Our Pet Cremation Services

Pet Friends offers a professional, secure, and personal pet cremation service in the Greater Montreal area, Eastern Townships, Laurentians, and South Eastern Ontario. We are available to pick up your deceased pet from your home 7 days a week.

Individual Cremation

Individual certified numbered cremation – where your pet is given the dignity of individuality in the cremation chamber – is a well-respected, time-honoured alternative to burial. While being the ultimate gift of love, individual numbered cremation also allows families to bring their pet(s) home to retain the ashes of their pet and determine a final resting place of their choosing.

All our cremations are certified, which means, and includes a cremation certificate which is numbered and signed by our technician.

The cremains come with a security medallion which has the same number and it will follow the ashes throughout the procedure. It is the same process as a human. Our cremains are put into a rigid plastic bag with the numbered security medallion attached and are either put into a velvet or satin pouch which is included or into an urn for an added cost.

This service includes:

  • Individual numbered cremation of your pet performed by a certified technician.
  • Guaranteed 100% recovery and return of cremains within 3-5 business days.
  • Keepsake satin or velvet pouch.
  • Signed cremation certificate with numbered security medallion.
  • Record of the cremation is recorded in the crematorium Book of Remembrance.

With Loving Care –

We will pick up your pet from any veterinary hospital or clinic free of charge within 24 hours of being notified, except for weekends and holidays.  Some charges may apply for locations outside of the greater Montreal area.

Attending the cremation

With prior arrangements the funeral home is reserved for the family attending the cremation. The family reunites with their companion half an hour prior to the service. From a window in our family room, the procedure can be viewed.

All attending cremations are scheduled in advance, so we can prepare all special requests allowing the family to leave the service with their pets cremains.

Safe Keeping

For those who wish to wait before burial or cremation, we provide a secure spacious cold storage for your pet. Contact us for pick up and delivery arrangements.

You are welcome to bring your pet directly to our funeral home yourself, 7 days a week, by appointment only.
