Pet Memorials & Local Pet Cremation Services

A pet memorial acts as a focal point for both grieving and tribute, whether placed in a public setting such as at a dog park or dedicated pet cemetery, or in your garden at home.

Just as every pet is different, every family is different. Yet, the love we have for our pets is universal. And today, the memorialized expression of this deep affection is growing more common throughout North America. Chances are, that you and your family are already thinking or have thought about designing and placing a memorial to your cherished pet. If not, you may be thinking where do you begin? You begin by thinking with your heart, not just your head.

What Makes a Pet Memorial?

We think it’s the love you shared, which becomes infused into the memorial garden stone, personalized cremation urn, pet headstone or grave marker you’ve selected. The items you chose may become a testament to your family’s love and devotion to their cherished pet. With that said, we invite you to stop by our office or give us a call to explore the creation of a physical memorial to your cherished animal companion.

It provides everyone involved with a focal point for their grief and gives them a place in which to actively mourn the passing of their animal companion.
