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.
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.

“I would use Paws and Remember and recommend them to anyone who loves their pet as much as I do. I heard horror stories of pets getting mixed up during the cremation process but Todd walked me through the options I had with my dog before he crossed rainbow bridge. My experience with them was truly one of a kind. I lost my Brody a few months back and was absolutely devastated, he was my first dog and I never had to put my pets down previously. When I got his urn back I was blown away at the quality, the clay paw print, and the certificate of cremation. I had absolutely no doubt my boy was in the best of hands. Thank you so much to Paws and Remember for treating my boy Brody with dignity and respect. When the time comes with my other pets, I’ll definitely use you guys again.”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! My sweet girl, Russia, was getting ready for her forever sleep and I was dreading having to make all the arrangements for her. Some places treat you like a customer and can be so cold. But that wasn't the case here. I had the pleasure of dealing with Todd, he was so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He made this difficult time easier on me and I am so grateful. When he told me it would only take a few days to receive my pets ashes, paw prints, and memorial box I was happily surprised! I thought I would have to wait at least a week or two. I would highly recommend Paws & Remember to anyone who needs these services performed and wants to ensure their pet is treated with love and respect. They really do care about you and your pet and it shows in how they run their business! I can't thank them enough for the wonderful job they did and kindness they showed me.”

“I didn't use their service directly, but the vet (Cat Tales) sent my cat there. After a week, I finally got his ashes back in a beautiful wooden box with a secured latch and his name scribed on top of the lid. I also got his paw print plus a seedling patch I can plant in his remembrance. I couldn't be happier how much care they put into my little buddy's final journey. Thank you.”
