Pet Cremation Process Explained

Simple, Transparent Process From Start to Finish

First, you bring your pet to our facility or we can arrange pickup from your veterinarian. We’ll discuss your preferences for urns and any memorial options you’d like.

Next, we perform individual cremation in our on-site crematorium. If you choose, you can witness the process for complete peace of mind. Each pet is cremated separately to ensure you receive only your pet’s ashes.

Finally, we return your pet’s ashes in the urn of your choice, typically within 3-5 business days. We’ll call when everything is ready, and you can pick up at your convenience.

How long does the pet cremation process take?

The cremation process itself takes 2-4 hours depending on your pet’s size, but we typically return ashes within 3-5 business days. This gives us time to properly process everything and prepare your chosen urn or memorial items. If you need faster service due to special circumstances, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate. We never rush the process, but we understand some families have urgent needs for travel or memorial services.
Individual cremation means your pet is cremated alone, and you receive only your pet’s ashes back. Communal cremation means multiple pets are cremated together, and ashes are not returned to families. We only offer individual cremation because we believe every pet deserves individual dignity, and every family deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing they’re receiving their own pet’s ashes. The cost difference is worth it for the certainty and closure it provides.
Yes, we offer witness cremation services for families who want to be present. Many people find this provides closure and complete peace of mind about the process. We’ll schedule a specific time for your pet’s cremation, and you can stay for as much or as little of the process as feels right for you. There’s no judgment either way – some families find it comforting, while others prefer to remember their pet as they were. We support whatever choice feels right for your family.
We offer a range of urns from simple, dignified options included with cremation service to premium hardwood, marble, and custom engraved urns. Many families choose photo urns that display their favorite picture of their pet. We also have biodegradable urns for families planning to scatter ashes in a special location. During your visit, we’ll show you all available options so you can choose what feels right. You’re also welcome to provide your own urn if you have something special in mind.
Yes, we work with veterinarian offices throughout Bellaire and the greater Houston area. If your pet passes at the vet’s office, we can typically arrange pickup within the same day. This saves you from having to transport your pet during an already difficult time. We’ll coordinate directly with your vet’s office to handle paperwork and scheduling. Just let your veterinarian know you’d like to use Angel Oaks Pet Crematory, and we can contact you directly to arrange everything.
Cremation costs vary based on your pet’s size and the services you choose, but we believe in transparent pricing with no surprise fees. Basic individual cremation with a standard urn starts at a reasonable rate, with additional costs only for upgraded urns or memorial items you specifically request. We’ll provide exact pricing when you call or visit, and we’ll never pressure you into services you don’t want. Payment can be made at the time of service, and we accept cash, check, and credit cards for your convenience.
