Pet Cremation in Adelaide

We have a personal drive to offer compassionate and supportive care to pet owners in their time of need. No matter if sudden or expected, the loss of a pet can be devastating. At Horizon, we are  committed to providing you with a caring and thoughtful service to help you through this difficult time. We aim to make the transition as smooth as possible from home collection of your pet to organising aftercare (cremation) to finally returning the ashes back home. We believe that your pet deserve the same respect and care in the afterlife.

When To Arrange Deceased Pet Pick-Up Service

If your beloved pet has passed away at home, the vets at Horizon are available to assist you with the collection and body care arrangements of your dog or cat. We are not just a transport service, but we are the premier end of life service for your beloved pets offering palliative veterinary care and home euthanasia, supporting you all the way until the very end.

When Paws Become Wings

If your pet passes away at home and you decide to contact us, your call will be answered by either Dr. Kaori and Dr. Ana directly.

We will guide you through scheduling your pet’s collection, as well as memorialisation and cremation options.

 

  • Schedule a time for collection. During this phone call, we will ask to confirm any details about your requests and answer any questions or concerns.

  • Arrive at your home where we can further discuss the aftercare options for cremations or memorabilia.

  • When you are ready, we will gently tuck your pet into a comfortable bed or stretcher with soft blankets for transport to the Edenhills crematorium.

  • We will give you as much time as needed to say your last goodbyes.

  • We will leave you with some brochures for grief support, if needed.

Our Commitment to Compassion

We provide a compassionate service to you and your pets because we understand how difficult this time may be. We believe that the end of life care before and after deserves as much respect and dignity as the beginning.

Every aspect and detail of your pet’s final care and arrangements are important in honoring the life and the love you shared. When it comes to these important final details, we are here to support and assist you in deciding what’s right for you and your beloved pet.

 

We are committed to offering each family a personal and caring experience until the very end.
