Fequently Asked Q&A

  • Deciding on the best aftercare for your pet is a deeply personal process. We encourage you to talk with your family and consider a few key factors.

    First, if you're thinking about burial, it's crucial to confirm that it's legal in your area. Backyard burials can present health risks to the local water table, so be sure to check your city's laws.

     

    If cremation is a better fit, we want you to know about aquamation. It's a gentle, more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cremation. Unlike fire-based methods, aquamation doesn't produce harmful greenhouse gasses. An added benefit is that it returns a greater amount of your pet's ashes, which can be meaningful for families.

  • The cost of our water cremation services at Nevada Pet Aquamation is determined by your pet's weight. We offer two main options to choose from:
     

    1. Our Private Cremation service, starting at $155, provides individual cremation for your beloved pet, with their ashes returned to you.
       

    2. For those who do not wish to receive the ashes back, our Communal Cremation service starts at $125. With this option, your pet is cremated with others, and their ashes are respectfully scattered at sea by our partners at Oceans of Love.

  • Deceased Pet Drop Offs are by appointment only. Please call our office to schedule.

  • You can pick them up at Nevada Pet Hospice Comfort Center - 3065 N Rancho Dr Suite 170 Las Vegas NV 89130.

  • Aquamation is a gentle, water-based alternative to traditional cremation. It uses water, warmth, and natural alkaline minerals to respectfully return your pet’s body to its basic elements.

    At the end of the process, the remaining bone minerals are carefully dried and prepared into soft, powder-like remains that can be returned to your family in an urn or keepsake.

    Many families choose aquamation because it does not use flame and is considered a peaceful, environmentally conscious way to care for a beloved pet after their passing.

  • Yes. This service is through our sister company, Nevada Pet Hospice. See the website here >
