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.

They were very compassionate. Just sitting on the floor guiding us during the process. They helped us deal with the fact that we did make the right decision. So warm and comforting. They were able to make time to come to our home when we needed them. They took care of all of the details for us. I would highly recommend Dr. Ayala.

Thank you to Dr Keri and all of CodaPet. Our sweet boy gets car sick and I didn't want him to feel anxious or rushed in his last moments. It was a very calm and peaceful experience. Dr Keri listened to us and to Miko throughout the whole process. I would recommend this route for anyone who has to say goodbye to their fur baby. Thank you again, it meant the world to us.

Our girl had liver cancer and after a long fight it was time to help her cross the rainbow bridge. We’re so very grateful that we went with CodaPet for our in home pet euthanasia. Though we’re very sad to see her go, we were thankful that she got to be home with us in her comfort and had a peaceful crossover. Dr.Nicole Michelli’s professionalism, empathy, and kindness in these difficult times will forever be remembered. Can’t recommend them enough if this is the unfortunate journey you find yourself in. 🫶 RIP My Pretty Kitty girl. 💕

It so hard to make that decision to do what’s best when we just want keep her. Dr. Riano was amazing. So skilled at comforting Roxy and letting me know step by step what was happening because I asked. So peaceful and patient- Dr. Riano was a blessing to us both.

Dr. Elizabeth was incredible. She calmly walked us through the process and allowed questions to be asked. She gracefully stepped into the space, connected with our dear dog and assessed the different personalities in the room. This was the best way in which we could honor this difficult time and we are grateful to Dr. Elizabeth.
