When your pet passes away, figuring out what to do next can be overwhelming. While some pets may pass at the veterinarian’s office, where aftercare arrangements are often more straightforward, this isn’t always the case. The loss may happen at home, in a stable, or perhaps in a barn, leaving you with the burden of figuring out how to transport your pet for final care.
Our at-home pickup services provide a more compassionate and convenient solution for this challenging time. The Pet Cremation Services experienced team members are trained to handle these situations with the utmost respect, arriving at your location to transport your pet according to the process we’ve refined over the past 25 years. This trustworthy and sensitive approach allows you to focus on saying goodbye, while we take care of the rest, providing support in this difficult time.
What Happens When We Arrive at Your Home?
Once a designated team member arrives at your home, they will confirm the type of cremation you would like for your beloved companion – a private or communal cremation. If you wish to receive your pet’s cremated remains, you will choose a private cremation, and your pet will be returned to you. We encourage you to take all the time you need with this decision, bringing any questions you might have about the cremation process to our team members.
During the pickup, a member of our team may also ask if you’re interested in memorializing your pet and will be able to walk you through our memorial packages and options. Memorializing your pet is a great way to honor the bond you shared, offering a sense of closure and a lasting tribute to the love they brought into your life.
What Happens After We Leave Your Home?
Once we pick up your pet, they will be taken to our crematory, where we ensure their cremation aligns with your wishes. For those who select a private cremation, our dedicated and compassionate drivers will return your pet’s remains to you promptly, adhering to our strict code of ethics. Typically, you can expect the return of your pet’s cremains within two business days, depending on your location.
At Pet Cremation Services, we are committed to treating every animal with the respect they deserve from the moment a pet is picked up until the moment remains are returned to their family.
