Burial Services

Established in 1979 by caring pet owners, Pet Rest Gardens depicts a traditional country cemetery with modern, up to date amenities. Gone are the days of simple plywood CASKETS and hand routered name plate markers. Here you will find lovingly placed gravesite decorations throughout the seasons. MEMORIAL MARKERS capture the unconditional love and spirit of those companions interred within the well manicured grounds. The opening and closing of gravesites, once done by hand, are now handled by machinery and equipment.

But one thing has never changed. That families choose to bury their pet companions because they want to, not because they have to.

Our beautiful grounds offer dawn to dusk visitation, several sections for interment as well as a unique gravesite decoration policy.

FOR YOUR PEACE OF MIND

In accordance with the International Association of Pet Cemeteries & Crematories guidelines, Pet Rest Gardens is proud have been a part of the pilot program for pet cemeteries across the country. Since 1988 we have had a care fund in place for continued maintenance and in October 1990 a deed restriction was recorded.

Deed Restriction… The land deed to Pet Rest Gardens grounds used for interments has been restricted through Genesee County Register of Deeds so that it may never be developed or utilized as anything other than a permanent resting place for pets as a pet cemetery.

Endowed Care Fund… Permanent care fees from each pet buried are deposited into an Endowed Care fund. This fund will always generate interest monies, which will provide for the continued care and maintenance of the pet cemetery grounds.
