My veterinarian uses Heaven's Gate. They have always been very good, but recently we had a member of our feral colony die unexpectedly., while my vet was closed. I called the nearest pet crematorium, and I called Heaven's Gate. Heaven's Gate was less than half the price of the place in Natomas. They extended full courtesy and treated the death of a feral cat as important and sad. read more

So far, I have been extremely happy with Heaven's Gate Pet Memorial Center. The young man that helped me I believe his name was, Jason was so kind. I am now waiting to get the ashes back from my precious cat, Winchester. I loved that there was no hard sale. He showed me what they had to offer and when I said I had just had to get a new roof on my house and was having to rebuild my savings. He never said another word. Some people would just keep pushing for a sale, but Jason was very understanding he just nodded his head. When I was getting ready to leave, I had my cat covered because I couldn't look at him that way anymore, but I put my hand on the towel that had covered him and then a kiss. I told him I loved him. Jason then came over and gave me a hug and then I cried even more. That gesture met so much to me. And their prices were so much more reasonable than other places and I'm retired and on a fixed income, so this was also a big help. Now I just have to go back and pick up his ashes and that's going to be just as hard I think as leaving him there in the first place. I did decide to spend a little extra money and get his paw prints. He was a special boy and now I'm crying again as I write this. Thank you for taking such good care of me and I know my boy was handled with compassion and kindness. read more

I'm very grateful for this service. When we had to say goodbye to our dogs, the vets used the cremation services at Heaven's Gate. Our beloved girl was back home with us in two days. They have the ashes in a beautiful box, nicely wrapped in tissue. They include a candle and a heart-shaped key ring with this inscription, "No longer by your side, but forever in your heart." read more

My little dog Tater Tot unexpectedly passed away after a bad reaction to a vaccine. Of course these things happen on a weekend with vets being closed. I was not comfortable trying to preserve him at home until my vet was open so found your services on the internet. Thank you so much for being open on weekends and helping us with this process with compassion & efficiency. We were able to drop him off on a Saturday morning & got him back in a beautiful urn within a few days. It must be a rather sad job but hopefully rewarding that you make the process a little easier for those of us grieving. Thank you. read more

They are very kind and understanding. I appreciated that it didn't take more than a few days to get my pets ashes.

As difficult as it is to get a pet cremated this place is by far the most trustworthy place you can take your pet in its last moments. they are very caring and they take good care of you and your wishes. i asked them to save my beloved cats whiskers and they did just that, they even put them in a mini jar for me. i love my paw print i ordered as well, if i look closely i see a small kitty hair in it and it touches my heart seeing a small strand of hair left behind with her print. they told me 3-5 days but they had her ready in 3 which absolutely amazed me. If ever later on down my life I or somebody i know will need an animal cremated i will most definitely recommend this place. Thank you guys so much and i appreciate you guys for going above and beyond for my Tabby. read more

Everyone at Heaven's are very caring. They explain the process, offer pretty urns for your pet and are open seven days a week. Also, their prices are very affordable. I drove my little Nikki there myself as II felt it was important to follow through with Nikki's last journey with me. My little Nikki passed on due to long struggle with an illness that could not be overcome. She was 18. God bless everyone at Heaven's Gate for taking good care of my little cat, Nikki. read more

