Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Costa Mesa, CA
Your credit card is required to reserve your appointment. However, no payment is required until the appointment and nothing is due until the appointment is completed
We charge cancellation fee of $100 if an appointment is cancelled less than 4 hours before the start time. If your pet passes away before your appointment you would not be charged a cancellation fee. If the vet you scheduled is able, and you would like their assistance with cremation, then pickup fee would apply instead of euthanasia fee
Other Consideration
If you have a larger pet, your vet may need the help of one friend or family member. Talk to your vet about options and limitations when they reach out to you prior to your appointment, and they will inform you of any extra cost for your situation.
Options for your pets return home and memorabilia depend on your local provider. Your vet coordinate the return of your pet’s ashes and let you know if there are additional fees for urn delivery.
Extra time or medications needed can affect the total price. Other factors can be if it is decided that it’s not time to euthanize your pet after the vet has arrive. In that case, only the travel fee, platform fee, and a quality of life consult would apply.
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.

Dr. Courtney treated our fur baby like her own. She was loving compassionate, patient and so gentle with Zoey. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. She explained the process and what to expect. She gave us as much time and privacy as we needed. I am so very grateful that Zoey could be in her own home with us for this transition. Losing our girl is hard enough. We're just so Thankful and Grateful for Dr. Courtney. Thank you, Patti & Karen
I am so grateful for Dr. Lori and CodaPet. Nugget was my first pet, and I was really struggling. She was compassionate and patient, and made sure I fully understood the process and what to expect. Her calm presence helped Nugget stay calm. Although it was (of course) incredibly sad, it was also incredibly peaceful, and I am eternally grateful.
When we had to make arrangements for our fur baby/good boy, we sought a kind and compassionate home provider to help with this transition. We settled on Dr LeBlanc at CodaPet because she was able to come on a Sunday and that was what worked for us. Dr. Le Blanc was gentle and kind, she was slow and patient- allowing us to move at our pace. Our little buddy was comfortable and happy. It was a sad day, but she made it a beautiful experience. I hope I don’t have to call her again for many years, but she will be my choice when the next time comes.
Dr. Kellie had a lovely, calming presence and explained patiently and in detail the process. We were not rushed in the least and said goodbye to our beloved kitty in our own time. We are so relieved to have found Dr. Kellie.
Dr. Stern provided the utmost compassion in our home. She was able to provide us all the time needed and prepare us for the euthanasia process. Our 16 year old girl, passed quietly with no pain or fear. It was our last gift to our girl for all the dedication and joy she brought us.
Having an in-hom service ito send yourfurry family member over the rainbow bridge was much less stressful for us and for Dax. He passed in surrounded by familiar sights, smells and family and in comfort. Dr. Bailey was great and kept us informed every step of the way and was very considerate and kind with Dax.
