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 wasn’t sure what to expect from CodaPet and all I knew was that I didn’t want to go to a vets office to have this done. Dr Lisa Littejohn was so compassionate. I didn’t feel rushed and I truly felt like she cared for me and my sweet Maltese. Thank you for making a really hard time into something that was manageable to get through.

Dr. Katie was very kind, gentle, informative and completely respectful and sympathetic during this very difficult time for us. She explained the process thoroughly, took her time with us, let us have as much time as we needed before and after to grieve. She made this horrible process as easy as it could possibly be, considering the circumstances. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Dr. Katie!

Great customer service friendly, and very compassionate. It was a hard experience, but Dr. Dubose explained everything well and the whole process was smooth and peaceful. I would recommend her to any one who needs this kind of services for their animals.

When it became time for our 16-year-old rescue Scottie mix to cross the Rainbow Bridge, we used CodaPet, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The online scheduling was incredibly user-friendly, allowing us to coordinate a visit quickly during a high-stress time. The service was prompt, but never felt rushed. The Doctor was knowledgeable and deeply caring, providing a full explanation of every step of the process so there were no surprises. Most importantly, our dog was treated with the utmost respect. After she passed peacefully, the staff gave us the alone time we needed to say our final goodbyes. When it was time to leave, they carried her off with great dignity—wrapped in a warm blanket and placed in a woven basket. Since the visit, they have followed up via email to express their condolences and provided a helpful list of grief support groups. If you are looking for a service that balances medical expertise with genuine human compassion, I highly recommend CodaPet. They helped us ensure our girl had a peaceful trip to the other side to meet her friends, Lucy and Molly."

Dr. Kelly Stern is a compassionate veterinarian. She cares a great deal about her patients and their comfort. She is excellent at explaining medical terminology in a pet owner friendly way. I would recommend her services to anyone.
