My little sassy girl Cutie passed away recently and I think of her often. Cutie taught me a lot! I wanted to give her a proper send off to heaven and I wanted my Cutie to know she will always be remembered and thought of not just by her mommy but to the world as a precious little soul that inhabited this earth. Ariel was God sent to me. The way Ariel memorialized my little sassy girl Cutie was more than I could ever imagined! Ariel engraved all four of her paw prints in a heart shaped terracotta stone along with her tail which gave it that extra special unique touch. The ability to feel her feet and hands by tracing my fingers along each anatomical groove brings a smile to my face. Cutie would often times take her front paw and wrap it around my finger and now I can replicate that feeling over and over thanks to you Ariel. Ariel inked my Cutie's paws, nose and whiskers too! When I saw the prints it brought me back to when I use to touch her nose and she would look at me and I could just feel her smiling at me with her eyes. Ariel made me a special ink design with Cutie's tail curved forming a half heart with her back paw in the middle. I don't have tattoos but if I were to ever get one this would be perfect! Ariel created so many personal touches for Cutie's send off to heaven that she had me crying tears of joy. I'm confident in saying my little sassy girl Cutie knew she was so loved not only here on earth but in heaven. Cutie is looking down from heaven and is saying thank you Mommy for being there for me-I love you! and I love you too!! Thank you Ariel for your artistic abilities and most importantly for the compassion you have for animals. I'm so grateful for what you've done and I value you! -Marisol V. read more

Two weeks ago we tragically lost our beloved bunny, the youngest between our furry babies.

From the moment I walked into the room, Ariel felt like an angel. Her presence, her calm energy, and her kindness were exactly what we needed in one of the hardest moments of our lives. Leaving our beloved pup, Poncho, was incredibly difficult, but Ariel made the experience feel peaceful, respectful, and truly special. From our very first phone call, she was comforting, compassionate, and patient. When we arrived to drop Poncho off, she created a space that felt safe and full of care, allowing us to say goodbye knowing he was in the best hands possible. When we later picked Poncho up, it was a warm, loving moment that we will never forget. Ariel had also sent us a heartfelt card with a loving holiday note remembering Poncho, which meant more to us than words can express. That personal touch showed just how deeply she cares and how much love she puts into what she does. Ariel turned an unbearably painful experience into one filled with grace, love, and gratitude. We are incredibly thankful for the way she honored our boy. We cannot recommend Pet Cremation Services and Ariel highly enough. If you are ever faced with this heartbreaking decision, this is truly the perfect place to leave your beloved pet. read more

Our beloved Kitty passed away in the early morning hours. We didn't know who to call or what to do, but we did know was that she would be cremated and her ashes would be brought home. She was our first fur baby, so we've never experienced a loss like this. I quickly did a google search and found Pet Cremation Services, the reviews all had positive words. And I couldn't agree more with the others. I called them early, maybe 6:30-7 in the morning. Ariel was so kind from the moment she answered. Gave us words of encouragement and condolences. She offered pick up service but we opted to drive Kitty to the facility. When we arrived, Ariel greeted us with a warm heart and care. She explained everything to us, different options, cost, time frame. A heartbreaking moment was made just that much easier when meeting with Ariel. We knew kitty was in loving hands.

