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 seldom leave reviews but my experience with Dr. Dixon deserves recognition. Her care, compassion and communication was as good as I could ever hope for in that painful time of losing a beloved. Missy is the 4th Dog I have had to make that painful decision with and the transition was made easier with Dr. Dixon's Love and Care. thank you Tim

Keri was a very calm and compassionate person helping us through the process during a very difficult time for us. Although it is so hard to say goodbye, we're glad that we were able to do it at home since Harley was family.

Dr. Karen Whala was such a blessing! We are so thankful she came to our home and made us feel at ease with our little Jordan. Thank you for letting me hold her during the entire time. Your kind heart and soft nature made this difficult time more peaceful. Thank you!

Having to let go of our beautiful 15 year old Scout, threw both my husband and I into a pit of despair. But, Doctor Amy made this very challenging situation a very beautiful experience for us. She was very gentle with us and made us feel comfortable and safe. She took her time, and gave us options. She was conversational, and even shared little tidbit about herself. She guided us through every step of the process, and even gave us a very thoughtful keepsake of our Scout's paw print. We were a mess of tears and sobs, but she did not even bat an eye and encouraged us to fully express ourselves as we said goodbye to our girl. Scout passed away peacefully, and quietly as we held her laying on a soft blanket that we placed beneath a flowering Poplar tree, right here in our home, Rosemary Lane. I 1000 percent recommend this service. It is worth every single penny..

We’ve experienced in-home pet euthanasia several times and the opportunity to let Munchkin leave us while resting in front of her fireplace rather than being crated for a drive to town was very valuable to all of us. Dr. Katie was very calm, comforting and compassionate and she made the process of letting Munchkin go one of love and respect. She was very attuned to Munchkin’s comfort and emotional needs, but also made sure that we thought about and understood how the other pets in the house might react to Munchkin’s passing.

Saying goodbye to my beloved cat was one of the most painful experiences of my life, but I couldn’t have asked for a more compassionate and supportive guide than Dr. Megan Lowman. She was incredibly gentle, calming, and kind—truly the most comforting veterinarian I’ve ever encountered. I’m so, so grateful she was with us during this difficult time. During the visit, Dr. Lowman took the time to explain every step, both in advance and as we went, making sure we were prepared and comfortable throughout. We never felt rushed; she gave us all the time we needed and only proceeded when we felt ready. Her presence brought me so much peace in one of my hardest moments. The CodaPet platform made a heartbreaking situation just a little easier, the appointment was quick and simple to book online, and I appreciated not having to make any phone calls. Dr. Lowman checked in with me via text a few days beforehand to answer any questions I had, which brought additional peace of mind. I can’t recommend Dr. Lowman and CodaPet highly enough. Thank you, Dr. Lowman, for your compassion and kindness during such a difficult and sensitive time.
