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.

In home pet euthanasia Dr. Kyra came to the house earlier than our scheduled appointment in order to ease the suffering of our 11-year old boy. She was very quiet and calm and it was such a blessing. If you have the need to do so, I hope you can offer your animal the same kind treatment that Dr. Kyra provided. Thank you so much.

Dr. Amy was amazing and really made Bailey’s final moments as peaceful and painless as possible. The entire process went as well as it possibly could under the circumstances. We would highly recommend her.

On May 14, 2026 Dr. Dykstra arrived at our home at 9 am sharp after a hard night and decision to let our sweet and suffering Molly (13.5 yr old Cavalier) leave this life with us. Dr. Dykstra made the decision and process very comfortable and reassuring. Molly immediately took to her and accepted her love and attention. Such a gift of God to have it end this way with a loving expert! God bless you Dr. Dykstra. Eddie and Lisa Bridgers

This experience was such a peaceful, humane approach to euthanizing a beloved pet. He always had a horrible experience getting in the car and going to the vet for wellness checks. I couldn't see putting him through this in his last moments. He died a peacefully. Thank you.

Dr. Lori Thomas was a godsend. We had to make the gut-wrenching decision to say goodbye to our 15-year-old Zöegirl, and we are so grateful that Dr. Thomas was there to guide us through it. The experience was cozy, peaceful, and filled with so much empathy and love. She texted ahead of time to see if we had any questions or wanted to talk before the visit, and on the day of, she let us know when she was on her way. When she arrived, she greeted us like family. She took her time getting to know Zöe and made us feel comfortable with the hardest choice we’ve ever had to make. It was especially difficult because Zöe had sundowners, and during the day she could still seem so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. But she had walked into the pool several times, was running into walls, losing her balance, and losing her way. As hard as it was, we knew it was best not to wait for a middle-of-the-night emergency or have to say goodbye in a stressful vet room instead of in the comfort of her own home. Dr. Thomas explained every step of the process and made sure we were ready and comfortable. She handled our girl with such care and love, even driving her off as her “copilot” in a basket in the passenger seat. We truly could not have been blessed with a better end-of-life experience or a more compassionate doctor. We are forever grateful.

Dr. April Le Blanc who offers in-home pet euthanasia gave me the compassion and support I needed for my decision to euthanize my beloved pet cat Julius. She gave me the support I needed for my decision and guided me thru this difficult situation. The process itself was made easier and Julius was well taken care of with a peaceful process. I would not hesitate to recommend CodaPet to anyone facing the decision to have in-home pet euthanasia.
