Blue Creek Pet Cremation, Tracy CA

Kevin and Mechelle were very responsive to my needs when I lost my beloved cat of 21 years. They scheduled me right away, even though the holiday was only 2 days away and were very caring and comforting during my time of heartbreak and despair. The turnaround time was prompt, considering it was a holiday weekend and the price is very affordable. I would recommend them highly. Kevin and Michelle are very compassionate people.

Considerate, compassionate, one price, flexible, kind people. No hoops to jump through. Trustworthy and professional. On time. This is where you want to bring your beloved pet.

Today we picked up Blade. I want to thank Michelle for helping us through this hard time. She's very compassionate and understanding. Meant so much to us that she referred to Blade by his name, not by dog or your pet she knew how much he meant to us. If I could give this place more than five stars I would thank you Michelle for helping us through this difficult time. Everything came out perfect cannot thank you enough

We have used the service several times over the past few years. Highly recommended for their empathy and reasonable prices.

I would give zero stars if I could and I would NEVER wish my experience with Blue Creek Pet Cremation on anyone who loves their pet.

I called Blue Creek on a Thursday and spoke to Kevin about their witnessed cremation services. The next day I call Blue Creek back to make an appointment because our little pug dog was going to be put down on Monday. I speak to Kevin again (who claimed to remember me) and he makes the appointment for Monday February 14th at 2pm. Later that morning Kevin texts me a confirmation of my appointment on Monday at 2pm, and the address to their facility (screenshots included).

I show up on Monday the 14th at 2pm cradling the body of my dead dog and a woman named Michelle tells us that they don't have us on the books and can't take us. She also adds in that her propane setup wasn't working right so her morning appointments were all backed up. Seriously? She barely apologized and then said she "couldn't find her husband" to confirm if he'd taken the appointment. She didn't even bother to talk to us outside and instead we had to shout to each other over the roaring cremation chambers that were on.

Who does this? !? ! I was DEVASTATED.

The whole reason I wanted our dog's euthanasia and cremation to happen on the same day was to avoid having to put his little body on ice, but I was forced to. I found an AMAZING cremation service in Livermore that allowed a fully witnessed cremation, and we had Oscar's service that Thursday. Stay away from Blue Creek Pet Cremation!

They provided a more compassionate and personal experience without charging the price of a new car. I had option to have a paw print with a frame and a necklace with my baby girl ashes for half the price of what my vet charged for just an urn. Thank you for the perfect paw print that I will use for my tattoo. It broke my heart to leave my baby girl there but you returned her to me quickly.thank you!

Thanks so much for all your help with our loss you were very respectful and caring. You made our girl so special in her beautiful box. Thanks again from our family

I had called around before the actual day came, about putting my dog Sky down. I rescued her as an adult, and had her for 14 years. She was having trouble getting up, walking and everything. I just couldn’t bear to do it. Couldn’t think of my life without her. I decided I would do it on my birthday 9/9. She passed the morning before. I called and made an appointment at 4: 45 PM. I was totally strong until I got there, then I just fell apart. They were so kind during me falling apart. Michele was so nice. After I paid I still had a hard time to let it go. I shut the tailgate on my truck. Michele, said “ look at that hummingbird just watching you “. I stood there at the back of my truck just watching the hummingbird sitting on a branch. ️️️ Thank you Kevin & Michele for everything.

Our beloved dog, Toppy, lost a two year battle with lymphoma on Saturday, April 3rd. The next day we decided to have him cremated so we could keep his ashes and picture on our mantle and remember him forever. Unfortunately it was difficult to find a crematorium on a Sunday and the local ones we found were not taking pets direct from owners due to Covid. Finally I managed to contact Kevin at Blue Creek Pet Cremation and he was very kind and helpful. We arranged to bring Toppy there on Monday. It was a bit of a drive to Tracy but well worth the trouble. Kevin and Michelle were wonderful and their price was very reasonable and even included a small wooden urn. We opted for an upgrade since we wanted Toppy's picture on the outside but there was absolutely no pressure to do so. I would highly recommend Blue Creek for anyone who loses a pet they love.
My wife and I were in a great deal of grief from losing our dearest boy. I was told by a grief counselor that writing a letter to a loved one who has passed was one way to relief some of the grief. I did so and it definitely helped although it did not completely stop my grieving. In case you might consider doing the same thing here is the letter I wrote to Toppy:

