Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Santa Clarita, 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.

Dr. Dixon provided such empathetic and knowledgeable care on a very difficult day. She took care of everything and we never doubted Frankie was loved and cared for by her from the moment she entered our home to the moment she returned his ashes. Could not more highly recommend Dr. Dixon! We will utilize her services as long as we live in Central Oregon.
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.
She was amazing and made the moment a softer blow to our hearts. We will never forget Marlene she has amazing energy puts your heart at ease and you just feel a calm come over you. Thank you I’ll never forget y'all. Namaste Tangos Family
Dr. Marlene Anschultz was so helpful trough the whole process, she really eased our pain with her calm and empathy, she has a very kind heart and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye while reassuring us that we were making the right decision for Remus. She made this first time at home experience a much less painful event even though it never gets easier ❤️🩹 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Marlene. Stephan and Ginny P.
Dr. Anschultz was sent to us from an angel. Our dogs diagnosis was so sudden and we were shocked to have to even make this decision so quickly, but she shared a very similar personal story and assured us that we were doing the very best thing for our dog. She is kind, compassionate, and one of a kind.
Dr. Christy was an angel. She handled my baby boy Ash so well and while it was difficult to let him go she made the event very personal and beautiful. I’m sure he appreciated her kindness and my family appreciated her as well. More people should look into this as a peaceful and personal tribute to the end of life experience. Thank you so very much.
