We had Dr Lisa come to our house October 1st to help us help our sweet Beast crossover. Dr Lisa was so sweet and explained how everything was going to happen. She was so gentle with our baby,she was so gentle with us too. The entire experience was so calm and peaceful and at no point did she make us feel rushed. I'm so thankful that we decided to do the at home euthanasia. I wouldn't do this any other way. From the bottom of our hearts thank you so much Dr Lisa.

Making the call is so hard but we do it for our furry babies. I had my doubts if it was the right thing to do and I know with Dr.Daniela, she put all that at ease. I really do feel this was the best possible way to go. Dr.Daniela was so caring, kind, understanding, and informative. I knew my fur baby was in good and safe hands with her. It meant so much to me how she was so attentive to me and my baby. She made this transition a lot easier and did not rush our good byes. I would thank her everyday for making my fur baby peaceful and comfortable. She is one of a kind. Dr.Daniela is so strong for you and your fur baby.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Orange, CA

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.

The work Dr. Lisa does is so compassionate! Thank you so much for all you did for our beloved Joey and for us the people who loved him. You deal with both sides---and you do a wonderful job at both. Again, thank you for the excellent care.

It’s always a pet owners most difficult decision to have to help them cross over. We were just passing thru the area when we had to make ours. We are very thankful for Dr Jackson in helping Huckleberry be at peace and free from pain in his last moments. I’ve had a very traumatic experience in the past with taking a pet in to a vets office and him dying in the back room and the office not allowing me to be with him while he was waiting to be seen and I never wanted that to happen again. Huckleberry was able to be surrounded by family and the love he so deserved on his last day earth-side. Dr Jackson was very kind to give us a private moment with him before the final moment, and took care of the cremation and made sure his ashes was returned within a few days before we had to leave town. Thank you Dr Jackson for your help, you helped make a sad day a more meaningful one.

Dr. Lisa was fantastic! This was the first time for us to put a pet to sleep so it was difficult. Dr. Lisa explained every step and what to expect. She even gave us time after our cat passed to be quiet with her. Zoey our kitty was treated so well and we feel so blessed to be able to help release her from her pain. Thank you Coda Pet for a wonderful experience.

Dr. Briell Dzierga was wonderful. This was our first time using an in home pet euthanasia service. We never knew this was even an option until recently. We knew we wanted our furbaby, Misty Day, to pass with us at home and not in some strange place she visits once a year. Dr. Dzierga explained the process to us and got to know us. She listened as we grieved and shared stories. She didn't rush us and she helped talk to our 8 year old who wanted to be there, too, to say goodbye to her grandparents cat. She handled all the cremation and transfer details and gave us a sweet pawprint keepsake. She explained everything and all our options for arrangements. No pressure. She was so, so kind. We received a sweet condolence card where she had so much detail on all the personal stories we shared. I would highly recommend her and her services. We loved her! ❤️ Christina, Damien and Esmae Adeline

Dr. Daniela was great she explained to me and my family everything step by step. We didn't feel rushed or pressure to buy anything extra. You could tell she's a sweet person and she's real passionate about her job as she cares she is a heaven on earth angel. I'm glad I found her and the company that they work for. I miss my fur baby so much but I know he's not suffering no more. I know I'll see him again in heaven I love him with all my heart. I recommend Dr Daniela to anyone that has to deal with this with their fur baby thank you again Dr Daniela and her team.

Letting go of your family pet is never easy. Dr. Lori made this experience very peaceful. She gave us the time and space needed to say goodbye properly. Would recommend 10/10.
