About Vet
Dr. Brandon Meadows was born and raised in Central Florida and understands just how important it is for pets to be surrounded by love and comfort—especially in their final moments. After completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Florida, he earned his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in St. Kitts and Nevis. Now based in the Ocala area near family and friends, Dr. Meadows is honored to bring compassionate end-of-life care to families in the comfort of their own homes. Having witnessed many goodbyes in a clinical setting, Dr. Meadows knows how difficult and emotional that experience can be. That’s why he’s committed to providing a peaceful and personal alternative—one that allows you to say goodbye to your beloved companion without the added stress of a trip to the clinic. He’ll take the time to listen to your needs and guide you through the process with empathy and care, making sure your pet’s passing is as gentle as the love you’ve shared. Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. Meadows enjoys spending time with his loved ones, traveling, reading, and relaxing near the water. At home, he shares his life with Seely, a gentle 7-year-old Great Pyrenees, and three snakes—Kobe, a boa constrictor, and Bree and Kara, both ball pythons. He looks forward to helping your family navigate this tender time with dignity and compassion.

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.

I'm so grateful we found this service. It was time to let our sweet elderly dog go but knew we didn't want to cause him more stress by taking him to the vet. We were able to have his passing at home, surrounded by our family and our other pets. Dr Laura was so kind, gentle, and sensitive to our needs. She expertly guided us our grief journey and was able to coordinate cremation as well.

They are amazing! My baby was only 6 years old. And he was poisoned only the poison didn’t take him right away it was slow and we didn’t know what was happening to him . He just lost himself he was no longer the dog we knew he became almost like mentally challenged and senile at the same time . I brought him to the vet and the blood work came back clear. So for a couple months he went from just acting mentally challenged but still eating drinking and walking on his Owen still trying to play but being kind of aggressive to not walking or eating on his Owen to potting in the kennel and the house vertigo really bad and I had had enough I couldn’t get him in the car he started having seizures and I didn’t want him to be scared but it was time. I wanted him free of whatever this was that took my baby. Dr. Vosburg was so patient and gentle and she came to the house no judgment at all just kind and compassionate she went slow and at his side she gave him the sleep meds let us love on him and then sent him on his way to freedom . My heart is never gonna be the same after having that bundle of energy that loving adorable baby in my life , and even though I wasn’t supposed to be sending him off yet , as sudden as it was , having him sent off that way was perfect and I felt ok sending him with her. They are just amazing people and I’ll forever call on them when I need to. Thank y’all so much.

Dr. Duncan is so compassionate and caring and made such a heartbreaking experience a little easier to bear. We made the difficult decision to put down our senior kitty Angus, and we knew we wanted him to be comfortable at home and with his family when he passed over the rainbow bridge. I called CodaPet late on a Friday afternoon and Karen called us back within 20 minutes. She was able to come to our home later the same day and she was just amazing. Karen put us at ease, explained the process, and treated Angus as if he was her own. If you are contemplating having your per euthanized at home, I would highly recommend Dr. Duncan and CodaPet. The extra expense is priceless.

Dr Courtney Mills was excellent. She is very loving, explained what was going to happen clearly, allowed both of our dogs to become comfortable with her before she did anything. She said it best, her job was to be as gentle as possible. She was. CodaPet made the whole process easier.

It seems an odd thing to give 5 stars for an in home pet euthanasia service. But, from the care of the phone call and the event itself...it felt like another member of our family was helping us through this terrible time and celebration of our small dog's life. Ava dog was 15.5 when she passed and suddenly in a lot of pain. Dr. Megan Lowman opened up and added a 9pm appointment to her schedule to help our sweet Ava in her time of need. She was careful, caring, loving, soft spoken, informative, and patient. The back of her van was set up like a small, clean and beautiful little bed... to take our baby girl to In Memorial Pet Cremation Services (also, 5 stars...I can't say enough kind words) . She was attentive and must have listened to all of the emotional stories and nonsense I was saying...because she sent a detailed and very personal card a few days later that mentioned our family members' names and even personal details about Ava's life. Thank you, Dr. Lowman and the wonderfully caring customer service at CodaPet for making this transition as caring and loving as possible.

Dr. Perzak was very compassionate and supportive during our family's difficult time of letting go of our sweet Lilly! She was kind & patient. My son is military so he was not able to be home to say his goodbyes to his childhood dog. He was able to be a part via video call & she took the time to talk with him as well to include him in the moments to say goodbye. Her genuine compassion of our loss helped us understand why it was best to let our Lilly go who was very sick. Our family appreciates everything she did for us! Thank you so much Dr. Perzak!♥️
