Yolo County Animal Services handles euthanasia requests by appointment only to ensure that we have a staff member available to perform the euthanasia when the pet is brought in.

Typically appointments are offered Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 10 am-12 pm. The fee for euthanasia is $55.

You are not allowed to be present for euthanasia. If you would like that option, we recommend reaching out to the Sacramento SPCA as they do offer in-person end-of-life services for pets. If you are surrendering a pet for euthanasia due to a behavior issue, it must be approved by a supervisor before an appointment can be issued.