I looked for all the cremation services in my area and Heaven's Gate was the only one that fit the bill of everything I was looking for. I called to schedule to bring in my Zeus and we were helped swiftly. They have been doing this for a very long time I can tell there's a mood of being desensitized (which would be normal) but this did not take away the care they provided for my fur baby. It also did not affect the quality of service I received. It met all of my expectations. I chose them because of the stellar reviews on Google and Yelp. Like I told my sister, it's far from Sacramento but "only the best for Zeus". I was able to see Zeus one last time before he was cremated. I asked for his blanket and flowers around him to be included and it wasn't an issue at all. I didn't know that cremation takes hours and in the case of my Zeus, it took about four hours. My sister came down from Reno and offered to drive and she needed to get back since she was working the next morning which is why I opted for same day service. They offer a lot of upgrades on urns, necklaces with your fur baby's ashes, paw prints, multiple designs and engravings etc. I upgraded on everything BECAUSE I ONLY WANTED THE BEST for my Zeus. I picked the large square urn that has three sides to put photos in. However, I wished the quality of the urn was much better. I have a hard time taking the acrylic frame out because the sizing is a little off. There's very little give so one of the frame protrude just a tiny bit when putting it back in. It also is a little tight once the photos are added in. Other than that, I love that I can see Zeus on the three points of views. I upgraded with a necklace and picked one that was very pretty. It started discoloring on the back and the middle part on the flower came off so I had to glue it. I called to see if I can have it replaced and was very happy I can free of charge. I was informed that the one I picked is plated. They have stainless steels pendants for durability and I already have one picked. If you need a pet cremation service, I am confident to recommend this place. They met all my expectations regarding quality of care and service, and prices. Like I mentioned above, I only wanted the best for Zeus and they definitely delivered. read more

I cannot speak highly enough of the folks here. I have had the unfortunate need of their services a few times, and each and every time they have been the most professional caring people you could hope for. They never make you feel rushed for last good byes, and they don't upsell you. Unfortunately there comes a time we have to say goodbye to our fur babies, I'm so glad they're here to help with the transition. read more

We have used Heaven's Gate's services after the passing of our beloved pet sheep, our cat, and most recently, the sudden passing of our family dog. Each time, they have been incredibly compassionate and thoughtful every step of the way. This past time, my dog passed away very unexpectedly and they gave me lots of time to say goodbye. The options were clear and I didn't feel pushed or sold to during a sensitive time. Highly suggest this business when the need for their services arises. read more

Very kind people work here! They did play compassion and empathy during a time that is difficult for all of us. I lost my sweet dog recently. I had Heaven's Gate cremate her and they placed her ashes in a beautiful wood box with nice engraving. I highly recommend this business. read more

this review is about an experience i had in 2023! unfortunately, one of my babies passed away very suddenly (and randomly) and it just so happened to be during a weekend where literally no other place in the sacramento area was open but this one. every other crematory in sacramento itself was telling me to put my dog in the bathtub with ice until monday which i was just not willing to do. 5 stars for the fact they're open on weekends the older man that was working that day (i think maybe he's the owner) was a nice guy and easy to talk to. prices are reasonable. they also offer a ton of cute urns and memorabilia. i got my baby's paw print molded and it's still holding up today. i had a poor experience with caring pet crematory a few years ago and that's the only one open in sac i think so definitely go here read more

i wish that I did not need to write this review as it mean my beloved pet passed away. I did wan to write this so that other know about this recourse. The people here made it so easy for us to say goodbye to our pet. Their website is easy to navigate so that I knew what I wanted before we arrived and 2 days late I got the call to bring our pets cremains home. I highly recommend as i got a choice in what we needed to do for our pet and they made it all so easy. read more

The circumstances bring us here were sad as anyone facing the loss of a pet can imagine. The initial phone call was handled with care and curtesy as I had questions but had difficulty stringing my thoughts together coherently. Once we brought our little dog in we discussed what we needed and and wanted. We were offered different boxes or urns etc but we were not pushed or rushed in anyway. The gentleman reminded us of our little dogs collar and asked if we wanted the blanket back we brought him in. We did, and they bundled them together for us upon picking him up. The place is a strange building so it was easy to see, and it smelled of cinnamon which was unexpected and lovely. The pick up was easy, and it was beautifully done. read more

They did a beautiful job. Our vet used their services for our dog a few months ago. I would definitely go here again and wished to have used this place with a pet before. My ONLY suggestion would be changing the tissue paper. My dog died unexpectedly and when I got him back I was devastated that I felt like he was in some sort of "gift bag." It may just be me, but I feel like it's weird getting your pet back with that. It felt too festive in a way? Anyway, thank you for your care with my pet! read more

