Compassionate Pet Cremation

Allen and Elizabeth (and the gentleman who works in back) are all kind and compassionate people. I called them when I lost my old boy, Chip, who was 17 — very old for a Lab.
I decided I’d take my dog to them, rather than leaving him at the hospital to be picked up later. When I called to tell them I was on my way, Allen urged me to pull over if I started to feel overwhelmed.
Elizabeth was waiting for me and gave me a hug when she saw how devastated I felt. She guided me through the choices and showed me the metal tag that would accompany Chip so I would be sure to receive the correct remains. Since I was only in town visiting, they arranged for him to be ready quickly — a gesture I really appreciate. I also love the framed paw print with locks of his hair.
Saying goodbye is so hard and this is the second dog I lost in as many months. Knowing it was coming soon didn’t lessen the pain, but the care and compassion we were given helped. I definitely recommend Compassionate Pet Cremation when the need arises.

We happened on the Compassionate booth at the Family, Fur, & Friends festival a month or so ago and spoke with Elizabeth. We took their information «just in case» because we had a 19 year old German Pinscher, but were hoping not to have to call them. He crashed quickly and we had to let him go the day before Thanksgiving. I called Compassionate after I called the vet to make the appointment. There were a few wrinkles, but Elizabeth could not have been more professional and, for that, Compassionate will be our choice for all future needs of this nature (although, I hope not to have to call them anytime soon). Thank you for making a hard time a little easier.

A month ago I had to put my pet down. At the vet I signed all the paperwork, paid for a private cremation with ashes back and paw print.
This process was supposed to take 7 – 10 days. I called the vet and they found it odd they did not have the ashes back either.
They called this company who said they never got my pet. The vet spent three days going through all the paperwork, reviewed their camera’s showing footage of an employee picking up two dogs the next morning, my dog and one other were the only two animals that left the facility that day and this is the only company that picked up two animals, yet this company said they have no record of picking up two dogs???
ITS ON CAMERA??? They ignored the tags, they did not do what they were supposed to do and now I am waiting for the vet to meet with the owner of this company. Either way, they lost my pet, they did not properly log my pet in, and at this point she was probably part of a mass cremation.
The bottom line, there is NO COMPASSION from this company, they are saying «we don’t have a record of it so it did not happen». Did I mention ITS ON CAMERA SHOWING IT DID HAPPEN???
BEWARE of this place, Compassionate is in name only apparently.

Allen and the office manager Elizabeth were so very helpful during a difficult time. Professional and will answer any questions you may have. Allen personally picked up our dog from the vets office within an hour of the vet’s office opening the following day. They will treat not only your pet with respect, but you as well. Will definately use them again.

I didn’t think I would ever lose my little Tucker. I had this unrealistic idea in my head that he’d always be there, by my side. He was a chihuahua but only by breed, he didn’t bark like one or bite little kids like most do. He loved our entire family, from 34 to 3yrs old. I am so very thankful to have been informed of this place when he suddenly passed. I was in shock. I was completely destroyed when I lost him. Not only was Allen completely understanding, he was so sweet. He waited after hours for me to bring my precious baby in. I could barely get a sentence out when I walked through the door. He shook my hand & tried his best to console the stranger he had crying in his business. I picked up my little boy today, 3yr old in tow, & I must say. It sure makes you feel better having your pet back home with you. He’s never too far away. God forbid, I ever need to have another pet taken care of, but when I do. I’ll definitely be returning. And I’ve already told all my friends & family how amazing they were

I thought that my heart was ripping out when my almost 15 year old dog passed away. Allen was incredibly caring and sympathetic with my loss and the service was incredibly quick. My almost 50 pound dog was brought to Compassionate Pet Cremation on a Sunday and available on Tuesday (2 days later).
The frame with his fur and his paw as a gift was so incredibly thoughtful that we bought another one along with a card. Incredibly reasonably priced and we had the incredible service providing by Allen.
Our family was so grateful to work with someone that understood our pain and was so gentle. Will definitely be distributing business cards to friends with older dogs who ask about our experience.

