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 was so very pleased with the beautiful passage to the other side. Our Chewy boy in in the garden and we plan to plant wildflowers over him. I will forever call coda pet for my animals passage to the other side. Much rather they feel safe and at home when that time comes. Absolutely the best! So very thankful!

Thankfully, my dear neice found CodaPet-At Home Euthanasia and Dr. John Murray to help us say goodbye to my dear cat. This is such a difficult and sad time...but Dr. Murray's kind and compassionate presence made the experience of saying farewell loving and meaningful. I can't say enough about Dr. Murray's charisma. His explanations, understanding and timing was perfect. I recommend Codapet uncategorically and wany to thank him again for his warm professional and personable presence.

Coda Pet and Dr Meredith Somerset were such a blessing to us. Our precious girl Tasha was able to pass at home, surrounded by family and our other dog. It was so gentle and peaceful. We are grateful for Dr Meredith’s kindness and compassion

I had a great experience with Codapet when I had to put my dog of 15 years down with euthanasia. The Doctor gave me plenty of time with my pet before, during and after the procedure. It’s a difficult decision to make for your pet but you have to think of them and what they are going through by staying alive.

We are a family that has had 2 dogs and a cat for a decade. It was such a hard decision but the time had come for one of our dogs. Dr. Lewis was responsive, patient, genuine, and knew the love that was pouring out for our dog. She explained everything each step of the way. We needed service at the end of a holiday weekend on short notice. The option of in home pet euthanasia was the correct choice for our family. It was peaceful and gentle. We miss our best friend. Her memory lives on, but we and our dog both experienced the comfort of being in our own home when we said goodbye and privately mourned after. I highly recommend Dr. Lewis.

Dr. Doolittle was a calm and reassuring presence during a difficult time for our family. We were able to say goodbye to our sweet boy in the comfort of his home and he was well taken care of from the moment we scheduled the service to the moment he was carried away. We would absolutely use this service again
