Pet Services
The relationship between human and animal is a special and unique bond, just as important and valuable as the bonds between people. They are friends, family, companions, confidantes and playmates. Our pets provide us with unconditional love, acceptance, support and devotion.
Remembering your pet with love and creating meaningful memories can help aid you on your healing journey. While there are many ways to memorialize your pet, making final arrangements can significantly help the grieving process. Here at VB Pets, our pet services are designed to provide the same level of care, dignity and respect we offer for all families we
serve.
PRIVATE CREMATION
With private cremation, each pet is cremated individually with no other pets present. This ensures your pet’s remains are never co-mingled with another pet and you are guaranteed to have your pet’s ashes returned to you. This option includes cremation, an Oak Wood Urn and a Certificate of Remembrance. Remains can be picked up at our office or returned to the vet clinic at no additional cost. Transfer of remains into our care, urns and scattering of ashes in our cemetery are
available at an additional cost.

COMMUNAL CREMATION
Communal cremation is the process of cremating several pets together at the same time. With this option, the ashes cannot be returned. Instead, they will be scattered in a designated area of our cemetery grounds. We also offer the option of a Certificate of Remembrance at no additional fee. Transfer of remains into our care is available for an additional cost.

TRANSFER INTO OUR CARE
To transfer your pet into our care, you have the option to bring your pet to us or arrange for us to pick them up from your home or a vet clinic or hospital. Depending on your choice, the time of day and the day of week will determine any fees. Business Hours are considered to be Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm, excluding holidays. Pickup fees are based on a 45-mile radius of our funeral home.
Please call prior to drop-off to ensure staff is available.
