I have no words to express my gratitude. From the moment I made that difficult call and spoke with sweet Sherry (sp?) who was so very helpful, then my comforting talk with Dr. Shea, who was so wonderful and understanding, and above all completely honest with my Stella's overall condition, I couldn't have made this choice without her, I was completely lost and inconsolable. Dr. Shea was my guide in my time of need. When the final day came, Dr. Erica came to our home. She is this beautiful angel, with the most kind and gentle voice. She helped us walk our precious Stella over the Rainbow bridge in the beauty of silence, reverence, and peace, it was so beautiful. Dr. Erica sent us the most amazing sympathy card a few days later that touched my heart deeply. Honor Pet has not only been there throughout this difficult journey, but their kindness, compassion, professionalism and guidance have meant more to me and my family than they can ever know. Today, Stella is back home at her final resting place, where she belongs...they sent her home to us in this incredible Honor box which carried her remains, a mini glass bottle of her fur, a candle to burn if/when I need to feel her presence, a digital print of her beautiful little "chocolate chip nose" we all loved and adored, a package of Forget-Me-Not seeds to plant in her honor, and a letter conveying their deepest sympathy for our great loss. It was all so overwhelming and thoughtful. If anyone is faced with such a difficult decision as this, and you are like me, confused and doubting whether you're making the right end-of-life choice, I cannot recommend Honor Pet enough. I promise, you will be blessed and given the truth and confidence as to when that right time comes. Stella never suffered, because Dr. Shea went over her symptoms/behavior, but when she started showing signs that she was ready, I recognized them and knew. My Stella no longer is suffering... The devastation over losing a beloved pet cannot be fully described in words, other than this: "Grief is the Price we Pay to Love." I love you my sweet girl, wait for me. read more

Honor Pet - nose print, I wasn't expecting that. Ashes, keepsake paw print and Locke of hair. - Pet Cremation Services Near Me - Los Angeles, California

It's hard to put into words the amount of gratitude we have for Dr. Scott and the integrity and care of Honor Pet. We had been given a few recommendations for in home end of life services, but everyone we connected with didn't quite fit. We stumbled upon Honor Pet, and feel IMMENSELY lucky to have done so. Our dog Guy was 18.5 years old and started to transition naturally. My husband and I decided on a Saturday to have someone come on the next day (Sunday) to come help our boy go, if he hadn't done so on his own. Dr. Scott was the most warm, patient, loving, respectful, honoring person we could ever imagine. From the moment he walked in, his energy matched both the pain AND the holy reverence for this beautiful transition of our soulfriend, Guy.My husband and I are fairly ritualistic, so we set up an outdoor space for Guy surrounded with flowers and pictures and incense, and played him a song on repeat to help carry him out. Dr. Scott felt like he was a gentle part of that ceremony. He blended in with so much love.He slowed US down. He handled Guy with so much care, both in the injections (which he hid the needle doing- so classy), and in moving Guy's body. Honor Care is... exceptional. The water cremation made me feel 1000x better about cremation as someone who would've preferred to bury our boy if we didn't rent. We went with individual cremation, but I am touched how the owner of Honor Pet scatters the remains of those family members who were communally cremated back to the land once a week in reverence.The communication is exceptional.The care is next level (free grief services... I mean... that's everything).I have told everyone that this is for sure who they should have when that heartbreaking time comes.Thank you- truly- from the bottom of our hearts.

My visit to Honor Pet was a sad one, but their team was very comforting during this time. While I was only there to pick up my keepsake, they offered me a beverage and even a private room to have some time to myself to grieve and/or celebrate life. The space was calming & inviting. I ordered my keepsakes online, which was a very easy process. Honor Pet also offers free support groups, which is such a thoughtful option for us fur-parents going through tough times. read more

It's such a heartbreaking tender time when we have to say goodbye to our fur babies. Lexi was so much more than a kitty to me. I truly appreciated the sensitivity from the Honor Pet Team and how simple and easy they made the process. The wooden box with the brass silhouette of a cat on top was more beautiful in person than on the website and the perfect size. The box and all the little extras that they put in there were very much appreciated and very kind. I would definitely recommend them when the time comes for your fur baby. read more

