Pre-Medication
The veterinarian will administer an initial sedative or anesthetic to help your pet relax and become pain-free, ensuring they are comfortable and at ease.

Questions you may have
The total cost includes the in-home pet euthanasia service fee, any applicable travel fees, and a platform fee. Depending on your preferences, additional fees may apply for cremation services or memorial keepsakes.
During your appointment, your vet will carefully confirm your preferred aftercare option with you. If you choose cremation, your vet will manage your pet’s gentle transportation to a local crematorium. If your selected cremation service includes receiving your pet’s ashes, your vet will clearly explain the process for returning your pet's ashes and provide an estimated timeline for their return.
You have the option to have your vet respectfully transport your pet to the crematorium. Depending on your preference, your pet’s ashes can either be lovingly returned to you or respectfully spread with other pets.
Note: If you choose to have your pet’s ashes returned to you, your vet will coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes at the time of your appointment.
We allow cancellations at no fee to you for appointments canceled more than 4 hours before your start time. If you cancel your appointment less than 4 hours before your appointment time you will be subject to a cancellation fee of $100.
Your vet reserves time in their schedule exclusively for you, so we ask you to cancel as soon as you are able so that your vet may help another family in need.
Note: You can cancel or reschedule your appointment on your booking confirmation page or find a link to it in your booking confirmation email.
If your pet passes naturally before your scheduled euthanasia appointment, you may cancel at any time prior to your vet's arrival without incurring any fees. If you'd still like assistance arranging transportation for cremation, you can request your vet provide a deceased pet pick-up and cremation services.
Note: You can cancel or reschedule your appointment on your booking confirmation page or find a link to it in your booking confirmation email.
Yes, your vet will offer a variety of meaningful memorabilia you can purchase if you choose to request the return of your pet's ashes. After selecting your vet and preferred cremation option, you'll have the opportunity to review and choose from available keepsake options. You may also find comfort in exploring our suggestions for pet memorial ideas.
Note: You may also choose to add the memorabilia or change your mind about your choice at the time of your appointment.
In the case of wanting a private burial, if your city/county regulations allow, you can choose to bury your pet. Please check local regulations to see if this is legal in your area.
If you want to bury your pet in a cemetery, you will need to choose and make arrangements with a local pet cemetery before the euthanasia appointment. Please be sure to let your CodaPet vet know if you have planned for such a burial.
Note: Your vet can only assist with cremation options, and does not handle burials of any type.
If you have a larger pet, your vet may need the help of a friend or family member. When your vet contacts you prior to your appointment, talk to them about options and limitations, and they will inform you of any extra cost for your situation.
Options for your pet's return home and memorabilia depend on your local provider. Your vet will coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes and let you know if there are additional fees for urn delivery.
During in-home pet euthanasia, your veterinarian will first ensure your pet is comfortable by administering a gentle sedative, allowing your pet to relax peacefully. Once fully sedated, the veterinarian will give the euthanasia solution, which painlessly stops your pet's heart within moments. You'll have as much time as needed to say goodbye, and afterward, your veterinarian will discuss aftercare options with you, such as cremation or burial arrangements.

Knowing when it’s time often involves observing your pet’s quality of life closely. Key signs include persistent pain, loss of appetite, decreased mobility, difficulty breathing, and loss of interest in activities they once enjoyed. Trust your instincts—if your pet has more bad days than good, it might be time. Discussing these concerns with your veterinarian can also provide valuable clarity.

Dr. Briell Dzierga is an angel. We had to say goodbye to our sweet 20yr old kitty, Belle, two weeks ago. Dr. Dzierga was more amazing and wonderful than I could have wished for. I can't even put into words. She did not rush us during the process. It was a peaceful process. We are still grieving but Dr. Dzierga was the most caring person I've ever met and, when it comes time for our other senior kitties, I will be calling Dr. Dzierga.
In one of the most devastating moments of our lives, we were fortunate to be met with extraordinary compassion. The At- home euthanasia of our beloved Doberman, Lex, was carried out with such tenderness and compassion by the deeply kind and understanding Dr. Briell Dzierga. Her presence brought a sense of calm into our home-transforming what could have been purely heartbreaking into something peaceful, respectful and full of love. She took the time to listen, to honor Lex’s life, and to make sure every step was handled with gentle care. Her demeanor was both professional and profoundly human; she understood the depth of our pain and offered quiet support that made all the difference. While saying goodbye is never easy, Dr. Dzierga helped us navigate it with grace, we’re so thankful that even in sorrow, we were surrounded by kindness.
Deciding to let our sweet cat, Toby, go was the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life. But it was clear his cancer was beating him, and there was nothing more we could do for him. We couldn't stand to see him suffer. I called "Codapet". The person I spoke with on the phone was so kind and considerate. She took all of my information, and thankfully, Dr. Lisa Fieg was able to come to our home that afternoon. She was very calm and gentle with our Toby. She explained the procedure well and made sure we didn't have any questions. We sincerely appreciated the time she gave us to hold him during the process. She even stepped out of the room, allowing us to be with him alone, after he passed. Everything went very smoothly and took about an hour. I had a friend who put her dog to sleep at home. She kept telling me it was a "beautiful experience!" I'm not going to lie. It wasn't "beautiful" to me. There was no way around it being anything other than a gut-wrenching experience. We were losing something we loved dearly! I cried so hard, I could barely see! I would have given an arm and a leg not to have needed to make that call that day! But, it had to be done. For that reason, this company, Codapet, and Dr. Lisa were a Godsend. I would highly recommend them to anyone facing an end-of-life decision for their pet. Everyone we came in contact with was sincere, respectful, beyond caring, and professional. Everything was timely and efficient, but never felt rushed or robotic. That day, 4/21/25, was our worst nightmare, but Codapet and Dr. Fieg made it the best that it could be. She got us through it and gave our sweet boy the comfortable release he needed, while he was held by two people who loved and adored him. For that, we are eternally grateful.
Dr Kari was so kind and compassionate. She did an excellent job of explaining every part of the process and allowed us time to say good bye. I highly recommend her.
Worst time of our lives, having to let our sweet kitty go. Dr. Dover earned her 5 star rating by being the most wonderfully compassionate person you could ever hope for in the height of our despair. Her kindness will not be forgotten.
Dr. Karen Duncan is a loving beautiful soul, an angel. Words cannot express our sincere gratitude. She was so kind, caring and compassionate walking us through the entire process. Having to euthanize a fur baby is one of the hardest things to do. Dr. Karen understood how hard this was for us to lose our sweet 16-year-old kitty, Mickey. She took the time to listen, let us share how special our fur baby Mickey was/is. Her presence and demeanor made all of us feel comfortable. We were able to pet Mickey and love him up in his last final moments – a true blessing as we know he passed peacefully and gracefully. Dr. Karen gave us time to say one last final goodbye, making sure his younger brothers and sister had time to say goodbye as well. She then, with the utmost of kindness, wrapped Mickey in a blanket and placed him in a beautiful basket. We highly recommend Dr. Karen and Codapet to anyone who loves their pet as family and is faced with the difficult decision to euthanize.
