At-Home Pet Euthanasia

Schedule a licensed veterinarian to provide a peaceful passing for your beloved pet in the comfort of your home, surrounded by loved ones.

Est. Cost$250

Initial Contact

Your vet will reach out to you prior to your appointment to answer any questions you may have and address any special circumstances or concerns.

At-Home Assessment

Your vet will make an assessment of your pet’s health and quality of life to provide guidance to ensure your decision is informed.

Pre-Medication

The veterinarian will administer an initial sedative or anesthetic to help your pet relax and become pain-free, ensuring they are comfortable and at ease.

Euthanasia

The veterinarian will first ensure your pet is fully sedated before gently administering anesthesia which will quickly slow down your pet’s respiratory system until the heart finally stops beating. In most cases, this process takes less than a minute.

Special circumstances

Special circumstances

We understand end-of-life care for your beloved pet can be unpredictable. We provide support and flexibility during this sensitive time.

Questions you may have

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.

You have the option of choosing to have your vet respectfully transport your pet to the crematorium and either have their ashes returned to you or have them respectfully spread amongst other pets.

Note: If you choose to have your pet’s ashes returned to you, your vet will coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes at the time of your appointment.

We allow cancellations at no fee to you for appointments canceled more than 4 hours before your start time. If you cancel your appointment less than 4 hours before your appointment time you will be subject to a cancellation fee of $100.

Your vet reserves time in their schedule exclusively for you, so we ask you to cancel as soon as you are able so that your vet may help another family in need.

Note: You can cancel or reschedule your appointment on your booking confirmation page or find a link to it in your booking confirmation email.

If your pet passes before the euthanasia appointment, you may cancel your appointment at any time before the appointment at no fee to you. If you would like to still request transportation of your pet to a crematorium, you may request your vet for a deceased pet pick-up and cremation services.

Note: You can cancel or reschedule your appointment on your booking confirmation page or find a link to it in your booking confirmation email.

Yes, your vet will offer a variety of memorabilia you can purchase if you choose to request the return of your pet's ashes. Once you select your vet and cremation choice on the next page, you can view your options.

Note: You may also choose to add the memorabilia or change your mind about your choice at the time of your appointment.

In the case of wanting a private burial, if your city/county regulations allow, you can choose to bury your pet. Please check local regulations to see if this is legal in your area.

If you want to bury your pet in a cemetery, you will need to choose and make arrangements with a local pet cemetery before the euthanasia appointment. Please be sure to let your CodaPet vet know if you have planned for such a burial.

Note: Your vet can only assist with cremation options, and does not handle burials of any type.

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 pet's return home and memorabilia depend on your local provider. Your vet will coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes and let you know if there are additional fees for urn delivery.

Dr. Jennifer Holman was excellent with our sweet baby Seiko. It is heartbreaking that we had to say goodbye to our girl but Dr. Holman made the experience easier on us. She was so gentle with Seiko and explained everything she was going to do.

I cannot express how grateful we are for the compassionate care provided by Dr. Amber Williams during a profoundly difficult time for our family. Her calm demeanor and reassuring presence made us feel supported as we navigated the heartbreaking process of saying goodbye to our beloved fur baby, Skuld. Dr. Williams took the time to engage with both our baby and us, ensuring that we felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. She guided us through the entire process with genuine compassion and understanding, acknowledging the grief we were experiencing. Her professionalism, combined with her heartfelt approach, made a challenging situation a little easier to bear. We are truly thankful to have had Dr. Williams by our side during this poignant moment, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of compassionate end-of-life care for their pets.

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.

When we knew it was time for our dear furbaby, Belle, to be out of her suffering, we knew we didn’t want the experience to be at our vet’s office. We chose in-home pet euthanasia with CodaPet so Belle could be comfortable in her final moments and we could have a little more time with her. Dr.Kellie was kind, responsive, and walked us through the entire process without rush. Losing Belle was not easy but it was certainly easier with the aid of CodaPet. If you are having to make the same tough decision we had to, we highly recommend CodaPet to assist your family.

The decision is never easy and all we wanted was our Calypso to pass peacefully and as stress free as possible. That is exactly what we got with Dr. Ann. 10/10 for her services. It was my husband's first time and I was so glad he didn't have to experience Calypso being so nervous as she would be anywhere other than home.
