We used Dr. Neri in September 2024 for the first time when we had to say goodbye to our fur baby. She was wonderful to work with, empathetic and kind. When it came time to call someone for our other fur baby during the holidays, Dr. Neri happened to be the vet available again. I didn't expect her to remember us, but she did, and she was just as empathetic and kind as she was the first time. She walked us through the process, gave us time to cuddle our babies, and helped our fur babies feel comfortable, spoiled, and loved as they crossed the rainbow bridge. We are truly grateful to have had such a sweet spirit assist our babies with their final journey.

Dr. Suzanne Causey, a native of North Carolina, has dedicated her life to serving both animals and their human companions. 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. She recognizes that the loss of a pet can be a deeply emotional experience, and her innate gift for supporting those in distress enables her to provide comfort and solace during these difficult times. Dr. Causey's commitment to serving her community extends beyond veterinary care; she is also actively involved in church activities, community initiatives, and Weimaraner rescue groups. Outside of her veterinary practice, Dr. Causey cherishes family time and enjoys outdoor adventures such as hiking and kayaking. She finds fulfillment in connecting with people from diverse backgrounds, sharing stories, and experiencing new cultures, cuisines, and wines. At home, Dr. Causey is the proud mother of Finn and Max, two playful and loving rescue Blue Weimaraners, whose lively presence brings joy and excitement to her household. With her unwavering dedication to providing care, comfort, and compassion, Dr. Suzanne Causey is honored to support you and your furry family members during life's most challenging moments.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in East Raleigh, 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.

Dr. Anna Peterson preformed an in home euthanasia for our dog, Copper on January 6th 2025 at our home in Ashland, WI. Copper has always been an anxious pup when going to the vet. I feared that we would have to go to the vet for his euthanasia and his last feeling would be anxiety and fear. We were fortunate to find Dr. Peterson. She was patience and kind. We never felt rushed and she took such good care of our little man. I feel confident that he had a peaceful passing and a lot of it was thanks to Dr. Peterson. Our family is forever grateful.

Dr Crawford was so kind and compassionate in our time of need. He gave us time to say goodbye to our beloved Bella and held space for us to grieve. I am so glad we go to say goodbye to her in the peace of our home. Thank you for doing this very hard job.

Dr. Mumm was compassionate, caring, and kind throughout our difficult time of saying goodbye to our elderly Bella. We could not have asked for a more peaceful experience both for Bella and for us.

Dr. Mitchell came to our home and provided us all the time we needed to say goodbye. We had to change our appt and she was able to accommodate us. Our dogs passing was in our bed where she had spent so much time. We are grateful we could do this at home.

Dr. Erin couldn’t have been more kind, compassionate, caring and gentle with us and our pup. This has undoubtedly been one of the biggest losses and most traumatic choices I have ever had to make, however, Dr. Erin’s professionalism and grace made our experience one where we felt safe in our grief and knowing our boy wasn’t in pain as he passed. Eternally grateful. Thank you.

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.
