Pet Aquamation, also known as alkaline hydrolysis, is an innovative and environmentally friendly end-of-life solution for pets. Unlike traditional, flame-based cremation, aquamation is gentle and water-based, making it the more compassionate choice for your beloved companion.

We accelerate this process by combining gentle water flow, temperature and alkalinity to breakdown all organic material. Once the gentle process concludes, we dry and carefully collect the ashes in a memory box or urn of your choice, returning them to you in a way that provides comfort and a lasting keepsake to cherish your pet’s memory.
