Pet euthanasia and cremation pricing in Orange, CA
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.

Dr Hundley was so compassionate, even on our first phone call. She came into our home quietly and with nothing but respect. The process was painless and peaceful. Dr. Huntley included our other pup, Maggie. Maggie and Gigi had been a closely bonded pair. Everyone had time to say goodbye lovingly and peacefully. Thank you so very much.
Dr. Vosburg made one of the hardest moments of our lives easier to process. Her naturally caring and empathetic nature put everyone at ease during our baby, Sherbert's, final moments. We were grateful to have the option of in home pet euthanasia and recommend this service to anyone looking for a peaceful goodbye. Thank you again, Dr. Michelle.
Natalie came to the house to help me say goodbye to my 19 yo Aussie. She was polite, professional and funny too. She explained everything before she did it, was super patient with my other dog, who had to stick her nose in whatever she was doing. She stayed for a while to be certain everything was good, as good as it can be when putting an old freind down. She was very gentle. I highly recommend her if ever you need this service. Thanks Natalie!
