind soul.

I was very grateful that Dr. Goranova was able to help my baby over the rainbow bridge on such short notice - I was devastated and she was very comforting and made one of the worst days in my life just a little easier - she handled him so gently -

Dr Marlene was absolutely amazing. Her knowledge of what happens and how our other pup Daisy Mae would react was spot on. She was able to transition our boxer peacefully and without any pain. We can not thank her enough.

We made the difficult choice to say goodbye to our 15-year-old cat Leo who had developed an aggressive cancer, and I'm so glad we went with Coda and Dr. Erin. I began looking into at-home pet euthanasia options when Leo's health took a turn. Traveling to the vet was always a stressful experience for him, and that's not how I wanted his last moments to feel. Dr. Erin was unbelievably kind and compassionate, both toward Leo and us. She walked us through the process of sedation and then the final injection, helped us pick a comfortable location, gave Leo some final treats, and then began the process. It was very quick - only a few minutes - but it was peaceful, exactly the experience we wanted for our little guy. After Leo passed, Dr. Erin gave us some time alone to say goodbye. She then wrapped him in a blanket within a basket and carried him out, looking like he was taking a nice nap. I have absolutely no regrets and it made a challenging moment so much easier - I highly recommend this option and specifically Dr. Erin.