Our hearts are so completely filled with gratitude for the beautiful and respectful way that they handled the cremation of our precious dog, Ziggy. I called Heaven's Gate the day Ziggy was scheduled to be put to sleep. A gentleman by the name of Josh answered the phone, and he could not have been kinder or more patient as I explained that we would be bringing Ziggy in later that day. He gave me general information, including directions. When we arrived that afternoon, the walk from the car to the front door felt like the longest, most painful walk of our lives. Josh greeted us and gently guided us to place Ziggy on a blanket covered, so appropriately, with hearts. Josh walked us through the process, and helped us decide on a few details. When we had completed the necessary arrangements, Josh told us to take our time saying our goodbyes, and he quietly left us alone with our sweet Ziggy. Three days later, we got the call that Ziggy was ready to be picked up. We were completely unprepared for the beautiful details surrounding the return of Ziggy's ashes. We were presented with a small bag containing Ziggy's beautiful cremation box, a memorial candle, a card with "The Rainbow Bridge" printed on it, the certificate of cremation, and a sweet keychain that read "No longer by my side but forever in my heart". The wonderful service provided by the beautiful people at Heaven's Gate made an extremely heartbreaking situation just a tiny bit easier. Being able to bring Ziggy back home in a dignified and memorable way...there is no way to put a price on that level of service. I highly recommend Heaven's Gate, and all the wonderful souls who work there tirelessly to help people honor their beloved pets. Choose Heaven's Gate. You won't be disappointed. To Josh, thank you for your extraordinary compassion and kindness. You will never be forgotten. read more

Highly recommend Heavens Gate to everyone. I did not know of this service until I had to contact Dr Megan Dunbar from Peacefully at Home to assist with getting our sweet boy King to the Rainbow bridge. During one of my calls to Dr Megan she asked if we wanted King cremated and if we had a company in mind. No we did not. She recommended Heavens Gate and boy was she right. Dr Megan had taken King with her after the at home euthanasia to Heavens Gate. When they called to say King was ready to come home they were polite and compassionate. I showed up to a office room, full of so many possibilities to take care of your 4 legged family member. Urns, jewelry, picture frames everything, too many to list. While I waited for King, there was a young lady there with her pet in her arms making arrangements. They were so gentle with her. Answering her questions and doing all the special things she had decided in for her family member. When the gentleman came back with King he was in a beautifully decorated gift bag. I couldn't say more than thank you and got in my car and broke down. I looked inside and King was inside a wood box with his name on the front. A Keychain, a candle, a certificate for cremation and a note about the Rainbow Bridge. Awesome business with the most patient and understanding staff. Thank you for taking care of our baby boy King. read more

Today, August 19th, was our second trip to Heavens Gate in Wheatland, this time to take care of our little fifteen year old Pomeranian, Renie. Three years prior it was for her mother Mollie. We can't say enough about the outstanding quality of care from Brian and Jeff. It's obvious from the first contact on the phone with Brian until we left with our beloved's remains carefully handled by Jeff, these guys care and they do everything right to let you know they really do. The building is clean and nicely decorated, the location is super easy to find and although maybe not the most important thing to most true pet lovers, their prices are so much more reasonable than those in Sacramento you would be foolish not to come there. If you have lost a pet that meant the world to you, go see the folks at Heaven's Gate in Wheatland. You will truly be glad you did. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND Losing a DEARLY LOVED pet can be one of the hardest things to deal with, and at that time you should only be dealing with caring, compassionate people. Last Sunday we took our 15yr old Pomeranian, who had passed away the night before, to "Heaven's Gate Crematorium", in Wheatland. Brian took care of our little girl, from start to finish. He showed nothing but TRUE COMPASSION, PATIENCE and PROFESSIONALISM the whole time. Their facility is easy to find, clean and comfortable to be at. We can't emphasize enough how well we were cared for by Brian at Heaven's Gate. IF you have a beloved pet pass, and want the BEST CARE in pet cremation, we HIGHLY recommend "Heaven's Gate. In fact....they are the only facility in the Sacramento Valley area we would recommend in a heartbeat. read more

