We had to put our 18 year old kitty, Morgan, to sleep on 1/28/22. It was the hardest day of my life. I had called Companions for Life about a week in advance and she answered ALL the questions I had. We were able to get her cremated the same day we had to put her to sleep. The staff was waiting for us when we arrived, opened the door for us, and escorted us to the private cremation room. We were able to spend time with Morgan, get a paw print, and say our goodbyes. They even let her be cremated with her bed. We can't thank you enough for your compassion and support.

They were so sweet and professional during a hard time. We are 2 hours away and they made sure we were able to pick up the same day.

Our precious Sadie Jewel passed at almost 14 years old on 1/19/2024. After speaking with Companions For Life we knew they were the ones to care for our Sadie. They were compassionate and caring with every turn. Were were able to purchase paw prints that were very nicely done. We would highly recommend them for your next time of need. We wouks give them 10 stars if that had been an option. Very pleased.

So thankful for Companions for life! We woke up Monday morning to find out that sometime overnight are animal had passed. It was such a shock and a very difficult, I found Companions for life and gave them a call. I spoke with Amber -she was SOOO sweet and empathetic I explained the situation and she was able to provide great information and a solution. Not only was it's affordable but Mariah was able to come to our home, pick up our dog and transport him back to the office door we did not have to go through the heart ache of it. With in 24-48 hurts we were able to pick up our dogs ashes in a beautiful little wooden box and it even came with a beautiful gold in memory with our pets name sticker to put on the box. I am so grateful for you all and how extremely kind, understanding and empathetic you were in such a hard and stressful moment for us. 🐕🐾❤️

Companions for Life took my call on Monday, I took my sweet baby in Monday night and I got a message from Kristina letting me know his remains were ready to pick up the next day. She sent me a photo of his paw prints and handled my pet with so much love. I couldn't have asked for better for my Chameleon Rex. I will be back in the future because of the wonderful, and caring service I received!
