Recent Pet Parent Review
(3) reviews
Very responsive to a same day appointment and even came earlier when notified that Beau had taken a turn for the worse. Once she arrived at the house, she was very calm, which helped us relax. She also was not in a rush to get it done … she waited for us to tell her we were ready—which is a different experience than my parents have encountered with in-home euthanasias—and much appreciated. Her compassion extended past “the appointment”. She made contact with us the following day to see how my daughter was doing. When I was a bit apprehensive about sending Beau’s ashes to our regular vet, she agreed to have him returned to her residence, so that we could pick him up there and ensure positive control. All-in-all, and with respect to the circumstances, it was a very positive experience and the best that you could expect that situation to be—Dr Laura made what was otherwise probably the worst day of my life, just a little bit better. If I’m ever able to take the plunge into fur-parenting again, I would not hesitate to use Dr Laura and Codapets services again when the time came.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Destin, FL

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.

This is the second time Dr. Allison has been there for us in such a difficult time in our lives. I requested her immediately when we knew our 16 month old golden doodle Rutledge's cancer was terminal. She is so very respectful, knowledgeable, loving, kind and calming. The peace we felt in this process at home was priceless. My sweet baby crossed over with his family and his animal family by his side while eating hotdog and whipped cream. Words are just not enough to describe what Dr. Allison gives to her patients and their families. Thank you so much for providing this alternative to traditional euthanasia at the office. Thank you again Dr. Allison for helping carrying the weight of something so painful for us.

Dr. Renee Schott was extremely friendly and understanding of the situation with our elderly cat. My family and I are very appreciative for her explanations and walkthrough of things. This is a difficult review to write and the words are escaping me, but I am confident to say that there could have been no better outcome all thanks to Dr. Schott. Thank you.

Dr.Becca and her colleague made me feel so calm and comfortable. I can't thank them enough for making such a tough day so much easier on my family and I. CodaPet was able to give us a beautiful, peaceful memory of saying goodbye to our good boy Bagel.

Sending our beloved dachshund, Teddy, to the Rainbow Bridge was a profound spiritual experience thanks to the personal and professional manner of Dr. Dzierga. We will forever cherish the memory.

Dr. Steve and his wife was so kind and helpful with Roxy and all the pain I have of losing my best friend (Roxy). They are so kind and considerate of all we went though. Thank you so much.
