Dr. Magnotta was accommodating with her availability, and was even able to come help us earlier than anticipated as our cat's health exponentially deteriorated overnight. We know Dr. Magnotta helped us make our cat as comfortable as possible as we said goodbye. It was one of the hardest days of my life, but Dr. Magnotta helped give me peace of mind knowing my cat Sadie felt no pain and was cared for with kindness. Dr. Magnotta was so compassionate and caring. She made us feel cared for, and we felt reassured that we were making the right decision. I highly recommend Dr. Magnotta.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Torrington, CT

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.

In home pet euthanasia with CodaPet’s network of veterinarians provides loving, end-of-life care when you need it most. Once you schedule a visit online, you will receive a confirmation, and your vet will make sure everything is arranged with care and clarity.

When your vet arrives, they’ll begin with a gentle assessment to reassure you of your decision and answer any questions you may have. Your vet will always move at your pace, giving you the time and space you need to say goodbye in your own way.

When you are ready, your vet will gently administer a sedative so your pet can relax and drift into a deep, peaceful sleep. After the sedation has fully taken effect, a final, humane medication is given, allowing for a calm and painless passing surrounded by love.

If you choose aftercare, your vet will respectfully care for your pet and transport them for cremation, handling every step with dignity and compassion.

In home euthanasia with CodaPet’s network of veterinarians in Torrington and the surrounding areas begins at around $300. Your final cost may vary based on your pet’s size, your location, and any additional services you choose—such as private or communal cremation, ashes returned in an urn, or personalized keepsakes.

When scheduling a vet visit to your home, you’ll first receive a detailed, upfront price estimate according to your specific needs before confirming a visit. If you have questions or need support at any point, you can call (959) 202-2137.

This was the best experience considering the circumstances and I cannot thank Lara enough for her empathy and compassion. This was the most humane way I could imagine and would only ever consider going this route should I need to in the future. I feel at peace with the way we were able to send off our sweet family pup of 14 years.

Compassionate, a welcomed skilled and calm presence, and providing a comfortable and peaceful transition- the first thoughts that come to mind when reflecting on the assistance of Dr Rebecca Houck for our family member, Ella, while providing in home pet euthanasia. Rebecca had excellent communication before and during her visit with us and even sent us a hand written card in the days following. She was very calm and quick in her preparation (the situation required such). I could tell in her interaction with my beautiful, 12 year old girl, that this was as much an act of love for her as it was for me. Her gentle introduction to our golden doodle and loving pets were genuine and appreciated by all. I would highly recommend her to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation.

Dr. Keri Wasmoen helped make the difficult process of putting our 11 year old Cooper down as smooth and respectful as possible. I would recommend her for this difficult process every pet owner needs to go through at some point.

We had to say goodbye to our sweet boy Cooper last week. Since he was always afraid of the car having Dr Gary seemed like the best option so he could be home for his end of life. Dr Gary was very kind, compassionate and patient with us through the process. I also appreciated that he was prompt in returning the remains of Cooper so we can spread him over his favorite places. Thank you Dr Gary for helping Cooper to his rainbow bridge.

Dr Silberman is genuinely one of the nicest, patient, kind humans I’ve ever met. Very in tune to what would make you comfortable. Treated my beloved Pita with the upmost tenderness and respect. Insightful with the difficulty yet necessary decision we had to make. Yes Dr Silberman it was a mitzvah. Thank you for your goodness.
