Frequently Asked Questions

What is pet cremation? 

Pet cremation is a clean, sanitary way of disposing of and saving your pet's remains.  Pet cremation is environmentally sound, providing an alternative to disposal in landfill sites. Your pet is in professional, capable care with High Desert Pet Cremation. Our experienced staff, and dedicated facility make us a premier choice for pet owners.   

Will you work with my Veterinarian? 

We would be pleased to assist your veterinarian with your pets after-care. Some veterinarians work with us exclusively, and many would be happy to accommodate you with your wishes to use our services. We are available to work with any veterinarian or directly with the pet owner if desired.   

How much does pet cremation cost? 

The cost of pet cremation is determined by the size of the pet, and the options that are chosen at the time of cremation. These options can range from a simple communal cremation without the return of cremated remains, to a full private cremation. For specific pricing, please contact us in so we may provide you with all options and details.

How do I know I'm getting my pet back? 

From the moment your pet is picked up, it is paired with a uniquely numbered identification tag that remains with the pet throughout the entire cremation process. With a private cremation, we offer an option to view the begining of the cremation if you choose at an additional charge.  We want you to feel comfortable leaving your pet in our care. Your pet will always be treated with compassion and respect from our staff.

What if my pet dies at home? 

We are often available for transportation of your pet from your home for a additional charge, or you may bring your pet to us yourself, after notifying our office. We are conveniently located in Prescott Valley, and available by phone at 928-759-0645.

How do I receive my pets cremated remains after the process is complete? 

All cremated remains are returned to their owner in either an urn that you have selected, or our basic urn. The urn is placed in our presentation bag, and all private and individual cremations include a personalized and detailed certificate of cremation.
