The aforementioned services are not for the removal of owned deceased pets. If a constituent does suffer the loss of a beloved pet, Anne Arundel County Animal Services can handle the disposal of the remains for the citizen if the deceased pet is brought to the facility during normal business hours. There is a fee of $0.77 per pound for this service. We are not able to cremate and return a pet.
