It started off with bad communication. He called, I returned his calls, no answer. After many attempts and two hours later, we finally communicated. When he showed up, he was asking about my dogs history; then stated he would need to do a blood test to see what was going on. My dog was literally on her deathbed; which was more than evident. My dog had been sick for 4 years and on many medications. When he finally opened his bag, he stated he forgot the second medication that would euthanize her. He left and returned an hour later. Though he did euthanize her; his bedside manner and judgmental attitude was not good.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Pottstown, PA

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.

I was faced with the most difficult decision a few weeks ago when my beloved 15 year old Himalayan kitty Toby began having seizures. I tried medicines but they failed. He had been so healthy for his entire life. He only went to the Vets office for his vaccinations . He HATED going . It always made him so scared. When it became clear to me that the right decision for my baby boy was to let him go, I could not face the idea of that experience being at the one place that would traumatize him. There was no way that I could live with his last experience on this earth be one that caused him to be filled with fear. I somehow remembered a friend of mine saying years ago that her pup was put to sleep at her house. I googled “at home pet Euthenasia” and came across this service. I can’t express in words how deeply grateful I am for this option to provide him a peaceful transition in the place where he felt safe and loved . Dr Kim was incredibly compassionate throughout the entire process. This included check ins with me on the status of my boy several times prior to my appt date to be sure that I was comfortable with the decision , the day of care was amazing, and a text checking on me the day after. If you want the most peaceful way to say farewell to your sweet fur baby then this is the service that you want to use!!

This was the hardest decision we had to make, to put our Sugar down. Dr. Devlin came to our home where it would be more comfortable for Sugar and us. He was very kind, caring and empathetic. He took his time to explain everything and asked if we had any questions. I can honestly say, I am grateful we did this at home. It was very peaceful for our Sugar as well as for us.

Although it was a very difficult decision to make, Dr. Rob told us exactly what we needed to hear with great honesty and, above all, with great respect. I am very grateful to him for his compassion and kindness. I wouldn't hesitate to contact him again in the future, because, although it's very difficult to accept, death is a part of life.

The best decision we ever made! We didn't have to take our dog to the vet; something that he and we didn't enjoy. We and the kids were all able to be there as a family and send our beloved off with gentle love in his own home without any stress or strain, as our final act of love. Dr. Megan Duvall is an exceptionally fine veterinarian. Her experienced and loving touch was marvelous. Our regular vet didn't have any facilities that could compare to our own home; and would have charged us nearly the same price.  We are so glad that Myles (our Border Collie) was able to pass away in his own bed surrounded by his family!  This is a no-brainer folks!  We are so happy that we found Dr. Duvall!! Thank You!!

Dr Walden was wonderful and able to arrive the same morning we made the request. Our dog was in a great deal of distress throughout the night and we couldn’t get him in the car to take him to our vet, so we sought out the in home euthanasia. She was very caring and able to make his last moments very peaceful after a long night. We highly recommend Dr Walden to anyone considering the in home option for their pet.

It was a difficult decision to euthanize my cat, Romulus. But I realized it was time. A friend recommended CodaPet. Dr.Elizabeth Parks came to my home and explained each step in the process. She made sure I had definitely made this choice. She was calming, helping him relax by petting and talking to him. She asked if I was ready for the final injection. She was just as kind to me as him. Afterwards she left for several minutes giving me time to say "goodbye ". One of the things that touched me the most was when she came in with a flannel covered cat bed. Gently she placed Romulus in the center then covered him up to his chin with a matching blanket. He looked so peaceful like a sleeping baby. I was crying sad/happy tears. Sad because I was losing a beloved pet. But I was glad he'd been at home with familiar items, he could see the birds outside, listen to music which was always playing. It was beautiful. I highly recommend euthanasia at home. So much easier on the pet and the parent. Thank you Dr. Elizabeth.
