Working With Your Vet, Mobile Vet or Pet Sitter
Wherever your pet passes, and whoever is with your pet, we make the next step simple for you.
You Choose Your Aftercare
If your pet passes at a vet clinic or emergency hospital, you do not have to use the clinic’s own aftercare service. Tell the staff that L.E.A.S.H. is handling aftercare, then call us. We take care of the paperwork and pickup.
In-Home Euthanasia
L.E.A.S.H. does not perform euthanasia. If you have planned a peaceful goodbye at home with your own vet, we can come at a time you arrange, so your pet goes gently into our care afterward.
Away From Home?
If you are traveling or cannot be there, we can work with your pet sitter, a family member or a friend. We keep you updated and handle everything quietly, with care and respect for your privacy.

“My husband dog was hit by a car at night. My husband was distraught and I honestly didn’t know what to do. I knew we wanted to cremate our boy so I woke up early and found LEASH. They were informative (on text per my request) and kind. The person that picked up my baby was nice and sincere. I highly recommend LEASH for your animal crossing journey.”
Google Review
“I am very appreciative that LEASH was so quick and so kind. They came all the way to Tucson within 2.5 hours of calling, and they were incredibly respectful during the entire process. This is the type of service you hope you never need, but it’s comforting to know that there is a reliable service if/when you do need it. Thank you LEASH!”

Pet Aquamation FAQs
What is pet aquamation?
Pet aquamation, also called alkaline hydrolysis or water cremation, is a gentle, eco-friendly alternative to flame cremation. Instead of fire, it uses warm water flow and a small amount of alkaline minerals to return your pet’s body to its natural mineral form. Only the bone minerals remain, which are carefully processed into soft, white ashes and returned to you.
Do you offer 24/7 immediate home or vet clinic pet pickup?
Yes. L.E.A.S.H. Pet & Exotic Animal Mortuary provides 24-hour pet pickup every day of the year, including weekends and holidays, throughout Maricopa, Pinal, Pima and Yavapai counties. If your pet passes away at home or at your vet clinic, day or night, call or text us at (602) 802-4040 and a Retrieval Specialist will come to gently bring your pet into our care.
How quickly can you pick up my pet?
In central Phoenix, our Retrieval Specialist usually arrives within one hour of your call, any time of day or night. Arrival times to communities farther from Phoenix depend on distance. Families more than 35 miles from our Phoenix location may have a distance fee for pickup.
Do I get my pet’s actual ashes back with aquamation?
Yes. When you choose a private aquamation package, you receive only your own pet’s ashes. A personal ID tag stays with your pet through every step of the process. Because aquamation is so gentle, it returns up to 20% more ashes than flame cremation. Private packages include hand delivery of your pet’s ashes and keepsakes back to your home.
How long until I get my pet’s ashes back?
Return time depends on the package you choose, and our team will give you a timeline when you make arrangements. If you need your pet home sooner, ask about our Expedited Services for a faster return. Call or text us any time at (602) 802-4040 for current timing.
What is the difference between aquamation and cremation?
Flame cremation uses intense heat and fire, while aquamation uses warm water and alkaline minerals. Both return your pet to ashes you can keep. Aquamation uses about 90% less energy, involves no flame, and returns up to 20% more ashes, which are typically softer and whiter in color. Because there are more ashes, your pet may need a slightly larger urn.
Is aquamation safe for the environment?
Yes. Pet aquamation is one of the most eco-friendly aftercare options available. It uses about 90% less energy than flame cremation and does not burn fuel or release smoke into the air. It is a gentle choice for families who want to honor their pet in a way that is kind to the earth.
Which animals can be aquamated?
We care for dogs of every size, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds up to 200 lbs (moved with a specialized carrier), as well as cats, small pets and exotic animals such as reptiles, birds and rabbits. We also handle farm animals up to 300 lbs. If you are unsure whether aquamation is right for your pet, call or text us at (602) 802-4040 and we will help.
How much does pet aquamation cost?
Our pet aquamation packages start at $250 for communal aquamation, $305 for the Pearl private package, and $330 for the Sapphire private package. Your exact price depends on your pet’s weight and pickup location. Call or text us 24/7 at (602) 802-4040 for your exact price.
