For appointments where lifting assistance is needed but not available in the home and/or for pets over 120lbs, additional facilitation by Abbey Glen crematory will be necessary. When their assistance is needed, a fee of $150 will apply for appointments that are scheduled after 2PM and/or on weekends. Prior arrangements are required.
We work exclusively with Abbey Glen Pet Memorial Park, located in Lafayette, NJ, Sussex County. They have a deed-restricted property featuring a 14-acre pet memorial park and are open to the public. The staff of Abbey Glen are some of the most compassionate out there and they treat your pet with the utmost respect as if they were their own.

⦁ During this difficult time, out of respect to your family and to be as unobtrusive as possible, the doctor will arrive alone. To ensure peaceful transport, for pets over 30lbs, we may request your assistance in transporting your pet to the doctor’s vehicle on a blanket-lined gurney.
Individual Cremation
⦁ This option is best for families who would like to have their pet’s ashes returned to them. With individual cremation, the pet is cremated individually and only the ashes of your pet are returned to you. Ashes are returned in a rectangular bamboo urn, with a black plate engraved with your pet’s name (sticky on the back so you can display it however you’d like).
⦁ Ashes are hand delivered by Abbey Glen to your regular veterinarian’s office within approximately 7-10 days. Please ensure we have the correct regular veterinarian’s office on file in your confirmation email, as many hospitals have similar names.
⦁ Ashes can be mailed (signature confirmation required) for an additional fee of $30. With this option Abbey Glen will contact you with a tracking number. Ashes will be delivered via FedEx.
⦁ Ashes can be picked up directly from Abbey Glen, located in Lafayette, NJ.
⦁ Ashes may be available for hand delivery for $50 plus any regional drive fees. Please speak directly with Dr. Sandra to coordinate this option. Additional time required.
Communal Cremation
