Fours Paws

About Four Paws

Four Paws is a locally owned and operated pet cremation service serving the Greater Houston area, founded by Lorenzo Bennett. Bennett holds a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science from Southern University and spent eleven years (2003–2014) as an ICU veterinary technician at the Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine — experience that directly shaped the ethical and compassionate approach he built into Four Paws. He is also a licensed minister with a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies from LSU, adding a dimension of pastoral care to his work with grieving families.

Four Paws serves pet owners and veterinary partners throughout the Greater Houston area, including League City, LaPorte, Alvin, Texas City, LaMarque, Friendswood, Dickinson, Hitchcock, Kemah, Seabrook, and communities across Brazoria, Fort Bend, and Chambers counties. One of the business's core commitments is transparent, verifiable quality control — the company guarantees that only your pet's remains are returned, with no co-mingling of cremated remains at any stage of the process.

Services Offered

Four Paws provides the following services to families in the Houston, Texas area:

• Individual Cremation — pet cremated alone; ashes returned in a complimentary urn or owner-chosen urn; certificate of cremation included
• Communal Cremation — group cremation; no remains returned
• 24/7 On-Call Pickup — from homes or veterinary clinics at any hour
• Grief Counseling — individual and group sessions with certified pet grief counselors
• Veterinary Partner Services — coordinated aftercare through veterinary clinics across the service area

What to Expect

Four Paws is available around the clock, so when you call, a team member answers and can typically arrange same-day or next-day pickup from your home or your pet's veterinary clinic. Client testimonials highlight turnaround times as fast as the same day for some situations, with remains typically ready within a day or two. For individual cremations, your pet is cremated alone with no co-mingling, and the ashes are returned to you in a complimentary urn along with a certificate of cremation. If your pet's passing has left you or your family struggling, Four Paws also connects clients with certified pet grief counselors who offer both individual and group support sessions.
