Trusted Journey Indianola

"I want to say that losing your beloved animal is an extremely painful and traumatic event(whether they pass or you have to euthanize). I lost my precious cockapoo: Eli on 4/19/2024. He had just turned 15 years on 3/28/24. He had been misdiagnosed the vet that has seen him for 2.5 yrs. On 4/11 that vet said allergies & reverse snoring with dual ear infection. Within 8 days-Eli wasn’t eating, urine was dark, & he was worse. I took him to a different vet(University of West in WDM, Ia(superb). This vet looked @ his records, listened to my baby(let me listen), & crated his lungs. This cet showed me the xray(lungs shld be black). His lungs were all white, except for 1 small area(less than 1/4) basically suffocating). I euthanized him, part of my heart died when he took his last breath!Trusted Journey Indianola is phenomenal, they carefully handled my Eli with care. The vet office made a mistake with the urn, they brought a different urn to the clinic, and then I moved across the state to be closer to my family. I ended up being allergic to the cedar urn; it was also scratched. I called and spoke with Abby, she replaced, sent the new urn, & it came quickly! I won’t be getting anymore dogs as my heart is in heaven w/ my sweet Eli 3/28/09-4/19/24- but if I did I would have this place cremate because of how amazing they were with my baby. Thank you so very much for caring for him in death."

"I recently had to say goodbye to my elderly cat and this is the service that my vet uses for cremation. I was able to choose private cremation and when his ashes were returned, they were accompanied by a certificate to show he'd been privately cremated. His ashes came back in a lovely wooden urn with his pawprints. Thank you for taking good care of my cat's body and returning him to me safely."

"On the 4th I had to put my elderly chihuahua down at my vet and they used this company to give me her remains back….they came in a beautiful wood box and a clay paw print with her name….also they put in a beautiful certificate of cremation….thank you so much for taking care of her after leaving the vet….im still mourning pretty hard but this definitely helps"
