We Help Families Honor Their Beloved Pets

Over the years, your pet has become an important member of your family, with their unique personality and unconditional love. When facing the loss of a pet, a family typically experiences the same sense of loss as it would for the "human" members of the family.

At Athens Pet Cremation, we treat pets just like any other family member. We are here to provide your beloved pet the respect and dignity they deserve in their final farewell. Athens Pet Cremation In Partnership with Lord & Stephens is here to care for your entire family during this difficult time. 

We offer the following services: 

Private Cremation:  The cost of cremation is based on the weight of your pet and the pricing includes an ink stamped paw print*, clipping of fur/feather/scale*, return of cremains in a basic container, and a Certificate of Private Cremation. We can help you to honor the memory of your beloved pet by selecting an urn, keepsake, or pendant/keychain. Many of our items can be personalized with a name and/or date. Cremated remains are ready to be returned within 72 hours from the time we bring your pet into our care, Monday through Friday. Cremains can be shipped via USPS Priority Mail Express for an additional fee of $45.00 within the state of Georgia or for an additional fee of $75.00 outside of the sate of Georgia. Cremains can also be delivered for an additional fee of $35.00 within 20 miles of our location. Each additional mile is $2.00 per mile.   

*Ink stamped paw print and clipping of fur/feather/scale are not included when a pet has a     necropsy. An impression paw print is also not able to be included.
