My beautiful boy Pudding had passed away unexpectedly in the middle of September and I was at a loss on what to do afterwards. I knew I wanted him cremated, but was struggling on where to go. Thankfully, my mom helped me find L.E.A.S.H and they were so patient with me during the time that I was gathering funds for their service. When I did show up to the building (I didn't want them to drive over a hour out,) I met up with Greg and he commented on how awesome Pudding looked (I agree, he was the best snake I ever had) and seemed truly sympathetic for me on losing him. Since it's a long trip back out to Phoenix for me, they even held onto him for a couple weeks until I was able to pick him up. I'm very grateful, thank you so much.

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.

Sadly My 11.5 year old Blue bully passed in his sleep in the middle of the night. My experience with LEASH was dealt with care and compassion. They communicated and arrived timely and Gregg who arrived to take care of my boy was very kind in caring for my beloved pet.

Apache Junction Pet Cremation FAQs

Do you offer 24/7 pet pickup in Apache Junction?

Yes. L.E.A.S.H. answers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call or text (602) 802-4040 and a dispatcher will arrange pickup from your Apache Junction home or vet clinic. Apache Junction is a longer drive than central Phoenix, so the dispatcher gives you an honest arrival window on the call.

How much does pet cremation cost in Apache Junction?

Communal pet cremation starts at $180, private pet cremation starts at $205 and pet aquamation starts at $250. The exact price depends on your pet and the package you choose. Pickup is included within 35 miles of our Phoenix office. Many Apache Junction addresses are farther, so a distance fee may apply, and the dispatcher tells you the amount before you decide.

Can you pick up my pet from a vet clinic in Apache Junction?

Yes. If your pet passes or is euthanized at a clinic in Apache Junction, tell the staff you have chosen L.E.A.S.H., then call or text (602) 802-4040. We coordinate the pickup with the clinic directly, so you don’t have to transport your pet yourself.

Can you pick up from a ranch or acreage property?

Yes. We help families on acreage in Apache Junction, Gold Canyon and the Superstition foothills, including farm animals up to 300 lbs. Let the dispatcher know about gates, long driveways or the animal’s size when you call.

What is the difference between private and communal pet cremation?

With private cremation, your pet is cremated alone and only your pet’s ashes come home to you. With communal cremation, several pets are cremated together, so no ashes are returned. Our Silver, Gold, Titanium and Platinum packages are private, and Platinum lets you witness the cremation at our partner crematory in Mesa. Bronze is communal.

How long until I get my pet’s ashes back?

Private cremation usually takes 7 to 14 days. Private aquamation usually takes 14 to 21 days. If you need them sooner, ask about our Expedited Services option.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. Private payment plans with no credit check are available on most packages. They are not available on the Platinum, Bronze or Quartz packages.
