Dr Keyser is one of the kindest and compassionate vets I have met. She made the saddest day easier than I could ever imagine. I have had many fur babies and have used several vets in Columbus over the years. This was the first time with euthanasia. Thank you so much Dr Keyser for taking care of Oscar and myself. I sure do miss him so much! All of my family is so appreciative that you took such good care of us.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Columbus, GA

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.

Dr. Lowman was wonderful. She helped us transition our cat of 9 years in a way that was meaningful and less painful in a familiar environment that lessened the stress on our cat. Her bedside manner is unparalleled. She is extremely compassionate, sensitive, professional and reliable in a way that is a rare find these days. I strongly recommend her to anyone who is focusing on quality of life for their pet.

Dr. Clem made one of the worst days of my life just a little bit more bearable. I didn't have to think or really talk, she handled every step perfectly. I got my Lola back quickly and personally delivered. I hated having to make this decision but I am SOO thankful I chose Mr. Clem.

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Keyser and the incredible care she provided during a difficult time for my soul dog. Dr. Keyser’s gentleness, kindness, and compassion were truly remarkable. She went above and beyond to accommodate all of my special requests and ensured that my fur baby’s last moments were filled with peace and comfort. Having Dr. Keyser by my side was invaluable, and I cannot imagine my boy’s last day being any different. Her presence brought me immense peace during a heartbreaking moment, and she was a huge part of the peace I feel in the days that have followed. The ceremony she conducted was the most calming, beautiful, and peaceful experience I could have hoped for. If you’re considering in-home pet euthanasia, I can assure you that it is worth every single penny, especially with Dr. Keyser. Thank you, Dr. Keyser, for your exceptional service and unwavering support.

It was so comforting having Dr. Roberts facilitate Dozers passing. She let me pace the process and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience on such a sad day.

It was time to say goodbye to our senior dog, Teek. He had been ill and the symptoms were becoming more apparent. We knew it was time... Dr. Martin was able to come quickly, and was such a comfort in helping us with the decision and the procedure. Having had some experience prior, we knew what to expect. Dr. Martin took even more care, and made the process more bearable. I highly recommend his services.

Dr Christina, was very sweet to my Febe. I wanted Febe's last moments at home with her family. She was a happy girl and she is missed terribly. But this was so much easier for her. Thank You so much for being there for us.
