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. Holman was just the ‘angel’ I needed to escort my precious boy to the 🎶Spirit in the sky🎶. She was calm, gentle, peaceful and simply amazing. Thank you for providing this in home service. What a gift.

We recently had to make the tough decision to put our sweet kitty to sleep and went with CodaPet. Our vet, Dr. Courtney White was so compassionate and patient. She walked us through each step and was very gentle and calming. She made the whole process a lot easier.

Dr Delia Gregory-Macdonald was amazing. Unfortunately, we have had a couple of experiences with in-home euthanasia and am actually glad I never heard back from our previous provider. It has now been 5 days and I've yet to hear back from our previous provider. Dr. Delia was so kind and caring. She immediately put myself, husband and adult son at ease while going through this incredibly painful task. She was very focused on easing our distress and making sure that our Zeke was not suffering. The whole experience was easy. I found CodaPet via google, explained my needs, put in my info and they matched us with Dr. Delia who was able to come to the house the following day. She started communicating with me right away and would have come sooner if it was needed, if our doggo was declining faster. Really cant say enough great things about Dr Delia and CodaPet.

I’m going to tell you the truth up front: any euthanasia is an excruciating decision. It’s one that pet parents never want to have to make. However, sometimes it becomes the only humane, reasonable option when our beloved pets are in pain or have no quality of life remaining. Additionally, at-home euthanasia gives you and your pet a sense of calm that neither of you will be able to find in any office anywhere. In their final moments, your beloved pets aren’t scared about an unfamiliar office, or unfamiliar smells or faces, but are comforted and surrounded by things and people they know and love. I’ve known Dr. Batey for years and can tell you, without any doubt, that there is no other person on Earth that I’d allow to care for my dogs and to help them in their transition beyond the sunset. Dr. Batey explained the process to us clearly, she was patient with us and she was completely accepting of any suggestions we had to make our beloved Govy’s transition easier not only for him, but for us as well. We will never be able to truly repay her expertise and kindness, but hope that when you have to make this heartbreaking decision, you let Dr. Batey help you and your loved one the way she helped us.

Dr. Vernon was compassionate and genuinely cared about me and the comfort of my Pepper. I am so thankful that she was able and available to come to my home. Pepper would he so anxious having to go to the groomer or vet and to have her final day to be at home not scared and made comfortable gives me comfort and peace. There is more that I could say but it is still hard. I would recommend codapet and Dr. Vernon, such a wonderful and caring person.

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 I’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 couldn’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
