We lost our pup Saturday, so soon, and we were so devastated, Tuesday I went to pick her up and they had engraved the box beautifully and were so kind to us, the same night I checked the mail we received a condolences card from them as well. This was our first dog as adults we had, it meant the world to us to be dealt with so kindly when our world was flipped so fast.Thank you for your kindness, we made sure to put your card on the shelf next to our baby. Thank you again, sincerely.

Thank you so much to everyone at Lasting Paws. We had to put our boy down and within 2-3 days our babys cremations were ready to be picked up. Every time i called or I was called i was greeted with a kind and caring person on the other line. Their urns were reasonably priced and the paw print came out looking amazing. Thank you to everyone at lasting paws for your compassion. Your customer service is phenomenal and i would definitely recommend you to anyone who asks

One of the worst services to need, but an exceptional experience in our moment. The staff member was friendly, compassionate, empathetic and extremely respectful of the brevity of the situation when I arrived. She helped me to remove our beautiful girl from the blankets and offered me more time with her if I needed once I started almost ugly crying once more. Most importantly, she gave me faith that they would respect our pup through the entire process, which gave me great relief in such a tough time when I had to say my final goodbye. We know that Rosie is in the best hands for the final phase of her journey. Thank you so much Lasting Paws.

Thank you for your kindness and compassion. When I mentioned that I intended to have some of my dog’s ashes crafted in a glass memorial piece, you immediately offered to put some aside for this purpose. You helped make a horrible time in my life much easier and more beautiful.

These folks are the Best !VERY CARING AND PROFESSIONAL !THEY GO ABOVE AND BEYOND !I have lost many pets and they have ALWAYS BEEN THERECan’t say enough about their KindnessThank You Lasting Paws and crew for another jobWELL DONE !!!

My beautiful baby Lilo passed away on March 13th. due to the snow I could not find anyone open to cremate her. Thankfully Lasting Paws was open and from the moment they answered their phone they were caring, understand and patient. They stepped me through the process and pricing and when I brought my dog in they treated her with respect and love. I picked up her remains today and they provided a beautiful paw print, her remains and also wild flowers to plan in her honor. Their kindness and professionalism is outstanding and I recommend them to anyone who loses a pet.

Our beloved dog was brought home so much faster than expected. Everything looks so nice and the staff was so kind. Thank you for your prompt service and kind words. They mean more to our family than you’ll ever know. This was a day I dreaded but you helped us get through it and are helping us heal.

I appreciate how great the staff is here. They are very respectful and got my baby back to me very fast and it was beautiful. I would suggest a variety of urns though.

We lost our 13 year old Lab Dingo the evening before Thanksgiving. With it being the holiday and the unexpected heartache we found ourselves in, I can not thank the team at Lasting Paws enough for the compassion they showed us. From the very moment Gwen answered the phone we felt like we were in good hands and since then they have blown us away with how thoughtful and caring they are. We went to them because the reviews were so touching and now find ourselves singing praise as well. Thank you Gwen and team for making this loss easier for my family and I.

The staff at lasting paws were very professional and kind. The hand written sympathy card they mailed us , and the wild flower seeds were very thoughtful.

I have no words to express my gratitude for Gwen and the team at lasting paws. We struggled to find somewhere we could trust in Pueblo to take care of our Ginger, and we feel so confident in our choice here. They were so kind and caring, even sending a sympathy card to us before we were able to get back to springs to pick up the ashes.The packaging was so thoughtful and we really appreciated the extra steps they took to make sure we were taken care of. The resources for grief and the wildflower seeds were wonderful and the urn and engraving we selected came out so beautiful.We absolutely would trust lasting paws again to handle our beloved pets when the time comes.

Website says they offer privately witnessed cremations which they do not. Their excuse for not offering it was covid. Needless to say, I called around and found a wonderful place that does allow privately witnessed cremations in Denver and for a much better price.

Amazing staff! Super kind and sympathetic, they made this hard time a little easier. They are so thoughtful and are the best place to get your pet cremated. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. They go the extra mile to make you feel better, very classy, they gave me a little care package with wildflower seeds to plant in memory of my lost pet. They are just super sweet. ❤️

Lasting Paws is a very respectful place to experience a last loving moment for your 4 legged child❤Thank You!

Thank you so much for making sure my dog CooperGirl was taken care of during cremation. It was never easy for me to let go of my 14-year old loving companionship. I picked up her urn and paw print in a box and I felt at ease knowing that you do care about pets. I appreciate little things you added in the box (i.e. pet grieving info, counseling group info and wildflower seeds). Its little things that makes life a bit brighter. You are the best.

Thank you so much for taking good care of our pet. I dont doubt that she was given the respect and care, right to the end. Lasting Paws have treated us with such kindness and sensitivity and we really appreciate all the small gestures they made (cards, seeds etc). I highly recommend entrusting them with your pets final journey.

They did the most wonderful job with our little Chloe girl. I highly recommend these lovely people. Very thoughtful, amazing and touching at such a horrific time in our lives.

