Fees & Service Area

Clear, straightforward pricing.

We know there is already a lot to think about when you are preparing to say goodbye to a pet.

We value transparency and simplicity, particularly at a time when families already have enough to worry about. Our aim is to make the practical side of arranging a visit as straightforward as possible.

One clear fee.
No unexpected extras.

Our fee is a single, clear price for your in-home euthanasia visit, with no unexpected extras on the day.

There are no additional charges based on your pet’s size, the amount of sedation or medication required, where you live within our usual service area, or the time of day of your appointment.

The fee covers your veterinary visit, travel within our usual service area, sedation and medications, intravenous catheter placement where appropriate, euthanasia, time with your pet afterwards, and respectful transport for aftercare.

The only optional additional cost is if you choose private cremation with your pet’s ashes returned to you. This service is billed directly to you by the aftercare provider, rather than through Compassionate Paws.

Payment

Payment can be made when booking directly through our website.

If you prefer, we can send you an invoice, which can be paid by bank transfer or debit or credit card.

Cash payment is also welcome at the time of your visit.

Pet insurance

Many pet insurance providers will pay a benefit towards in home euthanasia and associated end of life care.

If you are making a claim, please let us know. We can provide the relevant invoice and veterinary records and, where appropriate, send these directly to your insurer to help make the process as straightforward as possible.

Aftercare

Private cremation and other aftercare

We understand that deciding what happens afterwards can be another difficult part of saying goodbye. We can help make these arrangements as straightforward as possible.

If you would like your pet’s ashes returned to you, private cremation can be arranged through Passing Paws or another aftercare provider of your choice.

Private cremation with ashes returned, along with any optional urns, keepsakes or memorial items you choose, is priced and billed directly by the aftercare provider. There is no separate aftercare charge from Compassionate Paws for arranging respectful transport of your pet.

For current pricing and available options, please contact or visit Passing Paws, or speak directly with your preferred aftercare provider.

If you have previously used another provider and would like to use them again, please let us know. We will work with you to facilitate those arrangements.
