Euthanasia Pricing

The charge for a home euthanasia with Journey’s End is on the chart below. This pricing covers a radius of 15 miles around my home base, using Google maps. For your calculations, please use 178 Baboosic Lake Rd., Merrimack, NH 03054 as the starting point. We will travel 45 minutes each way from the starting point, though slightly longer distances may be considered, time permitting. Please add $20 for each additional 5 miles for time and gas.

The basic charge includes the home visit by Dr. Sernik, sedation, the actual euthanasia, biohazard disposal of the needles, an ink paw print on a sympathy card, extra ink prints, and a clay paw print. PLEASE NOTE: The euthanasia prices are based on the pet’s HEAVIEST weight. For example, if your pet weighed 55 lbs and now weighs 45, the drugs used will be for a 55 lb. dog. It is important to use enough sedation and euthanasia drugs to make the process peaceful, painless, and effective for your special friend. Aftercare prices are based on the pet’s CURRENT weight.

The charges for aftercare depend on your choice. You can bury your pet at home at no charge. Options offered by Journey’s End include communal cremation (more than one pet cremated together), and private cremation(only your pet in the crematory, with ashes returned to you in a nice urn). There is a choice of five urns included in the private cremation price. You can either opt for the UPS signature required service to return the Ashes, which will cost $27 as charged by Final Gift, or you can personally collect them from Journey’s End in Merrimack.

Please note that there may be an emergency fee of $50-$100 at Dr. Sernik’s discretion for evening visits, early mornings, weekends, holidays, or emergencies that require moving other appointments to accommodate your pet.

End-of-Life Visits

The basic charge is $420 for the initial, one hour in-home consultation within 15 miles of 178 Baboosic Lake Rd., Merrimack, NH 04054. Please add $20 for each additional 5 miles. This entitles you to not only the in-home consult, but on-going care through e-mail contact and short phone calls. Recheck exams will be shorter and less expensive ($150 base).
