Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Ocala, FL
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

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. Gary was recommended by a friend, and I’m so glad they did. It was extremely easy to book an appointment, and he made an incredibly difficult moment as painless for me and my husky as possible. He’s very professional, and made it so that I didn’t have to worry about any of the little details and could just focus on my last moments with my fur baby. So grateful he was able to help.
A few days ago our special boy JJ who was part of our family for over 16 years crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. The love he gave to us unconditionally for all those years deserved to be returned by keeping him comfortable in his final hours. Dr. Pugh came to our home at this difficult time and helped us through so we could love him until his final moments and even beyond. She was kind and compassionate not only to JJ but the entire family, as well. Thank you Dr Pugh for your love and kindness.
So, it has taken me some time to get around to this, but I think Brandon deserves it. This was the absolute worst experience of my life, saying goodbye to my best friend. But throughout the entirety of it Brandon was courteous, concerned, and overall caring. He made it somewhat tolerable for me, which says a lot. He gave me every minute I needed, and came at a time later than usual at my request. I know it's hard for anyone going through it, but I hope they can have someone like Brandon available to provide it. I am grateful for his service, and have absolutely no complaints. Just know that the passing of your pet can be handled with respect and grace if Brandon has anything to do with it.
Our cat George made it clear that it was time to exit this world. He was 21, and had graced us with his presence for 19 years. We didn’t want his last moments to involve a scary car ride, & the sounds and smells of a veterinary clinic, however wonderful our vet staff is. We decided to have an in home end of life. We were referred to Codapet by a vet that was unable to help same day. The vet we ultimately chose was Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald. She was in contact with us, letting us know when she would arrive. She greeted us by saying she was honored that she was chosen to help us through this difficult decision. She took great care in explaining everything we might expect or experience and was so respectful and compassionate throughout the whole experience. Our boy left this world in a gentle, loving way, leaving us with the knowledge that we did the right thing. On the money side of things, (which wasn’t really an issue with us) the cost was no greater than if we had taken our boy to the vet. I have experienced numerous end of life experiences with our fur babies, and this is clearly the best way to go when faced with a terminally ill pet.
Dr Cassandra responded quickly on a Saturday evening, and was very sympathetic. She talked to the children and cares about the feelings of those she are helping.
We said goodbye to our dear Mr. Griffin in the comfort of our home while he laid on his favorite cushion. So peaceful. It allowed us to grieve openly and share the process together. Dr. Wolfingbarger was wonderful and her compassion was so comforting.Thank you for allowing us to say goodbye to our boy in such a peaceful manner.
