Dr Glenn Jackson was very caring and compassionate when he came to our home to help our declining 14 year old Springer Ziva cross over. My last four Springers passed away at home, even though difficult,I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Syracuse, NY

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.

Glenn was extremely aware of the special bond between a human and their animal companion and his calm, sensitive manner was so supportive. I felt blessed to have had him present.

Dr. Beth was so kind and compassionate and really helped all of us as we were navigating Piper's last moments. She allowed us to be with her and comfort her and was so kind to our other pup who was with us saying goodbye to her best friend. I know that Dr. Beth helped Piper feel safe as she loved on us for the last time. Thank you Dr. Beth and thank you CodaPet.

Codapet was exactly what we needed for our dog Buddy. I got references from my vet and checked them all out, but Codapet was what we decided with. I have not had in home euthanasia so I felt I was going in blind. Codapet had a very easy website to navigate, (because I couldn’t talk to anyone without crying) and I eventually spoke with a customer service rep after scheduling, and they were very understanding and patient. Then, the local doctor, Dr. White made sure to contact me beforehand and ask any questions about the appointment. Then, she was very informative and patient with us during the appointment. We were not rushed, and everything was at our pace as we said goodbye to our very good boy. She talked us through every step. Dr. White is a compassionate medical professional and truly understands what we were going through. I can’t recommend her enough, she’s absolutely amazing!

As difficult an experience as our in-home euthanasia appointment was, CodaPet was compassionate and helpful throughout the entire process, and relieved the stress around the logistical and administrative part of saying goodbye to a pet and friend. There are not enough positive words to say about Dr. Larsen. She was highly communicative and available leading up to the appointment, arrived on time, and handled the business side of things in a very respectful and professional manner. Her bedside manner and attentiveness to our feelings and wishes were top-shelf. She handled our pet with care, empathy, and respect, which was greatly appreciated. Dr. Larsen definitely made this a little more bearable, and we are grateful for her compassion and professionalism.

In home pet euthanasia is so much less stressful for your pet and yourself. Dr. Lisa Littlejohn did an outstanding job in comforting us and administering pain medicine. In our case once the pain medicine was administered our sweet baby Rufus passed quickly. We were able to have Rufus outside in his favorite spot laying in the grass. We sat with him in the grass and she administed the pain medicine. He passed peacefully right there with us loving on him. She gave us time with him alone then brought a basket to place him in. She took him to be cremated and will contact us when his ashes are ready to be picked up. I would highly recommend this experience over taking your furry family member to the vet clinic.
