How Much Does Horse Cremation Cost?
Horse cremation costs at Paws, Whiskers & Wags typically range from $1,650 to $2,150 depending on your horse’s weight. We provide private, whole horse cremation, where your horse is cremated individually and their ashes are returned to you. Pricing is $1,650 for horses under 1000 lb, $1,850 for those between 1000 and 1499 lb, and $2,150 for horses 1500 lb and over. These costs reflect the specialized equipment, handling, and space required to respectfully cremate a horse, as well as the inclusion of our patented Pet Tracker 360 system for traceability. Additional feed may apply for transportation and after-hours retrievals, based on your location and the horse’s weight. While lower-cost options exist, they often involve communal cremation without ashes returned.
At Paws, Whiskers & Wags, we focus on transparency, dignity, and ensuring the remains you receive are your own.
