Olcott Pet Crematory Services

Four Decades of Compassionate Care

Angel Oaks Pet Crematory has been serving Harris County families since 1989, built on a foundation of genuine compassion rather than corporate efficiency. When our current owner inherited the business from his father, he understood that this work isn’t just about cremation—it’s about helping families through one of their most difficult experiences.

Unlike the large corporate chains that have moved into the area, we remain family-owned and locally focused. Our two full-time veterinarians ensure that every pet receives professional, dignified care throughout the entire process.

We’ve earned the trust of Olcott families by doing what we say we’ll do, when we say we’ll do it. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden emergency or planning ahead, our 24/7 availability means you’re never alone in this process.

Most families find this transparency incredibly comforting during a time when so much feels uncertain.

The entire process typically completes within 24 hours, often by the next morning. We’ll contact you when everything is ready, and you can choose pickup or delivery of your pet’s remains.
