Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Fresno, 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. Schmillen was phenomenal during the whole process with my dog. She treated her like she was her own and was patient with me while I needed a few extra minutes with her. She walked me through the whole process and answered my questions. I also appreciated the listening ear throughout the process. Dr. Schmillen was very kind, caring, and compassionate.
Dr. Tovar was amazing. She was so caring and kind to us, our boy that she was dealing with, and our other dog. She treated us like family and made a difficult process more manageable. It is the only way to say goodbye to your pets. Would highly recommend Dr. Tovar and CodaPet.
Dr. Laura helped us through a very difficult time. She was compassionate and especially helped my wife through this with her gentle approach and kindness.
This is a necessary part of being a loving pet owner. Our sweet Bucky, a yellow lab, was a gentle soul with a huge heart and had eyes that gave away everything he was thinking. He got sick and within three weeks had lost most of his muscle mass and his appetite. We knew it was time after one long walk around the yard once more. We did not want to lose him somewhere else than home, where we could say goodbye to each other in a safe place where Bucky and was relaxed and comfortable. Dr Murray was very kind. He explained with compassion what this would look like and followed our lead with timing and letting the whole family say goodbye for as long as we needed to. I think he would have stayed all day if we needed it. This took me a bit to write because we miss Buckwheat terribly. But being responsible pet owners means making very tough decisions but Dr Murray really made a difference in such a sad day. I would absolutely recommend Dr Murray to anyone facing this tough time. Thank you
We’ve had two beloved long time dog companions put to rest in the last eight months, both procedures through in-home pet euthanasia administered by Dr. Ramos. Grief for our loss leading up to, during, and after the procedures was indescribable. The first time we opted to postpone for several days until such time when our pet can no longer get out of bed to eat and go potty; and Dr. Ramos worked with us through it all. Her compassion shows through her silence, her consoling words are sincere. She’s knowledgeable and worked at our pace, giving us time to say proper goodbyes. We still shed tears as she took our pets away, but had no anxiety whatsoever that we sent them away humanely. I think it helped that it was our pets leaving us from their earthly home rather than us leaving them after they were euthanized at a site that’s strange to them.
Dr. Tovar was incredibly empathetic, kind and patient with us during this hard time. We did not feel rushed by any means and she clearly explained each step of the process that helped make it easier for us to understand. We’re so glad we chose this option and that Dr. Tovar provided us with a comfortable and kind environment for us.
