Questions to Ask When You Call
You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

What Families Say
“My Stella crossed the Rainbow Bridge on December 16th. Everyone at Pet Meadow was very kind during the most difficult time of my life. They answered all of my questions. Everything I had done is perfect. I had my Stella in two separate urns so that my mom could have some of her since she took care of her until I was able to leave an abusive marriage. They also put a tiny amount in a separate bag so that I can eventually get a cremation necklace or ring made. My mom received a beautiful cherry wood box with a gold nameplate and shortly after I received the rest of her in a gorgeous white urn that they ordered for me. The night that I picked her up from Pet Meadow I saw the prettiest sunset I’ve seen all winter on the way home. Then before turning into my town there was a rainbow sticker on the car in front of me at the red light. Part of me believes they were signs from Stella letting me know she’s ok. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you guys so much.”

“Service was compassionate and professional, communication was great, and the keepsake products are really nice. They created an incredible print of my cat’s nose—far better than I ever imagined it could be. The final piece is a stunning, well-crafted piece of jewelry that I’ll cherish forever. Highly recommended! Ride on Rylie Cat 🖤💚”

“We lost our beloved pet German Shepherd Dog, Naya, after nearly 14 years. Pet Meadow was sympathetic to our sorrow and needs at a difficult time. We appreciate their kindness and consideration dealing with our loss. Their service was prompt and professional and they were very compassionate. Highly recommend if you are in a similar situation. Peace & blessings!”
