At-Home Pet Euthanasia
Schedule a licensed veterinarian to provide a peaceful passing for your beloved pet in the comfort of your home, surrounded by loved ones.
Initial Contact
Your vet will reach out to you prior to your appointment to answer any questions you may have and address any special circumstances or concerns.
At-Home Assessment
Your vet will make an assessment of your pet’s health and quality of life to provide guidance to ensure your decision is informed.
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.
Euthanasia
The veterinarian will first ensure your pet is fully sedated before gently administering anesthesia which will quickly slow down your pet’s respiratory system until the heart finally stops beating. In most cases, this process takes less than a minute.
Travel Fee
This reflects the cost associated with the distance a licensed vet will need to travel should your location fall outside their regular service area.
Platform Fee
A small percentage of the total supports vets with non-medical items, allowing them to spend more time caring for pets.

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.

Our in home pet euthanasia was the kindest thing we could have ever done for our beloved bulldog. She was our faithful companion for 12 beautiful years and Dr. Gibson provided the most beautiful end of life transition we could have asked for. Our girl was not nervous or in pain. Dr. Gibson explained every part of the process and we were so comforted by every step. If its time for the hard goodbye for your beloved four legged family please consider this. We could not be more happy with the peaceful goodbye of our girl. Thank you Dr. Gibson.
As you all know our pets don’t live long enough and frequently we have to say goodbye to each one of them too soon. Euthanasia in veterinarians office or Vetranarian hospital is cold. Coda Pet and Dr. Pruett gave our family peace of mind when dealing with the loss of our beloved Katy Belle. I highly recommend Coda Pet.
Difficult as it was, we made the right decision to euthanize our dear friend Harper after learning of her serious medical condition. We heard of Dr. Wasmoen through our veterinary clinic. She was outstanding in helping us get through the process. Dr. Wasmoen made herself available when we finally made the decision to euthanize Harper at our home. Her communication skills were excellent. Dr. Wasmoen clearly explained what she was doing, how our dog could respond & allowed us the time we needed to get through it. We were both very emotional & Dr. Wasmoen was gentle, comforting & supportive. Our dear Harper left our home peacefully in her care in a comfortable basket. We are grateful for her outstanding care and highly recommend Dr. Wasmoen. Arlene & Rob
Dr Keri was Fabulous!! She took such a loving approach to my Big Boy Radar! He acknowledged her with a kiss, in which he was never one to give too many. I believe he knew she was there to help him cross over. And to ease his pain. I am so Grateful that I chose CodaPet and had her as his Dr. She’s the Best, so passionate and caring about what she does and how. I Highly Recommend anyone needing this sad unfortunate service to call them and ask for her. And I know I’m speaking for Radar as well. Knowing he was in so much pain and ready for the journey. Thank you so much Dr. Keri for being so kind and supportive. Taking care of my Baby 💔💔🐾🐾
Dr. Briell was amazing! She was so patient, explained everything she was going to do before she did it, and really helped us during a very difficult time. Dr.Briell got to know our Emma which really meant a lot. Emma mattered to her and us. I had wondered if I was doing the right thing at the right time. Emma had a good day which made me double think my decision. Dr. Briell pointed out some of Emma’s behaviors as we were watching her walk around. She picked up on her pain and I could then see it too. This reassurance was priceless to me. I held my precious Emma in her final moments and was comforted in the fact that she was finally free of her pain. She was at peace. Dr. Briell then took great care of our fur baby, cradling her in a soft blanket and placing her in a new pet bed. We had asked for her to be cremated and Dr. Briell took care of that for us. Looking back, it was a very beautiful experience. We can’t thank Dr. Briell enough for her care and kindness!
Dr. Roberts was very knowledgeable about greyhounds and as dedicated greyhound rescuers, that was important to us. It was a nice added plus. She was very kind, had no issues with our other 2 greyhounds. She took her time, made sure we were comfortable with our 15 year old Kenny's passing when the time came. She gave us time alone with him after his passing. It was also important for our other greyhounds to be able to say goodbye too.
