I cannot praise Steve enough for his kindness and compassion during a tragic time for our family…read more Our sweet boy, Boss, was killed by a car Tuesday night, the week of thanksgiving, we found him around 11 pm on the side of the road. Not knowing what to do in a panic, I googled pet cremation and came across Carolina Pet Cremation. On the website it said 24 hour service was available and you could call or text anytime. I honestly didn't expect an answer this late, the day before a holiday, or to be able to take him anywhere that late but I texted to see and almost immediately he responded. Steve said he'd wait there for us to arrive (we were an hour away), it was after 1 am when we finally arrived. Steve was so patient and kind with us. We said our goodbyes and handed out sweet boy over to him. He had Boss ready by 2 pm on the next day before he left to go out of town. Our Bossie Boy was 10 years old. He may have been small but his place in our heart is huge.

So I called Steve and got him directly. He told me to take Giles to a local vets Carefirst, that he uses for his facility.

I didn't expect all I got, besides the personal care for me, I got what you see in the pictures that have been posted. I would recommend this a thousand times!

I never thought I would be reviewing a pet cremation organization. I am brokenhearted to share that…read moremy pet goats were mauled to death by neighborhood dogs off leash. The goats were larger than a large dog, and we were unable to bury them on our property due to their size. We called our veterinarian, and they recommended Companah. When I called, Sean spoke with me in the gentlest and most compassionate voice. He outlined our options and made an immediate appointment for our goats. We drove down to the location, and we were greeted by the sweetest, most gentle young women. The first thing they said was that they were sorry for my loss. I seem to recall a gentle hug. They brought out carts and carefully loaded the goats. They spoke with me about our options for aftercare for the goats. In a few days, we received a message that our goats were ready to go home. I drove up and picked up the packages. The young woman again was so deeply kind and gentle. I was overwhelmed with the quality and craftsmanship of the memorial pieces I bought to remember my goats. I kept waiting for someone to make fun of me for wanting to preserve the goats in this way, to tell me it was silly or unnecessary. But the entire staff treated me like I had lost a family member, an aunt, a mother, a father. I did lose two family members. The staff at Companah Pet Cremation and Aftercare treated me with dignity and respect. I did not get anyone's names; I was too broken. But thank you to the wonderful staff for taking care of my pets with such care and dignity.

They were so wonderful throughout the process. Someone called first to gently talk me through the process and what to expect. He was very kind with me. I could tell that the company has been in business for a while and they really understand how to work with grieving families. It was almost as if a human family member had passed. The man who dropped off my cat's ashes was also very sweet with me, and he expressed his condolences for my loss. We decided to have a paw print made of our cat, which I thought would be very upsetting, but they did such a nice job with it and it was so sweet that it actually made me feel better. I would highly recommend this company.

Took my dog up there on 27th of August for cherry eye surgery and to get spayed. $1000s of dollars later and multiple vet bills bc my dog got really sick from meds and had to be hooked to IV's. 2 weeks after final eye check up cherry eye is back out. They tell us that they could do surgery again for discounted rate. Something wasn't done right bc no way if it was stitched properly it would last less than a month. They did say it probably will never come back out but could when she gets older and here i am $1000s of dollar spent and have the same looking dog with huge cherry eye after spending money on surgery, diarrhea meds, probiotics, eye creams, cones, changing her foods bc her stomach was so sensitive afterwards... I'm beyond frustrated and the lack of accountability from Clayton Animal Hospital is just astounding. Fix what you didn't do right is all I'm asking... Side note: 2 weeks after surgery we started seeing the white stitching string. The vet said this is normal. Now I don't think it is bc I think the stitching was coming out. Side note: their staff is great and pleasant to deal with and I love all of them and I hope we can come to resolution and I can update later that they did the right thing

The professionalism and courtesy extended by this group far exceeded any expectations. So impressed…read moreand grateful! When our 14-year-old golden retriever, Jack, passed away, I was at a loss for what to do next but I knew I had to act quickly. Jack weighed 85 lbs, and with an infant at home, the idea of managing everything on my own was overwhelming, more like impossible. I initially contacted a more established service in Jacksonville, NC, but they required me to transport Jack to them, within an hour! I am on Emerald Isle and even without an infant this would have been impossible. They gave no other options. So I looked on google and found this amazing group, Dignified Pet Transport, and I am SO GLAD I did. From the very first call, Nick was incredibly reassuring, telling me not to worry about anything. They immediately offered to come pick Jack up, and I felt such a sense of relief. Their service was prompt, professional, and compassionate, exactly what I needed in that moment. Not only was their service top-notch but their prices were also better than the competitors which was another welcome relief. When they returned Jack's ashes, I was blown away by the professionalism and beauty of the presentation. They brought our Jack back in a beautiful, high-quality cedar box with his name on a gold plate, and they included a print of his paw as a keepsake. It was such a thoughtful and touching gesture--truly a beautiful thing. If you're looking for a service that offers everything you need when a pet dies (prompt courteous service, compassion and kindness, flexibility, price and ease of use) you have found the only place you need. Dignified Pet Transport blew me away with how incredible they are at every single step of this difficult process. I'm so thankful I found them in a time of need and I am eternally grateful for how easy they made such a difficult situation.
