About Us
Friends Forever Pet Crematory was born out of our love of all animals and inspired by one of our own pets, who was never thoroughly returned to us after his cremation service. Since then, we have set out to restore compassion and sensitivity to pet cremation. It is our vow to honor your pet in a dignified and loving manner as if they were our own. Our state-of-the-art boutique crematory offers a full suite of services and a comforting experience where stories are shared and the memories of your furry, scaly and feathery friends live on, FOREVER.
Battling the Broken System of Pet Cremation

Losing your pet can be as painful as losing a member of your family. And we assume that once they have passed, they will be treated with the same love and respect as they were in life.
The Licensed Funeral Directors and owners of Friends Forever Pet Crematory, experienced first-hand that this is unfortunately the exception.
When they lost their pet, Spike, they told their vet they wanted to keep his cremains (the term used for cremated remains).
The vet suggested an individual cremation, and explained that with this option, Spike would be cremated alone and returned to them.
This is where things went awry. After an agonizingly long two-week waiting period, Spike’s cremains were ready to be picked up. “When they handed me the urn, my heart sank. I realized that this was not the cremains of our pet. There had to be a mistake.”
The urn, which should have been nearly weightless, seemed to weigh about five pounds. Spike’s remains could only be a few teaspoons at most. This is because Spike was merely a one-pound rat.
“It sounds weird but rats make great pets. They’re super intelligent, energetic, and loving animals.”
The crematory handling Spike insisted he was cremated individually, but that “individual” actually means multiple pets cremated together, only separated by space. However, with no physical separation in the sealed concrete chamber, the: intense force of the high-pressured gas flames can cyclone the remains together during the process.
“After a bit of research, we discovered that misinformation about this process was common and the level of pet loss care available was quite poor, especially compared to the care we were accustomed to providing families as Funeral Directors”. “Now we were driven, we had a new sense of purpose.”
“We knew that with our backgrounds, this experience lingering in our hearts, and our compassion, we could drastically improve the quality of aftercare that pet parents were being offered. This industry desperately needed change.”
And so the pair forged ahead and opened Friends Forever to the public in October 2014, offering a memorial center for viewings and TRUE private cremations, where pets are cremated by themselves and parents can be present if they wish.
“We wanted to make sure that what happened to us would never happen to anyone else”.
Friends Forever Pet Crematory is already making great strides in their mission. Unlike other pet crematories that conduct mass pickups of deceased pets, sometimes frozen for weeks, and stuff them on top of one another in cargo vans, Friends Forever staff arrives quickly to gently transfer pets into their care from your vet’s office or your home. Remember, you have the right to choose your pet’s aftercare provider. If your vet is not currently a partner of Friends Forever, simply notify your vet that you are making your own cremation arrangements.
For even more piece of mind, Friends Forever has a secure identification system, chain of custody, and tracking procedures to guarantee the return of your pet’s remains within 72 hours. Additionally, Friends Forever provides exclusive access to an online memorialization where families can post obituaries with photos and invite their family and friends to share their memories.
Friends Forever has certainly raised the bar in pet loss, all the way to the human
level, and are committed to providing a meaningful, everlasting tribute to your
pet.
“Friends Forever is not run as a disposal business where your pet is just a number. They will be handled in the most humane and thoughtful manner, the way we wanted our Spike to be handled. And for those suffering from a loss, our boutique offers a quaint and cozy setting as if you were in the comfort of your own home.“

“Cremation is considered a final disposition method and you have only one chance to do it right. We follow our own strict ID procedures so that every pet that comes to us will be returned. We offer our clients peace of mind during their time of mourning and remembrance.“

Under Cover Pet Crematory Sting Revealed!
The Troubled Cremation of Stevie the Cat
Not all pet crematories are like ours. In this undercover investigation the pet remains received back were not the pet—or even the fake pet—that was delivered. Learn why “Individual” or “Segregated Cremation” are not Private Cremations.
Friends Forever was beyond helpful, compassionate and supportive. No nonsense and easy to understand, I knew exactly what to expect and receive. Outstanding communication, rapid service and attention to detail made this difficult time so much easier. I highly recommend Friends Forever Pet Crematory to anyone losing a beloved pet. I can’t thank you enough for taking the time and caring for Oreo.