Everybody should know about this amazing service that Lasting Paws provides. Their help really gave us peace after losing our boy. Everybody there is so nice and compassionate, it made it a comforting atmosphere during this stressed out time.But what we really appreciated was the service of being able to have a private cremation where we were able to be present to make sure our boy was by himself. This way we knew it was for sure his ashes and nobody elses. It was a hard time that they really helped with and I am forever grateful to everyone at Lasting Paws.I just dont understand how people can be upset with their prices. Its an understandable tough service to offer and I dont think their prices are unfair at all. I spared no expense on my boy through his life so there should be no reason to start now.Thank you so much for everything to Lasting Paws!

I can not say enough good things about lasting paws. Noone ever wants to use a service like this but they are the most caring, genuine group you could imagine. I called an emotional wreck pretty late at night and they didnt skip a beat to help us say goodbye to our forever Marley. They made something horrible not so horrible. Thank you so much.. and if you find yourself in need of saying goodbye to your furry pet this place is a must

An incredible experience. Lasting Paws / Homeward Bound were very compassionate and made us feel at home. They treated our cat with dignity and respect. It gave us such peace. When we picked up our cat after his memorial services they presented us with him with such warm care and it was beautifully done. I highly recommend their services for your loved ones. Thank you!

When our beloved Black Lab Kogee , my husbands hunting and fishing companion passed away, the care and dignity provided by the personnel at Homeward Bound toward my husband and Kogees body eased the grief and pain we felt upon his parting. His cremains were returned to us in the cedar cask chosen in 24 hours.

Had to have my dog cremated here and I was treated very well on the phone and in person. Staff really care about your animal and empathize with your situation. Definitely made the process easier for us. Thank you

We had to say good bye to our sweet girl Lily. With our hearts so shattered and us so unprepared for this, this company took care of it all. Even though we are heartbreaking we couldn’t have asked for a better memorial for our girl.

The most caring and compassionate people I have found in this crucial part of pet aftercare. They have a difficult job and everyone here works very hard to be efficient and compassionate at the same time. They pay great attention to detail and are very sensitive to your needs. It is without a doubt the best facility in this city and frankly we are lucky to have them. I highly recommend them.

Just received our precious Chloe back from Lasting Paws. The beautiful wooden box, the paw print, seeds, certificate and support information could not have been more thoughtful or perfect.Thank you all for giving my husband and I the comfort we needed to feel our baby was handled with love and dignity.We do appreciate it.Deb & Phillip Silva

I’d give 5 stars due to many years of great service under “Homeward Bound”. However, since it became purchased by a corporation, I’ve experienced an unacceptable issue. My pet passed away Tuesday at 1 pm, and when I was at my vet, they called LP at 1:30, but it was too late for the day. I thought surely a pickup the next day. I called LP (not as good a name as Homeward Bound) and a very nice lady explained why pickup would take 3 days, though it was a 15 minute drive. Google map shows walking 2 1/2 hours. She said the boss felt it worked best for them. Best for them? What? What about the customer??? It certainly doesn’t work in MY best interest for my pet to stay in a deep freeze for three days on a 15 minute trip. I had the option of taking my pet out of my veterinarian’s freezer and driving to their location. Seriously, for $200, I expected much better, and it isn’t about cost alone. Lowering the standards of care is wrong. I’ll be shopping around after 20 years of excellence with Homeward Bound. I’m curious if my pets ashes are being mixed with others that day. I’ll be furious. Ask them, I will when I cool off.Update. While I’m still angry about the three day waiting in the deep freeze, I received her ashes today. I was reassured it was her ashes only. The packaging was beautiful and professional. As I opened the package, there was a beautiful cedar urn with a small brass lock, her ashes nicely bagged inside, authentic paperwork, and nice card of sympathy. That lowers my anger, the presentation of the urn was A+.

The wooden urn is more than we could have hoped for or imagined - beautiful & engraved with our sweet girl’s name & the paw print is perfect as well. The certificate made us feel good knowing she was handled with “dignity & respect.” Thank you for your professionalism, kindness & perfect resting place for our beloved dog in this hard time for us it means so much.

Very kind and compassionate. We always wondered when we lost Gracie if we really would know it’s her ashes...they returned her titanium hip and femur which proved we had our girl home. Thank you for giving us this comfort.

Went through Fort Carson to get our dog cremated. Received a bag with his wooden urn, a card, and some wildflower seeds with a lasting paw card as well. Very professional and caring although I did not actually met them.Would recommend them if your thinking of keeping your friend close to you forever .

Homeward Bound did a remarkable service for my family. The individual that cared for us in the front office was very compassionate and sympathetic to which both my husband and I needed. Just last week we received a card in the mail signed by the all the staff in sympathy of our loss, it was totally unexpected but greatly appreciated. Thank you for everything.

We had to take Chase, our dog who was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer to Powers Pet Emergency Oct. 31 to be euthanized. It was probably the hardest life event for me personally as Chase was so loved, my best friend, and deserved none of this. Homeward Bound handled his cremation. I went this morning to pick Chase up and the box they gave us and the care given to him was so appreciated. We just opted for a cedar latch box, no frills as part of him will go on a mountain and the family farm. We have Chase home now and I am so grateful for a place like Homeward Bound.

