    She gave me this card.
    Michael R.

    If you do not mind delivering your pet to them between 9 am and 5 pm, they are very helpful and kind. I thought maybe their "$75 and up" was a loss leader for a gerbil or something and they would quote me a high price, but no, my dog weighed 40 pounds and the price was $100, which is fair. $130 got the ashes returned to me in a complimentary urn (tin can). Better urns were $20 and up, all quite reasonable. They were very reasonable. I would do this any day over paying inflated vet prices.

    They used to put remains in a box, now it's just a poop bag, disgraceful

    Find another place, these new owners do not care. Beloved pet of 17 years died last week, dropped him off next day, took them a whole week to get his ashes back, and had to keep calling to ask when would be ready. Just picked his remains up, and all they did was put them in a bag. Such an unsympathetic place to go. The last owners were awesome, but now, would never come here again. The last 3 pets we brought here were done correctly with original owners, but now all you get is ashes in a pooper scooper bag, sad sad sad.

    Box with engraved name

    My sisters dog of 12+ years died and they came to pick him up. A woman named Claudia helped us. She was nice and gave us all the information. I was a little nervous because they take your payment information over the phone before picking him up, but they email a receipt. (All the good reviews made me feel safe about giving my card info.) Four days later I called and he was ready for pick up. (They won't call you to tell you, they assure your pet will be ready in 4 days). There was just a slight misunderstanding with what urn we wanted and we got a different one. But when I went to pick him up I spoke to Joann and she was so nice, she called Claudia and they apologized a million times. They offered to change the urn and just wanted us to be happy. My sister decided to keep the little box they gave him in because it had his name very nicely engraved at the top and she said she liked it. Claudia text me to apologize once again and wanted to make sure we were happy so that was nice of her. Joann was such a sweetheart. Very compassionate and caring. She makes little gifts for you as a memory of your pet. They were genuinely interested in giving us the best service they could and therefore I believe they deserve the 5 stars despite the misunderstanding. We also got his paw imprinted separately. My sister cried when she saw everything. Thank you again. I hope we don't have to come here any time soon but if we ever need this service for another pet we will return.

    See all

    There was never any pressure to "upgrade," and Joann was happy to ensure our cat will be in a matching box.

    Amazing experience from start to finish, for such a sad occasion. The front desk guy, (so sorry,…read moredidn't catch his name) was extremely kind & understanding. He answered all of my questions and made me feel really comfortable. Also I was so touched when I dropped off my baby and he told me to drive safe when leavinf. 1000/10 recommend! These people truly care!!!

    Well this is a heart wrenching review to write, but a very necessary one none the less…read more For most of us losing a longtime companion is a devastating and paralyzing event. Whether it is due to old age, a long battle with disease or as in my case, a devastatingly fast one brought on by terminal gastrointestinal lymphoma. The owners and staff at Pet Meadows keep you informed every step of the way in the care of your baby's mortal remains. You can contact them with any questions either by email (if, like me you just can't bring yourself to even speak the words) or by phone. And they will take all the time you need and answer any questions you have with such patience and respect that I can't even put into enough words how grateful I am for this. I did have to call them regarding my baby girls arrangements, as I had already purchased a custom urn for her. And Susan was so sweet and was so helpful and patient. And even pulled up the information on my baby boy who I lost last year so we could reference size. Their Urns are excellent quality and there are many styles to choose from. Whether you want a simple glass urn, or an ornate cherry wood urn. They will accommodate you. Lastly, the one thing most people are concerned about... "Am I REALLY getting MY baby's ashes?" That answer is a big ole YES! They will even let you be there during the cremation if you wish (I was a vet tech for over 20 years but that was a big NOPE!) Their turn around time is not fast. On average it's right at about a week depending on their case load. So if a crematorium says 1-2 days.... be suspicious. I would absolutely recommend Pet Meadows.

    Losing my dog of 16 1/2 years was one of the hardest things I've ever gone through. He wasn't just…read morea pet--he was family, my best friend, and my constant companion. He went everywhere with me. He passed away on a Sunday afternoon, and when I called Angel Oaks Pet Crematory, I was honestly surprised someone answered. I could barely speak through the tears, but from the very first moment, they were incredibly kind, patient, and compassionate. They immediately put me at ease during one of the most difficult moments of my life. When my wife and I brought him in, the level of respect, care, and understanding they showed was truly remarkable. You can tell they genuinely care. I was told the urn I selected might take 7-10 days, which I completely understood--but just two days later, they called to say everything was ready. The urn itself is absolutely beautiful. I can't say enough good things about Angel Oaks. If you've lost a beloved pet, I highly recommend them. They treated my dog--and us--with the dignity and compassion we needed. I'm truly grateful.

