At Horizon, we carry this same philosophy into the afterlife care of your cherished pet.

Care. Empathy. Trust. For pet owners, the loss of a beloved companion is one of the hardest experiences they may face. Over 15 years ago, Dr. Capitanio’s deep love for animals inspired him to become a veterinarian. Today, that same love is matched by his profound empathy, which drives his work every day. From routine vaccinations to life-saving emergency surgeries, Dr. Capitanio has improved the lives of over 100,000 pets and counting.

It is this unwavering compassion that led him to focus on the afterlife care of pets. At Horizon, every pet is treated with the utmost respect, dignity, and care. Each member of our team has voluntarily taken the Horizon Oath, a commitment to treat every pet as if they were their own. Because at Horizon, we believe that every pet deserves nothing less.

Testimonials

• “I can’t thank Dr. Capitanio and his team enough for the kindness and compassion they showed when me and my family lost my cat, Souei. Losing him was so hard, but Dr. Capitanio went above and beyond to make the process gentle and comforting. He came personally to pick up my cat and the next day brought his ashes in a beautiful box along with a candle, a bookmark, and several paw prints of my cat that we will cherish forever. Every detail was so thoughtful and handled with so much care. You can truly tell they care about every pet and family they help. I’m so grateful for how respectful and understanding they were during such a hard time thank you so much and if anybody is looking for a pet crematory, this is the place to go!!!”

  Anita H

• “HI give Horizon a 5-star rating for the compassionate way they handled everything. From the moment Matt came to pick up my beloved pet, he was incredibly caring and understanding. When Horizon returned to deliver the ashes, I didn’t know what to expect, and I was deeply touched to receive my pet’s paw print in clay along with pieces of her hair. It was an emotional moment for me. Thank you, Horizon, for your kindness and for truly understanding our pain during such a difficult time.”

  Sylvia Ortega

• “We were extremely grateful to have found Dr. Matthew Capitanio and Horizon. Dr. Capitanio was very empathetic and understood our sorrow. We really liked his philosophy of treating your pet with dignity by offering only private cremations – one pet per chamber. The turnaround was very quick. He also included a card that was honest and thoughtful. Dr. Capitanio deeply understands the grief of pet loss.”

  H.S

• My baby passed away a few weeks back unexpectedly. We called many places and none were as compassionate and understanding like the employees at Horizon. They came and got her and in under 48 hours they came and dropped her off. Although her paw prints had her name misspelt, the employees at Horizon went out of their way to fix it. I truly appreciate the employees there for doing everything they can to make this process better as hard as it is. If your loved pet unfortunately passes, I would 100% recommend Horizon for the process after. Thank you Horizon and your amazing employees and thank you for bringing my baby back to me.

  Vania Rodriguez-Aguilar

• I called a few different places before reaching Horizons. I left a voicemail and within 3 minutes was called back. The person that called me was Dr. Matthew Capitanio himself. His sincerity and compassion is matched by none. I instantly had peace of mind that Mini was in good hands. You can’t put a price on what Dr. Matthew Capitanio provided. He gave me a listening ear, kind and empathetic words, an understanding of my broken heart, peace of mind, and lastly…the very closure I thought wasn’t possible.
