Dr. Meadows was absolutely wonderful. He was kind, compassionate, and attentive to my kitties needs. His comfort and care made the procedure a million times more tolerable. It was quick and painless for my precious baby and I’m forever grateful Dr. Meadows was our doctor. After I scheduled, he called and offered to come right away, even in rush hour traffic. He followed up with a beautiful sympathy card which was so special to us. I highly recommend Dr. Meadows. You won’t find anyone as compassionate and kind.

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

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.

Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to my good furry friend after 13 years. I came across these services online and decided to give it a try. Dr. Lauren Silvesti arrived promptly and did more than enough to help us go through this situation. I honestly couldn't ask for more. You know, when loved ones go, nothing is of the concern, but curiosity whether you animal made it to the proper place as promised still persists since you didn't do it yourself. Dr. Lauren did everything as promised, besides going above and beyond during time when we tried to pull our minds together. Thank you Dr. Lauren and I wish you only the best in life.

We deeply appreciate the kindness, tenderness, and compassion that Dr. Halbert gave us and our elderly cat. She made a special effort to visit us in a difficult time. We're glad that our cat was in good hands with Dr. Halbert, and are comforted that at home euthanasia allowed our dear pet a dignified end, surrounded by those who loved him, in his own comfortable bed. Thank you again, Dr. Halbert.

It has taken me one month to the day to muster up the strength to compose this review of the kind, incredible, beyond-caring Dr. Lisa Fieg of CodaPet. Dr. Lisa helped me and my husband say goodbye to our beloved, cherished, adored 15 1/2 year-old Alfie. This was our first time doing this. I can say with all the certainty there is that Dr. Lisa was the most sensitive, caring, ideal type of human being to guide us through this difficult process. She came and sat with all of us, explained everything, and most importantly, Alfie was so comfortable in her company from the start. Dr. Lisa was compassionate, gentle, a very clear communicator, profound, and led this process with such care. Even afterward, which was beyond surreal, Dr. Lisa assured us that she would make sure Alfie traveled safely back with her in the car. She had a lovely basket which meant so much as we didn't know how his body would travel back for cremation. That personal, kind detail made an unbearably painful moment less agonizing. Thank you from the core of our hearts, Dr. Lisa, for proceeding with such love & gentility with our beloved Alfie. We feel like we were meant to find you to help us through Alfie's final moments. We will never forget you.

Our experience was as beautiful as it could have been. Dr. Amy Lutgen DeWitt was responsive, reassuring, kind, knowledgeable, compassionate, and gentle. She was not rushed and seemed to genuinely care about our pet and family’s wellbeing. Having this experience at home felt more comfortable for everyone. We highly recommend. 💕

Review by Alayne Vokurka

One of the hardest days we knew would be coming soon with our old man Cloud(14 yrs young) but ofc we thought we had more time. We're new to the area and had yet to establish a vet when his life quality declined over a matter of days. It's Saturday evening and Brick & Mortar vets are closed for the weekend. The emergency services have astronomical costs and an unfamiliar place/people sounds a terrible way to go. Thanks to CodaPet that wasn't necessary. I filled out the forms and requested an appt for the very next morning. The vet reached out and we spoke about expectations and questions. When the time comes and your facing the hardest decision I can't recommend them enough. Dr. Houck came to our home and patiently helped make the transition comfortable and familiar instead of a cold impersonal Dr's office. My old man laid in his favorite spot surrounded by his family as he passed. He deserved no less.
