Pet Services
Animals are wonderfully agreeable friends. They ask so little of us, and give so much love in return. When it comes time for you to let go of your animal companion, making the decisions on how to care for their physical remains can be heart-wrenching.
A private cremation means your pet is placed in the cremation chamber alone. Upon completion of the cremation, your pet's cremated remains are removed from the chamber, and returned to you, in an urn of your choice.
Cremations
We operate our own pet crematory. Your furry family will be treated like one of our own for this dignified service. Cremated remains are returned to the family. We offer a selection of unique urns as well.
