Having to go thru a death in the family is not only draining emotionally, mentally and financially. We found ourselves in that situation two weeks ago, and I only have praises for this establishment. The place, even if is kind of hidden, is extremely comforting and tranquil. The staff goes above and beyond to make everything run smoothly. Highly, highly recommend Aguero's.

Dr. Segovia and his team are the most compassionate. They helped us so much by coming to our 2nd floor apartment to assist with the passing of my 95lb fur baby, Leila. They transported her for cremation and I had her ashes, along with her paw print, and some of her fur, back home with us within a few days. Thank you for making this transition so easy O

Google Reviewer

Losing my baby was so tough but Paws and Whiskers made it so easy and returned her back in a beautiful form. I loved seeing her paws again and the lock of fur meant so much. Thank you for all you did to make this simple after losing my Shiloh.

Google Reviewer

I am so grateful for this service. They were patient with me when I scheduled and cancelled twice as I came to terms with the idea that my cat if 16 years was at the end of her life. When I finally decided they came quickly. They explained everything. They were gentle and caring with my kitty. They were very kind to me. They gave me and my other cat time alone with her after she passed. I will never forget their kindness and I am eternally grateful to them.
