Dr. Lisa Fieg was very accommodating and compassionate while providing in-home euthanasia services for my rapidly declining Basset Hound. She came out the same night after hearing that my dog was experiencing seizures. I highly recommend her for anytime one has to euthanize their pet and wants to have it done at home.

Dr. Walton and her assistant were incredible. They came to our home the same day we called and showed such kindness and compassion during a very difficult time. Our beloved Tank was suffering, and their gentle care made the transition easier for our family. A few days later, they even sent us a heartfelt sympathy card, which truly extended their warmth and support. We are so grateful for the compassion and professionalism they provided.

About Vet
Dr. Jessica DiGenova was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and has been surrounded by animals for as long as she can remember. Inspired by her mother, who is also a veterinarian, she spent her childhood visiting her mother’s clinic and dreaming of following in her footsteps. She earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Guelph in 2012 and went on to receive her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2016. Dr. DiGenova later completed a one-year internal medicine internship in Los Angeles in 2023, further expanding her medical expertise. Throughout her career, Dr. DiGenova has gained extensive experience in general practice, urgent care, and emergency medicine. These diverse experiences have deepened her understanding of the human–animal bond and the importance of compassionate care through every stage of a pet’s life. While euthanasia is never easy, she believes it can also be a profound act of love—providing peace and relief from suffering. Dr. DiGenova is honored to help families say goodbye to their beloved companions in the comfort and familiarity of home, surrounded by love. Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. DiGenova enjoys spending time with her husband, traveling, hiking, and staying active at the gym. In early 2025, they welcomed their first child, adding even more joy to their growing family. Through her work, Dr. Jessica DiGenova is dedicated to offering compassionate, dignified end-of-life care for pets and meaningful support for the families who love them.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Torrance, CA

Your credit card is required to reserve your appointment. However, no payment is required until the appointment and nothing is due until the appointment is completed

We charge cancellation fee of $100 if an appointment is cancelled less than 4 hours before the start time. If your pet passes away before your appointment you would not be charged a cancellation fee. If the vet you scheduled is able, and you would like their assistance with cremation, then pickup fee would apply instead of euthanasia fee

Other Consideration

If you have a larger pet, your vet may need the help of one friend or family member. Talk to your vet about options and limitations when they reach out to you prior to your appointment, and they will inform you of any extra cost for your situation. 

Options for your pets return home and memorabilia depend on your local provider. Your vet coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes and let you know if there are additional fees for urn delivery. 

Extra time or medications needed can affect the total price. Other factors can be if it is decided that it’s not time to euthanize your pet after the vet has arrive. In that case, only the travel fee, platform fee, and a quality of life consult would apply. 

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.

Dr. Keri provided outstanding care in a very difficult time for our family. The use of 2 sedatives before the final drug was given was especially comforting to our dog and to us. I highly recommend Dr. Keri for her professional and compassionate care.

Dr McCasland exhibited compassion and understanding. She explained the process and gave us the time we needed with Oliver through each step. As painful as it was to see our fur baby pass, Dr McCasland was with us just like a family member with complete support. I cannot thank her enough for her professionalism and compassion.

We were referred to Dr. Lisa Fieg from CodaPet to perform euthanasia on our beloved golden Oliver. She was very aware of our pain and did everything she could to make it easy for us to endure it. She explained the entire procedure and confirmed that Oliver, based on her experience, was indeed in pain. She made us feel at ease, and to accept the fact that it was the best for him. The process was smooth and tranquil to everyone. It is always sad to say goodbye to a loved one, but Dr. Fieg made it a little less painful. If anyone is in a situation like ours with a beloved pet, Dr. Fieg/CodaPet will help you through the process of saying goodbye.

Review by Dr. Lisa Fieg

This was one of the most painful decisions I’ve had to make regarding my sweet companion pup. I am grateful to have found the CodaPet services that offered my beloved pet and I a peaceful and painless way for him to make that sad transition from this life. Dr. Houck was incredibly, sensitive, kind, and lovingly helped my sweet bully boy go from being in extreme pain, to a restful sleep. Thank you Dr. Houck for your gentle words and support throughout the entire process. More importantly for helping me to give Mr. Nemo his last greatest gift, no more suffering, no more fear, no more anxiety, just peace. Rest easy sweet boy💜🐾
