Compassionate pet care at life's end - Caring Pathways end of life pet care, hospice and in-home euthanasia services

Body Care Options

Before the euthanasia, we will discuss with you what your desires are for the appropriate body care for your pet. We offer the following alternatives:

Burial Options

Home Burial: We will provide a nice cardboard casket for a pet that weighs up to 70 pounds. We suggest that you check with your local city or county as to their regulations and the legality of home pet burial. We also encourage you to have the burial plot prepared before we come to your home for the euthanasia procedure. This allows you to have more time for memorializing and honoring your pet before and during the burial.

Pet Cemetery Burial: If you are interested in burial at a pet cemetery, we can help you in making those arrangements. Please make a note to discuss this option with us in more detail.

We have listed three pet cemeteries below:

  • Evergreen Pet Cemetery (303) 674-7777
  • Denver Pet Cemetery (303) 288-0177
  • Precious Memories Pet Cemetery in Fort Collins (970) 482-7557

Pet Cremation

There are two categories of cremation available, individual cremation and communal cremation.  We will make arrangements for the transportation of your pet to the crematory facility.  We will also arrange for the payment of crematory services at the time of euthanasia so that you have one less thing to worry about during such a difficult time. 

Individual Cremation: With individual cremation, your pet is cremated individually and your pet's ashes will be returned to you for memorialization and/or burial.

Communal Cremation: In this type of cremation, there will be multiple pets cremated with your pet. The ashes are scattered in a peaceful setting along with other pets. In this option, your pet’s ashes are not returned to you after cremation.
