Recent Pet Parent Review

It started off with bad communication. He called, I returned his calls, no answer. After many attempts and two hours later, we finally communicated. When he showed up, he was asking about my dogs history; then stated he would need to do a blood test to see what was going on. My dog was literally on her deathbed; which was more than evident. My dog had been sick for 4 years and on many medications. When he finally opened his bag, he stated he forgot the second medication that would euthanize her. He left and returned an hour later. Though he did euthanize her; his bedside manner and judgmental attitude was not good.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Pottstown, PA

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.

Our Puggle, Peanut, was 16 years old and was struggling. She appeared to be in pain and discomfort, and many of the things she once enjoyed in life she could no longer do. We knew it was time to make the difficult decision of quality over quantity. I did not want her end-of-life experience to be traumatic with a stressful vet visit in a cold, scary office on a metal table, something I still remembered from putting down my childhood dog. I began searching for in home pet euthanasia services and found Dr. Sims online. The booking process was seamless. She called to talk beforehand and sent such a graceful and comforting confirmation message the night before. The day of the appointment, she arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and immediately made us feel confident that she was there to help relieve our poor girl’s suffering. Honestly, I could not have asked for a better end-of-life experience for Peanut. Peanut was so comfortable and peaceful, lying in her own bed surrounded by love, like she was finally getting the rest she needed. She never flinched or yelped, she simply drifted peacefully to sleep in the comfort of her home. We truly could not have asked for a more dignified, compassionate, and peaceful ending for our beloved family member. I am forever grateful for the kindness and care we received during such a heartbreaking time.

Dr. Mochizuki was wonderful - compassionate and professional, and she made Yogi's passing as peaceful as possible...She ensured that Yogi had no discomfort and was comforting to us as well. I would definitely recommend her service for what is always a difficult time for pet parents.

Dr. Martin was so helpful, caring, and patient. He made what was an incredibly difficult and sad time more bearable because of his consideration and calm demeanor. He ensured my Lily was comfortable and gave me as much time as I needed with her. I deeply appreciated his in-home service, as it allowed us to avoid the added stress of an office visit. The after-care has also been great.

Dr. Williams and CodaPet provided exceptional service for the family cat a year ago and our family dog this year. The home experience was loving, peaceful, and safe. Thank you, Sue Thurston

We couldn't have been more blessed to have such a compassionate and caring person to help us through such a sad time. We've had to help a lot of pets cross the rainbow bridge over the years and Dr. Mary absolutely made this the best experience we could have hoped for. He passed in peace and comfort and it was all thanks to her, we would highly recommend.

Dr. Lauren came to our home when we sent out an urgent request when everything was booked up. This was our first at home euthanasia experience, and my husband's first true loss of a beloved pet. Lauren was calm, comforting, and kind. She explained everything clearly and gently. She was sensitive to where my husband and I each were emotionally, and most importantly, she was very gentle with our sweet boy, a 12 year old Siberian cat named Buddy, declining dramatically from kidney disease. He went quickly and peacefully. It was a huge comfort and relief. He had been suffering. Lauren made sure we were okay before she left, and even followed up later in the day, especially confirming whether or not we wanted some of his fur included with our private cremation (we had said no, but decided we did - so glad she asked again). We would recommend CodaPets, and especially Dr. Lauren, to anyone who wanted an at-home experience. I would seek her out specifically again.
