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 can’t express how grateful we are to Dr. Lori. She cared for our baby with such compassion, gentleness, and respect. Because of her, our baby was able to remain at home, surrounded by loved ones during such an important time. Dr. Lori gave us all the time we needed, never making us feel rushed, and showed incredible patience and understanding throughout the entire process. Her kindness and professionalism meant the world to our family. I highly recommend Dr Lori’s services and would not hesitate to use her again in the future.

We recently had the hardest decision to put our baby girl down and we used Coda Pet for the in home euthanasia service. We had Dave Leatherman as our in home vet and he was nothing but kind, respectful, and amazing. He was so kind to our family, the other animals in our home, and most importantly our precious girl. He made sure she was comfortable throughout the whole process and also made sure we were comfortable with everything he was doing. He talked to us as long as we wanted and met all of our questions or emotions with the utmost patience, kindness, and respect. Dave, you’re truly an angel. If you have to go through this terrible process, this truly was most peaceful and beautiful way to do it. Would highly recommend for other pet parents in need of this option.

Thank you for making my final moments with my girl as calm, loving, and supported as possible. I miss her every day and am so grateful I was able to give her a peaceful transition with your help. I higly recommend Dr. McCasland to anyone researching or thinking about this important decision, because she really cares and will treat this moment with dignity and care <3. All my love to the pet parents using this service in the future.

Our almost 17 year old baby-Maxwell was struggling. His mind and body was tired. It was the most difficult decision my husband and I had to make. We contacted CodaPet. Dr Mark Christine came to our home. With the utmost respect and care, Dr Mark gently assisted Maxwell pass on to his next journey. Allowing our beloved baby to pass at home as I held him in my arms surrounded with love and comfort of a familiar place was a blessing. I would highly recommend this service to others.

Dr Banks was so kind and considerate when we had our Boxer Bonnie euthanized. Bonnie had lymphoma and her tumors stopped responding to treatment so it was a terrible decision but Dr Banks was patient and so loving towards her. She responded right away once we contacted her and I can’t stress enough how comfortable she made us all and the care she took to make sure Bonnie’s last moments were as comfortable as possible. I would highly recommend her if you need to make that decision for your own pet.

My good friends and I are so grateful to and for Dr. Josh Williams. Here is why.. He called me the previous day with information about what would happen before, during and after. This helped take away my worries. All in all it turned out to be a celebration of my Gracie Kitty’s long life. The knowledge and caring and compassion that Dr. Williams brought made all the difference to me. I have the comfort that I did the right thing by and for my precious little one. sending you my deepest appreciation. Thank you Dr. josh!
