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.

Dr. Kristin was such a caring and supportive presence as we said goodbye to our sweet Kody. She was so compassionate and made the entire process so much more bearable for our broken hearts. We are so thankful and appreciative to Dr. Kristin for helping our cherished boy pass on calmly and peacefully.

Our experience with Dr. Gordon was exactly what we hoped it would be. We felt so lucky to have her calm, kind, caring bedside demeanor as part of this otherwise difficult experience. Dr. Gordon let our pet take things as his own pace, never rushed the appointment, and was very loving in our pet’s final moments. I would choose this service and this provider again.

I am a retired Hospice nurse. It was most important to me that my loving companion Daisey have a peaceful passing at home with me by her side. Dr. Diana Phillips was so supportive and an absolute blessing at such a difficult time. She compassionately walked me through the process each step of the way. Daisey indeed passed without discomfort or fear. I am forever grateful for this program. I very much appreciated the time she took and obtained a beauty keepsake of Daisey’s paw print. 🌈❤️

The person I spoke to when looking for a vet to come out for same day euthanasia was extremely insensitive. No compassion, just fill in the form questions being asked. She even argued with me about the town I live in! It was obviously just a call service and her smoke alarm battery was beeping!!! Horrible horrible horrible.

Dr. Johnson came to my home to put my cat down. Even though the occasion was sad, he treated her with respect and gave her a dignified death. I'll always be grateful for that.

It is such an emotional time when you have to put your beloved pet down. I thought and prayed hard when my little pup Rocky wasn't getting well; he was only getting worse. After signing up online, I was contacted right away, by Dr Andrea Dover. She was able to come when I chose, only a day or two later. She was so good with Rocky. He was totally comfortable with her. After initial consultation, I carried Rocky to my bed, which I thought would provide maximum comfort and relaxation. I held him as he lay there, staring close into his sweet face. I talked to him the whole time, as Dr Dover administered the injections. Rocky didn't seem to notice Dr Dover was there or doing anything. I was free to coddle him and talk to him, and he was listening. We were truly at one during this process. I didn't want to get overly upset, and just let the tears flow as I gave him love, smiles of reassurance and promises to see him again in heaven. Afterward, Dr Dover gently gathered him in a soft blanket and placed him in a perfect-sized basket. Rocky was at peace, his sweet little face looked like he was sleeping, all warm and cozy in the blanket imprinted with hearts. It was so hard to let him go, but there couldn't have been a better way. Dr Andrea is very intuitive, gentle, and kind. She appeared to me very God-centered in her work. I was so grateful that it was her there with me. It's been tough, but lately I have been having exquisite dreams of Rocky running to me, just like he used to do when he was well. He's all excited to see me, full of energy, having fun and feeling so happy. I think that's a good sign. I believe my little Pumpkin (which I often called him), is at peace now and one day we will be together again. Last night, I dreamt I was offering him a bowl of pumpkin!
