Dr. Magnotta was accommodating with her availability, and was even able to come help us earlier than anticipated as our cat's health exponentially deteriorated overnight. We know Dr. Magnotta helped us make our cat as comfortable as possible as we said goodbye. It was one of the hardest days of my life, but Dr. Magnotta helped give me peace of mind knowing my cat Sadie felt no pain and was cared for with kindness. Dr. Magnotta was so compassionate and caring. She made us feel cared for, and we felt reassured that we were making the right decision. I highly recommend Dr. Magnotta.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Torrington, CT

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.

In home pet euthanasia with CodaPet’s network of veterinarians provides loving, end-of-life care when you need it most. Once you schedule a visit online, you will receive a confirmation, and your vet will make sure everything is arranged with care and clarity.

When your vet arrives, they’ll begin with a gentle assessment to reassure you of your decision and answer any questions you may have. Your vet will always move at your pace, giving you the time and space you need to say goodbye in your own way.

When you are ready, your vet will gently administer a sedative so your pet can relax and drift into a deep, peaceful sleep. After the sedation has fully taken effect, a final, humane medication is given, allowing for a calm and painless passing surrounded by love.

If you choose aftercare, your vet will respectfully care for your pet and transport them for cremation, handling every step with dignity and compassion.

In home euthanasia with CodaPet’s network of veterinarians in Torrington and the surrounding areas begins at around $300. Your final cost may vary based on your pet’s size, your location, and any additional services you choose—such as private or communal cremation, ashes returned in an urn, or personalized keepsakes.

When scheduling a vet visit to your home, you’ll first receive a detailed, upfront price estimate according to your specific needs before confirming a visit. If you have questions or need support at any point, you can call (959) 202-2137.

From the moment she arrived, Dr. Stadler was kind, calm, and deeply respectful of both Pumpkin and our family. She took the time to clearly explain each step of the process, which brought a sense of peace and reassurance during an otherwise overwhelming moment. What mattered most to me was that Pumpkin never felt panicked or distressed, and Dr. Stadler ensured that happened. The entire experience was handled with such gentleness and clarity. Everything felt straightforward, unhurried, and dignified—exactly what you hope for in a situation like this. I will always be thankful for the comfort she provided, not just to Pumpkin, but to all of us.

Our baby boy deal was a story he was a veteran's service dog and the veteran was so mean to him and then the person died and they left him out there by himself for 4 months then he went to a foster home and we got him and we had him for four beautiful years and the day that we got him I told him that he would never have a day without tons of love and kindness then he developed cancer and unfortunately we had to let him go and I'm going to tell you right now Coda pet I could not have asked for any better release of that baby home Amy the vet was wonderful kind compassionate understanding patient and just made everything as easy as it could on him he died and passed away so easy and so peaceful it gave us some comfort and then adding the fact that we cremated him and his ashes are here at home where it needs to be on the shelf the whole service that they offer is beyond words again I want to thank all of them for the things that they did and they continue support they give me.

We had to say goodbye to our beloved 13.5-year-old Golden Retriever, Jess, on Easter Sunday, and Dr. Nicolette Michelli from CodaPet made one of the hardest days of our lives as bearable as possible. Jess had been battling lung cancer and declined very rapidly over the weekend. We had originally scheduled a Monday appointment, but her condition worsened so quickly that we needed to move it up to Sunday morning. Dr. Michelli immediately accommodated us and came to our home with such compassion and professionalism. From the moment she arrived, she was calm, gentle, and incredibly supportive. She walked us through the entire procedure step by step, answered all of our questions, and gave us the time and space we needed to be with Jess. Her kindness and quiet strength helped us through the overwhelming grief of that moment. She treated Jess with the utmost respect and dignity, helping our sweet girl cross the rainbow bridge peacefully and without pain. We are so grateful to Dr. Michelli for her empathy, expertise, and the care she showed both to Jess and to our family during such a painful time. She truly turned an incredibly difficult experience into one filled with compassion and grace. We cannot recommend Dr. Nicolette Michelli and CodaPet highly enough. If you ever find yourself in the heartbreaking position of needing at-home euthanasia for your pet, please reach out to them. They will treat you and your beloved companion with the dignity, respect, and kindness you both deserve. Thank you, Dr. Michelli, from the bottom of our hearts. You helped us give Jess the loving farewell she deserved.

We chose in-home pet euthanasia for our sweet pup, and it was truly the best decision we could have made. Being able to say goodbye in the comfort of our home, where she felt safe and loved, meant everything to us. Dr. McCasland was incredibly compassionate, patient, and respectful throughout the entire process. She explained everything gently, gave us all the time we needed, and made one of the hardest moments feel peaceful and dignified. There was no rush, just space to love on our pup and be present with her in her final moments. While nothing makes losing a pet easy, this experience brought a level of comfort I didn’t know was possible. It was absolutely worth every penny, and I would recommend in-home pet euthanasia to anyone facing this difficult decision. It allowed us to give Luna the goodbye she deserved. We are so grateful for the care and kindness shown to our family by Dr. McCasland. ❤️
