Private Cremation
A private cremation is when your pet is gently and respectfully placed in the crematory and cremated alone. Each pet is given an individual tag with a number that remains with the pet so they can always be identified. At the end of the cremation, you will receive all of your pet’s remains in one of our standard urns. If you’d prefer a different urn, you are more than welcome to purchase one of our premium urns for an additional fee or bring your own at no charge.
A certificate of cremation will be given to you along with the remains. You may pick up the remains at our facility or we will take them to your veterinarian’s office for no additional charge.
Private cremations are $125 plus $1 per pound.
Communal Cremation
Communal cremation is when your pet is gently and respectfully placed in the crematory with other pets. These pets are not separated and their ashes cannot be returned to you if you choose this service. Their ashes will be scattered respectfully at the discretion of the crematory.
Communal cremations are $65 plus $0.50 per pound.
Pick up and Delivery
We will transport your pet from your veterinarian’s office and return remains from private cremations at no extra charge. All pets are identified immediately with numbered metal tags. We will pick up and return your pet to your residence for an additional fee if you would prefer. You may also transport your pet yourself if you would like, this option needs to be scheduled.
We also pick up outside of our area! There is an additional charge for pickups more than 30 miles from our facility. Please contact us for more information.
