Losing a beloved pet is one of the hardest experiences a family can go through, and saying goodbye to our longtime cat was heartbreaking. During that emotional time, the team at Small Paws Cremations treated our family -- and our sweet cat -- with a level of compassion and dignity that we will never forget. From the very first phone call, their staff spoke with genuine kindness and patience. They understood that we weren't just arranging a service -- we were grieving a member of our family. Every question we had was answered gently and clearly, and we never felt rushed or pressured. Romo walked us through each step of the process, which brought us a great sense of comfort during such a painful moment. When they received our cat's remains, they handled everything with incredible respect. The care they showed reflected a true understanding of the bond between pets and their people. We chose a private cremation, and they ensured that everything was done exactly as promised. When we received the ashes, they were beautifully and thoughtfully packaged. The presentation was dignified and comforting -- a small but meaningful detail that showed how much they truly care. What stood out most was their empathy. You can tell this isn't just a business to them -- it's a calling. They treated our longtime companion as if she were their own, and that meant the world to us. In one of the most difficult moments our family has faced, Small Paws Cremations provided not just a service, but comfort, respect, and peace of mind. We are deeply grateful for the love and professionalism they showed and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing compassionate end-of-life care for their beloved pet.

We had been doing some research for a dignified and compassionate pet cremation service ever since our beloved cat, Princess, began refusing food last week. Knowing her time was near, we wanted to plan ahead and ensure she would be in caring hands when she passed. After several difficult days watching our girl in pain, we had the chance to say our final goodbye. Princess passed peacefully around 3 AM. By 6 AM, we contacted Small Paws Pet Cremation to arrange a private cremation. They responded with kindness and professionalism, reassuring us that they could come later this morning. Romo arrived promptly around 10:30 AM today, and we cannot thank him enough that he could come by to us on same day . He was incredibly compassionate, treating Princess with the utmost respect. He brought in a gurney and gently wrapped her in her favorite blanket, allowing us one last moment to say goodbye. The transport van was clean, professional, and appropriate for such an emotional and important service. In a big city, such as in Los Angeles it can be hard to find services that feel personal and genuinely caring--but Small Paws delivered that and more. We are deeply grateful for their support during such a heartbreaking time. We wholeheartedly recommend Small Paws to anyone seeking a dignified farewell for a cherished companion. Thank you again Small Paws for your compassion and dignified service. read more

It's been 2 months since Tony helped me with my beloved 19 year old kitty & sweet little soul mate, Punki. I was new to euthanizing & cremating a pet & I was so concerned that I was making the right decision & doing right by Punki. Tony was able to make an appointment the day that I needed her to be picked up after she was euthanized. He was very communicative about the process and accommodating about timing the pick up right. When he arrived at my apartment, he was so gentle, compassionate, patient, attentive, and professional about the whole process. I never felt uncomfortable or rushed. I was even impressed by how gently he covered her & carried her out & placed her so tenderly in the vehicle. About two weeks later I received the beautiful, heartwarming cremation package - Punki's ashes in a nice pouch, a lovely tribute poem with the picture that I chose of her, I really nice sympathy card with thoughtful, loving personal touches, certificate of cremation, Punki's cute little paw prints - the whole package was just so lovely, creative, & professional. I feel like I was sent an angel through Tony & his team, and I am so grateful for this amazing and necessary service that you provide. Thank you & warmest regards, Inga read more

I have so many great things to say about Romo and his Small Paws Cremations that it took me a while to make a review because I wanted it to be as meaningful and honest as my experience was with him and his service. When my best friend of 15 years passed unexpectedly on Thanksgiving Day, it was already a difficult time of transition and endings in my life. I had to find a cremation service last minute on a holiday and Romo showed up within a couple of hours. From phone call to pick up and drop off, he was professional, compassionate, held space for grief and gave his time with respect, care and generosity. He also helped me with a payment plan that made things a lot easier. He's true animal lover and understands the loss of a friend. This was not just a cremation service. He went above and beyond while communicating through the entire process. The memorial package was absolutely beautiful and created with detailed kindness. I was so touched that I was at a loss for words with how much the entire experience meant to me. I'll never forget it. I'm grateful to have found Romo and his beautiful service. If you consider your fur buddy a family member, I can't recommend Small Paws Cremations enough. They are special. read more

I lost my 'Best Friend' Teaspoon! Who myself and my sons loved dearly. He was the heart and soul of our family and losing him took a piece of me. He was a huge part of our family. He got me and my sons through some very rough patches. He was very spoiled and was loved by many, he lightened up so many lives. I'm also going to miss our daily walks as he walked with no leash and followed me everywhere. I know his spirit remains with me so that brings me solace. Making the decision to cremate him and reaching out to 'Small Paws Creations' made my grieving process less painful. From start to finish the Small Paws Pet cremation staff made me feel at ease. I'm so grateful God blessed me with the right company, others were telling about other deceitful pet cremation companies, which made me very nervous. My Teaspoon was in great hands and I'm so happy to have him back at home with me, knowing he was well taken care! The staff went above and beyond and sent photos to always remember my babies last days, I loved so much. Thank you so much Small Paws Pet Cremations! I give Small Paws Cremations Five to 10 Stars. Many Blessings To You And Your Staff... Amy & Romo read more

