Aftercare
In most cases, we facilitate the transfer of your pet from your residence. We partner with Pet Meadow, a leading aftercare provider to provide the following services:
Pet cremation
Pet Meadow provides True Private pet Cremation — where each pet is cremated in its own chamber. Utilizing state of the art equipment and a rigorous tracking system ensures the integrity of their processes. Your pet’s remains are returned in an elegant wooden memorial chest or a range of personalized memorial urns which are available on the website or on display at their New Jersey memorial center.
Pet aquamation
Aquamation is a gentle and natural process that is similar to the pet’s body decomposing in soil. It involves placing the body in a warm alkaline solution, which accelerates the breakdown of organic materials. This significantly reduces carbon emissions and minimizes the use of natural resources compared to traditional cremation.
Pet burial
Pet Meadow offers pet burial services including casket and granite marker. A deed restriction and maintenance fees ensure the continuation of the cemetery. You can make arrangements by calling the office.
Medical Consultation
We perform a physical exam and a range of medical testing to diagnose and monitor specific conditions for senior and infirmed pets from the comfort of their home.
