Your Pet Never Leaves Our Care
At Pet Passings, we believe that saying goodbye to a beloved pet should be handled with compassion, respect, and complete transparency. Because we own and operate our local crematory, your pet never leaves our care. From the moment we receive your pet to the moment their ashes are returned to you, every step is handled by our own trained and caring staff.
Many pet cremation providers do not have their own crematory, meaning your pet is transported to an outside facility that you may never see or know. This can lead to uncertainty and a lack of accountability. At Pet Passings, we understand how important peace of mind is during this difficult time — that’s why we’ve made the investment in our own dedicated crematory, allowing us to personally oversee and verify every part of the process.
Why Having a Local Crematory Matters
Owning our own crematory gives us full control over the care your pet receives. It ensures that:
- Your pet is handled by our own trusted team — never by a third party.
- The cremation process is private, secure, and transparent.
- You can have confidence that the ashes you receive are truly those of your pet.
- We maintain the highest standards of dignity and identification from start to finish.
When you choose Pet Passings, you’re choosing a provider who values integrity and compassion above all else — one who treats your pet as if they were our own.
Our Secure Six-Step Cremation Process
During each pet cremation, we adhere to the following six-step identification and care process to ensure absolute dignity and accuracy:
1. Secure Identification
Upon pickup or transfer of your pet to our facility, we identify and tag your pet with a stainless steel cremation disc engraved with a unique ID number.
2. Constant Tracking
This stainless steel disc remains with your pet throughout the entire cremation process, ensuring there are no mistakes or mix-ups.
3. Careful Transfer
After cremation, your pet’s ashes are carefully placed into an urn.
4. Accurate Labeling
The urn is labeled with all essential information, including your pet’s name, cremation ID number, and your contact details.
5. Certificate of Cremation
Our staff personally prepares and signs a Certificate of Cremation bearing your pet’s name, your name, and the cremation ID number.
6. Secure Return
All documentation and your pet’s ashes are securely stored until they are personally returned to you.
This process ensures that from beginning to end, your pet is treated with the utmost dignity, respect, and care — exactly as you would want.
Complete Peace of Mind
Owning our own crematory allows us to stand behind our promise: your pet never leaves our care. You can take comfort knowing that everything takes place under one roof, by compassionate professionals you can trust.
Whether your pet’s cremation is private or communal, you can rest assured that every life we care for is honored with integrity and respect — because we know how much they meant to you.