Our dog, Ranger, was cremated through Lasting Paws. The box, the card inside and the packet of wild flowers were all perfect. Thank you for taking such good care of him and giving us something back to always remember him by.

So pleased with this service! In conjunction with Home With Dignity, they made this process painless! We got our beloved TCs ashes back in a beautiful hand carved, wooden box! Im not sure what the previous reviewer is complaining about, but we, too, got a paw print back that had a few specks of dirt in it (from his paw), as well as some of his fur stuck to the clay, and it actually added to the sentimentality of the print. I wouldnt change a thing! The gal we worked with was very sweet and very professional. I would highly recommend this service! Thank you Homeward Bound!

I lost my first love the other day and Homeward Bound was beyond amazing. Very sincere and showed so much care for never having met my pet. I cant thank them enough.

My cat was put out of his misery on the 6th of Febuary 2019. He had cancer and I had him since I was 7 so I was very broken hearted. I received his ashes from this place. There was a cute urn, a certificate of his cremation all nicely placed in a box. Thank you for caring for my baby boy. It was my first time doing a cremation and I hope he was handled with care. 💓

If I could give this wonderful place a 100 out of 5 stars if I could. The people are amazing and they care for your fur baby as well as have compassion for the owners. I called many places... Had nothing but rude and heartless people who didnt seem to have any understanding for those of us who love our pets. I stopped callong after Homeward bound they were so caring and understanding. I took my doggo there which I had for 15 years and was my 1st and only puppy. (The others are older rescues) and just walking through the door made my heart feel at ease. They are so warm and really care about what they do here. This place is by far the best. Thank you homeward bound for helping me and taking such good care of her and giving me parts of her. (Foot print, hair, and ashes of course) You guys are great!

My momma was concerned when Homeward Bound was purchased by a large corporation but she says the service remained outstanding. Friend Oscar was cremated on August 30th, after his battle with cancer ended. Momma went to the facility to purchase a keychain to keep a small bit of him with her at all times and the service from the employees was kind, gentle and patient during that most difficult time.His ashes were returned to us packaged in a lovely box with a sympathy card, certificate of cremation, the keychain and his pawprint. We could not have been more pleased with the way friend Oscar and Momma were treated by everyone involved.Thank you Lasting Paws for making a difficult time just a tiny bit better.

I would not recommend this place to anyone if you really care about your four legged babies. I was wanting to make sure my Isabella was cremated by herself & the lady there could have cared less that I was concerned. Isabella was my rock when my husband was in Afghanistan and if someone cant have feelings or they have a bad day , they should stay home or get another job.

Its always hard to go through this process. My Pyrenees had kidney infection suddenly died at home Valentines day. Within 12hrs of passing she was cremated same day in private single cremation. It cost double but I didnt want to wait a week like other places. Homeward bound was prompt and quickly accommodated my needs.

Homeward Bound was extremely professional and compassionate during the difficult process of saying goodbye to a beloved pet. They have a comprehensive website and offer a broad range of services at affordable prices. There are different tiers of services available offering a range of prices.

We went to Homeward Bound today with a dying dog. We called first and were told to just come in. We got there at 2:00 and were told that it would take 20 minutes to get a vet there to euthanize our poor dog. After numerous inquiries and 2 1/2 hours later we were told that we would have to re-schedule the following day. I guess they don’t mind making a dog suffer another day. The only employee there only seemed to be interested in selling things to people who are obvoiusly grieving for their dead pets. What a sham. Don’t go to this place if you are expecting to find somone who gives a damn about a dying and suffering dog!

Thank you for taking good care of my family. You guys are wonderful!!

The most friendly, professional, and compassionate people imaginable. They even provided me with replacement documentation at no cost almost 8 months later! Absolutely the best!

Wonderful people and service. I have used Homeward Bound to cremate two of my beloved cats and would highly recommend them!

I would never have any pet of mine cremated here again!! Very disappointed. Expensive on top of it. I opened the container he came in and luckily I had the bag over the table. There was a hole in the bag. Then I got back one dirty paw print. His name was misspelled. The vet had even written it down how I spell his name. They spelled it right every where except on his paw print. It was very up setting.The year before my other dog had to be put to sleep and that place only charged 85dollars and she was in a nice chest with a flower on it and they did a paw print of front paw and one of the rear and put them NOT in a plastic bag on how to bake it but in nice netted type little bags. Also the paw prints were clean. They showed some care in what they were doing. I would put the name of them but not sure if I can. But it was through CSU in Fort Collins co.

Very kind and patient people work here.

I spoke with Kaz through the entire process!! My husband and recently had to put down my ferret, Harley. She was almost 14 years old and my best friend for so long. My husband picked her up (after she was cremated) and not only brought her home, but had the most loving care package which was totally unexpected! I had no idea my little ones paw prints were going to be printed in clay with Harleys name carved beside! I cried such a good cry because I have so much more to remember her by! Thank you, Kaz, and everyone at Homeward bound! Absolutely amazing experience!

They are the best, compassionate and accommodating, they made a very difficult day better! Thank you!
