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.

I highly recommend CodaPet, and Dr. Colleen Meuse. A complex process made simple. Online scheduling was easy and accommodating for my families needs. Dr. Meuse followed up with text/email through the entire process. She was gentle & loving with our cat. We are forever grateful for her compassion care and service.

Cannot thank Jessica Mumm enough for helping make one of our worst 24 hours into a beautiful goodbye. I think all pet owners can understand the difficulties of knowing when it’s the “right time” to say goodbye and I am so appreciative of her assessment and reassurance that we made the right decision. She took her time to explain the process and gave us as much time as we needed. She had such a loving and gentle approach to everything. The sympathy card we received in the mail weeks later meant so much to us as well. As weird as this is to say, I hope we can use CodaPet and Jessica Mum in the future with our other pets when that time comes.

This was our first experience with at-home euthanasia, and we are so grateful for Dr. Courtney’s presence. She was incredibly comforting and handled everything with such grace, making a heartbreaking situation as peaceful and gentle as it could possibly be. If given the option, I'd chose to go this route over bring them into the vet clinic. Watching how calm my Peach was and how peaceful her last moments were made everything so much easier.

Dr. Clem is a kind and compassionate vet who offers an invaluable service. If you ever have to face the heartbreaking decision to put your pet down, I highly recommend her. She will make a difficult time much easier.

This experience was so helpful to us, saying goodbye to our beloved cat Olive. Dr. Renee was so gentle, patient and very kind. We were able to say goodbye in our home and less stress for Olive and ourselves. I would say it was as peaceful it could get under the circumstances. It was not an easy situation and this experience made it easier for us.

The experience of having to say goodbye to a beloved pet(s) is very difficult because they are family. Dr. Kelsey Jones with CodaPet made our tough decision bearable. She came to our home and sat on the floor with our dog Charlie and allowed us to take our time to visit and say goodbye in his own surroundings, treats and all. We cannot express our gratitude to Dr. Kelsey for being there for us and sincerely caring. Thank You
