Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Irvine, CA
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 recently had the privilege of booking Dr. Heather White through CodaPet for in-home euthanasia services, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the experience. From the very beginning, Dr. White demonstrated extraordinary compassion and understanding during what was an incredibly difficult time for me. She approached the process with patience and sensitivity, ensuring my dog was never placed in an uncomfortable position or situation. Dr. White administered a "happy" medication that allowed my dog to relax and become comfortably sleepy. This gave him the chance to rest in my lap as I gently stroked his head and body, telling him how much he meant to me and what a wonderful companion he had been. Throughout the entire process, I never felt rushed or pressured. Instead, Dr. White created a calm and peaceful environment, which brought a sense of comfort despite the gravity of the moment. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. White to anyone facing a similar situation. Her professionalism, kindness, and care make an otherwise heart-wrenching experience as gentle and comforting as possible. I wish you and your beloved pet the same level of compassion and support that I experienced.
Dr Daniela was awesome she took her time and explained everything every step of the way. She is so compassionate we didn’t know what to expect. We weren’t rushed. As much as it hurt me, the experience was peaceful and loving and she was so gentle with my girl.
It was a very difficult time for my family and myself. We had never experienced it before. And one of the hardest decision I have ever made. I am so great full for the way Dr. Lutri's demeanor was. She was very compassionate, patient and her energy was very much appreciated
Dr Cara Mitchell was so compassionate and very helpful through out the process she arrived in a very timely manner she even stayed for the burial i highly recommend her services
Truly an incredibly kind, loving skilled and talented Vet. She was able to transform a heartbreaking experience into a meaningful and beautiful transition. We will be forever grateful.
At home Euthanasia is a god send, my dog was comfortable in a place he felt safe. There was no stress, it was very peaceful. Dr. Karen was very respectful of our situation and our dog.
