We recently lost our dog of 16 years. We loved Stella more than anything and we were completely devastated. The vet asked if we wanted a private cremation with the ashes returned, which we did. They said that Faithful Companions would be handling it. After receiving the services from Faithful Companions, we will always use them in the future. They delivered Stella’s ashes back to our door in 5 days. The guy came to the door, not carry the bag a... Read More

So compassionate. The 2 men that came to the house to pick Trixie up we were kind and honored our request. The next day someone brought her home to us. Our daughters bought urns and we took Trixie back and they divided her ashes up for us and were put in a nice velvet bag. Everyone we dealt with was so nice and respectful.

I got Rex as a sophomore in college and he went everywhere with me, literally. He was my constant shadow and my best friend. Making the choice to let him go was the worst day of my life and a part of me went with him. Faithful Companion was so caring and understanding on the phone with me, we talked over options and I what I wanted for my sweet boy. They were so patient with my tears and questions. The very next morning I got a call that they wer... Read More

One of the hardest decisions in life is "knowing when the time has come". The broken heart, the emptiness, the feeling of extreme loss. Grief. When we last saw our precious Charlie in his Faithful Companion box, it was comforting to know that he would be attended to with the utmost dignity. We thank you for your commitment to that. The timeliness of taking him into your care to Kelsie bringing him home lessens the anxiety of seperation. Saying Go... Read More

How do I even begin to say thank you! We lost our Betsy completely unexpectedly April 13th. I first talked to Tom and how in the world he even could make out what I was saying with how upset I was is a miracle. Not only was he patient but so so compassionate and understanding. Ethan came to the house to get Betsy. Again the compassion and patience was out of this world. He did such a beautiful job making sure Betsy was comfortable and letting us ... Read More

My beloved Frenchie, Jack, crossed the Rainbow Bridge, Sunday 4/17 at CVETS. I was able to make arrangements while still at CVETS. Jack was delivered back to my home on Tuesday morning 4/19 in a beautiful, hand-carved wood box. I had ordered an urn from another provider, but returned it after seeing this stunning vessel. Everyone I talked to at Faithful Companion was so warm, caring and encouraging. Thank you, Mary, for your loving manner. I am ... Read More

I cannot say enough about the services that Faithful Companion provided. They were compassionate and understanding. I lost a family member, not just a pet, and they went above and beyond to let me know that they understood that. So grateful for this experience. The personalized touches and quality of the items they return to you is incredible. They made a very hard situation a little easier on my family and myself.

We had to send off out 9 year old Doberman and the Vet took care of the plans for us. When we received the remains I broke down crying. They included a print of his paws, nose, and ears. We framed it and put it next to his ashes in our living room. The fact that they included that was amazing. It's the little thing that make extraordinary businesses. Thank you for helping u through the process! Ranger would have loved the picture!

Our Bengal cat Safari, 15 years and one week old, passed on Saturday early in the morning. I was able to be on the phone with Dylan by 10 am and he stayed open until we went from Louisville KY to Indiana. We dropped him off and said our goodbyes. We picked him today and they did such a great job. So caring and professional. Thanks, guys, Safari and his family appreciate it.

Faithful Companions took care of my cat, Bitty Bit’s remains in Dec 2023.. They were extremely professional and understanding, as well as sympathetic. They even delivered him to me the following day and when he was delivered back to me in the text letting me know they were on their way, they didn’t just say “your cat” they called him by name. It made it so much more personal and heartfelt.. They are the only cremation service I will use.

I am extremely thankful for everyone at Faithful Companion. From the first phone call, I encountered nothing but caring and compassionate people. They not only took excellent care of my Fiz but of me too. This was the hardest things I've had to face but they made the process a little easier to endure.

I would like to say thank you to the staff. We lost our Sadie May yesterday 3/10, tragically and they were so great with helping us through the process. We got her at the facility close to 4:00 and they were able to get her ready for us to take home before they closed at 6:00. They went above and beyond explaining the whole process to us. They let us take our time with saying our goodbyes. That meant the world just knowing we didn’t have to wai... Read More
