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.

Dr Juber was absolutely incredible. This was an extremely tough time for my family is she was just wonderful . She had sheets for the kids to fill out asking their favorite memories and even little paw prints to put some hair in. This was the best decision having her come to the house .
This is one of the saddest experiences a pet parent can experience. The time leading up to the decision and the days that follow are also extremely difficult. I reached out to Codapet, not having any experience with them and I immediately received a personal text from Dr. Dennis. She was so supportive and kind, and helped reassure me to take my time and make my decision based on my heart and my dogs quality of life. I actually delayed the appointment for several weeks, while getting additional treatment for my ailing pet. It gave us 2 weeks of a healthier and happier girl and her mom. But unfortunately, her condition worsened again and I knew this time I did not want to delay. Dr. Dennis offered me an appointment that was not on her schedule because she knew it was making it harder to delay even by one day. When she arrived at my home, she gave me a big, tight, warm hug and I felt like I made a new friend that was going to help me and my girl. Dr. Dennis spent a great deal of time with my dog prior to the actual procedure, petting her, kissing her and looking at pics and hearing stories about my girl when she was healthy and happy. The process was explained to me with every step and I felt reassured that I was doing the right thing. After my girl was gone, I sat for a long time with her head on my lap, petting and kissing that sweet face until I was ready to physically let go. She treated me and my girl with great respect, dignity and love. I will never forget her for helping me feel safe and supported on such a difficult day.
Dr. Lauren Silvesti is an angel. It's never easy saying goodbye to a dear companion. With calm compassion, Dr Lauren was the much-needed balm during a very distressing time. My heartfelt thanks.
Dr. Silberman was exactly what we needed at a very emotional time. I reached out to him at 8 am and he was at our home by 11 am. He couldn’t have been more professional or sincere in our time of need. He showed our dog love and patience during a difficult time. Hopefully you never need him, but if you do, I highly recommend him.
If you can give this final gift to your pet, absolutely use this service. Dr. Michelli services our area and I cannot say enough positive things about her. She has a gift for providing a service for us on some of our absolute worst days, and she did an amazing job.
Dr. Dannelle Jackson made this very difficult decision and time a little easier. She was kind and compassionate and as if Peyton my sweet boy knew she was here to make his pain go away. It was so nice to have her come to our home instead of taking him away. Thank you for your kindness.
