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.

There are no words to fully describe the gratitude I have for Dr. laura. Losing my best friend, Jack, was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to go through. His pain progressed so rapidly,almost overnight and after a devastating Saturday night for both of us, I was desperate for help! Not only did she reply within less than a hour of me asking for help on the codapet website at 9 at night but she stepped in and came to our house the very next day, on a Sunday! I was struggling so much with the guilt of whether I was making the right choice. She sat with me, listened, and gently agreed that choosing peace before he became completely miserable was the greatest act of love I could give him. Her knowledge, validation, and kindness gave me a sense of peace I didn't think was possible in such a dark moment. Jack was completely comfortable with her right away, and she treated him with such genuine sweetness. Seeing him so calm with her also made the process easier! She didn't mind where we started the process, she gave Jack time to decide where he was most comfortable. She explained every single step, making sure we knew exactly what to expect, she was gentle with him every step so he would stay comfortable the whole time. She never once made us feel rushed. We were given all the time we needed to sit, hold him and say our final goodbyes. She turned a devastating transition into a beautiful, dignified, and calm experience for my sweet boy in the comfort of his own home. She is truly an angel, and I cannot recommend her enough!!

There are endless things I could say about Dr. Megan Lowman, yet somehow none of them feel big enough to truly capture who she is. It may sound corny to say she has wings on her back—but sometimes the most heartfelt truths do sound that way. Because she does. From the moment she walks through the door, her empathy, kindness, and love fill every corner of the room. Dr. Megan has now guided us through saying goodbye to two beloved members of our family—first Paddington, and most recently, Teddy. When we learned what Teddy was facing, I knew instantly that she was the only person I wanted by our side. She doesn’t just provide a service; she feels like family. She understands your heartbreak without you needing to explain it, and she stays fully present, offering steady compassion and genuine love in every moment. I felt an immediate connection to her during Paddington’s passing—a deep sense of gratitude and trust from the very beginning. So when it was Teddy’s time, there was no question that we needed that same tenderness and grace. And once again, the moment she arrived, the fear, anxiety, and overwhelming sadness softened. In their place, she brought calm, comfort, and peace. Dr. Megan, you are truly extraordinary. Your compassion fills a space in a way that words can hardly describe. I am profoundly grateful—for your kindness, your warmth, and the love you showed my sweet Teddy. The difference you made in our home during such a painful moment is something I will always carry with me. I am also deeply thankful to you and to Codpet for providing such a gentle, thoughtful service. Being able to let Teddy fall asleep in my office—one of his favorite places—without the disruption of a car ride, without stress or confusion, and without making that heartbreaking drive home alone… it was more than I could have hoped for. It was a gift. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, Krista Geller.

Natalie came to the house to help me say goodbye to my 19 yo Aussie. She was polite, professional and funny too. She explained everything before she did it, was super patient with my other dog, who had to stick her nose in whatever she was doing. She stayed for a while to be certain everything was good, as good as it can be when putting an old freind down. She was very gentle. I highly recommend her if ever you need this service. Thanks Natalie!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. April from CodaPet. Sometimes, you meet people and right away, you just feel that there's something special in their soul, and for me Dr. April is one of those people. She brought with her a warm, soothing energy that made the last moments with our pet special. She took the time to explain everything and answer any questions we had, she was absolutely wonderful with our children, we never felt rushed and her empathy was evident. Nothing makes the process less heartbreaking, but our family is glad we had her to help guide us through it.

Dr. Lara treated Winston—and us—with the utmost respect and compassion as she helped him prepare to cross the rainbow bridge. She never rushed the process, giving Winston and our family the time we needed to say goodbye and prepare ourselves. Afterward, she gently assisted us in carrying him to his resting place. Although it was an incredibly sad moment for us, Dr. Lara felt like a member of the family, guiding and supporting us through Winston’s final goodbye. Thank you Dr. Lara.

Dr Gregory Macdonald was the BEST. She knew exactly what to say…how to reassure us that Molly would not suffer, left us private time, answered all our questions…even helped my husband carry Molly to her final resting place in our back yard. HEr kindness will not be forgotten. THank you. I would highly recommend Dr McDonald and the CodaPet service.
