“The way we received Minnie’s cremains in the privacy of the chapel where we could say goodbye and grieve was touching. Angel’s Paws is the only facility I’ve seen that has such a deep understanding of how much we love our companion animals.”

However, if you prefer, you can bring your pet to us for our special cremation service, we have a beautiful receiving room for you.
After cremation, if you prefer your pets ashes be delivered to your home instead of picking up at our building, a fee of $35 will apply.
Chapel Return
Scheduling a cremation or keepsake return in our chapel is a private moment to reflect on the life you shared with your pet. You may schedule a chapel return appointment beginning as early as two business days after we receive your pet. Our goal is to get your pet’s ashes and/or keepsakes home with you as soon as you are ready. Appointments are offered in 30 minute windows, so we hope that you will be able to find a perfect time to come in.
If you prefer your pets ashes be delivered to your home instead of picking up at our building, a fee of $35 will apply.
“Angel’s Paws treats your pet with love, care and respect, everything you want for your family member.”
Angel’s Paws offers cremations with dignity and respect. With our private cremation service, our goal is to return your pet’s cremains to you as soon as possible, usually within two to three business days. Cremations are done in our facility in Blue Ash.
General pet cremation is a service that is easily attainable through your vet’s office, however, this is a service that is often misunderstood. There are several types of cremation options and pet parents who understand the difference are able to make sure they are purchasing what they really had planned for their pet.
An individual cremation is when the pet is placed in the crematory with other pets, but partitioned off in such a way that the pet owner is able to get their own pet’s ashes back. (We do not perform this type of cremation at Angel’s Paws.)
A private cremation, however, is when the pet is placed in the crematory alone and the pet owner is assured of getting their own pet’s ashes back.
A witness of a private cremation is when the pet is placed in the crematory alone and the pet’s family is able to be present, if they so choose. *Additional fee of $200 will apply.
A communal cremation is when your pet is cremated with other pets and you do not receive your pet’s ashes back.
If you choose to have your vet perform the euthanasia of your pet or your pet passes on their own at home, you may still use our cremation services. Please let your vet know that we will come promptly when they notify us, as we prefer, like you, that your pet not go in the freezer. In this way, we partner with your vet to provide for the complete dignity and respect of your pet.