April 8,2021
Goodbye Dearest Toppy Dog,
I am writing this to tell you how much your Mom, your sister Shadow, and I miss you and love you.
To be honest I don't really believe in those stories of Heaven, Doggie Heaven, or the Rainbow Bridge. But I hope I am wrong in my beliefs and that you really are on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge waiting for us. I would be thrilled beyond believe to be proven wrong in this matter.
Anyway, in the eleven plus years you were with us you heard me say "Good Boy" many times and also heard me tell you how much I loved you. Now that you are gone I realize that I didn't say it often enough because you were absolutely the best boy and I loved you more than anything.

You were the cutest, sweetest thing as a puppy and over the years you even got better. For the last eleven years you were my best friend and were a significant part of your Mom's and my life. To be truthful our lives revolved around you in many ways. We even bought our Motorhome so we could take you with us wherever we went. Together we visited some 30 states and Canada and all of that travel was made far more enjoyable because you were with us.
We had a great many adventures together and I honestly can't think what we will do in the future without you. My best guess is that I have maybe ten years left in this old body of mine but if I had an option to have those ten years without you or just five years with you I'd take the five years in a heartbeat.
I have been crying much of the time since your passing. I'm ok for a time then I think of you and start crying again. The same goes for Mom. Sister Shadow doesn't cry out loud but she is clearly distressed and just lies around moping most of the time. Frank, Gail, Tom and so many others have expressed their distress at your passing and offered us their condolences. You are missed by so many!
In recent weeks you and Shadow went to the back fence around 2: 00 p.m. Each day to get a cookie from Mary. The first few days you were gone Shadow didn't go out at all. The last two days she has gone to the fence and when Mary gives her a cookie she takes it and puts it on the lawn for you then goes back to get her own.
Eventually Mom and I will get another dog so Shadow can have a companion much as we got Shadow so you could have a companion. I have no doubt that we will love the new dog much as we love Shadow. But I am absolutely sure that we will never love another dog more than we love you. You will always be in our hearts and minds. You were really something special.
If you really are up beyond a Rainbow Bridge then I hope you are aware of what I am writing and how I feel. Even if not I wanted to put in writing just how I feel to make sure I have something to keep and be sure I never forget you.
With all my love,
Your Dad

Had a wonderful experience.they are very flexible and very compassionate.i cannot recommend them enough.

These amazing people and their top notch service, made the best of a sad situation and the symphony and compassion was real. Ill be a customer for life.

I ended up losing 2 of my cat babies who happened to be sisters in the same week. While this was one of the worst times for me Michelle made me feel so much better and took such care to detail and accommodating to my little requests. I couldn't be more happy with how the urn and pawprints turned out. I would recommend them a million times and though I hope to not be back anytime soon I would definitely come back in the future.

The people at Blue Creek are not only highly professional but treated with respect our feelings when the time came to put our loved and loving Rocky to rest. They also have an all inclusive and very reasonable price for the service. You have a choice from many very nice urns, an official Death Certificate plus their own personalized Certificate of Remembrance for your pet. My wife and I recommend Blue Creek Pet Cremation.

Blue Creek treats each pet and family with the utmost respect, care and compassion through such hard times navigating pet loss.

As you know, it can be very difficult when you lose a pet and when they go, it's always too soon. My Molly gave 10 wonderful years before she was taken from me. Kevin and Michelle were so wonderful and kind. They provided me with comfort and understanding during the process of her cremation. I will always be grateful.

I recently lost my beloved pup child, Kaida. The folks at Blue Creek were so careful and compassionate. I definitely recommend this service
