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.

We had to make the incredibly difficult decision to say goodbye to our beloved pet. What made it even harder was how sudden it all was—an aggressive form of cancer with no warning signs until it was too late. At 11 years old, we were left with no real options, only the responsibility to do what was most humane for her. We chose to have Molly at home, in her favorite spot, surrounded by her favorite toy and the people who loved her most. I truly cannot imagine going through this any other way. Dr. Wolfingbarger brought a level of compassion and calm that helped ease an otherwise unbearable situation. When facing these kinds of decisions, minimizing stress and maximizing comfort—for both the pet and the family—is everything. This experience, while heartbreaking, was handled with such care that it made all the difference.
Dr April le Blanc is such a gift of kindness and calm energy during a sad and difficult time. When it was clear that our dog’s long and slow decline was causing her to suffer, we decided to look for in-home pet euthanasia. Our whole family and her little dog buddy all got to be with her, in our living room, during her passing. April knows how to guide grieving pet families with compassion. I’m very grateful for her and for this service.
Dr Bufford was excellent in helping us through this time. Our pet was comfortable in his own surroundings at home and went peacefully. Thank you for this service.
I can't think of a nicer way for my Lucy to pass. In her home, relaxed, not terrified in a vets office, just cradled in my arms like a baby. I miss her so much, but knowing she is not in pain is comforting to me. Dr. Hundley should have wings. She was like an angel who had one wing wrapped around me and the other wing wrapped around my babygirl. I'm forever grateful.
Had our old girl put to sleep in her own bed with all her loved ones nearby and no need to endure the stress and travel for a traditional vet. Worth every penny. Our doctor was kind and a great sport dealing with the location and position in which our girl chose to rest herself for the last time.
John was extremely helpful and understanding when we had to put Daisy to rest. He made the experience as comfortable as can be given the situation. I would recommend him to anyone who needs his assistance.
