Meet the vet behind Bicol Paws
Dr. Carlou Orozco—or “Doc Carl” as his clients call him—has spent more than ten years caring for animals and watching them grow up beside the families who love them.
But in every vet’s life comes a moment that never gets easier: saying goodbye.
Whenever Doc Carl saw families heartbroken from the loss, he silently wished there was something he could do to bring them even a little comfort and ease.
So he built something that could try — Bicol Paws.
Meet the vet behind Bicol Paws
Dr. Carlou Orozco—or “Doc Carl” as his clients call him—has spent more than ten years caring for animals and watching them grow up beside the families who love them.
But in every vet’s life comes a moment that never gets easier: saying goodbye.
Whenever Doc Carl saw families heartbroken from the loss, he silently wished there was something he could do to bring them even a little comfort and ease.
So he built something that could try — Bicol Paws.
Bicol Paws was born out of compassion and the belief that even in parting, our pets deserve dignity and respect.
Doc Carl has always been hands-on, not just in his practice but in everything he creates.
He has a quiet passion for design, the kind that turns simple memorials into original works of art. Each piece you see at Bicol Paws is carefully thought out by him: the soft greenery, the delicate ribbons, the way light passes through the acrylic.
He pours himself into every detail because he knows this is more than just décor—it’s memory, love, and farewell all at once.
What started as a vet’s simple wish to make goodbyes a little easier has now become a space filled with warmth, respect, and heart.
Because for Doc Carl, this has never just been about cremation.
It’s about giving families the opportunity to eternalize memories—celebrating a bond that lives on in every paw print, every keepsake, and every moment we carry home.
Your furbaby is in good hands till the very end
To him, every pet his team carries back to Bicol Paws isn’t just another “task” in the pipeline.
They were once someone’s family member, loyal companion, and in many cases — their greatest source of strength.
And when it’s time to say goodbye, he treats them like his own, handled with gentleness from pickup to the moment they’re returned home.