Allen waited for us after hours with our beloved family pet. He was compassionate and empathetic. Compassionate Pet Cremation went above and beyond in fact they were not phased when we changed the urn requirements. You never want to think about the future however if we had to use a pet cremation service again we would not hesitate to use them.
Thank you for helping us cope at this difficult time.

Yes allen and his staff are amazing… They took the saddest day of my life and made it a very calming, meaningful moment… We had to put our 13 year old Boston terrier down and when I called he was so so so compassionate, caring and understanding of our needs. I hope I never have to use their services ever again but the truth is that our best friends can’t live forever… If you need this service you would be wasting your time even calling another place…

Thank you for the love and compassion you showed from the phone call to the picking my Dane up Forever grateful. #Dane Strong !

Losing a beloved fur baby is so difficult so I am very thankful that Allen and his staff are sincere, caring and authentic. This is the second time we have had to use their services unfortunately. June 22, 2014 our 6 year old cat and July 23, 2015 our boy, Lucky, almost 12 y/​o Rott mix. He truly was the best dog we ever had and losing both was heart wrenching so having a service that helps at one of the most vulnerable and emotional times for pet owners with sincerity and professionalism. I would highly recommend this service to anyone who needs this service because they take care of everything and on both occasions we received our babies ashes within 3 days and for some reason having them home with us again does help with the grieving process for me.

Allen and the staff have taken delicate and fine care of three pets we have lost since moving to Vegas. Our blessed 17 year kitty, Cleo, 2012; much loved and adored 8 year old Ari — our chocolate lab in 2014 and most recently, Kaia our funny little mixture. She lived a great 11 years, passed away on July 3, 2015. They have made the loss of our family members a little easier to deal with and carry on. These folks are simply a blessing to those of us when we lose a pet.

Allen and his staff go the extra mile to ensure everything is exactly right. They are sincere, compassionate and caring. Good people. I lost two pets in less than two weeks. Allen took care of everything. There are so many urn’s to choose from. You will be sure to find the perfect one for your loving pet.
I sincerely recommend Compassionate Pet Cremation to anyone who needs their services. The walls are covered with «Thank You» cards from all the grateful clients they have served in the past. This is a special place indeed. Thank you, Allen.

After losing my sweet girl Ivory, I decided to have her cremated so she would continue to be with us at home. I’m so happy I chose Compassionate Pet Cremations. Allen and Elizabeth were so kind, compassionate and sincere. They made this sad situation into something beautiful and healing. I highly recommend them!

I chose this place based on the reviews I saw here, and I did not go wrong. Everything I wanted to say has already been said. Allen was kind and sympathetic from the first phone call to the final visit to pick up our sweet Duncan. The prices are reasonable and they added some special touches that mean so much. I would and will recommend this place to anyone in need of their services.

It was my first time losing a pet and I didn’t know how the process worked. Once I called I was not only given the upmost respect but absolute sincerity. They not only gave me the choice of where to pick him up but the choice of where was most convenient. I picked up my little guy today and couldn’t stop crying, not because of the loss but because of how well I know they treated him. My black lab puppy happened to have a small white spot on his chest and the lock of hair that was not only included with his ashes but in his memorial frame had included some of his white spot. The consideration alone made me know that he was treated with respect AND love and I could not thank them enough for that.

Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest things you can ever do but this is the second time I have used Compassionate Pet Cremations and cannot recommend them enough. Allen is genuinely sympathetic and makes this heart-​wrenching task as bearable as possible. Both of my little furry family members are back home where they belong in nice little urns and each one has a paw-​print and a lock of hair displayed in a tasteful frame with which to remember them by. Thank you, Allen. And he genuinely means it when he tells you ‘I hope not to see you again soon’

I found Compassionate Pet Cremation here on Unilocal.I was surprised by the many 5 star ratings. I looked at the website and it was simple compared to other crematoriums. Often times people choose a service based on their website, myself included and I am glad I didn’t do that this time!
While their website is not as fancy as the others, I can definitely confirm the five star reviews the others have given on Unilocal.We brought our cat to the facility on 1÷3÷15. My sweet boy passed on New Year’s Day and I was worried that no one would be open. I knew that I would have to keep him around until I found a place to cremate him and that was agony in itself. This is the only crematory I found that was advertised as open on the weekend.
Upon arrival, Allen requested that I place the box I put my cat in on this red velvet covered table. He then proceeded to cover the box as if he was tucking my baby into sleep. I almost lost it and started crying again because I was taken back by his sincerity and compassion. He explained the process, we discussed prices and then he invited me to look around for a specialty urn if I wanted. He was so caring and nice that I wish I had the $ 600 I paid to the vet to help my baby, so I could have spent it there instead. Once business was handled, I felt a heavy burden being lifted and I knew my baby would be in good hands. It’s not often you receive good vibes during a painful transaction such as this. If you need pet cremation services, please try this place out. I can assure you that you will not be disappointed.
Thanks Again!

Absolutely would recommend this place in a heart beat. They are very professional from the beginning to the end! I found this place on Unilocal and I am so glad I did. I dropped my best friend or 8 years off after getting hit on a Saturday and he was ready to come home by Monday. They issued me a certificate, and made a little memorial frame with his paw print and clippings of his hair. They also sent me home with a beautiful card and their apologies. I wish I hadn’t of had to find this place, but given the circumstances I’m
Glad I did. I hope I don’t have to use their services again, but I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for these specific services and is in a great deal or mourning. Great job compassionate pets. I value you more than you know!!! The price is also very reasonable for everything they do for you!!!

I have been so touched by the kindness and COMPASSION of the gentleman here at Compassionate Pet Cremation, anyone I’ve encountered here really. I have — sadly, heartbreakingly — used their services twice in just 13 months after the losses of two of my beloved Aussie girls. My dogs always hold my heart and my experience here has been wonderful with the sincere sympathy they show. I came here last year on the recommendation of my sister in law and will most certainly recommend them as well, at every sad opportunity. It’s hard to lose a pet; the people who run this sweet little place know that and treat you with genuine care. Thank you, Compassionate Pet Cremation, for being such a comfort and for what you offer those of us who want a beautiful memorial for our lost loved ones. If you are looking for cremation services for you lost pet, look no further and you will not regret it.

Our 1^st experience– November 2005– my husband’s beloved dog (Homer):
The vet’s office arranged it; though this was very painful, was very pleasant, after everything was done. Homer’s remains were placed in a nice little cedar wood box and a Rainbow Bridge poem featuring some locks of his hair.
Our 2^nd experience– September 2013– my beloved dog (Kia):
My vet arranged it. The presentation was much more, than our first experience. In addition to Kia’s remains placed in a wooden box, I also received a Rainbow Bridge poem with her locks of hair, an impression of her paw print in a leatherette case– that was very sweet, and a little seedling packet (a nice gesture). Everything was encased in a sage green pretty drawstring bag, which was presented in a black on white, paw printed gift bag. This was impressive and thoughtful. (Compared to our first experience, which seemed basic.)
I’d like to think that Homer & Kia are back together again, both healthy, vibrant, and filled with energy, and enjoying their time together, as they had before, in the past. They were unlikely buddies. Imagine a yorkie with a pitbull-​lab mix, haha, funny, I know.
Losing a furry member of the family is very, very difficult (as I am typing this, I find myself tearing up again), and getting THE experienced pet cremation service in town, makes this painful process a little easier.
Professional. Thoughtful. Experienced. I am sure we will need their services again, as we cannot imagine our lives without dogs. Highly recommend this company.
