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.

We were so thankful for ability to remain at home with our family dog. It made this sad experience at least more comfortable both for our sick dog and for us. I highly recommend this service. Dr.Kelly was very kind and caring throughout the process.

Dr Sims was very calm and compassionate. She shows her compassion for her love of animals. I was at peace when she removed my animal with such respect in a beautiful basket and blanket. I highly recommend Dr Sims.

CodaPet was absolutely amazing to us during our difficult time with losing our precious cat, Harry. Everyone I talked to on the phone, along with the doctor that came to our home, were compassionate and sympathetic. Everything was explained to us from the set up to the departure. I will definitely choose CodaPet again when the time comes for us to make the difficult and tough decision for our remaining pets.

Dr Sara was so gentle and reassuring. She didn't rush us at any point in time. I went on the website at 5am and had a 10am appointment. I'm so glad I chose Codapet as my option for my dog

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.

Dr. Collins was truly wonderful. She walked us through the entire process with such compassion, explaining what would happen and gently preparing us for each step. She gave us all the time we needed with our sweet girl and helped us create beautiful keepsakes with her paw prints and nose print. We are deeply grateful for Dr. Collins and for this service, which allowed Dolly to pass peacefully in her own backyard, surrounded by love.