I cannot say enough good things about Small Paws Pet Cremations and the care we received from Romo during one of the hardest moments for our family. We recently had to say goodbye to our rad little guinea pig, Salvador Dali. Anyone who loves small pets knows they are family, and losing him was heartbreaking. From the very first conversation, Romo was incredibly kind, compassionate, and respectful. He treated Salvador with such dignity and care, and he treated us with so much patience and understanding during a very emotional time. The cremation process was handled beautifully from start to finish. Romo personally delivered Salvi's ashes back to us at our home. One of the most meaningful things they did was create paw prints of our sweet boy before the cremation. They turned out amazing and are something we will treasure forever. It was such a thoughtful touch that meant the world to us. If you ever need pet cremation services for a small animal, I highly recommend Small Paws. Romo clearly cares deeply about the animals he serves and the families who love them. We're so grateful that Salvador was in such caring hands. read more

So just recently our family lost two of its most precious members. our Frenchie named MYNE And our Pitty named SLOAN. They both left us only 3 days apart from one another. We found Little Paws on the internet and called them. Romo was who they sent out to pick up our beautiful girls. I can't say enough about Romo and the way he treated our dogs. absolutely amazing. He took better care of them than the people who picked up our grandfather back in 2021. He gave us time when he knew we needed it. And even space when we needed it as well. He is absolutely amazing. I truly hope little paws knows just how amazing Romo is with the people he comes in contact with. We just got both our girls back today. And we are happier than ever to have had a company who cares so much. Take care of our beautiful girls. Thank you Little Paws! For being as gentle and amazing as you were. and thank you Romo! For being the loving and caring person you are. We won't ever forget you ! Little Paws. HIGHLY RECOMMEND on ever level ! Thank you And may our girls rest in peace. MYNE ( MYJEWS). & SLOAN (MALONE) read more

We reached out to Rommel at Small Paws Cremations during one of the hardest moments for our family, after losing our beloved dog, Atlas.

Where do I even begin ? Small Paws Cremation came at a time when we needed a final resting place worthy of our sweet boy, Liam. The morning of 4/15/24, our Liam passed away in his sleep and during that time of great sorrow, we reached out to Small Paws Cremation and they made the difficult process of sending our boy to his final resting place a lot easier. Thank God for Tony- he came to our house with such compassion and understanding. He handled my boy with such care, even offered to return the blankey Liam was wrapped in when the cremains were returned. Saying goodbye forever to your fur-baby is hard enough, but Tony and Small Paws Cremations helped bring comfort when we most needed it. They were very transparent with the process and answered all my questions in a timely matter.

After the sudden loss of our sweet girl of 10 years it was a difficult decision to decide what to do with her body and where to take her. I found Small Paws Cremation on Google and gave them a call. They made the entire process so easy and heartfelt. It didn't feel like a company taking advantage of the situation for money grab. You could feel the love Tony and his team have for our pets. A moment I most dreaded getting her back for the fear of feeling her loss all over again felt much easier than I expected and I felt at ease and peace with everything. I received my girl in a beautiful wooden box with her photo and folders with poems and wonderful heartfelt notes written by the SPC team. She was also taken in towel and a blanket that was washed, folded and returned to us. You can tell everything was handled with love and care.

Before reaching out to Small Paws, I had contacted several other service providers, but their approach lacked authenticity. In contrast, from the moment I contacted Small Paws, I sensed a genuine commitment to providing support and service beyond just a business. The receptionist, Amy, demonstrated exceptional kindness and patience in understanding my state of mind. We collaborated to identify the most suitable service package for my late baby boy Puzzle, a 100-pound pitbull. Upon Romo's arrival to pick up Puzzle, he continued to demonstrate the same unwavering and genuine support. The process was meticulously planned and executed, which instilled a profound sense of reassurance within our family. Romo throughly outlined each step involved, ensuring Puzzle would be treated with the utmost respect and dignity, which brought us great peace of mind. My family and I are incredibly grateful to everyone at Small Paws who assisted in making this challenging time as manageable as possible. read more

Words can't adequately describe how much of a blessing Small Paws was for my Mario and me. Romo took exceptional care and honor of Mario and I'm so grateful. I wanted him to be treated special because he was special. Each animal gets their own private ride to the funeral home and that filled my heart. I wanted Mario to be cared for and I called different places until I had assurance that they would care for him and Small Paws was it! I didn't look any further after my call with Romo. When he came to pick up Mario, he gave me all the time I needed to say my goodbyes and even bowed his head in respect. He gently and carefully buckled him in and took his time in driving away. Mario's keepsakes are so beautiful and I can't express how happy I am that I have these beautiful memories of him in such a beautiful way. Romo and Small Paws' service COMPLETELY exceeded anything I could have ever imagined. read more
