Dr. Neri is truly an angel. She recently helped me through the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do—saying goodbye to my beloved baby, Luna. Dr. Neri came to my home, which made an incredibly difficult experience just a little more bearable. She explained everything with such care and gentleness, making sure I understood the process and what was best for Luna. Before the scheduled day, she reached out to me personally, asking if I had any questions and wanting to know more about Luna. That level of compassion showed me just how much she truly cares about both her patients and the families she supports. On the day of, her calm and empathetic presence was exactly what I needed. She treated Luna with love and respect, and that meant the world to me. I can’t express how grateful I am for Dr. Neri’s kindness and professionalism. She made an unbearable situation just a little easier, and I will always be thankful for that.

Graduating from North Carolina State University with both her undergraduate and veterinary degrees, Dr. Causey has been practicing companion animal medicine in North Carolina and Virginia since 2004. With a compassionate and empathetic approach, she values providing exceptional medical care and forming partnerships with pet parents, offering a unique blend of veterinary expertise and counseling skills to those experiencing loss. Driven by a passion for veterinary medicine ignited during her teenage years following the loss of one of her own beloved pets, Dr. Causey understands the profound bond between humans and animals.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Cary, NC

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.

I had to make the very difficult decision to put my sweet pup dog Ava to rest. She was diagnosed with a mammary tumor back in July 2024. I searched around for a local in home euthanasia and scheduled with Dr. Kelly Neri. I then canceled early that morning hoping I could have one last weekend. Unfortunately she wasn't able to keep any food or water down and I contacted Dr. Kelly late Friday near midnight. I'll forever be grateful to you for going out of your way late on a cold night to help Ava finally be at piece without suffering. Thank you again for you and your son being so kind and compassionate during one of my hardest days having to say goodbye.

Dr Struble was so compassionate and understanding and explained the process. She gave us time to process and asking us before moving on to the next step. We so appreciate this service and having her come to our home so we could say our goodbyes to our sweet Lexi girl. Thank you Dr Struble and CodaPet.

During such a difficult time recognizing that our 12 year old lab had reached the end of his life, we were comforted to find an option for in home euthanasia. Dr. Lowman was incredible kind and compassionate. She explained the process and made sure we were ready and had time to say our goodbyes.

Our connection with Dr Neir was one of compassion and empty. Our initial contact was to address any questions we had as a family . When arriving to the house her first thoughts were for Naboo to make sure we kept her as come, relaxed reducing any anxiety knowing that there would be someone new in the house. Dr Neir first engaged with Naboo and said we could take a much time as needed for us and Naboo. This was very comforting for our family and wants to thank Dr Neri for keep such good care of Naboo in this time. Thank you for being kind and thinking of our family with the steps you took to make this a peaceful transfer. The Pecks

Dr Natalie Dennis was wonderful. She was caring and compassionate. It was very peaceful. They responded promptly to my inquiry and were upfront about the services provided and the cost. It made my furbabies passing a less traumatic experience. Would highly recommend.
