What some of our friends have had to say about Beloved Companions
We take great pride in helping companion families during their time of need. We are proud of what those people have to say about us and we pledge to continue to maintain your trust and respect.
They were so kind & comforting to us. So patient with us with our many questions that we had. I strongly recommend them. It was such a long day. First we went to our local vet & got bad news. Then we went to an animal hospital that had an emergency room to see if they could operate on the tumor in his mouth. Unfortunately, he couldn't be saved. So we took him out for an hour to spoil him with things to eat that he'd really enjoy then brought him back so they could peacefully cross the rainbow bridge. They waited for us to drive the hour to them. She even gave us a little time to say more goodbyes. We appreciate it more than you could possibly know.

I can not say enough good things about this service. What a wonderful caring group. From the vet , vet tech., the gentleman who picked him up, and of course the caring woman who put it all together for us. Sox is no longer in pain or being medicated twice daily. These are wonderful, caring, gentle people. Thank you all for making this process more bearable. ❤️😿

I cannot say how wonderful it was to have this agency assist our family. My parent’s beloved dog Patches passed away at home and being a larger dog I was unable to get her to the vet. My parents were unable due to their own physical limitations. I called and Peaches was wonderful on the phone and explained all the options to me in such a kind manner. Dave, who came to the home for Patches, could not have been more compassionate and supportive. He gave us as much time as we needed to say our final goodbye to Patches and was so patient and respectful with her. Thank you for your kindness during a heartbreaking time for us. We appreciate it and highly recommend your services to anyone in need.

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 was hours from reaching our new home in town when my sweet princess of 13.5 years passed peacefully in my car. Not knowing where to go I reached out to a local community on social media who unanimously recommended Beloved Companions for her after care. Very distraught and upset with how this new chapter was beginning, everyone in this company was very compassionate, kind, understanding and reasonable. I did not have to wait long for her to be returned to me and I am pleased with the work they performed. Thank you again for honoring my beloved companion

I cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us. Choosing Beloved Companions for the untimely passing of our furbaby, was the best choice I could’ve made. From speaking to a 24 hour on call operator, the lovely Peaches, to meeting with Justin, the director, it was the best service from start to finish. We were all treated with the upmost care, compassion and respect. Our pet was treated with compassion and dignity during his transition to rainbow bridge. Thank you Beloved Companions and all the staff. We appreciate you and all that you do.

We love Beloved Companions!! We have taken all six of our dogs there to be cremated after they left us. They do a great job, and they’re very caring and kind. SPECIAL THANKS to Dave for being so amazingly nice to us!! A special shout out to Peaches, tooo!!

Finding people to help you through this difficult transition is a blessing. Kindness, compassion, solidarity and company with respect is what I found in this cremation service for my sweet girl Coco. Thank you for being there for me and for patiently answering all my questions. It was hard to leave my Coco, but the sweet woman made me feel like she was in the right place. A few days later when I picked up her ashes I couldn't hold back my tears again but in the midst of my pain I felt peace thanks to Dave. I am very grateful to God for the staff who helped me. I am proud to have chosen Beloved Companion.

Recently, my beautiful little girl (my cat, Princess) passed away at home. Initially, I was extremely emotional and had no idea where to turn. However, after contacting this service, I was both relieved and reassured. Both Dave and Peaches conveyed their sincere condolences and readily understood the depth of my grief. They made the process absolutely seamless and have gone above and beyond in offering continued support and ensuring Princess arrived home safely. I highly recommend Beloved Companions—their professionalism, compassion and empathy is nothing short of extraordinary!

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.

On 12.26.24 we lost our beloved Princess and although it was a very difficult day for me and my family upon calling beloved companions they made the process smooth while we grieved the loss of our fur baby. Thank you so much for everything and for explaining the process as this was our very first time loosing a fur baby. The compassion that they have and extend is beyond appreciated during the most difficult time and process.

We had as lovely as an experience as a person can have at such a terrible time. Peaches and Justin were kind and accommodating. Peaches even kept the Avon location open a few minutes late for us to avoid further fees. Our ashes were back home in less than 48 hours, and the price felt extremely fair. We received a beautiful wooden box, a framed paw print, several additional paw prints, and other thoughtful tokens for $265. Highly recommend.

My dog was my beloved companion for 17 wonderful years so I wanted to make sure his ending was as graceful and pain free as I could possibly give him. I did my homework beforehand especially on cremation places and also on where I wanted my dog to be euthanized if it came to that. Beloved Companions in Avon CT had great reviews, and my phone calls to them to discuss plans for my dogs final day when it came was met with caring, patience, and understanding and I didn’t want to deal with anyone else but Beloved Companions. I did at home euthanasia, pickup, and cremation for my little guy, and I am so glad to report that all went smoothly without any glitches whatsoever, allowing me to focus on my beloved companion and saying goodbye, completely free of added anxiety during such a sad and difficult time. Thank you all at Beloved Companions. Toby’s mom. 🌹

I can't put into words how wonderful this place is. I unexpectedly lost my Zoey at home and called and spoke with Peaches, and through my tears she was so empathetic and kind, answered all of my questions and explained the process to me and set up my appointment with Justin who I met with the next day, he was also so empathetic and kind. I didnt feel rushed or pushed, and was allowed to have a moment with Zoey before i left. I felt like my pain was understood, which meant alot to me. I cant express how much I appreciated the kindness from these people. They made this process of cremating my pet seamless and it was quick, I had her back with me in 2 days. Theyre prices in my opinion are resonable too. I will use this place again for my other pets and will recommend to anyone looking for this kind of service.

Lost our beloved cat of 19 yrs. The staff was compassionate and caring as we dealt with the process of losing our pet. And we're willing to meet us on our terms and hours related to his passing. Not only do they offer after hour services but even offered to pickup at home. Though we met them at their offices behind Battistones. Hope you never need their services. But, if you find yourself in this position. Don't hesitate to reach out to these caring folks!!

Dave saw me on very short notice after my cat passed. Dave is very attentive and soft spoken. He was able to discuss with me my options and needs in a straightforward but caring manner. Dave, I appreciate that you were there for me during my time of need. Thank you from myself and my family.
