Private cremation
Your pet is cremated individually, never with other animals, by our CANA-certified crematory operator. The remains you receive are your pet’s alone.
-
Your pet comes home
We call you when your pet is ready. They come home in the urn you chose, with a cremation certificate. If you’d like, we’ll also add a tribute to our memorial wall.
Memorial packages
Every package includes private cremation and a cremation certificate. The difference is the urn you bring home and the keepsakes that come with it.

What families tell us
We had a very good experience with this company. Our dog passed away suddenly and Joy came out within an hour. Everything from the urn to the little poem they sent with his paw print was so special. Thank you Heavenly Gates!
Andrew and Kyle were very professional and very sincere. They gave us the time to grieve before handing Ruby over. The facility was easy to get to, clean, and very welcoming. It was comforting knowing our girl was in good hands.
Everyone associated with Heavenly Gates are pet owners who are kind, caring, and compassionate. Jacob and Amy went above and beyond, meeting me after hours. The facility is immaculate, tastefully decorated, warm, and inviting.
Remembered here
Our memorial wall honors the pets we’ve cared for. Each one was somebody’s best friend.
