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 am so glad I chose CodaPet and the in-home euthanasia for my dog, Sophie. Dr. Diana Phillips was so kind and caring and explained all steps of the procedure. We felt much more comfortable being at home rather than at a clinic. At a difficult time like this anything that can reduce the stress is important.
If you are looking for kind, compassion in home pet euthanasia, I would definitely recommend this company. Dr. Angela Schwimmer came out last weekend and was amazing with our Lhasa apso Sampson. She was gentle, loving and really gave us the peace of mind that we were doing the right thing. It was so comfortable for him to pass at home instead of a sterile office. The whole process was seamless and the respect she showed him and us was so appreciated during such a hard time.
After 18 wonderful years with my sweet Tinker, it was finally time to say goodbye. A year earlier, I had spoken with my vet about when and how to make this decision, knowing the day would eventually come. After managing kidney failure, hyperthyroidism, and other health issues for as long as we could, her body began to give out. We called CodaPet at 5 p.m. on a Tuesday for an emergency in-home euthanasia appointment, knowing in our hearts that Tinker wouldn’t make it through the night. The receptionist was compassionate and professional—she helped finalize the payment and offered keepsake options. Dr. Kristen Stukey stayed in touch with us about her arrival time and arrived just three hours after our call. Dr. Kristen Stukey and the CodaPet team made an incredibly difficult experience as peaceful and gentle as it could possibly be. For such a heartbreaking day, I have no regrets about making that call. This is such a challenging field—one that demands deep empathy and strength—and I’m incredibly grateful for the love and care they showed. With so much love, thank you.
We are so incredibly grateful for Dr. Chapman. She brought such a gentle, compassionate presence during one of the most heartbreaking moments of our lives. We chose in home euthanasia so our sweet Dakota could be in the comfort of his home, surrounded by his family and furry siblings and we have absolutely no regrets. Dr. Chapman made a painful goodbye feel peaceful and full of love. We’ll forever be thankful for her kindness.
Annie was so special to me, like a child. She was with me over 14 years. There was no way I could have taken her into a vet's office and had her 'put down'. Annie deserved so much more. We chose in-home pet euthanasia and would never do it any other way. Annie was eating treats out of my hand and didn't notice the sedation she was given. She became groggy and we helped her lay into her bed. Dr. Roberts asked us when we were ready, and sat in her car after, giving us time with Annie. Dr. Roberts text as soon as I made the appointment and followed up after. This was one of the most difficult decisions I've ever had to make, and I felt validated, reassured, and most importantly Annie was in her own home. She wasn't afraid in an office. She was surrounded by love and in her comfort zone. She had dignity and grace.
With tremendous heartache and anguish, on Thursday, June 26th, I had to say goodbye to my best friend and soul mate Kaya Sletzinger. She was a 10 year 3 month old Leonberger, who had been struggling with some health issues, most notably arthritis. If you have been through this before as a dog owner, then you know how burdensome it is. If you are a more recent dog owner, and haven’t been through this experience, it may seem unfathomable. I have been around dogs for all of my life, and I know that they’re absolutely the best things in this world. The only downside is that they don’t live long enough. Unfortunately I have experienced having to go to the veterinary hospital to put my best friend to sleep, but the much better option, is having a doctor come to your house, and doing this procedure at home. This method is called in-home pet euthanasia. I have chosen this recourse when I put my awesome Leonberger Nadja to sleep in 2013, I Love You Nadja! And just a little over a week ago, when I truly believe that The Kaya Baby and myself came to an understanding, and knew what had to be done, I called CodaPet, who put me in touch with Dr. Lauren Silvesti. Everyone who I talked with at CodaPet were so kind, respectful, and professional and my words cannot express how highly I exalt Dr. Lauren Silvesti. From our very first interaction on Wednesday morning, she was compassionate, kind, and accessible. Dr. Lauren Silvesti was willing to answer any questions that I had throughout the day, and whenever I tried to get in touch with her, she was available. Kaya was such an amazing girl who had vastly intense energy. She could be stubborn and mischievous and I loved her for it. Principally though, Kaya was loving and sensitive. She could not tolerate any tension or drama, so I did my best to make sure that she wouldn’t have to. If I had decided to take Kaya to a veterinary hospital to allow her to pass on, then there would have been a lot of added stress for her. I would never allow that to happen. Kaya was a very family oriented girl, so the only option for both of us, was to do this procedure at home. Kaya passed away in my arms while I was hugging her and talking to her. My mom and dad were also there, as well as my sister and brother in-law, along with their two dogs Luney and Ruby. They are both Kaya’s sisters, and everyone who was there loved Kaya so much. I was with my Kaya girl for the whole time, and I sincerely believe that she was at peace. Having to make the decision “when is the right time?” And having to say goodbye to all of my dogs, is by far one of the hardest things that I will have to go through in my life. Dr. Lauren Silvesti made this experience as manageable as possible for all of us. She was so professional, and from beginning to end, the procedure was conducted smoothly, effectively, and tenderly. Thank You Dr. Silvesti! I believe it meant the world to Kaya to have so many people who loved her, there with her, when she needed it most. The Kaya Baby was so full of love, and she loved everybody who was there with her also. RIP Baby Girl and Best Wishes on your next adventure! Also to Baxter, Ruffo, Mila, Dreyfus, and Nadja, I miss you guys and I love you! If you happen to be reading this review and you are going through this agonizing time of saying goodbye to your dog. I wanted to say I’m sorry and I’m sending my heartfelt condolences. I genuinely recommend CodaPet out of Ashburn, Virginia, and Dr. Lauren Silvesti, who I will forever consider a dear friend. They specialize at in-home pet euthanasia, which is a truly valuable service. If there is an option to take this course of action when the time is right, in my opinion it is the best way to go, for the wellbeing of your pet. I’m sending everyone my love and please cherish your time with your pets. Time flies by so fast and life is too short. Sincerely and Respectfully, Jussi Sletzinger
