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.

I can't say enough nice things about Dr Catherine Whitman, this is a hard thing to do and she made Dixie comfortable and me as well. Made sure I had time to grieve and showed a lot of compassion for my girl . This is one tough decision to make but it was the right one for us. Thank you.
They made a difficult thing an easier more comforting experience. I really appreciate the care and support that Dr. Bates provided during the process.
The Coda vet service is very supportive and helpful during a difficult time. Our vet made sure that our dog was comfortable during the process and it felt like she was part of our family. It is so much less stressful for your pet to be at home when they transition and we would highly recommend Coda.
From the moment she arrived, Dr. Stadler was kind, calm, and deeply respectful of both Pumpkin and our family. She took the time to clearly explain each step of the process, which brought a sense of peace and reassurance during an otherwise overwhelming moment. What mattered most to me was that Pumpkin never felt panicked or distressed, and Dr. Stadler ensured that happened. The entire experience was handled with such gentleness and clarity. Everything felt straightforward, unhurried, and dignified—exactly what you hope for in a situation like this. I will always be thankful for the comfort she provided, not just to Pumpkin, but to all of us.
Dr. Elizabeth Parks was stunningly talented in helping us say goodbye to our beloved golden retriever Brooks. We had little advance knowledge he would decline overnight. She carefully followed our wishes and helped guide us through the process. She lovingly eased our pet - and us - through the process. I especially appreciated the care and attention to detail she provided at the end. She lovingly placed him on a blanket on the stretcher and made a pillow for his head. She tucked another print blanket over him ticking it all around his torso. My last memory of him will forever be how sweet and comfortable he looked with his head and paws out just like he would sleep on our couch. Bless Dr. Parks for her compassion, intuitive understanding and skill.
Thank you Dr. Karen for making a very hard and sad time into a very understanding and reassuring one. You are truly an angel. Autumn was very loved, and even though it still hurts, you helped us through the whole process.