On February 13, 2024, after a disappointing, if not upsetting, call with an aquamation company scheduled to come out in another week (my 70 lb dog had already died), I awoke early and decided to search for another pet crematorium. Heaven's Gate PMC had excellent reviews, so I called to leave a message before they opened. Ryan answered at 7:15 am, and, when I said I'd call back when Heaven's Gate opened, he said he was happy to talk then. When people call early, Ryan said, it's usually important. (I've since noticed that Heaven's Gate now offers a 24 hour service.) In those moments, I cannot even express how meaningful that was, and how I breathed easier again. Ryan patiently listened as I recounted the painful call with the other company, the appointment a week away, when he came to Davis ("put him in your freezer, or at least your garage"). When I'd finished, Ryan set me up to call back in a little bit to make arrangements, when they opened and could complete forms, as Ryan had taken my call at home. This was such a different experience, a healing experience at such a vulnerable time, one I still feel in my grateful heart, though it's been four months now, that all of my animals will be under the care of Heaven's Gate after they transition. This company teaches its employees how to LISTEN, and appropriately and gently respond. By the end of our call, Heaven's Gate would be coming out later that morning, not at the best time for them, but after an important Zoom class ended--because it was the best time for me. Yes, I paid $150 more for Heaven's Gate to come to Davis. It was worth it. Then, on the day I picked up Brock's ashes, it was an hour's drive to Heaven's Gate from my home (in a very beautiful area, though). Their company was coincidentally close to the golden retriever sanctuary from which I had adopted Brock 14 years earlier. This company is exceptional, because its people are exceptional, and know loss and grief in their bones. Their products are also thoughtful. Do not hesitate to reach out to Heaven's Gate if you are in need of after-life care for your beloved pet. read more

When a pet crosses the rainbow bridge it's one of the hardest moments of your life as they were family. I called to verify prcies and was greeted with true empthay and care. When our family cat passed away Heaven's Gate took great care and provided many special touches during the process of cremation and picking up our boy. This was the cheapest option, but turned out to be a great choice due to the care and sympathy for our loss. Much more detail oriented than others. The wooden urn was carved beautifully with flowers, and Suntory's name was on the box. To our surprise a keepsake necklace, and candle to honor his memory was given to us along with a certificate of cremation and a card, crossing the rainbow bridge. This was truly done with care and much appreciated. I wish I'd of known about Heaven's Gate sooner. read more

Can't recommend this place enough. Unfortunately came in contact through the loss of my 11 year old Siberian husky. They were beyond professional and took him in Sunday afternoon. Received the ashes back a few days later in a beautiful wooden box along with a baggie with a necklace, candle as well as other gifts. I don't think their pricing is expensive and am just so grateful they were able to assist in a time of great sadness. read more

My cat passed away back in July 1 week prior to my trip to Europe. I was super busy packing and then this happened. Life is full of surprises but I'm glad we were there to be w her instead of finding out when we were overseas. Heaven's Gate made the situation easier for me. They have great customer service. They don't rush or pressure you into buying anything. I felt like my cat was taken care of there. They cremated her and placed the adhes in a wooden box. They also made a ceramic heart with her paw print in it. They added extra TLC buy providing a stationary card and also gave me a key chain that had the sweetest soothing words that brought me closure. I would definitely recommend this place! It's well worth it! read more

I'm generally a stoic guy, but losing our Angel dog has been one of the worst moments of my life. I've had other dogs before, but she was just too special to describe. A white Tibetan Mastiff, she started out already special and rare. Beyond that, she was intelligent, sweet, loving, and wise. An old soul, a sentiment shared by those who knew her. They say Tibetan Mastiffs have the souls of monks and nuns, who were a bit too mischievous. Angel certainly had that presence. She was sweet, but wouldn't tolerate misbehavior, unless it was her own. She even played pranks on us. She definitely looked after us. But more than anything, she taught us more about who she was, who we were, and the world in general. So to say she meant a lot to us is quite an understatement. Having said all of that, the care, concern, and understanding from Heaven's Gate was everything I could have hoped for. He remarked just how beautiful she was. Another common sentiment. The box is beautiful, and the lock of her fur was an unexpected, but such an appreciated surprise. Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet girl. She deserved respect, and I feel like she was treated with the honor she deserved. read more
