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.

Our experience was as beautiful as it could have been. Dr. Amy Lutgen DeWitt was responsive, reassuring, kind, knowledgeable, compassionate, and gentle. She was not rushed and seemed to genuinely care about our pet and family’s wellbeing. Having this experience at home felt more comfortable for everyone. We highly recommend. 💕

While it’s never a positive experience saying goodbye to your pet, Dr. Gary and Codapet made the experience less painful for all involved. If you’ve come to the decision to bravely give your pet rest, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Gary to help with that transition. He showed up promptly for our appointment, explained the procedure and guided our pet peacefully through their transition. Rest assured that during this stressful time, having a smooth process is one less thing to worry about when you go with Dr. Gary.

Dr. Nicole Ramos was very kind and patient as we had our At Home Pet Euthanasia. She was informative and empathetic throughout the process. We told her stories of our beloved Yorkie, Linus and she never rushed us thru this difficult procedure. I would highly recommend Dr. Nicole Ramos and wouldn't hesitate to request her again.

Dr Lara Allison is a literal angel. I must start by saying I’ve never lost a fur baby before, so I didn’t know what to expect. From the moment I booked my appointment for a quick appointment knowing we were reaching the end of 13 happy long years, I was greeted with compassion and empathy. I genuinely from the bottom of my heart do not think my husband and I would feel so at peace about our babies passing without Dr Allison being with us throughout the process. She came in with immense empathy and compassion. She answered all questions we had, put us at ease, and treated our Lady like she was our baby. She never rushed us, never hurried us, we never felt like she was In the way. She was so wonderful at allowing us time to grieve and say goodbye on our terms. I leave with a greater sense of peace that not only is my dog no longer in pain, but that Dr Allison was there with her to transition her. She was kind, thoughtful, and gentle. Truly could not say enough wonderful things about her and this experience. I would reccomend to any friend that is experiencing this difficult decision to use Dr Allison. Thank you!!

It has taken me one month to the day to muster up the strength to compose this review of the kind, incredible, beyond-caring Dr. Lisa Fieg of CodaPet. Dr. Lisa helped me and my husband say goodbye to our beloved, cherished, adored 15 1/2 year-old Alfie. This was our first time doing this. I can say with all the certainty there is that Dr. Lisa was the most sensitive, caring, ideal type of human being to guide us through this difficult process. She came and sat with all of us, explained everything, and most importantly, Alfie was so comfortable in her company from the start. Dr. Lisa was compassionate, gentle, a very clear communicator, profound, and led this process with such care. Even afterward, which was beyond surreal, Dr. Lisa assured us that she would make sure Alfie traveled safely back with her in the car. She had a lovely basket which meant so much as we didn't know how his body would travel back for cremation. That personal, kind detail made an unbearably painful moment less agonizing. Thank you from the core of our hearts, Dr. Lisa, for proceeding with such love & gentility with our beloved Alfie. We feel like we were meant to find you to help us through Alfie's final moments. We will never forget you.

Dr. Ramos kept in contact with me throughout the day to help guide me in making the right decision for our beloved pet. She explained thoroughly about in home pet euthanasia, and how that would look for us. She was kind, compassionate, and understanding of our needs to make the process as easy as possible. She spent time to get to know our pets and catered to our specific needs for our girl. Every step was explained clearly before proceeding. I am not going to lie, this was a terribly heartbreaking experience, but Dr. Ramos helped make it as stress free as possible. I highly recommend using Dr. Ramos and the Codapet service.