Honor Pet was presented to us via Access Animal Hospital at a time where everything was raw, uncertain but knowing we only wanted the best for our girl, Daisy. From the time she was placed into their care, they were stellar. We received an email to make a selection within a day, though I has not ready to face, but with the kindly worded compassionate email I was able to. We also received update emails along the way until it was time to bring her home. When we went to Honor Pet to bring her home we were pleasantly surprised to see how comforting the space was, and the staff was so kind and compassionate. Giving us the option of taking our time, and if we wanted to go into a separate room to receive her, should we want. When we received our girl, she was presented in a beautiful and compassionate box. It was more than I expected in a very comforting way. Her memorial item wrapped in beautiful tissue respectfully placed in the box with care, and a beeswax candle in a pouch worded "light a candle think of me in your heart I'll always be" which made me cry. It was such a touching gesture. I feel they really understood how truly hard it is to lose your family member and what a difficult time it is. I have so much comfort in knowing I have our girl's remains not mixed with another's. I didn't know what to expect; Daisy was my first dog, but I can't say enough how much having had Honor Pet, looking back on it all, made such a hard time more comforting and helped ease, even if a bit, into a transition I didn't expect to happen so quickly. I feel very blessed to have found them. read more

It took me a while to write this, but I couldn't thank Honor Pet more for helping me through the toughest decision I have ever had to make. Dr. Scott is truly a godsend. I couldn't recommend Honor Pet more for how courteous, gentle, and timely they were through the entire process. I couldn't thank them more if I could. I highly suggest Honor Pet if you want an understanding team to help you through the difficult decision of saying goodbye to your beloved dog or cat. They are quite frankly the best price point to meet your needs, and they offer free counseling after to talk to others that are going through something similar. read more

Choosing to put our dog down was a very difficult decision. Our 11 year old daughter wanted to be present for the appointment to say good bye. Honor Pet and Dr Scott Cox was incredibly empathetic and patient. He answered all her questions and was so warm and compassionate. We are so grateful we could do this in our home rather than at the Vet. read more

Honor Pet was incredible; so compassionate and caring and made the difficult decision I had to make for my sweet cat Zeus much less heartbreaking. They allowed me to spend time with Zeus in a very soothing and comfortable room with candles and very light music before Dr Scott and a vet entered the room and spent time speaking with me and answering questions I had. So grateful that this turned out to actually be a beautiful spiritual experience instead of a negative or doubtful one. read more

Honor Pet - Zeus - Pet Cremation Services Near Me - Los Angeles, California

In such a tough situation, everyone at Honor Pet made everything go as positively as it possibly could. They stayed open incredibly late for us and they were so welcoming and caring. The bouquet-making and note-writing/painting stations were such a wonderful process as well, and even though we brought quite a bit of items to accompany our dog through the aquamation process, the added bouquet and painting were so nice to include as well. Everything from their end was handled with such care and respect from the intake/billing to the actual cozy cart that took our dog to the back room. The employees could not have been better. And the box that awaited us just a few days later was beautiful, full of an assortment of heartwarming items along with our dog's remains. If you're unfortunately in the situation we found ourselves in with our dog, go with Honor Pet. read more

Honor Pet - On his favorite chair surrounded by his favorite toys - Pet Cremation Services Near Me - Los Angeles, California

It's never easy. And it's an expense. But if you're in a position to address a pet's aftercare, I can recommend Honor Pet. Today we picked up the remains of a beloved cat who lived a happy 19 years, and we really appreciate the sweet touches Honor Pet included in their service. Besides her ashes and certificate of cremation, we have a clipping of our sweetheart's fur in a tiny bottle, along with a candle, a packet of forget-me-nots to plant in her honor, and something I never thought would be wonderful to have, but is--an imprint of her nose on card stock paper. I'd never heard of water cremation (alkaline hydrolysis) until now. The use of water in the cremation process sounds counterintuitive, and so perhaps is the thinking that it's more ecologically responsible. But the research I'm doing on that seems to verify that this is the case. Californians are rightly concerned about water conservation, so not everyone will agree that this is really the way to go en masse here, but in weighing the factors, I felt good about it. The cost compares to standard flame cremation, and in fact, I found out that my cost with Honor Pet was less than a friend recently paid for a deceased pet's standard cremation. The remains can be shipped to you or you can retrieve them at the DTLA facility. Shipping cremated remains mandates certain regulatory fees, and we opted for pick-up. We were greeted by a very welcoming employee in a lovely waiting room. And our wait there was minimal. Be mindful of parking if you go to the facility. Yeah, it's not easy. But sweetness helps. We're glad we did this. read more

I had to say goodbye to my sweet boy earlier this month and it was very heartbreaking. We had taken him to the emergency room and he went to sleep. I decided that I was going to have his ashes given back to me and the emergency room sent him to Honor Pet. Within 24 hours of receiving him, I received an email giving me options as to what I wanted for his last few memories. Two weeks later, I received his ashes, and was surprised to find that they had gotten his nose printed. It made me cry so very much. I'm so grateful to them for doing that. Henry was also given a tree in Madagascar, and a candle was given to me. I especially appreciated being given a brochure for grief support. They confirmed water cremation and it made me feel comfortable knowing someone was here with him, and that he was treated gently. I'm glad to have my baby boy back home to me. My favorite part was that they were able to get some of his hair for me and put it in a bottle. My kitty had the most beautiful hair. Thank you. read more

