Serving the Louisville and Southern Indiana areas, Faithful Companions has become the premier pet cremation service for veterinarians and private pet owners. Using the knowledge and care developed in operating a funeral home since 1930, the same loving care is given to pet owners. The loss of a pet can be devastating to many people and we understand how to help them deal with that painful loss. Our services are timely, personal, and individualized to the owner's wishes. All pets under our care are treated with respect and dignity. Each pet is recorded immediately, with our numerical Faithful ID System being our pledge to owners that the cremains returned to them are absolutely and positively identifiable as their pet. Each pet will have a number given to them that corresponds with their tag and number on the cremation certificate that is returned to the family.
Faithful Companions has always offered three types of cremation with urns available for purchase.
Private Cremation
With this selection, your pet alone is placed into the cremation chamber. Upon completion of the cremation, your pet's cremains are removed from the cremator and returned to you for transferring to an urn of your choice. You may also bury or scatter the cremains.
Individual Cremation
With this selection, your pet is one of two during the cremation. The smallest pet is placed into a stainless steel cremation pan, which is designed to keep the pets separate from one another. Upon completion of the cremation, your pet's cremains are removed from the cremator and returned to you for transferring to an urn of your choice. You may also bury or scatter the cremains.
* Most crematories do not use a cremation pan during the cremation and place multiple pets throughout the cremator. Our process ensures the cremains you receive back are definitely yours.
Communal Cremation
With this selection, multiple pets are cremated together. Cremains are not available to be returned.
