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. Evymarie Prado Sanchez helped my husband and me put our beautiful solid-white Isabella husky to rest. I could not ask for a more compassionate, thoughtful, and informative veterinarian to be with us during one of the hardest moments of our lives. She answered every question we had with gentleness. She made sure Ash (our pup) was comfortable and completely at ease as she took her last breath. My husband and I cannot express our gratefulness for the kindness we were met with. Thank you Dr. Evymarie Prado Sanchez - Tiffany and Steven Sinakhot

The experience was like having a friend come over. She was friendly but professional. I don't think my dog experienced any pain or discomfort. For us it was perfect. I recommend Codapet for everyone.

Dr Sarah Clem was just awesome. Best decision to use this service at a very emotional and dreaded time. She helped make a final moment memorable and serene.

The cancer taking our beloved Otis showed just how evil it is by timing its final act for Christmas Eve. By Christmas morning we knew it was time to let him go. Dr. Parks responded immediately to our calls for help and under her guidance we were able to get his bleeding under control and set up a time for in-home euthanasia on the morning of Dec. 26th. Otis, the true inspiration that he was, rallied on Christmas Day opening all his gifts with gusto and devouring his treats. Seeing him happy, wagging, snacking, and the family laughing at his antics may just make this the most memorable and meaningful Christmas that this Christmas skeptic has ever had. The celebrating took a lot out of him and we spent the rest of the day and the entire night by his side under the Christmas Tree. The next morning Dr. Parks arrived to take us through the finsl step - surrounded by family in front of the tree. We are, of course, devastated, but Dr. Parks calm and reassuring manner made this sad day as peaceful and reflective as possible. I highly recommend in-home euthanasia under the care of Dr. Parks. Without her assistance I don’t think we could have given our Otis the loving goodbye that he deserved. Thank you!

Dr. Jill was amazing. She helped our beautiful Cali cross the Rainbow Bridge. We will miss her more than words can ever be expressed, but Dr. Jill made the process as smooth as possible. Highly recommend

A few days ago our special boy JJ who was part of our family for over 16 years crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. The love he gave to us unconditionally for all those years deserved to be returned by keeping him comfortable in his final hours. Dr. Pugh came to our home at this difficult time and helped us through so we could love him until his final moments and even beyond. She was kind and compassionate not only to JJ but the entire family, as well. Thank you Dr Pugh for your love and kindness.
