Same-day Cremation - Beloved Companions

				Beloved Companions are a responsive, compassionate and reasonable pet funeral and aftercare service that help people manage THE HARDEST aspect of being a pet lover! My first experience with them was recent and it was phenomenal. As sad as it sounds, I'm much reassured having found them, knowing I've got a plan for my pets in the future. My sweet little Morkie passed quietly at home in my arms after valiantly fighting kidney disease. After a moment of gratitude for his peaceful crossing(at home! In my arms!) I realized I had no idea what to do next; he died the night before scheduled in-home euthanasia appointment with Lap of Love. They were going to take care of everything,  and I had no idea what to do with his body, and it was already 11pm on a Tuesday! Lucky for us, Lap of Love returned my call and walked me through handling Lucky's little body until the next day****PLEASE also  see my 5 star review of Lap of Love!!!***) The next morning, I called my vet about cremation. The receptionist told me bring Lucky in, they could hold him until 'weekly cremation pickup' . I would need to call the office on arrival so 'they could meet me at the back door'. While I absolutely LOVE Lucky's team of vets, I was disgusted with this idea.  Also she didn't even offer condolences! (I won't name the practice because the doctors are outstanding!) I said no thanks and  looked up  pet cremation services on Google. My first and only call was to Beloved Pets. Dave arranged to pick little Lucky up within the hour. He arrived on time and showed nothing less than true compassion, empathy and professionalism. I am so grateful that I did not have to bring Lucky anywhere, and that pickup was so quick. Dave carried Lucky to his van, gently and lovingly as I would have myself.  I had a really hard time letting Dave and Lucky actually leave, and he was SO patient and kind, and gave me all the time I needed to say goodbye. I spent at least 15 minutes halfway in in the rear end of Dave's van, saying goodbye to my sweetest little boy.  Dave had a schedule to keep and my neighbors were being nosy, but I didn't care and neither did Dave  and I believe that Dave is the person who instinctually understands that grief is as complex and varied as we are,  and he clearly honored mine. As far as the other variables, I found Dave's prices were very reasonable, competitive to industry standards. He's very responsive, by phone and text(which was a plus for me!) Lucky was ready to come home well before a week went by. I still haven't picked him up, partly because I'm far from the business, but probably also due to fear or some other psychological gremlin. Not once has Dave pressured me to pick up Lucky's urn. Matter of fact, I bet if I asked, Dave would probably drop by with Lucky next time he's in my area. He's THAT kind of guy! Thank you so much Dave, for bringing Lucky on his final car ride🐾♥️🐾

				I returned home after midnight early Tuesday morning to find that my AmStaff had died while I was out. I was devastated and did not know what to do. I did not know who to call. I googled and found Beloved Companions. Someone answered the call at 1 am. They learned about my needs. I finished that call and within 5 minutes Peaches called me back. She listened to me through my uncontrolled tears to learn what I needed and had affordable options. She talked me through their packages, walked me through how to order the package online, and told me what time her team would be able to pick up my boy. I was even able to break up the payments into four installments. They arrived when they said they would, at 10 am, and were so endearing, kind, and compassionate. It was very difficult for me to see Capone passed away and they handled him with such care it was comforting. They gave me a chance to say goodbye and I believed that his remains were in good hands. Everyone I interacted with from the initial call through the pick up expressed such empathy and compassion it normalized the grief I felt trying to process the fact that my life buddy had died. Thank you so much for existing, Beloved Companions. You made an already devastating event tolerable because of your care.
