    When we lost our beloved dog, Roxy, we were devastated. From the moment we contacted Precious Pet Cremations OC, Oliver treated us with genuine empathy, compassion, and kindness during one of the hardest moments our family has ever experienced. He went above and beyond in every way. His attention to detail, the respect he showed Roxy, and the care he put into every step of the process gave us tremendous comfort. Nothing felt rushed or transactional. It was clear that he truly understands how much our pets mean to us and treats every family as if they were his own. The keepsakes and presentation were beautiful, and everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and dignity. We couldn't have asked for a more compassionate experience. If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Oliver and his team deserve an 11 out of 10. Thank you for helping us honor Roxy's memory with such love and care. We will always be grateful.

    Losing a loved one is never easy & I appreciate the patience, care and thoroughness Oliver provided during this process. I researched many cremation services and ultimately chose Precious Pet Cremations because it offered everything I wanted: a personalized urn, clay and ink print, & fur keepsake. I was able to design the urn and Oliver even added the actual paw prints engraving. Everything was reasonably priced and packaging was top tier. I am so happy with how everything turned out. Oliver truly went above and beyond. Thank you, Oliver for the amazing service!

    5 stars for Oliver's customer service and dedication. My family will never forget the night of December 12th, 2025, when our little Ricky passed away in an accident. We were devastated, but I remained calm and called to many places. Only Oliver called me back, and he arrived that night at 11 pm to take Ricky away. He diligently explained all the services and gave us the best possible price. He committed to completing everything before Christmas, and he did. Today, December 21st, 2025, our Ricky returned home with a lot emotion of my family. I don't know what more to say than to express my deepest gratitude to Oliver. Although he only has one arm, God has given him extraordinary strength and a warm, empathetic heart for our family. May God always grant him good health and continued success in his work. Merry x'mas and happy new year

    I want to say Thank you so much to Oliver. I can't thank you enough.. I had go say goodbye to my 15 years old precious baby Kong in May. It was really late at night but Oliver came to us right away and handled everything for us. He is very kind and respectful. It was very tough to arrange everything but he let me take my time and waited for me... It would have been worth any price but the price was very reasonable. He did my babys urn in Korean customized too. this is very thankful and thoughtful. it came out so beautiful.... Thank you Thank you so much!

    Oliver was very kind and caring. He answered any questions I had and provided more information I didn't know I needed as this was my first time losing a pet. I did a lot of research and honestly I think I got a deal for the service provided. I'm glad I found Oliver and trusted him with my baby boy.

    My family's dog passed late at night, during my search of places to get him cremated, Oliver responded quickly and was very detailed with all the questions I asked. I had a previous bad experience with a different company and he really surpassed our expectations. He was very compassionate and detailed oriented during the entire process. My family and I are very grateful for his professionalism and getting it all done in a timely manner.

    The green bag with all the items placed in, the box the paw print came in, the pawprint, the cedar urn, business card, and flower seeds.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Precious Pet Cremations. From beginning to end, Oliver was incredibly supportive, compassionate, kind, honest, and professional. As this was my first time cremating my beloved fur baby, Angelo, I was completely devastated and unsure of what to expect. Oliver patiently and thoroughly explained every step of the process, which brought me great comfort during such a painful time. When I picked up Angelo today, everything exceeded my expectations. Greeted with all items in a beautiful green bag, the matching sturdy green box holding his paw print, to the stunning cedar urn my Angelo was placed in, every detail was handled with care and thoughtfulness. The addition of flower seeds was a truly touching and meaningful gesture. I am beyond grateful, deeply impressed, and extremely happy with the service provided. I will absolutely be recommending this business to others. Thank you for being such a blessing during one of the most difficult moments of my life.

    From start to finish, our experience with Precious Pet Cremations was as perfect as could be. Oliver is punctual, responds quickly, and most importantly, extremely respectful and compassionate towards our grieving family. This was our 3 kids' first experience losing a family pet, and Oliver made sure to involve them throughout the process in such a beautiful and loving way. We had ample time to say goodbye to our sweet girl, and he was incredibly understanding the entire time. We now have the most gorgeous resting place for Zoe in this cedar wood urn. Thank you, Oliver, from the bottom of our hearts, for taking the best care of our beautiful mama bear.

    Oliver was truly outstanding. He handled everything with such compassion, grace, and professionalism, bringing comfort and ease during a very difficult time. We are so thankful for his kindness and the care he showed every step of the way. We would highly recommend him to anyone in need of these services.

    Price was a little high honestly they have a some packages you can choose but they can work on it to make it a little cheaper so costumer can have more options base on budget !!! to be honest, I find them by Yelp by the way !! I called that day like 4-6 business And it was around 9:30-10:30PM!!! NO one call us back decide them !!!even next days no calls back on our calls and voicemails. Basically they are fake businesses in my opinion!!!! Thank you for your service !!! I hope im not gonna use you anymore but if something happens again, we know where yo call!!!

    We had to say goodbye to our 12 yr old dog unexpectedly. I am so thankful to Oliver, he came late at night to help us in our time of loss. He was so gentle with our Roscoe, and gave us the time we needed to say our goodbyes. The service he provided was very professional and we will hold the special urn and paw prints very close to our hearts

Their customer service was compassionate, professional, and incredibly caring during one of the hardest moments for my family. The day Shadow passed away, they were able to pick him up the very same day. I was surprised because I expected the process to take much longer. They treated him with such dignity and respect during pickup, and they showed that same level of care when they returned his ashes to me. I can't thank them enough for making such a difficult time a little easier. I would absolutely recommend them 100%. Thank you for treating my beloved Shadow with the love and care he deserved.

We received Wynston's ashes today which has been so emotional yet the way in which they cared for Wynston's departed body and returned him back to us in such a caring and compassionate manner, means the world to us.

Not many crematoriums are open on Sundays. I called a number in Van Nuys that I found on Yelp, but the man referred me to Furrever Friends. I'm so glad he did. Heather at Furrever Friends was so kind on the phone and in person. She made the entire process very smooth and easy. She discussed everything with me - their strict cremation process, what to expect with the final package, etc. Honestly, I didn't ask; she just told me. I wasn't functioning very well that day. I picked up Franklin today after only a 4-day wait. At the shop, Heather surprised me with Frank's paw and nose prints on wood and paper! What a thoughtful idea! (I'm sure she told me about it on Sunday, but I really wasn't present.) I almost broke down in front of her when I saw his nose. We used to "boop" that thing! Frank himself is resting in a beautiful wooden box. He's coming home now. Heather, thank you so much for the amazing love and care you showed us! I won't forget you.

Last week on the 23rd right before christmas, my dog of 14 years passed away at home. I remembered my bsf used FF and I reached out to get their info. I contacted them immediately and was assisted by Heather. She was very kind and helpful over the phone, gave me all the info about the various packages they offer. They offer 3 different cremations packages (private, witness, and communal). I chose to go with private bc witness was more than double the price of private. However, don't be nervous about going with private bc they have numerous ways to ensure that you will be obtaining your pet's remains back even if you aren't able to witness the full process. The private package included a simple urn (a box), paw/nose impression, and fur clipping. In their viewing room, they have numerous urns to choose from and upgrade from the package. Although it was so close to the holidays, I was able to pick up my baby girl the day after christmas. They were kind enough to gift us with a bamboo impression of her nose and paw as an ornament as well. The whole service and communication was truly great. I had no doubt in trusting Heather and her family with taking care of my pet. You can feel how much they care about animals and their passion in helping families get closure and having a beautiful send off for their pets. I will definitely recommend Furrever Friends to all pet owners when it's time to say goodbyes to our fur babies.
