Paws & Remember of Nebraska

About Paws & Remember of Nebraska

Paws & Remember of Nebraska is the Omaha location of the national Paws & Remember network, a pet memorialization organization founded in 1997 that has grown to serve communities across the United States. The Omaha facility is located at 2660 Ed Babe Gomez Avenue, and has been accredited by the Better Business Bureau since 2016. Paws & Remember operates with a published code of ethics that commits the organization to caring for every pet with dignity, respect, and professional skill throughout the death care and memorial process — from the moment a pet enters their care until the remains are returned to the family.

One of the defining features of Paws & Remember is their network-based model: they partner directly with local veterinary clinics and funeral home providers in Omaha, including 24th Street Animal Clinic, American Animal Hospital, Animal Clinic Suburban, Animal Spay-Neuter Clinic, and Backlund Animal Clinic, making it easy for families to arrange cremation services through a provider they already trust. To ensure accountability, every pet is assigned a numbered stainless steel ID tag that remains with them throughout the entire cremation process, with paperwork tracking and required signatures at the time of return.

Paws & Remember of Nebraska provides the following services to families in the Omaha, Nebraska area:

What to Expect

Families can arrange services directly through Paws & Remember of Nebraska by calling the Omaha facility, or through one of their partnering veterinary clinics throughout the city. Once your pet is in their care, a numbered stainless steel ID tag is assigned and accompanies your pet through every step of the cremation process, with documentation maintained at each stage. Upon receiving your pet's remains, families have described being moved by the thoughtfulness of what is returned — including personalized lock boxes with the pet's name, small bags of fur, and grief support literature. Paws & Remember views the return of remains not just as a logistical step but as a final act of compassion toward the families they serve.
