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. Lori Thomas was a godsend. We had to make the gut-wrenching decision to say goodbye to our 15-year-old Zöegirl, and we are so grateful that Dr. Thomas was there to guide us through it. The experience was cozy, peaceful, and filled with so much empathy and love. She texted ahead of time to see if we had any questions or wanted to talk before the visit, and on the day of, she let us know when she was on her way. When she arrived, she greeted us like family. She took her time getting to know Zöe and made us feel comfortable with the hardest choice we’ve ever had to make. It was especially difficult because Zöe had sundowners, and during the day she could still seem so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. But she had walked into the pool several times, was running into walls, losing her balance, and losing her way. As hard as it was, we knew it was best not to wait for a middle-of-the-night emergency or have to say goodbye in a stressful vet room instead of in the comfort of her own home. Dr. Thomas explained every step of the process and made sure we were ready and comfortable. She handled our girl with such care and love, even driving her off as her “copilot” in a basket in the passenger seat. We truly could not have been blessed with a better end-of-life experience or a more compassionate doctor. We are forever grateful.

Dr. Bean is absolutely the most kind hearted soul. I am so grateful that was able to help King Buddy for the last time. He was King Buddy’s vet for many years and always took great care of him. To have him come to our home was a blessing. King Buddy was put to rest while laying in his favorite sunbathing spot in the driveway with his human pack surrounding him. Thank you to Codapet, Dr. Bean and Brooke. King Buddy had a great life and a beautiful ending.

After having to go through this experience twice before, we opted for in-home euthanasia. Dr. Rona was considerate, compassionate, and very professional. She showed up early, answered all our questions, and gave us plenty of time to say goodbye. She made the experience easier and left us knowing we made the right choice. Highly recommend Dr. Rona.

We recently had to say goodbye to our 17 year old very loved cat due to kidney disease. We wanted him to be able to have a peaceful departure in his comfortable, familiar home, and decided to pursue an at-home euthanasia. We set up a date and time with Dr. Lori Thomas of Coda Pet for later in the week so that we could spend some quality time and say our goodbyes. Unfortunately the disease progressed more quickly than we anticipated. When we contacted Dr. Thomas, she worked with us, and arranged to come that same day. Her calm, professional demeanor and compassionate care helped us through a very tough day., and our beloved cat was peacefully sent to sleep with the angels. I highly recommend Coda Pet's at home euthanasia program and Dr. Lori Thomas. They are both such a blessing.

Dr. Ann was amazing, caring, compassionate, allowed my family time. Never felt rushed, had been texting me all day making sure me and family were ok. My dog was a 115lb Cane Corso, who was having trouble getting around, much more on and out of the car. To have been able to let our baby stay home on her bed surrounded by everyone she loved and adored her was priceless. I am so glad I found out about these services, I had no idea existed. Thank you Dr. Ann Gonnering and Coda Pet❤️

On May 14, 2026 Dr. Dykstra arrived at our home at 9 am sharp after a hard night and decision to let our sweet and suffering Molly (13.5 yr old Cavalier) leave this life with us. Dr. Dykstra made the decision and process very comfortable and reassuring. Molly immediately took to her and accepted her love and attention. Such a gift of God to have it end this way with a loving expert! God bless you Dr. Dykstra. Eddie and Lisa Bridgers
