Dr. Meadows was absolutely wonderful. He was kind, compassionate, and attentive to my kitties needs. His comfort and care made the procedure a million times more tolerable. It was quick and painless for my precious baby and I’m forever grateful Dr. Meadows was our doctor. After I scheduled, he called and offered to come right away, even in rush hour traffic. He followed up with a beautiful sympathy card which was so special to us. I highly recommend Dr. Meadows. You won’t find anyone as compassionate and kind.

Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Ocala, 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.

Our beautiful, sweet, much-loved Kitty, contracted a rare, fatal disease which moved through her much faster than planned. As a result, we couldn't wait for our usual home vet to come to the house on Monday as scheduled. I found CodaPet online and, knowing I had minimal choices last minute, I crossed my fingers and scheduled the appointment. I was pleasantly surprised that I could schedule during the evening. Dr. Laurie Noe and her partner, Bill, couldn't have been lovelier, more compassionate, warm and professional. They were amazing and made a very challenging and sad time as tolerable as possible. Kitty passed in a relaxed, pain-free way, in my lap - her favorite place in the world. Dr. Noe offered some little extras like a paw print, a fur shaving, and carried her out in a little basket with a fresh blanket. I highly recommend them. XO

There are endless things I could say about Dr. Megan Lowman, yet somehow none of them feel big enough to truly capture who she is. It may sound corny to say she has wings on her back—but sometimes the most heartfelt truths do sound that way. Because she does. From the moment she walks through the door, her empathy, kindness, and love fill every corner of the room. Dr. Megan has now guided us through saying goodbye to two beloved members of our family—first Paddington, and most recently, Teddy. When we learned what Teddy was facing, I knew instantly that she was the only person I wanted by our side. She doesn’t just provide a service; she feels like family. She understands your heartbreak without you needing to explain it, and she stays fully present, offering steady compassion and genuine love in every moment. I felt an immediate connection to her during Paddington’s passing—a deep sense of gratitude and trust from the very beginning. So when it was Teddy’s time, there was no question that we needed that same tenderness and grace. And once again, the moment she arrived, the fear, anxiety, and overwhelming sadness softened. In their place, she brought calm, comfort, and peace. Dr. Megan, you are truly extraordinary. Your compassion fills a space in a way that words can hardly describe. I am profoundly grateful—for your kindness, your warmth, and the love you showed my sweet Teddy. The difference you made in our home during such a painful moment is something I will always carry with me. I am also deeply thankful to you and to Codpet for providing such a gentle, thoughtful service. Being able to let Teddy fall asleep in my office—one of his favorite places—without the disruption of a car ride, without stress or confusion, and without making that heartbreaking drive home alone… it was more than I could have hoped for. It was a gift. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, Krista Geller.

Dr. Bates was incredibly empathetic and thoughtful and professional. She clearly explained every step, checked in with us to make sure we were ready for each step, and offered us extra space if we wanted it along the way. I would recommend Dr. Bates in a heartbeat.

Sadly, we said our goodbyes to our faithful 4 legged companion of 18 years, Rudy - a Dutch spaniel ( kooikerhondje) on 27 Feb 2026. The " at home" final farewell with Dr. Sims was compassionate and peaceful. Very glad that we could say our good- byes in this way. Rudy- long may you run! Marc and Lori , Bourne, Mass.

Review by Dr. Brandon Meadows

Dr. Meadows was amazing with us and our pet in our time of need. I could see that my cat needed assistance right away, and he showed up for us and more. He was very clear, but empathetic, about what would happen and when when the time came, and he and his team did an incredible job seeing through that her remains were handled respectfully and with care. You can tell Dr. Meadows really understands and cares for animals and the people who love them. I cannot express how thankful I am that he showed up for us when he did and helped my cat pass on. Thank you so much 🙏
