Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my pet dies at home?
Unfortunately, death can happen at any time. First thing is to give yourself a moment to grieve. Losing a pet is extremely difficult and sometimes pet parents make rash decisions when emotions are high.
For some people, it is best to contact a friend or family member to help you emotionally and/or physically through this process. If cremation is the option you decide, you are welcome to call us to arrange to bring your pet in to us. If our business is closed, you can email us at info@PetHeavenFuneralHome.com us or text our mobile phone at 716-984-4687 and we will help answer any questions you may have.
We can arrange a pick-up from your veterinarian. Home pick-ups are not permitted because of COVID-19.
What does Pet Heaven Funeral Home offer?
Pet Heaven is unique in that we offer everything that a grieving pet owner would need. We cannot bring your beloved pet back, but our objective is to lessen your pain during this time. We offer a guest waiting area, viewing parlor, and private offices. We have a large supply of caskets, urns, markers, monuments, books, cards, and other bereavement products.

Non-Contracted Vet Pick-ups
Pet Heaven is able to pick up your deceased pet from your veterinarian’s office. Pick-ups are based on staff availability and will only be made Monday through Friday between 9:00am and 3:00pm. We will provide you with a 2 to 3-hour window for arrival.
Pet parents must pay the pick-up fee with either a debit card or credit card over the phone before Pet Heaven sends staff to your home or your veterinarian. Remaining payment for cremation will be accepted after your pet has arrived and has been weighed at our facility.
Charges are based on the distance from Pet Heaven Funeral Home to your home or veterinarian’s office:
0-15 miles: $99
15-30 miles: $149
Over 31 miles: $149 + $3 per each additional mile
Storage of deceased pet: $55 per month
Please Note: Storage fees are not payment plans. If you later decide to cremate your pet, you will need to pay the full cremation price, over and above any storage fees.
Due to COVID-19, we are not permitted to pick animals up from your home.
