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.

This is the second time Dr. Allison has been there for us in such a difficult time in our lives. I requested her immediately when we knew our 16 month old golden doodle Rutledge's cancer was terminal. She is so very respectful, knowledgeable, loving, kind and calming. The peace we felt in this process at home was priceless. My sweet baby crossed over with his family and his animal family by his side while eating hotdog and whipped cream. Words are just not enough to describe what Dr. Allison gives to her patients and their families. Thank you so much for providing this alternative to traditional euthanasia at the office. Thank you again Dr. Allison for helping carrying the weight of something so painful for us.

Dr. Steve and his wife was so kind and helpful with Roxy and all the pain I have of losing my best friend (Roxy). They are so kind and considerate of all we went though. Thank you so much.

Dr.Becca and her colleague made me feel so calm and comfortable. I can't thank them enough for making such a tough day so much easier on my family and I. CodaPet was able to give us a beautiful, peaceful memory of saying goodbye to our good boy Bagel.

Dr. Silberman and his wife were amazing during this extremely difficult time. They were patient and compassionate with us and our dog, and we are so grateful for them. Being able to say goodbye in our dog's happy place was as good as this terrible situation could get.

Once we decided that our 15-year-old dog with kidney disease was no longer enjoying life, we discussed in-home pet euthanasia with our vet. He recommended CodaPet, which is staffed with vets that travel to you. Dr. April Leblanc came to our home, and her energy was so calming and soothing. When she placed her hand on our pet's head, we could see our dog relax — our lil' girl was in good hands. The process was simple and loving. Whatever fears we had, Dr. April help to ease them. It's a painful experience, but Coda pet and April made it all much easier to bear.

Saying goodbye to my companion and best friend, Coco, was the hardest thing I have done. Dr. Nicolette Michelli made the experience pleasant, despite the situation. She was very patient with us and you could tell she sincerely cared. She even went above and beyond to make sure I had received Coco's ashes. I have three more fur babies and as long as Dr. Nicolette Michelli is available, I know the experience will be pleasant when that time comes again.
