Hilshire Village Pet Crematory Since 1989
We’ve been serving Hilshire Village and Harris County families for over 35 years, long before corporate chains started shipping pets across state lines. We’re your local neighbors who understand that losing a pet means losing a family member.
Our two full-time veterinarians and trained staff treat every pet with the same dignity we’d want for our own companions. As members of the American Association for Pet Loss and Bereavement, we maintain the highest professional standards in pet aftercare.
We serve the diverse communities throughout Harris County, including families who prefer Spanish-speaking support during this difficult time. Because grief doesn’t discriminate, and neither should compassionate care.
Emergency Pet Pickup Process
First, you call us any time, day or night. We answer the phone personally—not a call center—and arrange immediate pickup from your home, vet’s office, or wherever your pet needs to be collected.
Next, we transport your companion to our facility with complete dignity and respect. Your pet enters our unique tracking system immediately, so you know exactly where they are at every step.
Then comes individual cremation, where your pet is the only one in the chamber. We clean thoroughly between each cremation and maintain detailed records. You receive a certificate documenting the entire process, plus your pet’s ashes in your chosen container within 24-48 hours.

Hilshire Village Emergency Pet Services
Your emergency pickup includes transportation from anywhere in the Hilshire Village area, individual cremation with full tracking, basic urn, and certificate of cremation. No surprise fees, no “additional handling charges,” no fine print.
Hilshire Village families appreciate our transparent approach because grief is hard enough without worrying about unexpected costs. We also offer upgraded memorial urns, paw print impressions, and fur clippings if you want something extra to remember your pet.
Same-day and next-day options are available because we know grief doesn’t follow a schedule. We’re open seven days a week for witness cremations—something no other local service offers—so you can say goodbye properly when you’re ready.
Do you really pick up pets 24/7 in Hilshire Village?
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency pickup throughout Hilshire Village and the surrounding Harris County area. When your pet passes at 2 AM on a Saturday, you don’t have to wait until Monday morning like with most other services.
We answer our phone personally, not through a call center, and can typically arrange pickup within a few hours of your call. Our goal is to reach families within an 8-mile radius of our facility, though we can sometimes accommodate special requests beyond that range.
This around-the-clock availability ensures that your pet’s remains are handled promptly and with dignity, regardless of when the loss occurs.
How do I know I'm getting my own pet's ashes back?
We guarantee individual cremation, meaning your pet is the only one in the cremation chamber. This is different from “partitioned” or “segregated” cremation where multiple pets are separated by dividers but cremated simultaneously.
Our unique tracking system follows your pet from pickup through return, with detailed records maintained at every step. The chamber is thoroughly cleaned between each cremation, and you receive a certificate of cremation with all the documentation.
You get complete certainty that the ashes you receive are actually your pet’s—no wondering, no guessing, just peace of mind during an already difficult time.
What areas around Hilshire Village do you serve for pickup?
We serve Hilshire Village and the surrounding Harris County communities, including Spring, The Woodlands, Conroe, and nearby Memorial Villages. Our goal is to reach families within an 8-mile radius of our facility for standard pickup service.
If you’re unsure whether we serve your specific location, just call us. We work hard to help every family during their difficult time and will let you know right away if we can reach you for pickup service.
We also pick up from most veterinary offices in the area at no extra charge, or we can arrange home pickup for families who prefer that option.
How quickly can you return my pet's ashes after pickup?
Most families receive their pet’s ashes within 24-48 hours of pickup. We offer same-day cremation service where your beloved pet can be returned to you within 24 hours of entering our care, and we even deliver ashes to your home that evening in many cases.
This fast turnaround is particularly valuable for families who want to avoid the emotional distress of waiting and wondering. We’re also open on weekends, which is a huge advantage since most places aren’t available during weekends.
The exact timeline depends on your chosen service level and current volume, but we always communicate clearly about when you can expect your pet’s return.
Do you offer witness cremation services in Hilshire Village?
Yes, we’re the only local service that offers walk-in witness cremations seven days a week. This means you can schedule an appointment where you and your family view your pet’s cremation process for complete closure and peace of mind.
Many families find witnessing the cremation helps with the grieving process and provides absolute certainty about their pet’s care. We provide a private, respectful environment where you can say your final goodbyes properly.
Our witness cremation service can be scheduled at your convenience, and we have two full-time veterinarians on staff to ensure everything is handled with professional dignity throughout the process.
What's the difference between your service and cheaper group cremation?
Group cremation means multiple pets are cremated together, and the ashes are typically scattered or buried—you don’t get ashes back. Some places offer “partitioned” cremation where pets are separated by dividers, but we believe individual cremation is the only way to guarantee you’re getting your own pet back.
Individual cremation costs more than group cremation, but most Hilshire Village families find the peace of mind worth it when they’re already saying goodbye to a family member. You get your pet back exactly as promised, with complete certainty those ashes are actually your companion’s.
Our individual cremation includes pickup, full tracking, basic urn, and certificate of cremation—no surprise fees or hidden charges during your time of grief.