    I cannot recommend this business based on my experience…read more I want to begin by acknowledging that the owner was professional and respectful throughout this situation. Unfortunately, my overall experience was negatively impacted by the handling of my case by the front desk staff. After my dog passed away, I was told I needed to complete a JotForm before the cremation process could begin. I informed the receptionist multiple times that I had never received the form and asked for it to be resent. During my first call, I was placed on hold for approximately 16 minutes and was assured it would be sent. By the following day, I still had not received it, so I called again. Rather than addressing the issue, the receptionist was dismissive, repeatedly interrupted me, and was unwilling to listen as I tried to explain that I had never received the form. After more than a week with no updates or communication regarding my dog's remains, I was informed that the cremation would no longer be performed and that I would need to retrieve my dog's body instead. As a grieving pet owner, I found this deeply distressing. After my dog's body had been in their care for over a week, I was faced with the possibility of having to identify and transport her remains myself. This is an experience no family should have to endure, particularly when the delay resulted from a communication breakdown outside of their control. Compassion, clear communication, and professionalism are especially important when families are coping with the loss of a beloved pet. While I appreciate the owner's professionalism, the lack of communication and the way this situation was handled by the front desk left me disappointed and added unnecessary emotional distress during an already difficult time.

    I'm not one to leave negative reviews often but after everything my husband and I have gone through…read morein the past week after coming to this clinic.. I would NEVER recommend to anyone I know. Back on August 17th, my husband and I brought our 2 month old PUPPY, Hazel, we just came home with on the 15th to Greatwood Veterinary Hospital for literally just vaccine boosters. While we were there I mentioned her urine was a little strong smelling but that we recently lost our 14.5 year old dog in April to kidney disease so I don't know what normal puppy urine smells like but just wanted them to confirm her urine was okay. We only had her for 2 days- I had no idea what was normal or not lol. Long story short- they ran a urinalysis and saw she had a UTI and put her on meds. The vet also mentioned she had a little glucose in her urine but wasn't concerned at all about it bc it was so mild and likely caused by excitement or infection. I was concerned though since we just lost a dog to kidney failure and I needed reassurance so we took her in 2 days later for a full blood work up, met with a DIFFERENT dr at this visit who said she was perfectly healthy and her bloodwork was fantastic and her glucose in her urine was nothing to worry about bc it was likely from excitement. Fast forward to Monday the 24th where we had our follow up appt to check if her urinalysis was clear of the UTI. My husband brought her in and I was on speaker... to see a DIFFERENT dr again. I was told this was Dr. Lindsey. I was not told her first name. So now 3 visits with 3 doctors. Whatever, anyways.. she ran her urinalysis and immediately came in saying her glucose had increased and she recommends a full bloodwork panel.... which we just got 5 days prior. She told my husband "no I have notes you guys denied bloodwork" and essentially accused us of taking her elsewhere to get her bloodwork done. We obviously didn't. She finally went to CHECK HER RECORDS and came back and said ok yeah her bloodwork looks good and my bad her glucose in her urine hasn't increased it was a "computer glitch" that stated we got another UA done a day we weren't even there - but then starts telling us how she thinks our perfectly happy and healthy puppy has congenital kidney dysfunction. When asked what we do from here we were quite literally told to REMOVE A KIDNEY (for what, idk?) and have her live the rest of her life with one kidney doing all the work. When asked what this meant she told me the very few dogs she's seen with this lived a very short life and died from early kidney failure. Anyone who's ever seen a dog pass from kidney disease/failure knows how traumatizing it is. I was absolutely devastated hearing this. She also told us they couldn't send her urine sample to the lab to be confirmed because it wasn't sterile because she peed on the floor, which is where the sample was gathered from. Absolutely CRAZY to me. I immediately got on the phone with our old vet (who we only didn't go back to bc she moved and Greatwood is so close to us) - we got in same day to see her and even she said how the vet handled this was insane because our puppy is perfectly healthy and you absolutely cannot diagnose kidney dysfunction off the information she had - especially based off levels on a urine sample gathered FROM THE FLOOR. Even a simple SDMA test (which was never offered to us at greatwood) showed a perfect value. Ultimately, we've wasted hundreds of dollars at this vet just to get her urine sample yesterday COLLECTED IN A STERILE MANNER via cytocentesis, sent to an actual LAB, and confirmed there is absolutely no glucose, non hyaline casts, crystals, or anything else except mild RBC and WBC in her urine (all of which was reported on the in house urinalysis done at greatwood). How much money we've wasted at greatwood vet aside, the fact this vet (Dr. Lindsey specifically) throws around such devastating and severe diagnostics without any evidence or even a sterile test is insane. We will never be going back here again, which is so sad because we loved all of the staff and the first 2 doctors our sweet Hazel girl saw... it's so unfortunate one unprofessional vet who lacks any compassion whatsoever could ruin what could have been a longstanding relationship.
