Pricing
Hospice exam and consultation: $150-250
First visits will include gathering a history, exam, consultation, and formulating a plan. This can be a lengthy appointment. Plan for me to be there for about an hour. If any prescription medications are filled, these will be charged in addition.
Teleconsult: $50-75
These appointments are available to anyone with general quality of life questions or as follow-up after a hospice appointment. Prescription medications cannot be prescribed to new clients following a Teleconsult appointment.
In-home gentle Euthanasia: $300
I will come into your home and answer any questions you may have regarding euthanasia. A strong pain medication that includes sedation will be administered. This will allow your pet to get comfortable and sleepy within about 5-10 minutes. When it is time, a second medication will be given to help your pet pass gently.
Sometimes, I don’t hear from families until it is time for their beloved pet to pass. I do not require a hospice visit prior to a euthanasia appointment. If needed, we can start with an assessment, and then proceed to euthanasia if so decided.
Aftercare options:
If you/your family have decided to bury at home, I will leave after your pet has passed. Please check with the city to confirm that you are in a location where pet burial is allowed.
