Dr Valentino came into our lives on a very difficult day. She was kind and compassionate, she reinforced that what we were doing was the right thing for our pet, which we really needed to hear. She gave us the time we needed. I felt she would look after our pet with dignity and kindness when she took her away. The whole process was calm and comforting. I am very grateful.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in New Haven, CT

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.

I didn't know that in-home pet euthanasia existed until my son had to say goodbye to his pet last summer. He shared with me what a blessing it was to be able to say goodbye at home, so I googled for options when it came time for our sweet Allie cat. Dr. Hundley was amazing, first walking me through the process over the phone and her kindness and respectfulness for our girl as she left this world. To be able to have a calm, quiet, familiar atmosphere was a true gift to both my husband and I and Allie.

Dr. Cassandra came to our home and helped our beloved dog pass peacefully. She was kind, compassionate, and clearly understood our grief in the moment. She knows how to help people and pets during this most difficult experience. We'd recommend her to any family with a pet that is suffering toward the end of life.

Our little guy Tucker, was almost 18 years old when we knew after several seizures, it was time for us to call Codapet. We had used Codapet 3 years prior for our other dog, Kolby. Dr. Sarah Clem came out and she so very nice, compassionate and even listened to our stories about Tucker and his long life we had with him. Tucker went very peacefully. Thank you Dr. Sarah.

Dr. Renee Scott was amazing. My dog had a stroke and I needed someone to come out ASAP. I didn’t want my dog to suffer. I also didn’t want the stress of getting her into my vehicle, driving her to an emergency vet and not be able to comfort her on the way. Dr Renee was able to arrive pretty quickly and was so kind and compassionate. And I had the time to comfort my beloved dog and say goodbye privately.

Coda Pet was such a blessing for us this past month. We had our beautiful Leyla girl for 14 years and our 3 daughters didn’t know life without her. When we found out it was time we just couldn’t bring ourselves to do it at the vet, we decided she deserved more, she deserved to be at home where she’s comfortable and is happy. I immediately fell upon this website while sitting at the vet crying and it was so easy and seamless to book an appointment quickly and set it all up for 4 hours later. Dr. Daniela was absolutely amazing. She was so professional, compassionate and loving with our baby and with us as well. She talked my kids through it and made us all feel at ease and comfortable with what was going to happen. She allowed my girls to lay with her and hug her through out the entire process. She didn’t rush us and allowed us to take our time. I have never had an experience like that, although it was painfully sad to say goodbye to her, it was very peaceful to see her cross the rainbow bridge in peace and with her babies loving on her. I highly recommend this service to everyone. Price wise, it actually was cheaper for us than the vet by a few hundred dollars. However, the experience and care were priceless. I can’t thank Dr. Daniela enough, she was truly so caring and thoughtful. She hand delivered her ashes to us and checked on us to see how we were doing. Thank you Coda Pet and Dr. Daniela for all that you did and do for our beloved pets.
