Walk-In Services

Deciding to lay your beloved family companion down is probably one of the hardest decisions you will ever have to make, and Pets At Peace Crematory can assist you.  While we all hope and pray that they will transition on their own, sometimes that just does not happen.  First and foremost, as the Owner, you have options available to you.  Whether you have your beloved family companion laid down at your home or you take them to a veterinarian clinic/hospital, you have the choice of either leaving them at the clinic/hospital or bringing them directly to us.  With a simple phone call, we can set up an appointment (please do not just show up), and assist you with all of the arrangements.  

 

Let us help you make this incredibly difficult time a little bit easier.

VETERINARIAN/CREMATORY PARTNERSHIPS

Should price be the only factor when choosing a pet crematory as your partner?

 

Since it made the national news coast to coast, it is pretty safe to say most everyone heard about the human crematory in the State of Georgia and their despicable practices.  While it did not necessarily hurt the pet cremation industry, it did make many pet owner’s wary of pet crematories as well.  This section was created to assist you, the veterinarian, in choosing the right crematory for your clients'. The most important thing to remember is that cheaper is not always better. When "partnering" with a crematory, ask questions about their cremation process. Ask to take a tour of their facility. Make sure that what they are promising you is even feasible. Remember, the more educated you are in the cremation process, the better you are able to assist your clients'.  Pet crematories for the most part are unregulated; therefore, you can and should recommend the pet crematory that has the highest standards, ethics and morals.  Your client’s count on you to do so and will be forever grateful.  No one knows better than you how important our beloved family companions are to us.  We care for them, we love them, and we nurse them when they are ill. 

 

We want to make sure we make the best decisions for them that we possibly can, in life as well as in death.  Pet owner’s go through a very lengthy process in choosing the right Veterinarian for their beloved family companion.  They place their complete trust in you concerning healthcare issues.  That is why when it comes to the end of their life, pet owner’s turn to you for guidance, support and advice concerning after death choices.  That is why choosing to partner with an ethical, moral, respectful and dignified crematorium is probably the most thoughtful decision you could make for your clients’.
