Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Ann Arbor, MI
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.

We have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Chapman and our experience with CodaPet in Austin. We had to make a last minute decision for our dog who was suffering from aggressive cancer and not only was Dr. Chapman available to do this for us, but she was also willing to move up our appointment when we realized we needed it sooner than our original scheduled time. Dr. Chapman's communication was amazing from start to finish, communicating through texts up until she arrived (letting us know when to expect her and the cremation company). When she got to our home, she knocked quietly, which we found respectful. Her manner was calming and throughout the entire painful process, she was thorough, explained the process the entire time, made sure we understood what was going on, gave us time to say our goodbyes, and made everything as peaceful as she could. When everything was finished, she explained the next steps, followed up with texts after she left, and made sure that the cremation company (who I also highly recommend) followed up with instructions of their own. The whole process was seamless and as painless as it could be, considering. I would highly recommend Dr. Chapman and CodaPet if and when you're in need of this service.
Letting go of your family pet is never easy. Dr. Lori made this experience very peaceful. She gave us the time and space needed to say goodbye properly. Would recommend 10/10.
Cara was such an incredible blessing to our family. Our 16 year old border collie lab mix Dorothy was ready to transition and Cara facilitated such a loving and respectful passing. The fact that she came to our home made such a difference! Dorothy could be surrounded by those who loved her in a setting she felt safe and familiar in. Cara couldn’t have been more kind, patient and capable. Thank you forever for making this painful day a beautiful day as well.
Dr Lauren was great! This was our fourth pet we’ve had to put down, and Dr Lauren made the experience a calm and peaceful one for our family. She’s very empathetic and gave us plenty of time and space to say our goodbyes.
"Dr. Thomas was compassionate and caring during the entire process. Although it was a very sad situation I felt at peace at the end. My dog couldn’t have been in better hands. Thank you again Dr. Thomas for all you did for Cody and myself."
Dr. Briell Dzierga was wonderful. This was our first time using an in home pet euthanasia service. We never knew this was even an option until recently. We knew we wanted our furbaby, Misty Day, to pass with us at home and not in some strange place she visits once a year. Dr. Dzierga explained the process to us and got to know us. She listened as we grieved and shared stories. She didn't rush us and she helped talk to our 8 year old who wanted to be there, too, to say goodbye to her grandparents cat. She handled all the cremation and transfer details and gave us a sweet pawprint keepsake. She explained everything and all our options for arrangements. No pressure. She was so, so kind. We received a sweet condolence card where she had so much detail on all the personal stories we shared. I would highly recommend her and her services. We loved her! ❤️ Christina, Damien and Esmae Adeline
