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.

During one of the hardest moments for our family, Dr. Jenny Krueger showed such incredible compassion, kindness, and care. Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is never easy, but she made the entire experience feel peaceful and comforting. She took the time to explain everything, never rushed us, and treated our baby with so much love and dignity. Her gentle approach and genuine empathy meant more to us than words can express. We are so grateful for the support and comfort she gave our family during such a heartbreaking time. Thank you for helping us through one of the most difficult days with so much compassion.

We are so grateful that Dr. Amanda McWreath could support us in one of our most difficult times as we let our "Sammy Girl" run free, again. This was our first time using in home pet euthanasia, and we are thankful that Sam could go peacefully in her home that she loved.

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.Sims was absolutely the best.. she was sincere and compassionate. As sad as the experience was, she made myself and my daughter feel at ease. The finishing touch was how she removed our cat, in a comforting basket and blanket. I would recommend her service 110%

I was dreading all week. Pets become one of the most important part of a family bringing moments that you will never forget with them. Those last moments you spend with them are the most critical for them as much as they are for you. I have never been through such a peaceful experience with the loss of a animal. Its always been difficult. This experience was so peaceful for us and for our dear Ruger. Thank you Dr. Sarah! Our family is grateful for who you are!