I can't recommend Honor Pet enough. We used their at-home euthanasia services for my dog, Dre, and the care we received was truly exceptional. The staff was compassionate and supportive, and Dr. Scott was incredibly kind and gentle throughout the entire process. The experience was peaceful and never rushed, and my sweet boy was able to pass quietly in his own bed. I'm so grateful I chose Honor Pet during such a difficult time and will always appreciate the dignity and care they showed Dre and our family. read more

The teams from Home Pet Euthenasia and from Honor Pet Cremation made a painful process go so smoothly and without any unclear or anxiety-producing anticipation for how every step would go from beginning to end, thanks to the caring and comprehensive communication from everyone involved. From the first call to schedule an appointment (I emailed and they reached out almost immediately), to the arrival of the vet and his time with us that ended with his departure with my little one tucked in under a blanket in a small basket, to the pickup of my pup's ashes, I was met with empathy and care and respect for the pup. It made letting go so much less horrid than it could have been. And the mementos packed with the beautiful box containing pup's ashes are thoughtful and so cherished. read more

If I could give 10 stars to Honor Pet, I would. We had to make the devastating decision to send our beloved Mishka across the Rainbow Bridge. The most heartbreaking thing pet parents have to do was made easier and just bearable through the assistance of Honor Pet and especially Dr. Scott. I researched in-home euthanasia extensively because we wanted to avoid going into our vet's office and having our hearts broken in a sterile, clinical environment. We wanted to avoid any stress or fear for Mishka who hated car rides and always stressed out over vet visits. After reading about Honor Pet and seeing all the 5-star reviews, I decided that they were the ones to help us through this ordeal. In comparison to others offering similar services, Honor Pet was anything but corporate. Every communication was very personal, compassionate, and caring. No upsell, no pushiness, we were never rushed. Dr. Scott came to our home and gently and peacefully assisted Mishka into eternal sleep. I could not ask for a better ending to our 16 years together. I hope I have a similar option when it is my time to leave the planet. Dr. Scott is the kindest, most patient, compassionate man. His vibe is calm and even our skittish cat went right up to him for attention as well as our other senior (and usually grumpy) dog. That alone says something about Dr. Scott. Afterwards, we took Mishka to the Honor Pet facility in the Arts District of Downtown L.A. (our choice to do so.) Lovely facility, found street parking right across the street, and Roxanne had been alerted to our arrival so prepared one of the peaceful rooms for us to say our final goodbyes. (Thank you, Roxanne!) I know this is a long review but it is 100% deserved. If you need to send your beloved pet across the Rainbow Bridge, please consider Honor Pet (in-home or at their location.) You will not regret it. We will be forever thankful to everyone at Honor Pet for getting us through this. read more

I feel so blessed to have found Honor Pet during one of the most difficult days of my life. I was planning to do in-home services, but when the time came i was wary of having those difficult memories lingering in my home but really disliked the idea of taking my sweet angel to a stale linoleum and stainless steel vet office. I wanted to send my guy off in comfort and safety and Honor Pet nailed the brief. Dr. Scott was unbelievably kind and compassionate. He explained everything in great detail and let me hold my guy as we sent him to the Rainbow Bridge. From the cozy room to the lit candles to the flowers, I feel enormously grateful to have found Honor Pet right when i needed it. read more

I am beyond grateful that we found Honor Pet for our beloved Lola May. I always thought that when the time came, we would go through our longtime, trusted veterinarian. But Lola began declining during the holidays, and when I searched for services, it truly felt like the universe led us to Honor Pet. From the very first interaction, everything about their care felt intentional, compassionate, and deeply respectful. Their customer service was exceptional, empathetic, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful. Every detail was centered on comfort, dignity, and honoring Lola's life. With the cremation service, we were given a full hour in a private, peaceful room to say goodbye. We were even able to bring our other dog, Lola's daughter, which meant the world to us. The space was warm and comforting, and Honor Pet provided meaningful ways to honor her, writing cards, creating a bouquet, and even sharing a quiet toast to her life. It allowed us to grieve privately and intentionally, without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Even though we lost Lola over New Year's, Honor Pet remained communicative and compassionate throughout the holiday period. We never felt forgotten or uncertain. Instead, we felt supported, prepared, and cared for during an incredibly difficult time. When Lola was returned to us, the presentation was so thoughtfully done that it brought us comfort through tears. The beautiful box included a certificate, her nose print, a piece of her fur, a candle, flower seeds, and a planted tree in her honor. Every element felt meaningful and lovingly curated. It was clear that this wasn't just a service, it was a tribute. I also want to share how impressed we were with the value. Given everything that was included, we truly expected the cost to be much higher, especially compared to traditional veterinary options. The pricing was more than reasonable, and the care we received far exceeded our expectations. It felt like a genuine kindness, not a transaction. We have already been recommending Honor Pet to everyone we know and will continue to do so. They helped us say goodbye to Lola May in the most beautiful way possible, and we will always keep them in our hearts. We are so deeply grateful. read more

