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.

After making the very difficult decision to say goodbye to our geriatric canine companion, Dr. Kayla Mochizuki made the whole experience as positive as it could be. She allowed us to take our time at home with our boy, in an environment that eliminated any anxiety on his part. She was compassionate, followed up with us and made us all feel at ease. I can not speak highly enough of Dr. Kayla Mochizuki.

Dr. Lydia was amazing, compassionate, gave ample information so we could be more prepared for the loss of our dear pet. Significantly better experience than taking my dog to the vet. I felt like the family was able to surround our pet with love and deep respect, making the process a bit less difficult. So very hard to lose a 4 legged family member. Thank you, Dr. Lydia!

It is with much gratitude that I will gladly leave this review for Josh Williams with CodaPet, who came to our home at a moment's notice in the evening to euthanize our beloved dog Pippin. We have had many pets, cats, dogs and horses and unfortunately had to euthanize many of them over the years. We have never experienced such kindness, compassion and understanding before we met Josh. He was gentle, kind and respectful to Pippin throughout the procedure. Josh also showed compassion for us and our other pets. He explained the whole procedure and what to expect before and after. He took his time and never did we feel rushed. The thing that struck me was that he advised us to have all other pets come say goodbye to Pippin, especially his mate Emma who grew up alongside him. They all did, especially Emma. She still goes back and circles the site where Pippin passed away. After Pippin was gone, Josh gave us private time to say our last goodbyes. Josh was prepared, he even brought a stretcher with him to transport Pippin to his car. He made us feel understood and knowing that Pippin was in good hands afterwards helped us. Josh took care of bringing Pip to the crematorium and we will soon have his ashes back. Josh, we will recommend you to all our friends and neighbors. Niki and Nick Nickerson

Dr. Brittany was so helpful and reassuring with this difficult decision. I appreciate her so much 💕 She was wonderful with communication, patience, emotional support, and obviously skills/knowledge of the process! Thank you so much for helping guide us through one of our toughest moments.

Dr. Clem was amazing. Our dog was 19 years old when the decision was made to transition her out of her tired little body. Our dog was calm, we were with her and Dr. Clem was professional thoughout the entire process. I defintely recommend her for in-home euthanasia. We'll use her again for our future pets.