I'm so thankful I found Pet Cremation Services of LA and Ariel. After reading through their reviews (there are also more amazing reviews on Google), I decided to call even though it was very late at night. In the past, my family has always gone through a vet for cremation, but this experience felt completely different. What is usually a very heavy and overwhelming process was handled with so much care, warmth, and humanity. Ariel was able to transform what can often feel like just a transaction into a very personal, heartwarming, and meaningful experience. When my baby Snoopy unexpectedly passed at home around midnight, we were lost and didn't know what to do. I just knew I didn't want to wait until morning. I called Ariel multiple times with questions, and every single time she answered with so much patience and understanding. That alone meant everything in such a stressful moment. Snoopy was a big, gentle baby (101 pounds of pure kindness), and everyone who met him instantly felt his love. She was fully prepared with a gurney and handled him so gently, with so much respect treating him with the same love and dignity as if he were her own. You can tell she truly cares about what she does and the families she helps. There is something very calming about her presence. She truly felt like an earth angel, helping guide my sweet boy through his transition. She brought a sense of peace into our home during such a painful moment and even lit a candle for Snoopy, which was such a beautiful and thoughtful gesture. Before she left, we all walked Snoopy out together and said our final goodbyes to his physical body. It was incredibly emotional, but she created a space that felt safe, loving, and respectful. One small moment that stayed with me, she had a dog sticker on the back of her van that looked almost identical to my other baby, Willow. It felt like a little sign that we were truly in the right hands. She also made clay paw prints and saved a vial of Snoopy's fur for us, which are now memories we will hold onto forever. I will absolutely be recommending her to anyone who has a pet and will be using her services again in the future if ever needed. Thank you, Ariel and the rest of the team, for taking such gentle care of my boy and for bringing comfort to our family when we needed it the most. read more

Arial was a sweet, kind voice on the other end of the line. It was 6 a.m. on a Tuesday morning and our precious Emma passed during the night.

Our precious pup passed away unexpectedly in her sleep on January 24, 2026. We were devastated. We ended up calling a few cremation places and no one answered the phone then we came across Pet Cremation Services and Ariel answered. She was very compassionate and caring. We ended bringing our baby girl to her and she made us feel safe and she showed our baby girl Nya so much respect. She never rushed us, let me continue holding my girl until I was ready to part. She was extremely kind. Our precious pup came back home to us in less than a week. No one expects or wants to be in this situation but Ariel made a hard, emotional situation a little easier. read more

This past Friday our family lost our baby Harley and the lord sent us to this amazing place without knowing the place or their services. From the moment we were welcomed with Harley and our family , they gave us the opportunity tilo grieve his loss while we discussed what the process was like . They offer so many beautiful memoirs of your pet , nose prints , paw clay prints , beautiful necklaces that come with your ashes and they also offer beautiful urns . If you happen to not see what you like they also give you the opportunity to browse the internet for something you do like . Our family did all of the above . They care for the pets lost lives that are lost here . They light 3 candles for your fur babies . The night/ day you take them in , the day they are to be cremated and the day they are taken home. Most places make you feel as if it's just a transitional interaction , but not once did we feel that way . They care so much for the life lost and the families that grieve . I pray that all fur babies live for as long as they can but when their time on earth has come, I highly suggest you bring them to pet cremation services . They make the grieving process less painful in allowing you to know that they are in good hands . Thank you so much for attending to Harley the way that you guys did. His life won't only continue to live through the memories we hold with him in our hearts but through the things we can see and touch read more

My cat and best friend of 16 years unfortunately passed away Thanksgiving night - while it was a tough night for him and I, Ariel answered her phone right away and was the sweetest and most caring person I could've asked for to help me through this process. She was at my house within an hour, gently walked me through the process and gave me my time with my cat before taking him. Her prices were very reasonable, I received Greys ashes within several days, along with clay paw prints, a beautiful box and a very thoughtful note all beautifully packaged in a nice bag. She was so kind and responsive from start to finish. I could not have asked for a better person and company to have handled this for me and I highly recommend Ariel and Pet Cremation Services to anyone that may unfortunately be in the same position that I was. Thank you so much for handling Grey with grace and guiding me through the process. read more

Ariel at Pet cremation services is truly an angel. My 17 year old dog Hamm passed away unexpectedly in the middle of the night. I was so incredibly distraught that I couldn't imagine taking him away. She answered the phone and came before the sun came up to take him. And she was so sweet and gentle. I completely trusted her with my baby. And to top it off she brought him to me when I wasn't at home. She made sure she delivered him straight to me and patiently waited for me to get there. When I opened my package she made such beautiful prints of his nose and paws. I could tell she spent a lot of time making these for me. I carry his vial of fur with me. It truly means so much. Hamm was my protector and my first baby. He spent more than half of my life with me and everything I experienced he was right there with me. I'm still so broken over him being gone which is why it's taken me so long to write this. But I just wanted to point out how special these services are and I wish more people knew about this company. Truly thank you so much. read more