There was so much ease in the process in putting my pet to rest. The in home vet handled her with loving care and showed genuine compassion while we said our goodbyes. We felt comfort taking the water cremation method that Honor Pet offers. We opted for the ashes to be returned with the Honor box package as it's the last expense we would have for our furry family member. When the time comes again, Honor Pet is the place we would choose. read more

Our sweet stray suddenly passed away and they were so accommodating to us. We were able to bring him in the same day. They gave us a private room to say our final goodbyes and it was full of supplies to make trinkets to take with us. They gave all the time we needed. They were so incredibly kind in such a difficult time We received our boy about a week later. We were also given an option to purchase a box for him. It was beautifully packaged and full of other trinkets to remember him by. It was a difficult experience made easier by incredible kind people. We used a different company for my other fur baby but this experience was so much better and so beautiful! I would recommend! read more

I could not express enough how amazing this place and the people there are. Before even going they were constantly responding to me and showing compassion through the entire thing. Before, During and After they're so wonderful through it all and i could not have gotten through this as good without the care and love they offer to you and your baby. They make something so hard so much easier and I'm forever grateful to Dr Shea. She was one of the truest and kind hearted souls I've ever met. I could go on about all the things she did for him as if he was her own. Honorpet lives up to their name and accomplishes that plus above and beyond. In a perfect world none of us would have to euthanize our furbabies. This isn't a perfect world but honorpet makes it a perfect goodbye. Thank you eternally and i know my sweet baby klaus was happy to make one last friend read more

My cat Cleo passed away on February 28 at a hospital. I paid for his cremation to be done by Honor Pet. Same day I received a text message from them stating that the cremation would take place in 3 days. On March 3rd I contacted them about the status and was told that it would take around 2 weeks before I would be able to pick up the ashes and they would notify me. I never heard from them again. No text, no email, no phone call. On March 26 ( almost a month later)I finally got tired of waiting and decided to call them myself. I was told the ashes were ready to be picked up. On arrival at their facility I found out that the ashes were actually ready on March 9th. My BELOVED CAT's ashes were sitting there for almost 3 weeks and no one contacted me. Of course no responsibility was taken, no apologies were given. They have no integrity. I do not recommend them. read more

The vet (Dr. Scott I think) had a wonderful and caring bedside manner with my kitty, Mangoe. The whole process was peaceful and understanding. The room was quiet and nicely decorated. His ashes and memorabilia were returned in a nice box with thoughtful details like a nose print, a vial of fur, a candle, and wildflower seeds. I would recommend taking your pet here when it's their time to go. It's a much better experience than an animal hospital, and it's not too expensive. (My total for clinic euthanasia and individual aquamation was $624. When I took my dog to be euthanized at an animal hospital, the cost was higher for a much worse experience.) The prices are all clearly stated online, and you can make online appointments. This was the perfect solution for the sad decision to let Mangoe pass at his time. read more

Working with Honor Pet was the absolute best possible experience for the worst possible situation. Our 6 year old cat's health declined very suddenly after FLV flare up and we had to make the most heartbreaking decision to help him pass peacefully. Within a week his health spiraled so drastically that it seemed like we were in some horrible nightmare. It was so sudden and unexpected when we were advised by our primary care vet that providing humane euthanasia was the only choice. I called Honor Pet since we wanted him to be at home in a familiar place and with family as he passed. From start to finish every interaction I had with staff members was professional, emotionally intelligent, caring, and the sense that they would always take the best care of our baby. When Dr. Scott showed up to assess our boy in determining if this was the best path, he thoroughly reviewed our medical documents and test results and performed a physical assessment of our cat. He had a lengthy conversation about possible outcomes and spoke like he was part of the family and making the decisions with us. We ended up taking our kitty for more test results in the event it wasn't a lost cause to search for care. In the end Dr. Scott had to make a second house call, as the situation became dire. We were assured our furry family member had not hit the turning point where he started to suffer greatly and Dr. Scott gently and compassionately helped our cat take his final sleep. In a heartbreaking situation with your furry family Honor Pet would be the team I would choose again. Staff was communicative, clear, and helpful; taking the time to get to know us and our little guy throughout the process. It is also worth noting that I have never written a review but this situation deserves it. I can't thank the Honor Pet Team enough. Thank you all so much. read more
