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.

Layla was a travel companion, a family member, a walking buddy and my "baby girl". She was a 16 year old terrier mix. She loved to play ball, cuddle on the couch and eat broccoli. Layla had Mast Cell cancer and when she experienced pain, I knew it was time to comfort her. We agonized over the decision and decided the best way to honor her life was to have Dr. Cat come to the house. Dr Cat's calm, compassionate & friendly demeanor was a pleasant surprise in an otherwise painful situation. Layla was given a sedative and then put into a deep sleep before the final shot was given. Layla passed away peacefully on my husband's lap.
Dr. Dawn was absolutely incredible. She was so understanding of our situation and gave our sweet dog the best care. We couldn’t have asked for a better vet to have helped us through this difficult time.
This was sadly the second time in just over a year that we needed Dr. Struble's services. I can't say enough great things about having a Vet come to your home when you have to make the decision to let your cherished pet go. There is no travel stress for you or your pet. They are able to be in familiar, comfortable surroundings. Dr. Struble is kind and very gentle. She has chosen to provide a difficult, but essential service and I thank her profusely for it and the way she handles it.
Our experience with Dr. Shannon Nakaya was superb. We had a wonderful 16.5 year old Honey Girl that God was calling. Our personal in-home pet euthanasia experience, was a beautiful, wonderful send off for our dog. Dr. Shannon was kind, graceful, and comforting. Also of note, we have known Dr. Nakaya for around 25 years, as she has been the vet for our parrot's health as well. I would never take any family member (pet), to a vet office to send to heaven, as personal in-home pet euthanasia is definitely the way to go, and Dr. Nakaya is the best ! Highly and strongly recommend. The whole experience was beautiful !
What an amazing service! We are so grateful that Dr Devlin was able to make our Harlow's last moments so peaceful. I would highly recommend this to anyone. The convenience is great of course, but also knowing that your pet is relaxed and not being traumatized is worth every penny. They make it easy for you to spend your time with your pet, as it should be. Thank you again.
Dr Kristina Pugh helped us provide our cat Chloe with a peaceful and dignified passing in her home surrounded by her loved ones. She was respectful and informative while answering our questions and assisting with our decisions.
